'''The Desert of Mystery''' is a massive [[Desert]] located the southwest corner of [[Hyrule]] in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|A Link to the Past]]''. | |||
==Location== | |||
The Desert of Mystery covers the entire southwest portion of Hyrule within the [[Light World]]. It is only accessible from the east through the [[Great Swamp]]. Just to the north of the Desert lies [[Kakariko Village]], but there is no direct route connecting the two regions. | |||
==Features== | |||
There is a cave at the northeast corner of the Desert where [[Aginah]] can be found. He is a descendant of the [[Seven Sages]] and the brother of [[Sahasrahla]]. [[Link]] can place a bomb along the southern wall to reach a room containing a [[Piece of Heart]]. | |||
At the southwest corner of the Desert there is a higher platform that is only accessible if Link plays the [[Flute]] and warps to this location. Link can use the [[Titan's Mitt]] to lift the heavy rock to find a [[Magical Warp Tile]]. This serves as an entrance to the [[Swamp of Evil]], the corresponding location of the Desert in the [[Dark World]]. This warp tile is the only way to reach the Swamp of Evil and the dungeon located there, [[Misery Mire]]. | |||
Right at the entrance to the Desert of Mystery there is a [[Tablet]] on a higher ledge. Link can only access this Tablet from the Dark World using the [[Magic Mirror]]. Link can use the [[Book of Mudora]] to read the tablet and will then hold up the [[Master Sword]]. Link acquires the [[Bombos Medallion]] and the Tablet will then be destroyed. This is the final of the [[Magic Medallions]] that Link can acquire and is also an optional item. | |||
===Desert Palace=== | |||
{{main|Desert Palace}} | |||
The main attraction is the entrance to the [[Desert Palace]], the location of the [[Pendant of Wisdom]]. Link will need to use the Book of Mudora to read the stone in front of the entrance. This will cause Link to sing a tune, shifting the rocks in front of the Palace, and allowing Link to enter. | |||
