In the southwestern section there is also a portal to [[Subrosia]]. Above from here is where [[Link]] will find [[Moosh]][[Dimitri]], or [[Ricky]]. After Link joins up with one of the animal friends he is able to reach the portal to Subrosia.
The southern portion of Spool Swamp will differ, depending on which [[Animal Companion]] Link has. Link may find [[Dimitri]] for the first time at the east portion of the Swamp. Dimitri has been surrounded by a group of [[Moblin]]s and they will sell him to Link. Initially offering 50 Rupees, Link will have to pay a total of 80 Rupees to acquire Dimitri along with [[Dimitri's Flute]]. Using Dimitri, Link can swim along the deeper water to reach the southern portion of the Swamp.


In the Spring the swamp water becomes rapids and his hard to maneuver unless Link has Dimitri as an animal friend, otherwise Link will be unable to control where he is going and will be pulled along the rapids. If this is done with Dimitri Link will be able to obtain the Piece of Heart.
Link may also encounter [[Moosh]] for the first time. Moosh can be found at the western portion of the Swamp, where he is being surrounded and bullied by a group of Moblins. Link can save Moosh and will then acquire [[Moosh's Flute]]. Link can then use Moosh to fly over the gaps in the south central portion of the Swamp.
 
If Link has Ricky as his animal companion, his journey through the southern portion of the swamp is ready simple. Ricky can navigate the western cliff and use his whirlwind punch to get rid of any bushes that block his pathway.
 
At the southwestern corner of the Spool Swamp, Link will find the regions second Soft Soil location, this one buried beneath a rock. One screen north of this soft soil location, Link will find a [[Subrosian Portal]], leading to the land of [[Subrosia]]. It is through this portal where Link will meet up with [[Rosa]], journey to the [[Temple of Seasons]], and acquire the power of [[Summer]].
 
In the Spring the swamp water becomes rapids and is hard to maneuver through unless Link has Dimitri as an animal companion. There is a [[Piece of Heart]], located in the center of the water, but it is only accessible during Spring. Link will need to use either Dimitri or the [[Zora's Flippers]] to acquire this heart piece.
 
At the southeast corner of Spool Swamp, there is a cave that is unreachable during the [[Spring]], [[Summer]], and [[Autumn]]. However, if Link comes here during [[Winter]], the tree branches will fall, allowing Link to reach the cave. A simple [[Bomb]] blows open the cave and inside Link will find a [[Treasure Chest]] containing the [[Square Jewel]]. This is one of the four required Jewels needed to enter the [[Tarm Ruins]]. In a [[Linked Game]], the Square Jewel will be replaced with 100 Rupees.

He is found during the [[Summer]] when the water has receded, revealing a staircase. As soon as Link speaks with the Old Man, this triggers the side quest to acquiring the [[Red Ring (Oracle Games)|Red Ring]]. Four [[Golden Beast]]s will appear throughout the [[Overworld]]. One of these beasts is the [[Golden Octorok]] and it will appear at the southwest corner of the Spool Swamp.
