Mini-boss: Deku Toad

1st floor

In the big room, get rid of the Toados, then look at the ceiling. There is the mini-boss! Get rid of the Toados using your sword, then run and try to find the shadow of the Deku Toad to know where it will land. Swiftly get close to its tongue and hit it several times using your sword. Then, before it climbs back to the ceiling, you can aim at its jaw and throw a bomb in it. If you succeed, it will not climb back to the ceiling and you can hit its tongue once more. If you fail, you will have to get rid of smaller enemies before being able to hit it again. Do this technique two-three times more to defeat it. Open the chest and pick up the Clawshot! If you want, use the Clawshot on the red dots (targets) in the room to find some rupees in the pots, then use it on the target to the south of the room and open the door.

Do the same with the other enemy, then use the Clawshot to aim at the vines on the ceiling, go ahead and fall down. Swim towards the vines, climb on it and get around the room while climbing up. Shoot your Clawshot at enemies to take their shell off and then hit them with your sword. When the way is blocked, use the Clawshot on the targets to go across.

Let go, take a few steps, shoot the Clawshot at the target and find the Compass in the chest. Go over the fence, then slide towards the bottom.

Jump on a round platform, then jump on a pillar a bit further and shoot your Clawshot at a target on the big spinning round platform. When you are all the way to the east, let go and open the door to the east.

Here you will need to change your outfit several times to swim on the surface level, swim underwater and walk at the bottom of the water. First, swim north, then walk to the bottom of the water, go through the gap (kind of arch), then go to the centre near a Bari. Defeat it with your Clawshot, them swim up a little, halfway to the surface, southwards. Look for a wall with a brown rock inside of it, close to a Bombfish, in the south part of the room. Put on your Iron Boots to be in front of the rock, then attack the Bombfish with the Clawshot to make it explode in front of the rock, or you can strike it and use one of your Water Bombs. Go through, swim south, then put on your Iron Boots and place a bomb next to another brown rock. Go to the far south and take off your Zora Armor to swim up. Get out of the water and open the gate to the south.

If you want 50 rupees (Wii)/stamp (Wii U), put on your Iron Boots, climb the stairs, open the door to the west, go west twice, go to the top of the room with the spiral stairs, either by climbing with your Iron Boots, or by walking on the ledge, then climb one of the ladders, jump, shoot your Clawshot at the target and pick up 50 rupees/Letter Y stamp in the chest! before coming back to the central room.
To get a second Piece of Heart, go to the second floor to the east, grab the handle to make the stairs spin and thus make the water flow west. Take the stairs, open twice the door to the west, then jump on a round platform and jump on the small bridge (which has now risen). Go ahead, step on the switch, fight the Lizalfos, then from the switch, shoot the Clawshot at the target behind the chest and open it! Shoot again the Clawshot at the target on the ceiling to get out and come back to the central room.

Jump into the water and swim to the middle. Unlock the door, then break both pots to refill your hearts and to put a fairy in your bottle. Finally jump into the hole. Put on your Zora Armor and your Iron Boots to go down.

Twilit Aquatic: Morpheel

Twilight Princess walkthroughStay away from the boss, look for its eye in one of its tentacles and shoot your Clawshot at the eye to draw it to you, then quickly hit it with your sword once or twice. When little fishes appear, try to avoid them, but if you catch one of them, get away or throw it at the boss. After hitting its eye twice, the monster will completely get out of the sand.

Take off your Iron Boots and try to follow him by swimming "behind its head". When you are close enough to its eye, use the Z lock and the Clawshot to hook its eye, then quickly hit it 3-4 with your sword. Do this twice more to defeat it. If you feel like the boss is going to swallow you, quickly put on your Iron Boots to get down.

After getting the third Fused Shadow, pick up the Heart Container and come back to Midna.
