Giant's Hearth

The Giant's Hearth is the fifth area in Pikmin 4. It takes place just outside a camping site with a tent and fences visible in the background, and an extinguished brick fire pit and a wooden folding chair can be seen as prominent parts of the level. This area has worth of treasure, of which  is above ground.

Plot
You go to this area trying to find Nelle, a Koppaite that may be able to cure Oatchi’s tail. Once you arrive, you find Louie and Moss with a castaway who looks a lot like Alph from Pikmin 3. You follow Louie into a cave where he tries to turn the castaway into a Leafling and fails. So he starts a Dandori Challenge. He runs off with Moss and you save the castaway named Yorke (Alph's older brother) and he tells you that his friend Don Bergman may know more on where Nelle is. You find him in The Dream Home/Ultimate Testing Range/Cradle of the Beast and he pins down the exact location of Nelle in the next area.
