The level takes place entirely at night, while the Links are trying to sneak in to the castle. Most of the exterior is combed by searchlights. If the Links break a pot, the searchlights immediately shift to the location where it broke in search of the source of the noise. One way to avoid them is to dive under the water. When the Links are caught in the searchlight, an alarm sounds and they are thrown in one of two prison cells, depending on where they are in the castle. For the first, they have to use the [[Boomerang]] to get the [[Small Key|key]] and escape the cell to try to run away again. The second requires the use of the [[Bow]].
