Task 5: Gain Access to the Battlements

Chamber 5: Second Return to East Wing: Lower Chamber, to Chamber 6

Treasure Chest: Now that the Master Sword is filled with light, you can return to the palace’s east wing and claim the last two chests on this floor. When you’ve finished slashing the shadow clouds and picking up Rupees and Hearts from the pottery, stand on the light platform in middle of the room near its east wall after clearing the fog.

As the platform reaches a small alcove containing a clearly visible chest, run and leap onto the ledge before the platform moves south. Open the chest immediately, as you’ve reached the climax to your Heart Piece collection!

Treasure Chest #12:

Piece of Heart #45

Piece of Heart

You got a Piece of Heart! You collected five pieces and formed a new Heart Container! Piece of Heart #45 of 45

Treasure Chest: Now stand on the platform on the opposite side of the foggy lower ground, and rise to another alcove on the west side. Leap to the chest, and acquire a purple Rupee (50). When you’re ready to return, use a Clawshot and summon a platform using the two dark globes.

Treasure Chest #13:

Purple Rupee (50)

Chamber 1: Third Return to Ethereal Plateau (1F to 2F)

You’re now ready to ascend the palace tower, so head north up the central ramp. Ignore the two pots and the Twili, and concentrate on slicing at three waiting Twilit Kargaroks before they take flight. After you defeat them, part the vertical cloud with your sword and leap across to the door. There’s another Kargarok sitting to your left; smash him and the pots near the door (there are arrows inside one of them).

Chamber 8: South Palace Tower (2F to 3F)

Enter the large chamber and immediately use your sword to sweep the shadow cloud back. Take down the Twilit Keese and Vermin that head out to meet you. Clear the room of pots and reach the steps at the north side. There are two Sol Spheres here, so slay the Twilit Baba, take the first one to the cloud’s edge, part the cloud with your sword, pick up the Sphere, and place it in the circular groove. Fend off the Vermin attack, then repeat this on the other side with the second Sphere. Climb the steps that form.

At the top of the steps, smash some pots, then whack the dark globe until a light platform appears just behind it. Ride this to the ledge on the chamber’s east side, tackling the Twilit Keese on the way; then drop down and slash the Twilit Baba. You now have a difficult battle with four Zant Masks! Stay on this ledge, block the energy balls they spit, run back and forth to summon them, and spin attack; the light from your sword helps defeat them.

Treasure Chest: Make sure all four Zant Masks fall, as only then will a chest appear. Open it for a Small Key, then strike the three dark globes with a spin attack, and ride the appearing light platform to the exit door. As you travel, optionally target incoming Twilit Keese with arrows, then spin as six ambush you from above when you step off. You’re showered with Hearts!
