Unlike the other Poes, you're in for a surprise; her name is Meg, the Poe Sister who snagged the purple torch. Because you killed her sisters, she wants revenge! She will make three copies of herself, so this can be tricky at times. The moment she and her clones appear, look for the one that briefly spins: that's the real one you need to destroy. After a few hits, she will be defeated; all the torches will light up, and the elevator will be reactivated.

===Magic Attacks===
===Magic Attacks===
Phantom Ganon will throw a magic, bright yellow ball at you with his scepter and you have to swing it back at him. Z-Target him to accurately watch him, and when the ball of magic gets close to you swing your sword and it will turn blue and go back at him. It may miss him or he may hit it back to you. If he does, then hit it back at him until he gets hit. As you do that, the magic ball will speed up and you will need to react faster. It may miss Phantom Ganon when you swing it at him.  When you finally hit him he will fall to the ground. Then run up to him and strike him as many times as you can using your sword. If he has the chance when he's almost defeated, Phantom Ganon may launch a sparkling white ball of magic at you. Use the Spin Attack to counter it. Keep this up until Phantom Ganon has been defeated. As he dies, he will crumble apart.  
Phantom Ganon will float around the room and shoot at you with a magic, bright yellow ball.  If you strike one of these balls, it will either ricochet off your weapon or be sent flying back towards Phantom Ganon. When the fight starts, Z-Target Phantom Ganon as he floats close to the ground.  At this time it's best to dodge his attacks because the magic balls will move quicker and will ricochet off away from Phantom Ganon. Wait for him to float higher into the air.  He'll fire a slower moving magic ball at you: this is the time to fight! Strike the ball when it's close to you, and you'll start a batting war between you two. Every time someone hits the ball, it will speed up.  If you can survive the little game, eventually Phantom Ganon will mess up and the ball will hit him, stunning him and dropping him to the ground. This is the time to strike him with your sword. If you have the Biggoron Sword, switch to it as fast as possible. The best method of taking him down is to do a jumping attack and then strike him several times.

When you defeat him, you will find out that the real Ganondorf was watching. He becomes frustrated with his creation and banishes it to the gap between dimensions. Enter the blue light that appears to leave the Forest Temple.

===The Deku Tree's Sprout===
===The Deku Tree's Sprout===
You will find yourself in front of the Deku Tree. Link notices a root. It suddenly sprouts from the ground, revealing a large sprout with a smiling face, the Deku Tree Sprout. He reveals to him that Link is not a Kokiri, but a Hylian. This makes sense because Link became older and was able to leave the forest, something the Kokiri cannot do. The Deku Tree Sprout reveals that Link was brought to the Deku Tree by his Hylian mother during a time of war before Hyrule was unified. The Deku Tree could sense that Link was the child of destiny, so he took him in and raised him as a child of the forest. As for his mother, she passed away from the injuries she took from the war. Her fate upon her death is unknown. The Deku Tree Sprout tells you that you were always destined to leave the forest and to break the curses on the other temples. As for the Koriki Forest, it has returned to normal and the Koriki are back outside.
