The Legend of Zelda Items: Difference between revisions

The Compass is found in every dungeon in ''The Legend of Zelda'', from Level 1: The Eagle to Level 9: Death Mountain. It has only one purpose; once Link has collected it, it will show Link the location of the [[Triforce Shard]] that's inside that particular dungeon. This is done by a small blinking dot on his map. In the final dungeon, the Compass will show Link to Princess Zelda, as there is not a Triforce Shard in that dungeon. It is generally guarded by an enemy and that enemy has to be defeated from the Compass to appear.

=== Triforce Shard ===

There are eight Triforce Shards found in ''The Legend of Zelda''. They are pieces of the [[Triforce of Wisdom]] that Princess Zelda broke into shards once she learnt that [[Ganon]] had stolen the [[Triforce of Power]] and was likely to come after her piece too. There is one found at the end of each of the first eight dungeons of the game. Once all of them have been assembled, Link can travel into Death Mountain and confront Ganon.
