Items to find: Entrance to Gerudo Fortress
This area can be found to the far west in Hyrule Field. To get across
the broken bridge, whip Epona a lot and she'll fly over the large gap.
Another way is to use the Longshot on the circle that is on the little
piece of cloth that is above the bridge. Explore this area and you can
find two Heart Pieces (one behind the waterfall that is feeding the
river, and one on a ledge in the canyon; just drop down to get them).
According to the boss carpenter, all of his workers have left to the
Fortress because, as they said "...working's not cool!" So, continue on,
past the tent, and you'll reach...

Items to find: Four Carpenters, Gerudo Membership Card
Go up and around and let a guard see you and you'll be locked up in a
jail cell. Look above the room to see a little notch in the doorway -
use your Longshot to pull yourself up there and you'll be looking down
on the area. Look straight down and you'll see a doorway to the
left...but there is a guard down there. If you walk in front of her line
of vision you will be put back in the cell. There are three main ways to
get past these. The easiest it to just peg them with an arrow from your
Fairy Bow, they will pass out and never wake up. Another is to stun them
with your Longshot (they will turn blue like an enemy) and then run up
to them and slice them with your sword. Or...find a way around them!
Whatever you do, drop down and go through the door directly to your left
(on solid earth).
Talk to the man in the cell to get the story of why they are locked
up...then you'll face a (nice looking) Gerudo Guard! She has dual
swords, and she can do moves with them that will make you wet your
pants! Heck, they even double as a shield. The best way to get past this
tough enemy is to Z-target (obviously) and circle around until she does
a lunge, but then sidestep and do a lunge of your on (Z + A). Another
good way is to get far away from her (but not so far so you break the
lock), then she'll run towards you, then you can sidestep and she'll be
facing AWAY from you - commence hacking. If you get hit a few times
you'll be captured again, so don't fool around! Once she is defeated she
will run away, but not before dropping a Small Key - use this to open
the cell. Talk to him and he'll say some more stuff, yada yada, then
exit through the exit.
Go to Link's left here, through the tunnel. Once inside, head right and
watch the guard until she goes around the corner, then quickly run down
the hall and turn into the first turn you come to (which is on the
right-hand side of the wall). Go around the all and defeat the guard
there with an arrow, then go through the door she was guarding. Another
cell...it will be exactly as before. Get the key, open the door, then
continue on. In this area you should see some vines going down over the
wall, climb down them and go through that door. Another cell and another
beauty to hack to bits. Rescue the confused carpenter, then exit through
the door you came in. Climb up the vines on the wall and go through the
door to Link's left.
Carefully sidestep around the corner and...ow! Two guards are making
their rounds in this small room. Just use a few arrows to take them out.
Just don't be too quick to continue, another one is in the nearby hall.
If you're in the room and you see her coming, simply get behind
something and press R to duck - voila! You're hidden. Anyways, from
where you came in, go across and up the ramp, then through the door.
Drop down to the lower area, which is to LINK'S right, then go through
the door. Oh, before entering, you can get the Heart Piece by grappling
to the large chest on the roof (use the Longshot, obviously). Anyways,
go through the door. Quickly roll into the box in front of you, then
cock your Fairy Bow and get ready to knock out another guard who will be
coming around the corner any second. Go forward and save the fourth
Carpenter!
A woman will come in, and since she thinks you have such great thieving
skills, she'll hand over the Gerudo Membership Card, which will allow
you to wander about without being hassled! Exit back outside.
This area has a lot of fun games to play, so I would stick around and
play some (especially the Horse Archery game, you can get there by going
to the path behind the Fortress; you'll need Epona to play though. The
prize for 1000 points is a Heart Piece, and 1500 grants you a 50 arrow
quiver!). You can retrieve the Ice Arrows by going into the Gerudo
Training Grounds. This is not needed to complete the game, however. Once
you're done with your fun (that was not intentional, I swear!) walk on
over to the large gate. Climb up the ladder that's next to it and talk
to the person up there, she'll open the gate for you.

Items to find: Entrance to Spirit Temple, "Requiem of Spirit"
There are two main ways to get over the river of sand. 1) Use the
Hoverboots or 2) Get on top of the box and use the Longshot on the box
opposite the river. Then just follow the long line of flags. It's easier
to do this in the middle of the day, as it's MUCH easier to see where
they are. Follow it until you see a stone block, then read the little
note there. Use your Lens of Truth and look around, you'll notice a
strange Poe...follow her. She'll wander the desert for a few minutes,
seemingly going no where. After a bit of this she'll lead you to the
entrance of the Spirit Temple. Walk near it, then a little bit away and
then Sheik will return to teach you, yeah you guessed it, another song.
