Story

"Link's brashness nearly cost him his life as shadowy doubles overwhelmed him. At the last moment, Link's allies salvaged a rescue from otherwise certain defeat. The Master Sword is a mighty weapon... but its true power can be used only by someone who understands the bonds of friendship.

The Hyrulean army was rallying its strength, but Cia's forces still controlled much of their homeland The only way to save Hyrule was to defeat Cia. The Hyrulean Army headed to the Valley of Seers to force a decisive battle

But Cia did not sit idle, despite her overwhelming advantage. She found new ways to fortify her troops using her own life force. The cost to herself was irrelvant, so long as she crushed her enemies. The final battle between the armies of light and darkness was about to unfold."

Piece of Heart

  • Playing as Midna, take control of the East Ruins Room located near the northeast part of the Valley. A treasure chest will appear containing the piece of heart.

Gold Skulltulas

  • After defeating 1,000 enemies, the Gold Skulltula will appear southeast of East Sanctum. Take the south exit and loop around to find a boulder. Blow it up to find the Skulltula.
  • After completing Legend Mode the first time, a second Skulltula becomes available. This requires it to be in Hard Mode, played with Lana, and using the Spear. Defeat Volga two or more times and open a gate to the Enemy Base while keeping Zelda alive. The Skulltula appears in the northwest corner of the map.
