The Magic Hags' Potion Shop is a location in Majora's Mask.[citation needed][note 1]

Features and Overview[]

Owned by the sorceress sisters Koume and Kotake, it is located in the Southern Swamp. It opens from 6 AM to 6 PM,[2] or all day in Majora's Mask 3D. At first, Kotake will only have the Red and Green Potions for sale, but if Link brings her a Mushroom, she will be able to make and start selling the Blue Potion.[3]

The shop itself is shaped like a giant kettle, painted red and suspended on a high platform above a small lake. Kotake generally serves customers in the shop while Koume gathers ingredients, such as Mushrooms, in other areas of the swamp.[4] During the three days that Link repeats in Termina, Koume is attacked by the Skull Kid and is immobilized in the Woods of Mystery.[5] If Link encounters her, he can report her status to Kotake in return for a Red Potion,[6] which he then can use to revitalize Koume. However, if Link does not rescue the hag before a certain time, Kotake will enter the woods on her broomstick in order to locate her missing sister, and Link will be unable to purchase Potions from the shop.

Notes

  1. The Magic Hags' Potion Shop is referred to as Kotake's Potion Shop in The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask — Official Perfect Guide by Versus Books.[1] However, as this contradicts the name given in Majora's Mask, it is not considered Canon.

  6. "What's that?!? The Skull Kid got to Koume?!? That's ridiculous... If it's just the Skull Kid, then what harm could he possibly do? Oh!! Well, if that's true, then take this potion to her... This isn't good..." — Kotake (Majora's Mask)
