The '''Desert of Doubt''' is a stage featured in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures|Four Swords Adventures]]''. It is the first stage of the level entitled ''[[The Desert of Doubt]]''.

==Story==
After defeating [[Phantom Ganon]] at the [[Temple of Darkness]], the Links discover that the [[Dark Mirror]] is missing. The [[Shrine Maidens#Red Maiden|Red Maiden]] suggests that they head to the Desert of Doubt, since she heard of a [[Ganon|Ganondorf]] there who had a name very similar to the one that the [[Deku Scrub]]s were worshiping.{{Ref|FSA|1323-1324|Red Maiden}}
 
Once they arrive, the Links immediately enter the Gerudo Village. The [[Gerudo]]s there confirm that Ganondorf was a member of their tribe, and he has fled toward the [[Pyramid]].{{Ref|FSA|616|Gerudo Elder}} The Links are given permission to then enter the more dangerous windy portions of the desert.{{Ref|FSA|686|Gerudo}}
 
Within the desert, there is a tablet that suggests the Links must go in the opposite direction of the wind in order to progress.{{Ref|FSA|600|Tablet}} If they do not follow this advice, they will hear ominous laughter and then be transported back. As they make their way toward the Desert Temple, they also find the [[Zuna]] tribe. Eventually they fight a [[Big Dark Stalfos]] and free one of the [[Knights of Hyrule]].

There is a wide variety of enemies present in the Desert of Doubt. Most enemies appear on the overworld, but [[Keese]] and one [[Force Gem Knight]] can be found in caves. [[Bubble]]s are only seen in the [[Dark World]], and [[Cheep-Cheep]]s appear in one underwater cave.
 
==Items==
===Pegasus Boots===
The only active item in this level is the [[Pegasus Boots]]. At first is it used to break barriers. After the [[Great Fairy]] upgrades it, it can be used to run over sinkholes and pits around the desert.
 
===Moon Pearl===
A [[Moon Pearl]] is found early on within a cave. It is used to open a portal to the [[Dark World]] to defeat the [[Gibdo]]s that turned into [[Stalfos]] to progress.
 
===Force Fairy===
In addition to the regular Force Fairies obtained upon completing a stage, Link can find an extra [[Force Fairy]] in the tree in the middle of the Zuna Village by dashing into it with the Pegasus Boots.
 
==Features==
===Gerudo Village===
{{Main|Gerudo Village#Four Swords Adventures|Gerudo Village}}
The Gerudo Village is situated directly at the entrance to the Desert of Doubt. The [[Gerudo]] at the entrance explains that visitors are welcome, though they are currently in an uproar over a man who broke their laws.{{Ref|FSA|598|Gerudo}} The Links must speak to the Gerudo in the northeastern tent to gain access to the dangerous portions of the desert.
 
===Zuna Village===
{{Main|Zuna Village}}
[[File:Zuna Village.png|200px|left|thumb|The Zuna Village]]
The Zuna Village is found deep within the desert, in a single oasis safe from the sandstorm winds. It contains small deposits of water as well. The [[Zuna]] resident at the entrance claims that visitors are very rare to their village.{{Ref|FSA|599|Zuna}} The village contains a woman who will offer a sand rub for 100 [[Force Gem]]s too restore some of Link's hearts. In the same tent, beneath a block, there is a [[Mini-Game|mini-game]] owner who will allow Link to open one [[Treasure Chest|chest]] at the cost of 100 Force Gems with the chance of winning 1, 100, 150, or 300 Force Gems.{{Ref|FSA|1961}} However, the game can only be played three times.{{Ref|FSA|1960}}

===Great Fairy Fountain===
A [[Great Fairy Fountain]] can be found underground in the third section of the windy desert. She assists the Links by upgrading their Pegasus Boots so they can cross a sinkhole in the sand as well as healing them.{{Ref|FSA|552|Great Fairy}}{{Ref|FSA|563|In-Game Description}}
 
==Mini-Boss==
Just before the [[boss]], the Links encounter four [[Shadow Link]]s with [[Bomb]]s. The Shadow Links will enter and exit blocked caves scattered around the screen and attack them. They will also randomly place down Bombs and may transform into one of the colored Links.
 
==Boss==
The boss of the Desert of Doubt is a [[Big Dark Stalfos]]. The Links must first kill the Stalfos in the regular world, and then they will be sucked into the Dark World to fight the boss itself. Upon defeating it, the boss transforms into one of the [[Knights of Hyrule]], specifically the one tasked with protecting the [[Royal Jewels|Red Royal Jewel]]. He reveals that the one who created Shadow Link was not [[Vaati]] but Ganon, who tricked Link into breaking Vaati's seal. He grants the Links their third jewel.{{Ref|FSA|1212|Red Knight of Hyrule}}
