Walkthrough:Eldin Temple (Echoes of Wisdom)

The Eldin Temple Walkthrough is a full guide for the Eldin Temple, the dungeon featured in Echoes of Wisdom. This includes navigating the dungeon, opening all chests, and taking on the dungeon boss, Volvagia.

First Small Key

• From the entrance head up to find a room with two Fire Keese. Defeat or avoid them and then head right a screen.
• Use a Lava Rock Echo on the right, so Link can jump over to the next platform. Then, either use Bind to grab the existing Lava Rock and carry it to the far right, or simply drop another Lava Rock on the lava geyser. Ride the lava rock up and head up a screen.
• Use the Mothula Echo and grab onto the Mothula. Jump over to the wind geysers and use them to glide up. Glide your way to the northeast corner and open the chest to get the small key.
• Backtrack down a screen and left a screen. Before heading through the locked door, head up a screen. After defeat the Dark Zirros, Zelda can use a Bombfish to break the boulders at the top-right of the corner. Pull up the chest to get 8 Twisted Pumpkins.

Second Small Key

• Use the Small Key on the locked door and head left. The lava in this room will rise and fall. When it is down, there are two Tweelus in the room. There is also a chest at the bottom of the room that can be pulled up which contains a Golden Egg.
• When the lava is lowered, lift the Lava Rock on the left side of the room and step on the floor switch. With the door opened, climb the ladder at the top of the room.
• Place a Lava Rock on the lava geyser so it is in between the rocks and then jump over to it.
• This next part has many solutions and it's solution will depend on Tri's power and how many triangle power Zelda has. Zelda can climb the wall and on the right side, there is a lava geyser. While Zelda can place a Lava Rock, she's too far to reach the higher ledge. If Zelda has five triangles of power, she can place an Old Bed as well as reach the right ledge.
• Alternatively, Zelda can use Strandtulas and quickly navigate across, but this is rather difficult and Zelda needs to be very quick.
• The best strategy is to first clear the Fire Octo below. Then drop a Lava Rock into the lava at the opening. While standing on the platform above where the Fire Octo was, and to the left of the Lava Rock, use Bind on the lava rock. While connected with the Lava Rock, climb down to the lava geyser. Place the lava rock so that the left end of it is at the edge of the geyser.
• Zelda can then jump to the lava rock. Since it is slightly closer to the right, Zelda can jump up to the right. Zelda will need to either have the Frog Ring equipped, or she can briefly swith to Swordfighter Form to make the jump.
• In the next room climb down the ladder and then use a Boulder to prevent the burning air from harming Zelda. Continue down the ladder here.
• Wait until the lava subsides and then drop down on the left side. There is a switch in the distance and the quickest method to hit it is to switch into Swordfighter Form and shoot an Arrow. This will open the door to the right.
• Zelda can drop a Lava Rock and jump back up, or use a Strandtula to get back up. Use a Lava Rock to get across the gap to the right and continue right a screen. Open the chest to get another Small Key.