This time it's the Requiem of Spirit, which will allow you to warp to
the entrance of the Spirit Temple anytime.
Play the Prelude of Light to return to the Temple of Time. Go inside and
travel back seven years...............Now, as young Link, play the
Requiem of Spirit to warp to the Spirit Temple.

Items to find: Map, Silver Gauntlets
Go up the stairs and talk to the woman on the left, it's Nabooru!
Eventually she'll tell you to go retrieve the Silver Gauntlets, since
she's too big to fit through the small hole. Go in. Kill the Keese and
the Armos Statue to un-lock the doors; go through the one on the left.
Wow! You have to fight a Stalfos, as a kid! They look huge! After that's
defeated, destroy the Flaming Green Skull by firing a Deku Seed at it
with your Slingshot when it's flame goes out. See the Diamond Object
across the chasm? You'll have to hit that with your Boomerang...that's
easier said than done. You'll have to be in the right place. When you do
hit it a bridge will form. Cross it, and exit through the door.
Kill both Anubises by using Din's Fire, or hitting the switch and making
them hit the fire that appears, then exit. Collect the easy Silver
Rupees to make part of the grating fall to form a bridge to the next
area. Either use a Deku Stick on the already lit torch or Din's Fire,
but just light the two torches there and a chest will drop down. Inside
is a Small Key. Go through the door to return to the area where the
Armos statue was. Go through the small hole in the wall and un-lock the
door. Destroy the Skulltulas on the wall with your Slingshot, then climb
up it. In the next room, kill everything. Then hit the Diamond Object to
receive 10 Bombchus! Z-target the boulder on the wall, then let one go!
If you're aim is true it will hit the boulder, explode, some light will
come out, hit the sun icon, then the door will open, revealing the exit
to this room.
Push the Armos Statue over the edge so it lands on the switch, un-
locking the door. Before going through, though, fall down and walk up to
the altar with two torches. Use Din's Fire to light them both and a
chest will appear, inside is the Map! Climb the stairs and go through.
Go up the stairs to enter another room. First off, kill those damn
Beamos! All it takes is one bomb (Bombchus work very well). Then,
collect the Silver Rupees using little steps. When you do, one of the
torches will become lit. Use a Deku Stick and light all of the torches,
you'll receive a Small Key. Then push the gray block with the sun icon
on it into the sunlight, this will open up the exit door. Go up the
stairs and un-lock that door.
Fight the Iron Knuckle until it goes bye bye. Then go through the door,
and open the chest...for...the Silver Gauntlets! Then you'll witness
Nabooru being captured by the two Witches. Now return to the Temple of
Time and get the Master Sword to warp seven years into the
future..........Now play the Requiem of Spirit to warp to the entrance
of the Spirit Temple.

Items to find: Compass, Mirror Shield, Spirit Medallion
Go up the stairs and turn right. Just look at that huge stone! Now that
you have the Silver Gauntlets you can push it forward so it falls into
the gap. Kill the Beamos with a Bombchu, then hit the Diamond Object on
the ceiling with the Longshot. Go through the left door. Defeat the
Wolfos, then play that song you always play when you're on a Triforce
when you're on the Triforce! A chest will drop down nearby, use the
Longshot on it to get there. Open it up to find the Compass. Now return
to the previous room and go through the right door this time.
Collect all of the Silver Rupees while avoiding boulders! It's so
simple, it's pretty pathetic. The door will un-lock and inside you'll
find a nasty Like Like and a Small Key. Return to the room with the
Beams and the Diamond Object and open up the locked door. Now run past
the Like Like and climb the wall behind him. At the top, use the Lens of
Truth to find the invisible Floormaster. Defeat him, then push the large
lightbulb thingie (stand next to the wooden handles and it should
appear) so the light hits the sun icons, one of them will release a
Ceiling Master, so be careful! If you hit the right one the exit will
open.
