Twilight Princess

The second of the main areas of the game. It is mainly named after both the Light Spirit Eldin and Eldin, one of the three Dragons in Skyward Sword. Though the name "Eldin" comes from one of the Golden Goddesses, Din. Eldin Province is situated north of the Faron Province and southeast of the Lanayru Province. The location of the province will contrast depending on whcih version of the game you play. If playing on the Gamecube version, Eldin Province will be located to the east, however on the Wii version it will be located to the west.

It is host to Kakariko Village, Death Mountain, the Bridge of Eldin, Hidden Village and the largest portion of Hyrule Field. Death Mountain, similar to Ocarina of Time is the home of the Goron race. Eldin Province contains the second Dungeon of the game, the Goron Mines.

Link will first enter Eldin Province after he has restored light to the Faron Province and after he has completed the Forest Temple. He will once again be tasked with restoring light to the province, as Eldin too is stuck in the realm of twilight. Once Link has restored the light to the Light Spirit Eldin, he will then be able to explore the area fully. Link will soon figure out the conflict in Death Mountain and he will be tasked with climbing up this area. Once Link has tackled the trail up to Death Mountain, he will soon learn about the evil lurking within the Goron Mines, the second dungeon in the game. Once Link has tackled the dungeon and defeated Fyrus, he will be rewarded with a second piece of the Fused Shadows.

Shortly after the completion of the Goron Mines a cut scene will take place where King Bulbin and his troops of Bokoblins will storm Kakariko Village. In this scene Colin will be kidnapped and its up for Link to save him. This battle will take place in the Eldin section of Hyrule Field as well as on the Bridge of Eldin. Later on in the game Link will have to find the six missing Sky Characters hidden across Hyrule. When finding all the characters he will be able to complete the Ancient Sky Book. Now returning to the Sanctuary, Shad will dsay the ancient words in the now completed Sky Book, thus releasing the lock on the Owl Statue. This will enable Link access to the Sky Cannon, which he must use to gain access to the City in the Sky.
