In the last portion of the dungeon, the [[File:Zelda Oracles Ring 36.png]] '''Quicksand Ring''' will be extremely useful, because it allows to ignore water currents, too. | |||

Vire is a underling of {{zw|Veran}}. Equip yourself with sword and shield. Vire will fire several blue fireballs at you. You can either destroy them with the sword or block them with the shield. Wait until Vire comes near you and slash him. After three hits Vire will change his tactics and circle around you. Be patient and wait until he attacks you. After three more hits Vire will split up into two large bats. Again wait until these two parts fly low towards you and slash them for good. Vire will give up and flee. | Vire is a underling of {{zw|Veran}}. Equip yourself with sword and shield. Vire will fire several blue fireballs at you.

After you defeated Vire, continue to the next room. Throw a bomb with the right timing at the cracked blocks, then swap over with the Switch Hook to the chest with the [[File:Zelda Oracles Mermaid Suit.png]] '''Mermaid Suit'''. | |||
Now go back to the entrance, e.g. using the warp in Vire's room. | |||

From the entrance go east and shoot Ember Seeds on the Candleheads to open the next door. Watch out for the {{zw|Blade Trap|Giant Blade Trap}}s, which follow a pattern; open the north door with a Small Key. Swap yourself to the other side with the Switch Hook and go right. Get the [[File:Zelda Oracles Compass.png]] '''Compass''' from the chest, then jump down. | |||
Go down the stairs and go to the other side. Once you're out go south-west to get '''10 [[File:Zelda Oracles Small Red Rupee.png]] Rupees'''. Go back and unlock the key block. Continue to the north room. Try to pull any lever until a chest appear instead of Ropes: it's random; take out the [[File:Zelda Oracles Boss Key.png]] '''Boss Key''' from the chest. Now it is time to leave this dungeon. On the underground way back you need to use the Cane of Somaria to create a block. | |||
In the cave outside the dungeon, dive in the small pond; you'll find a [[File:Zelda Oracles Ring 19.png]] '''Toss Ring'''. | |||

Return to the | Return to the Ambi's age and reenter the dungeon. Go all the way west, beyond where the wall moved away. Dive in the deep water. Follow the path, go downstairs and swim to a different area, but watch out for the current and avoid falling in the pits. Equip the [[File:Zelda Oracles Ring 36.png]] '''Quicksand Ring''' if you have it. Swim to a room with two Ropes and fire-shooting statues. Kill the snakes for one [[File:Zelda Oracles Small Key.png]] '''Small Key'''. | ||
Now return back to the entrance. Check your map: go all the way north-east, as close as possible to the boss room, in a room with a locked door and a deep water pond. Ignore the door for now, but instead dive in the deep water. In the next room you can get '''30 [[File:Zelda Oracles Middle Blue Rupee.png]] Rupees''' from the chest. Continue north-east, killing Ropes to open your way. In the dead-end room, use the Switch Hook to bring all six diamonds on the colored plattform to get one [[File:Zelda Oracles Small Key.png]] '''Small Key'''. | |||
Now resurface and use a Small Key to open the door. Unlock the key block with the last Small Key and use the Cane of Somaria to place a block on the button, then shoot the crystal with the Seed Shooter. Now the way to the boss {{zw|Octogon}} is free. | |||

Swim to the | Swim to the platform in the middle and prepare sword and Seed Shooter for this boss. Octogon will circle around and shoot a rock at you. When Octogon opens the mouth, then attack it with the sword, since that is the only vulnerable spot on him. After a while he will dive under water. Do the same and attack him there with the Seed Shooter until Octogon surfaces, then you just need to surface too and attack him with the sword. | ||
After a while Octogon will be defeated and you can obtain the [[File:Zelda Oracles Heart Container.png]] '''Heart Container'''. Go right and get the [[File:Zelda Oracles Lonely Peak.png]] '''Lonely Peak'''. | After a while Octogon will be defeated and you can obtain the [[File:Zelda Oracles Heart Container.png]] '''Heart Container'''.
