'''Death Sword''' is the mini-boss of the fourth dungeon in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]'', [[Arbiter's Grounds]]. Death Sword is an undead spirit, wielding a heavy, dark sword for a weapon. As Link first enters Death Sword's lair, he will come across the large, black sword embedding in the ground. Only when [[Link]] breaks the seal on the sword by slashing at the ropes with his own sword does the battle commence.

==The Battle==
In the beginning, all Link will see is a giant sword flailing across the room. By turning into [[Wolf Link]] and applying his beast senses, the true form of Death Sword will be revealed. At this time Link, remaining in wolf form, will need to attack the spirit after it strikes with its sword. After a number of successful hits by Wolf Link, Death Sword will become fully visible.

During this part of the battle, Link will have to nail Death Sword with an [[arrow]], the [[Clawshot]], or the [[Gale Boomerang]]. A hit by any of these will cause Death Sword to start flying around the room rapidly. A secondary hit will cause Death Sword to attempt to attack with the sword again. After a successful dodge Death Sword will be vulnerable, at which point Link can attack it with his sword. This process will repeat a few more times, after which Death Sword will be defeated, and a chest containing the [[Spinner]] will appear.
