After acquiring the [[Power Bracelet]], [[Link]] is able to journey to the north portion of [[North Horon]]. After battling [[Blaino]] at [[Blaino's Gym]], Link acquires [[Ricky's Gloves]], which he can then give to [[Ricky]]. Using Ricky, Link can travel through the [[Holodrum Plain]] on his way to [[Spool Swamp]].{{Ref|OoS|676|[[Ricky]]}}

When [[Link]] first arrives at the Spool Swamp, he can immediately make his way to the northwest corner of the area where he will find the entrance to Poison Moth's Lair. The dungeon entrance is marked by a carving of a moth into the rock wall. Before Link can enter the dungeon, he will need to traverse to the southern portion of Spool Swamp. Link begins this journey by acquiring the [[Floodgate Key]] from the [[Floodgate Keeper's House]]. Using this key, Link opens up the Floodgates, giving him access to the southern portion of Spool Swamp.

Link will need help from whichever [[Animal Companion]] he has to journey through Spool Swamp, whether it be Ricky, [[Dimitri]], or [[Moosh]]. Link will find a [[Subrosian Portal]] where he can journey to [[Subrosia]]. After going on a date with the [[Subrosian]] [[Rosa]], Link makes his way to the [[Temple of Seasons]] where he powers up his [[Rod of Seasons]] with the power of [[Summer]].

There are several new enemies that appear within Poison Moth's Lair. The first of which is a [[Spiked Beetle]], which Link will need to use his [[Shield]] to flip over, revealing its soft belly.{{Ref|OoS|1172|[[Owl Statue]]}} Link will also encounter [[Arm-Mimic]]s, which as their name suggests, will mimic all of Link's movements. These exact enemies were deadly in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening|Link's Awakening]]'', doing three full hearts of damage. However, they have been toned down considerable in ''Oracle of Seasons'' and aren't much of a threat.

The puzzles found in Poison Moth's Lair are also a bit more complicated, building off of previous dungeons. While earlier dungeons had simple block or pot pushing puzzles, there are a pair of more intense puzzles of this nature in the dungeon. One such puzzle involves Link pushing a jar across a room onto a floor switch, causing a nearby door to open. Another, involves Link pushing a series of colored block statues to match an identical pattern in the room. In an early room, Link will have to push a series of [[Roller]]s using the [[Power Bracelet]], similar to what he needed to do in Snake's Remains.

After Link acquires the dungeon item, the [[Roc's Feather]], the item is put to use with some puzzles. Simple traversal is requiring using Roc's Feather by jumping across platforms or to moving platforms. Later in the dungeon, Link will encounter [[Trampolines]], which Link can use Roc's Feather on them to leap up to the floor above.{{Ref|OoS|1173|[[Owl Statue]]}} In some rooms, Link will need to first push the Trampoline to an area with a whole in the ceiling before jumping up to the higher floor.

In addition to the usual [[Dungeon Map]], [[Compass]], and [[Boss Key]], Link will find two [[Small Key]]s within the dungeon. There are also three optional [[Treasure Chest]]s within the dungeon, one containing some [[Bomb]]s, one with some [[Rupee]]s, and another with a [[Gasha Seed]].

[[Mothula (Oracle of Seasons)|Mothula]] is a fast-flying Moth that serves as the dungeon boss. Mothula will spawn smaller moths and send them out towards Link. These small creatures are easily defeated with simple sword slashes. Mothula will also fly around the room at a fast pace, shooting fireballs towards Link. When Mothula sits still, it will creature a circle of fireballs around itself.

If Link falls down during the battle, he will have to use the [[Trampoline]] to jump back up to the boss room, restarting the battle in the process. After enough sword slashes, Mothula will be defeated. After defeating the boss, Link will get a [[Heart Container]], as well as the third [[Essences of Nature|Essence of Nature]], the [[Bright Sun]].