Ignore the Armos Statue and run up stairs. See that huge statue in the
middle of the room? Look at her left hand, it has a Triforce Symbol on
it. Use the Hoverboots to get over there, then play that one song...you
know...Zelda's Lullaby you slack jawed yokel! =) A chest will drop on
her right hand. You can JUST barely get to it with the Longshot, you
have to stand on the very edge of it's hand. Inside is a Small Key. Now
drop down and use the Longshot target to get back to the main path. Run
up stairs and un-lock that door.
Destroy all of the enemies in this room to un-lock the door. The Beamos
is easy, and the Anubises can be put down with Din's Fire or Fire
Arrows. However, if you want to do it the way they intended it to be,
hit the switch and run so they hit the fire curtain that appears. Over
one of the gaps, Navi turns green: Play the Song of Time to cause a Blue
Block to appear. Step on it and one of the Anubises will hit the fire.
The switch in the next room will not stay down, so pester an Armos
Statue and let it follow you. It should eventually stumble on the
switch, giving you just enough time to run through the exit. Run up the
stairs...now you'll fight another Iron Knuckle. Your prize is the Mirror
Shield, which will allow you to bounce back magical attacks and light.
Return to the room where you had to trick the Armos Statue. Bounce the
light from the window onto the sun icon. The door will be un-locked.
Inside is a Small Key. Use it to un-lock the door in the room before
this.
Kill the two Beamos with whatever Bombchus you have left, then gaze up
at the moving wall. This COULD be hell on earth (er...Hyrule) but you
have the Longshot, and you can just hook the uppermost wall and simply
pull yourself up there. Go through the door. Stand on the Triforce
Symbol and play that one song...then go through the open door.
Kill the Torch Slugs, they're so annoying! Now, all the doors in this
room are fake, but you must destroy one of them. It's the one to the
left of the flame covering the treasure chest. behind it is an eyeball,
peg it with an arrow. This will cause another ice block to appear in
front of the one that is above the chest with the flame. Use the
Longshot target to pull yourself up there. Hit the switch to extinguish
the flame. Inside the colorful chest is the Boss Key. Now exit the room
and follow the hallway, go through that door.
To open this door you'll have to hit the Diamond Object...but it's
behind some bars. Simple! Do a lunge (Z + A) and it'll go down, opening
the door. Run inside and destroy all of the enemies. Now, go to where
the light bulb statue thingy is. To the left of it, on the wall, is a
large rock. Bomb it. If you don't have any bombs, light the previous sun
icon for some. Once that rock is down, kill the enemies there. Now we're
on the other side of bars, with the Diamond Object, looking in on the
previous room. Turn the light bulb statue thingy so it's facing there.
Now, go to the first light bulb thingy...shine that down the secret
passage you bombed so it hits the second light bulb. Return to that
room.
Now the light should be reflecting off the large white circle and onto
the floor with the chains. Use this reflected light on the sun icon and
the floor will lower itself in front of that giant statue from a few
rooms ago. The light should still be reflecting itself on the
ground...reflect it on the face of the statue and it will, eventually,
melt off. Use the Longshot to get over there, and open the Boss Door.
If you want to get back to the boss quickly (when you die you start at
the start of the dungeon...duh), stand on the chained platform and look
to your right, and down. Longshot to the chest down there. Behind it is
a rusted switch, hammer it with the Megaton Hammer. Now, a door near
here, on the bottom level of the Statue, will open. Go in there and push
the large blocks as far as they will go. Now, at the end is a face
block. Smash this down with your hammer and you will have created an
elevator that you can easily use to return to the statue area...To
return to the Chained Platform, use the chains as a Longshot target.
When you go through the Boss Door you'll be forced to fight an Iron
Knuckle. It turns out to be a brainwashed Nabooru! After the cinemas, go
behind that door and climb the platform to start out the fight...
It turns out that Nabooru is the Spirit Sage, and she'll squeeze her
power into the SPIRIT MEDALLION.
. . . -/\- -=- YOU GOT ALL SIX MEDALLIONS! -=- -/\- . . .
Use the Prelude of Light to go to the Temple of Time where you will
receive the Light Arrows, which are vital to your quest. You'll also
find out who Sheik REALLY is...I won't say, but let's just say it's not
a "he" :)
(Note: Now go complete all the mini-games, stock up on weaponry, finish
the trading sequences, find all the Heart Pieces, get all the magic
powers, and do all the secrets in the secret section...do everything to
prepare yourself for the final level...the end to this awesome game...)

