Template:Dungeon

The Forest Temple is the first dungeon in The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. It is located at the end of Faron Woods, where a spiderweb is blocking the entrance. After restoring light to the Ordon Province, the Light Spirit Faron tells Link that he needs a dark power, the Fused Shadows, in order to defeat Zant, the alleged King of Twili. The Fused Shadows have been scattered across Hyrule, and the first rests in the Forest Temple.

This temple is home to numerous monkeys, including the leader, Ook, who has been possessed. After rescuing four of the monkeys from every corner of the dungeon, Link can swing to the home of Ook and fight him. Once defeated, Ook doesn't die, but instead the bug-like being that possessed him dies. Ook runs away and leaves behind the Gale Boomerang. Using the Gale Boomerang, Link rescues the rest of the monkeys and gains access to the boss, Diababa.

Enemies

Being the first Dungeon of the game, the enemies found throughout the Forest Temple are some of the most basic enemies in the entire game. Most are easily defeated with a single swing of Link's Sword. The enemies found are listed below.

Twilit Parasite: Diababa

The boss of this temple is known as Twilit Parasite: Diababa. It is a fairly easy boss, whom can be defeated by using the Gale Boomerang to send bombs into its face and then slashing its eye with Link's sword. Ook actually comes back and helps Link with this battle by holding bomblings for Link to lock onto with his Boomerang after Diababa had destroyed the ones surrounding the area. After Link defeats it, he is gifted the first part of the Fused Shadow and a Heart Container.

Dungeon Items

This temple holds much of the same items featured in temples throughout the Zelda series. These items include Small Keys, the Dungeon Map, the Compass, and the Boss Key.

Dungeon Map

The Dungeon Map is a very useful item. It will show Link the entire make-up of the dungeon he is currently in. The Dungeon Map is found in the second room from the start of the dungeon. At the top of the stairs, Link will see four unlit torches. If he lights them all up with his Lantern, a chest will appear. It holds the Dungeon Map.

Compass

The Compass is one of the most useful items in the game. It will show the location of every treasure chest, every trapped monkey, and the boss. It is found in the second room that Link will go through. The Gale Boomerang is required to get the compass, as the chest that houses it is suspended in midair by a spiderweb.

Boss Key

The Boss Key is the one and only key that can be used to open the entrance to the Boss Chamber. From the start, go through the first room and enter the second room. Go up the stairs and go left over the gap using a monkey. Follow the path until Link reaches a gate. Use the Gale Boomerang to activate the windmills in a certain order specified by the pattern on the floor. Open the chest that lies beyond the gate for the Boss Key.

Small Keys
