Powering up Link's train

Tears of Light are items from The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks. These yellow items, shaped like crystallized drops, are found within the Tower of Spirits. When three Tears of Light have been collected, they power up Link's sword, allowing him to stun Phantom Guardians, which can then be possessed by Princess Zelda.

Tears of Light sometimes appear in small pits of lava. When this occurs Link must use the Whirlwind to blow them out of the pits. They can also appear in Safe Zones.

If Link exits a section of the Tower of Spirits after collecting the Tears of Light (either by returning to the central staircase or entering a room containing a Rail Map), or if the game is turned off after collecting the Tears, the sword's power is lost and the Tears must be gathered again if Link wishes to take control of another Phantom Guardian.

Tears of Light appear in the Dark Realm, and are used to temporarily make the Spirit Train invulnerable, allowing Link to destroy Armored Trains by running into them. While a Tear of Light is in effect, Link can significantly increase the train's speed by blowing the train's whistle.