///////////////////////////// GANON'S CASTLE \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\
////////////////////////////------------------\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\
Items to find: Golden Gauntlets, Final Boss, Zelda, Cool Ending
You must destroy each barrier that is feeding the main force field,
blocking your path. There are six rooms to go in, each correlating to
one of the Medallions. Here they are, in no particular order.
The best way is to go around the room is in a counter-clockwise fashion:
Forest Barrier - Water Barrier - Shadow Barrier - Fire Barrier - Light
Barrier - Spirit Barrier
FOREST BARRIER:
In the first room, stand on the center platform and use Din's Fire to
light those torches, then use a Fire Arrow to hit the one above the
door. It will un-lock. You can also get a Rupee Chest by killing all of
the enemies.
You have to collect all of the Silver Rupees, above a bottomless pit,
with fans all around. Go to your left, you'll see a fan. Use it with the
Hoverboots to get to the platform near the Beamos. Z-target it, then
hurl a bomb at it. It should explode, making this room a lot easier.
Float down and hit that switch to activate a Longshot target on the
previous platform, allowing you to get the Rupee. The last one is on a
small pillar, with a fan right in front. Wait for it to die down, then
quickly get over there! If you're slow it will start up again, use your
Iron Boots to stop from falling off. Go through the next door.
Aim at the Forest Barrier (the green ball in the center of the energy)
with your Fairy Bow and peg it with a Light Arrow. Saria will awaken and
destroy the Forest Barrier.
SPIRIT BARRIER:
You have to collect Silver Rupees. This is actually rather easy, as
there are no pits or anything to hinder your way, just a ton of
switchblades. For the ones bouncing off the Armors Statues, pull the
statue away and it will have enough room to bounce back and fourth
slowly, allowing you to get the Rupee without getting hurt. Also, one is
in the center of the room, up high. You'll need to kill the Beamos with
a bomb, then use the Longshot target to pull yourself up to it. When
they are all collected the door will un-lock.
Kill those stupid Torch Slugs, they are too annoying and might mess you
up. If you don't have any Bombchus with you, just hit the Diamond Object
through the bars (you have to do a lunge, Z + A, to get your sword to
connect) and a chest will fall down, inside are twenty of these mouse-
like contraptions. Send one over the wall, at the farthest Diamond
Object. If your aim is true it will explode on it, opening the door.
Now, look up. You'll see that a part of the ceiling is covered in
spider-web, and there isn't a torch in sight, plus you can't use Deku
Sticks as an Adult! Just whip out your Fire Arrows and hit it. Light
will beam in. Use your Mirror Shield to bounce the light on the correct
Sun Icon (all the others will cause a Ceiling Master to be dropped on
you).
Aim at the Spirit Barrier (the orange ball in the center of the energy)
with your Fairy Bow and peg it with a Light Arrow. Nabooru will awaken
and destroy the Spirit Barrier.
SHADOW BARRIER:
First, use the chest on the platform to the left (of when you enter) as
a Longshot target, inside are some Rupees. Pull yourself back to the
entrance, then use the torch on the right (of where you enter) to pull
yourself there. If you look across the chasm closely, you'll see a Like
Like. When it's near the ledge, hook it and use it as a Longshot target.
Kill it. Now, the only way that I know of to get to the next platform is
to use your Hoverboots, take a running jump, then right before the
ledge, leap, then Hoverboots will take effect. You'll just BARELY make
it, but you will. Use the Lens of Truth to find the hidden path to the
switch. It's rusted, so you'll need to use your Megaton Hammer. That
will open up the exit, but there's one more thing to do. Use your Lens
of Truth to see another invisible path, use your Hoverboots to get to
the second switch. It will drop a giant chest to where the Like Like
was, use that as a Longshot target. Inside are the Golden Gauntlets!
These will allow you to lift MASSIVE pillars. Ok, now exit (you'll need
to take a running leap to clear the hole in the invisible path).
OR...........(better stragedy below)
Look to your left as you enter and grapple to the small chest using your
Longshot, inside you'll find some Rupees. Return to the entrance via the
Hookshot target there, then look to your right. You should see a
platform with a torch on it. Draw your Bow and Arrow and peg the torch
with a Fire Arrow, it will light. You can also use it as a Longshot
target and use Din's Fire, but it will be more difficult in the long
run. Upon being set on fire, several platforms will appear, forming a
bridge to the island with the Like Like. Quickly run/jump across,
watching the patterns of the Flaming Green Skull so it won't knock you
off into the abyss below, and you'll reach the Like Like. Stun him with
the Longshot, then slash him with the sword a couple of times. Try not
to get eaten, or else he'll spit you over the edge (NOT GOOD!). Ok, use
your Lens of Truth to find an invisible path to goes to a platform
below, it has a switch on it. Use your Megaton Hammer to activate it.
