The Sky Cannon is a special Cannon from Twilight Princess that allows Link to reach the City in the Sky. It was likely made by the Oocca, but over time had been forgotten and lost.

Retrieving the Cannon

After Link completes the Temple of Time, Shad discovers an Owl Statue blocking a doorway in Renado's basement in Kakariko Village.[1] After collecting the Sky Character from various Owl Statues around Hyrule and filling up the Ancient Sky Book, Shad reads off a spell that removes a panel from the basement statue.[2] This allows Link to move it using the Dominion Rod.

Behind the statue, Link and Shad find a room with the broken Sky Cannon, which Shad recognizes from his father's notes.[3] Shad suggests that Link takes it to a cannon expert.[4] Once Shad has left the room, Midna can warp the cannon to Lake Hylia. There, if Link shows Fyer the cannon, he will repair it for 300 Rupees.[5]

Once the cannon is back in its original state, Link can grab hold of the back of the cannon with his Clawshot, which then launches him all the way to the City in the Sky. Another Sky Cannon is located within the city which will send him back down to the surface. At any time after repairing the Sky Cannon, it can be accessed in Lake Hylia to return to the City in the Sky.
