Mysterious Castle
Mysterious Castle
What's this? Link has stepped into a world frozen in time. Everything is gray -- completely devoid of color. But the statue of Link and the look of it gives it away. This is not just any castle...
To progress further, go to the large Triforce symbol at the foot of the hero statue. Start with the left block, as shown in the image below, and pull it towards you. Then pull it from the other side -- and so on until you've got it aligned with the triangle on the ground.
Repeat the same with the other two triangular blocks. Don't worry if you're getting yourself stuck in the middle with the final piece. The Triforce blocks will sink into the ground and a passage will open underneath the hero statue.
Go downstairs and take a good look around. Walk into the center of the room and pull out the Master Sword!
Intrigued by the stained glass windows? Well, you'll have to wait a little longer for everything to fall into place. For now, go back upstairs.
What do you know? All they enemies have started to move again! Defeat every single guard. It's quite a piece of work, but with the help of the Master Sword (and patient A Button special attacks in case of the armored knights), you'll get through it all. Don't forget to use your Hook?to steal items. You can steal from the knights as soon as they lose their helmets. You can, of course, also pick up their weapons and throw them at other enemies. Have fun with these battles. Once every enemy is gone, the magic barriers will disappear.
Video Walkthrough: Hyrule Castle
You can take a peek out of the exit on the bottom floor, but you won't get far. Go back to your boat and sail into the glowing spot to return to the surface. You will learn your new/old destination: the Forsaken Fortress. Change the wind to the northwest and set sail!