This will open up the exit. Get back to the Like Like Island, and look
to the exit, and peg the torch there with a Fire Arrow. Once it lights,
small platforms will drop down to a switch. Use them to get there. Upon
activation, a large chest will drop down onto the Like Like Island...but
you can't get there, you don't have enough time. So instead, use it as a
Longshot target to get back. Open it to find...THE GOLDEN GAUNTLETS! Now
you can lift really heavy stuff. Use the torch by the exit as a Longshot
target to pull yourself to the exit. Voila!
Aim at the Shadow Barrier (the purple ball in the center of the energy)
with your Fairy Bow and peg it with a Light Arrow. Impa will awaken and
destroy the Shadow Barrier.
WATER BARRIER:
It should be called the Ice Barrier...First, destroy all of the Ice
Enemies to open the exit. Then bottle some Blue Fire (there's a torch of
it in the center of the room, you'll first have to bust the icicles) and
use it to melt the Red Ice covering the exit. Re-fill, you'll need it in
the next room.
This is hard to explain, but I'll try my best. Push the block FARTHEST
from the entrance into the hole. You do this by shoving it into the rock
near it, then right into the hole. Now, push the first one (nearest to
you) into the 1st rock (nearest to you) then the next. Now get behind it
and shove it into the wall, where the Red Ice is. If you're confused
there are some good GIFs of it at Gamefaqs (I think...). Now, melt the
ice with your Blue Fire, and hit the rusted switch with your Megaton
Hammer. You don't need any blocks to escape, just climb up to the door.
Aim at the Water Barrier (the blue ball in the center of the energy)
with your Fairy Bow and peg it with a Light Arrow. The sexy Princess
Ruto will awaken and destroy the Water Barrier.
FIRE BARRIER:
Have you ever tried this without the Hoverboots? Kinda challenging!
Although it's only one room, the Fire Barrier is one of the hardest. You
have to collect Silver Rupees above lava (the kind that resets the room
and takes away a heart; like a bottomless pit). First off, put on your
Goron Tunic, or else you'll only have 2:00 before being scorched to
death. The first few are pretty simple, but then it gets tough. Lift the
giant pillar (you must have the Golden Gauntlets for this) and it will
create an island on the other side. Under the pillar is a Silver Rupee.
Now, you first need to get to the island with the Torch Slug. DO NOT use
the Longshot target! It's not at the right angle; when you get there
you'll fall off. Instead, use your Hoverboots (make sure the Slug isn't
near the ledge or he'll push you off). Now, kill the Slug and get the
Rupee. Un-equip your Hoverboots, slip into your Kokiri Boots, then jump
on the pillar you threw, then get the final Rupee. Even if you do fall
in the lava now, the door will still be open (if you collected them all,
that is). Longshot to the exit.
Richard Says:
If you wear your Hover Boots in the room, the main platform will *not*
start to sink - this makes it all a lot less frantic!
To get to the Slug island easily...Longshot to the exit platform from
the central sinking bit, the stand on the edge (change out of your Hover
Boots for safety!) then Longshot to the target on the slug platform - if
you wait until the slug is out of the way this is easy.
Aim at the Fire Barrier (the red ball in the center of the energy) with
your Fairy Bow and peg it with a Light Arrow. Darunia will awaken and
destroy the Fire Barrier.
LIGHT BARRIER:
To open the door for this you'll have to lift the huge pillar with the
Golden Gauntlets. Now, use your Lens of Truth to see the invisible Keese
and Skulltulas. Kill them all and a chest will appear, inside is the
Small Key that will un-lock the exits. If I were you, I wouldn't bother
with the chests around the room...they are either fake and it will sap
your health, or are pathetic items (5 arrows, 5 Rupees).
Now get ready for one of the hardest things yet...Stand on the Triforce
Symbol and play Zelda's Lullaby. Whew, that sure was difficult. Open the
chest that falls down, get the Small Key, and exit.
You have to collect all of the Silver Rupees in under 60 seconds.
There's one in each aclove, two in the central tower, and one on top. To
reach that one you'll need to Longshot to the target above it. The next
room should have the Light Barrier, but it doesn't. Use your Lens of
Truth to find the passage that will lead to it...
