The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess HD eGuide Dungeon 8: Palace of Twilight

Task 6: Obtain the Big Key

Chamber 9: Palace Battlements (3F)

Step onto the palace battlements, where you meet a flock of Twilit Kargaroks. Run west to the balcony, and slash with your sword; bring down a Messenger (you don’t need to defeat more than one), and then work on the Twilit Kargaroks. The pottery contains only arrows, no Hearts. Run the battlements, looking for them resting on the parapets; then ZL target and slash them. Be patient, and you’ll eventually slice all six of them.

Treasure Chest: Now to find the treasure chest that’s hidden at the top of a series of medallion hooks. Turn east, and run directly at the wall of shadow cloud, parting it with your sword and leaping into the narrow ledge behind. Defeat the sitting Twilit Kargaroks, then look up for a medallion. Use your Clawshot and work your way from north to south, bounding up the wall until you reach this ledge.

Treasure Chest #15:

Big Key

Big Key

You got the Big Key! Use it to gain access to the lair of this dungeon’s boss.

You must now attempt to leave the battlements, but a locked door that requires a Small Key blocks your way. Run west, to the battlement platform’s edge, and whack the dark globes. Ride the light platform to this southern ledge, leaping off to defeat the Zant Mask. This summons more Masks back on the battlements.

Treasure Chest: Use the globes on the ledge to summon the light platform back to the main battlements, where three other Zant Masks have arrived. Engage them all. When the last one tastes the light, a treasure chest appears to the north. Open it up and take the Small Key. Use it to open the door in the room’s northeast corner.

Treasure Chest #16:

Small Key

Small Key

You got a Small Key! This opens a locked door, but only in this area.
