'''Arbiter's Grounds''' is the fourth [[dungeon]] in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]''. The grounds act as prison, set to house the most dangerous and worst criminals within [[Hyrule]]. At the top of the grounds lies the [[Mirror Chamber]], which is watched over by the [[Ancient Sages]] and is the place where the worst criminals where sent to be executed. The dungeon itself is largely derelict and has been taken over by evil spirits and is roamed by the undead. | {{ZD|[[zd:twilight-princess-walkthrough/arbiters-grounds|''Twilight Princess'' Walkthrough<br/>Chapter 13: Arbiter's Grounds]]}} | ||

[[Link]] and [[Midna]] go to the Arbiter's Grounds in search of the only connection to the [[Twilight Realm]], the [[Mirror of Twilight]].

When Link first enters the dungeon, giant [[Big Poe|Poes]] steal the light from the four torches, reminiscent of the [[Forest Temple (Ocarina of Time)|Forest Temple]] of ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]''. Before Link can go any further into the dungeon, he must explore all of the side rooms looking for the Poes to take back the light they stole from the torches. After learning the [[Poe Scent]], it becomes much easier for [[Wolf Link]] to search, as the scent guides the young hero directly to each Poe. After killing all of the Poes, he soon engages in a battle with the [[Mini-Boss]] of the dungeon, the [[Death Sword]]. After defeating it, Link is rewarded with the [[Spinner]]. In this dungeon, Spinner tracks are common, allowing Link to reach places otherwise unaccessable. Link uses the Spinner to reach the boss, [[Stallord]]. It is a fossil, which [[Zant]] brings back to life with his sword. Link must use the spinner to kill Stallord, and he does. Link and Midna enter the Mirror Chamber, where they predict the Mirror of Twilight lies. After Link uses the Spinner to raise the mirror from underground, they only find a quarter of the mirror.

The Mini-Boss of Arbiter's Grounds is known as the Death Sword. It is a demonic looking figure that wields a gigantic sword. In the first phase of the battle against the Death Sword, it appears invisible to Link. The only way Link is able to see it is by becoming Wolf Link and using his senses. In the second phase of the battle, it is visible without Link's senses. During the battle, the Death Sword floats around mid air making it impossible for Link to inflict damage on him with his newly acquired [[Master Sword]]. However, Link can knock the demonic spirit down by using his [[Hero's Bow]]. Once the Death Sword is grounded, Link can attack it unmercifully. After a decent amount of hits, the Death Sword is defeated, and after a bunch of yelling in agony, the Death Sword transforms into multiple black bats. All of these pitch black bats will fly away through an apparent hole in the ceiling. Now that the Death Sword has been defeated, the door leading to the [[Treasure Chest|chest]] that contains the Spinner opens. | The Mini-Boss of Arbiter's Grounds is known as the Death Sword.

The [[Boss]] of Arbiter's Grounds is known as the Twilit Fossil: Stallord. It is a skeleton of a giant beast that is predicted to have died long ago. Upon entrance to the area where the giant fossil lies, Link spots Stallord half submerged in sand, seemingly dead. If he walks up to Stallord, Zant appears on top of its forehead. The King of Shadows says that he is surprised to see Link alive,{{Ref|TP|6967|Zant}} and then tells Link this shall be the last time he sees him alive.{{Ref|TP|6969|Zant}} Zant then summons a giant sword, which appears to originate from the Twilight Realm, and uses it to stab Stallord right in the forehead. After he leaves, Stallord seemingly wakes up, thus initiating the boss fight. Link then proceeds to defeat Stallord in both phases of the battle. His reward for doing so is a [[Heart Container]] and entrance to the Mirror Chamber, where the Mirror of Twilight lies. | The [[Boss]] of Arbiter's Grounds is known as the Twilit Fossil: Stallord.