Aim at the Light Barrier (the yellow ball in the center of the energy)
with your Fairy Bow and peg it with a Light Arrow. Rauru will awaken and
destroy the Light Barrier.
CENTRAL TOWER:
With each of the barriers destroyed, the central force field has no
energy to power it, and thus disappears. Now go in the Central Tower.
Run up the flight of stairs, you don't get anything for defeating all of
the Keese. Now you will fight two Dinolfos, a supped up version of the
Lizalfos. Use the same techniques and they'll go down in no time. The
door will un-lock, allowing you to go up another flight of stairs. At
the top you'll do battle with two Stalfos for the Boss Key. Grab it,
then continue. At the top you'll fight two Iron Knuckles. Easy enough.
Up the flight of stairs...organ music...getting
louder...............long flight of stairs......big door.......
See the Boss Section for this fight.
ESCAPE FROM THE CASTLE:
Like Zelda said, with his last breathe, Ganondorf is trying to crush
Zelda and you by collapsing the castle. You have 3:00 to escape, and you
don't have much time to waste! Just follow Zelda, she'll open up gates
and stuff for you. However, about halfway she'll be surrounded by flames
and you'll have to fight two Stalfos...better do it quick! =) At the
very end is a ReDead. Just stun it with your Longshot, then exit. Watch
as it blows up! Then, after hearing the strange sounds, go up to the
ruins...
AND BEYOND...:
After an awesome cinema, which I thought was very well done, you will
fight the main boss of the entire game, GANON. This is the most
impressive (visually, audio-wise, etc.) moment I've ever seen in this
entire game! Beat this mammoth beast and you will be awarded an ending.
It could've been better, but hell, at least you don't get a friggin'
cake and a "Thank you" screen >=)
...Congratulations...

5) GERUDO TRAINING GROUNDS
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ah, yes, the extra dungeon that most people skip until they beat the
game. Contrary to popular belief, you can get to the Ice Arrows in the
maze of locked doors no matter what path you take. So, here is the most
detailed guide to getting every single key on the Internet, period.

Entrance
KEY ONE:
Go through the left door as you come in from Gerudo's Fortress. Go
through the door that is in the Lion's Mouth, this is the start of the
Trials. You will face two Stalfos on a sandy area along with a
switchblade, and you have only 1:00 to kill them both. Try to keep the
fight out of the sand, since it slows you down a tad. Once they are both
killed a chest will drop down on the red mat, inside is a Small Key!
Head through the door behind it.
KEY TWO:
This room is a maze with a lot of fire curtains, along with two holes
that spew out an infinite amount of boulders. The Key is not in here,
but the exit is barred, so you'll need to collect all the Silver Rupees
to open it (and you only get 1:00, so make it snappy). One is at the top
of where you enter, use the Longshot to grapple yourself there. Another
one is near the exit, again, use the Longshot target. You can see one,
but a fire curtain is blocking it, so you'll need to find another path
that goes around, avoid the boulders, and grab it! The last two are by
the second boulder hole, one under it and another near the cliff. Now,
use the Longshot targets to exit this room.
In this room you will fight two White Wolfos and two normal Wolfos. Make
the fight shorter by using a powered up Spin Slash! When they're all
dead a chest will appear, inside are some arrows. Now, the door in here
is FAKE and will hurt you if you attempt to open it. See that huge gray
block in the wall? If you have the Silver Gauntlets (found in the Spirit
Temple) you can move it out of the way. But oh no, the door is barred!
Return to the Wolfos area and use your Lens of Truth, you will find an
invisible tunnel above the fake door. Use your Longshot to get up there,
then trigger the switch. Now the door is un-locked, so go back and enter
it (duh).
Inside this room, which is a dead-end, are three Like Likes! Stun them
with the Longshot then jab them to death. The chest on the altar is FAKE
and will freeze you if you try to open it. The chest in the hole has
some Rupees, and when you kill all the Like Likes another chest will
appear, it has a Golden Rupee (worth 200!). Use the Lens of Truth to
find an invisible chest, inside is a Key!
KEY THREE:
Return to the room where you battled the Wolfos. Go back into the secret
tunnel and head into the door there. Go along the ledge to your right
and you'll find a barred door...You'll hear a voice say "Blind the eyes
of the statue!" So, drop down to the large statue and shoot each of its
eyes with an arrow. The barred door will un-lock, and a chest will drop
down, it has the third Key.
