Link first encounters Zant after collecting the third and final piece of the Fused Shadows from the [[Lakebed Temple]].{{Ref|TP|2183| | Link first encounters Zant after collecting the third and final piece of the Fused Shadows from the [[Lakebed Temple]].{{Ref|TP|2183|Princess Zelda}} Zant halts Link and Midna as they exit. The Light Spirit, [[Lanayru (Light Spirit)|Lanayru]], tries to intervene, but Zant once again steals the light, thus restoring Twilight to the province. Zant also takes the Fused Shadows from Midna, calling them an old and withered power, proclaiming that his power is new and was granted to him by his god. [[Wolf Link]] tries to attack Zant, but in the process Zant uses his dark powers to curse Link, meaning he is now suspended in beast form. Zant then goes on to tell Midna of his desires, and that darkness and light will meet at last while asking the cursed imp to join him on his quest. After Midna refuses to aid Zant, he manipulates the Light Spirit Lanayru to return Midna to the Light World, leaving Midna an inch away from death. | ||
Later on in the plot, Link and Midna find the whereabouts of the [[Mirror of Twilight]], hidden within Arbiter's Grounds. This is the only connection to the Twilight Realm, so Link has to pass through the grounds to reach the [[Mirror Chamber]]. Upon navigating through the [[dungeon]], Link finds the remains of a skeletal being covered in sand. Zant appears and pulls out the Twilight Sword and thrusts it into the skull of the remains. This brings the seemingly dead being to life and this is the fourth boss of the game, [[Stallord]]. Upon defeating Stallord, Link makes his way up to the Mirror Chamber, where he finds the mirror broken. The Ancient Sages tell the young hero that this was the work of Zant and it was their fault that the King of Twilight was allowed to gain power. The Sages also tell Link that they sealed Ganondorf in the Twilight Realm and that this could be the source of Zant's power. | Later on in the plot, Link and Midna find the whereabouts of the [[Mirror of Twilight]], hidden within Arbiter's Grounds.
