[edit] Story

Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.

Before reaching this temple, Link finds Faron Woods ravaged by Twilight: for instance, a whole section of the woods is covered in purple fog that has the same effect as falling down a bottomless pit. After being fully equipped with a sword, shield, and the Hero's Clothes, Link is able to reach the Forest Temple where he fought the enemies that caged a monkey.

The temple is complex and has areas that must be accessed with the help of an item, or with Monkeys there to make a chain.

Spoiler warning: Spoilers end here.

[edit] Dungeon

The Forest Temple is infested with monkeys and baboons, and is plagued by Diababa. The item Link finds in this dungeon is the Gale Boomerang, which he receives after defeating a corrupted baboon named Ook. Other monkeys are imprisoned throughout the temple, and must be rescued in order to cross the chasm and confront the boss. The interior of the temple is the insides of a large tree and its root system. Its well-being, like that of the Great Deku Tree, seems to affect the whole forest.

Ook, who begins as an enemy that has been possessed, ends up helping Link defeat Twilit Parasite Diababa, the boss of the Forest Temple.

[edit] Trivia

  • The symbol on the doors in this Forest Temple matches the design on Link's Deku Shield in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time which is also the symbol of the Kokiri, the Great Deku Tree, and Farore.
  • Due to its similar appearance and the aforementioned presence of the Kokiri symbol (which appeared within the Deku Tree in Ocarina of Time), and the fact that the entrance to the Temple is situated within a massive tree stump, this temple could possibly be the deceased remains of the Great Deku Tree.
