Haunted Wasteland
"If you chase a mirage, the desert will swallow you. Only one path is true!"
The Haunted Wasteland is a desert in Ocarina of Time. Link must traverse through it to be able to enter the Spirit Temple in the Desert Colossus. He only needs to cross it once, because once he makes it to the Spirit Temple, he is able to learn the Requiem of Spirit, which allows Link to instantly warp to the temple. Entering the wasteland requires the Gerudo Membership Card acquired in the Gerudo's Fortress, and the Longshot or Hover Boots to cross the River of Sand. In order to cross the desert, Link must follow the placed flags that leads to a small building that serves as a shelter. On the building, Link can use the Lens of Truth to reveal the Big Poe who will guide Link the remaining way to the Desert Colossus. There are four Gold Skulltulas, not including the ones in the Spirit Temple, within this vast desert.