KEY FOUR:
Now that the barred door is un-locked you can go through...but you can't
get back unless you fall into the lava to appear from where you came in
or use the Scarecrow's Song. Inside is a chest on some grating...inside
is the fourth Key!
KEY FIVE:
Go back into the statue room and drop down to the statue, look at the
wall and you'll spot a door with a Longshot target near it, so get over
there. In this room is a small chest with fire around it, several large
statues, and a lot of baddies! First off, kill all the creatures.
Besides opening up the exit, you'll get a chest with some arrows inside.
Now, use the Megaton Hammer to knock down the statues. One will have an
eyeball inside, peg it with an arrow to open up the entrance (just in
case you want to go back to something). Another will have a switch, it
will stop the flames...for a limited time. So quickly go over to the
chest and open it, inside is the fifth Key!
KEY SIX:
Exit the room and you'll be in a lava place with a few Silver Rupees. To
get the one over your head, use the Longshot target. Two are found on
platforms, and the last is being covered in fire. Using your Hoverboots,
you can get to a distant island which has a switch, it will put the fire
out for a few seconds. When all the Rupees are collected, both exits
will be open. However, don't go anywhere yet! On the right side of the
room (from the entrance), you'll notice that Navi keeps turning
green...play the Song of Time and a few Blue Blocks will appear. Climb
them and you'll find a lonely Key on a mat. NOTE: If you take the right
path in the maze of locked doors, a side path will take you to this key
nearly right away. So, there are two ways to get the Key (an oddity in
this game!).
KEY SEVEN:
Go back to the lava place. Which exit to take, which exit to take? Try
the one on the left wall (coming from the entrance). Play the Song of
Time to get rid of the Blue Blocks, then fall into the water and sink
down to the bottom using your Iron Boots (obviously). First off, get rid
of the group of Shellblades, it will make your life a lot easier. One
Silver Rupee is in the middle, near the Switchblade. Three others are in
the middle, to reach them simply use the Longshot targets to pull
yourself to them (you need to be standing under the Rupee when you use
it. Should be easy if you've been to the Shadow Temple...). The last
one, which is at the top, requires you to take off the Iron Boots and
swim around up there until you can grab it. This is more difficult than
it sounds due to the vicious currents. When they are all collected a
chest will appear near where you entered, it has a Key in it!
KEY EIGHT:
Go back to the lava place. Take the exit that is straight ahead from the
entrance. You have to kill two Dinolfos and a Beamos in 1:30. If you've
faced the Dinolfos before it shouldn't be too hard, but if this is your
first encounter, then prepare to get whooped! Anyways, after everything
is done with a chest will appear, it has the eighth Key. Also note that
the exit has opened up, so go in.

Area
As anyone who has played the game can tell you, this map is not 100%
accurate, but this is basically what it is. You're probably wondering
where Key Nine is, since I show it on the map. Turn left from the
entrance (as shown above). Use the Lens of Truth and you will see an
invisible hole in the ceiling, climb the grating to get up there...ta
da! A chest with Key # 9. Nine Keys, nine locked doors, no problem
whatsoever. With this side-dungeon complete, you can have the awesome
Ice Arrows, which inflict twice the damage of a normal sword blow
(Master) and will freeze opponents. Besides, the explosion looks very
pretty =) That alone is reason enough to get this weapon, hehe...

6) GREAT FAIRY LOCATIONS
------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. MAGIC METER - Near Goron City is a strange rock...Bomb it to find a
path! Hike up the trail, using the Hylian Shield to avoid the falling
rocks, until you get to the summit. To the left of the sign is a rock,
blow it up! The Great Fairy will give you your Magic Meter. This is
required to beat the game...Now that you have that you can do the Spin
Attack with your sword (hold B!)
Note: If you do not talk to this Fairy, none of the other Great Fairies
will work. When you play Zelda's Lullaby on the Triforce Symbol, nothing
will happen.
2. DIN'S FIRE - Go to Hyrule's Castle grounds (right before the actual
castle) and you'll find a sign that says "dead end." Bomb it to find the
Great Fairy who will give you Din's Fire. This is required to beat the
game (I think...)
3. FARORE'S WIND - Go behind Jabu-Jabu (behind the King Zora) to find a
small island with a rock. Bomb it to find a Great Fairy!
