'''Hyrule Castle''' is the third and final stage of [[Whereabouts of the Wind]], the first level in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures|Four Swords Adventures]]''. The stage takes place almost entirely in and around [[Hyrule Castle]], which is swamped by [[Soldier (Enemy)|Soldiers]] and other enemies. Like many other elements of the game do, the inside and outside of the castle greatly resemble the castle from ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|A Link to the Past]]''. This version, however, is much larger and contains many more rooms and enemies.

==Features and Story==
==Features and Story==
When the [[Link]]s arrive at the castle, the entrance is locked, forcing them to find a secret underground entrance. This entrance leads them to a switch that will open the main gate and allow them inside. After entering the Links must make their way through the rooms, hallways, and even walk on the roofs to progress. The Links will eventually reach an open courtyard with a [[Chief Soldier]] and a horde of [[Soldier]]s that will attempt to stop them from progressing.
