Mothula is the boss of the Skull Palace, the third dungeon in the Dark World in The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past.
[edit] Battle
Mothula's boss chamber consists of a moving floor, surrounded by spikes. Once the boss battle begins, the floor starts shifting, and the spikes start sliding across the floor. Due to this, Link must not only worry about Mothula, but also avoiding the deadly spikes.
Mothula shoots lasers in groups of three and attempts to ram Link. While avoiding its attacks, Link can get close to the creature and use his sword to effectively take it down. Interestingly, Link can also use a captured bee on Mothula. This proves useful because Link will be able to dodge the sliding spikes, while the bee attacks Mothula in his place.
