"Much has been written about the influence of Shintoism in The Legend of Zelda. The ubiquitous Koroks are one of many examples. Koroks are tiny spirits protected by a greater one, The Great Deku Tree. Koroks can appear under many different circumstances—a difficult trek completed, a stone unturned. Because finding Koroks helps players expand their inventory, players are inclined keep their eyes open, and by extension are more aware of the world around them.
Spirits in this game—both great and small—illustrate how the divine resides in unexpected places, and awareness of their presence is a mark of wisdom." https://image.nostr.build/6059cb6e67840584b2316ae4be43b4243f660b9d47cffef67dbbe12b1d1f5be1.jpg #bookstr
