The '''Earth Temple''' is the fifth [[dungeon]] in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Wind Waker]]''. [[Link]] first goes here to power up the [[Master Sword]] after its power was drained due to the demise of the ancient sages. It can only be accessed under a large stone using [[Power Bracelet]]s on top of [[Headstone Island]].

The Earth Temple was originally located on a mountaintop in [[Hyrule]], which is now beneath the ocean. After Link obtains the [[Power Bracelet]]s from [[Fire Mountain]], he can then lift the stone in front of the entrance to the Earth Temple. Upon his first visit, he finds a large tablet with directions for the [[Wind Waker]] written on it. The directions are for a song known as the [[Earth God's Lyric]], which can be used to awaken the next Earth Sage. After playing this song, Link meets [[Laruto]], the previous Earth Sage.

Later, Link will return with [[Medli]], the new Earth Sage. Link and [[Medli]] must work together to make their way through the dungeon. Medli has the ability to fly and carry Link to high up places, and she can also use her harp to reflect light. The item of this dungeon is the [[Mirror Shield]], and it is received after defeating three [[Stalfos]]. Link must use it to solve light puzzles, and sometimes use it combined with Medli's harp to form intricate highways of light. Some time through the dungeon, Medli may be captured by [[Floormaster]]s and forced into a cage, which she can then fly out of.

The boss of the dungeon is [[Jalhalla]]. Link must defeat him using the Mirror Shield and Power Bracelets. At the end, Link will conduct with the [[Wind Waker]] while Medli and Laruto play Earth God's Lyric on the harp to partially power up the [[Master Sword]].
