The '''Phantom Hourglass''' is the namesake item of ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass]]''. It is needed to navigate through the deeper sections of the [[Temple of the Ocean King]] due to its power to repel the dungeon's life-draining curse.{{Ref|PH|1599|Oshus}} | |||
==Properties== | |||
The Phantom Hourglass' timer starts upon beginning the Temple of the Ocean King, and counts down as long as Link is not standing in a [[Safe Zone]] or any of several special rooms in the dungeon. If struck by a [[Phantom]], one minute is lost. If time runs out, Link takes damage when outside of Safe Zones.{{Ref|PH|1602|Oshus}} | |||
The Phantom Hourglass contains [[Sand of Hours]], a substance made of [[Force Gem]]s of the [[Ocean King]].{{Ref|PH|1606|Oshus}} It initially contains 10 minutes worth of sand, but its capacity can be increased by defeating the bosses, which yields 2 additional minutes of sand, and by finding sand in underwater chests, which yield 1 additional minute of sand. Its maximum capacity is 25 minutes. Pick-ups can be found within the Temple of the Ocean King to replenish the Sand of Hours by 30 seconds. These are scattered throughout the dungeon's many floors in set locations and are dropped by [[Wizzrobe]]s. | |||
The Phantom Hourglass' power can only be restored by sunlight, therefore the timer resets upon leaving the dungeon.{{Ref|PH|1604|Oshus}} | |||
==Location== | |||
The Phantom Hourglass is automatically acquired upon returning to the Temple of the Ocean King after completing the [[Temple of Fire]]. A brief conversation between [[Link (The Wind Waker)#Phantom Hourglass|Link]], [[Ciela]], and [[Linebeck]] occurs on what to do to overcome the dungeon's curse. [[Oshus]] then appears and tells Link to claim the Phantom Hourglass sitting atop a pedestal in the Temple of the Ocean King's lobby. | |||
==Story== | |||
{{Spoiler|section}} | |||
The Phantom Hourglass was made so that [[Oshus]] could journey into the temple in search of [[Bellum]].{{Ref|PH|572|Oshus}} The sand in the hourglass, the [[Sand of Hours|Sands of Hours]], is the physical form of life force.{{Ref|PH|568|Oshus}} This is absorbed by the temple rather than [[Link (The Wind Waker)#Phantom Hourglass|Link]]'s own life force. Since bosses are made of stolen life force, defeating them gets extra time for the Phantom Hourglass.{{Ref|PH|571|Oshus}} | |||
{{ | Due to Oshus' status as the Ocean King and association with the Phantom Hourglass, [[Golden Chief Cylos]] immediately trusts Link upon seeing him with it.{{Ref|PH|1766|Golden Chief Cylos}} | ||
The Phantom Hourglass is later made into the hilt of the [[Phantom Sword]] to power it.{{Ref|PH|3349|In-game description}} | |||
At the end of the game, when [[Tetra's Pirate Crew]] insist that Link and [[Tetra]]'s adventure was just a dream, Link pulls out the Phantom Hourglass, now empty, which serves as proof of the events. | |||
