Level Eight - The Lion

Entrance to the Underworld - Level VIII

This is it!  After I make it through here, the Triforce will be assembled!

Much like the dungeon before it, Level 8 is quite simplistic...although it doesn't offer much in the puzzle category, it is full of darknuts, making the action component of this dungeon at least a bit of a challenge.  That aside though, Level 6 still posed the most threat of any of the underworld levels.  This one is in the shape of a lion's head though, and that is kind of cool.  I mean, who doesn't think lions are cool!

Ominous...

 I might be a little fearful, if I knew what this guy was talking about in the first place!

The final dungeon's old man just decides to tell you where you'll find the final dungeon, period, of the game.  Though again, that's exactly what he says, but he isn't going to say that to you directly.  In retrospect of my analysis of the old man comments, how lame would it be if the old man here said "Spectacle Rock is where you'll find Ganon."  Awesome, but lame.  But one also has to think if they know enough to interpret all this information as riddles to Link...if they really want to help Link, why aren't they direct?  Probably an old man thing that none of us can understand.

Underworld Boss VIII - Gleeok

You just can't keep a dog down...

So the last dungeon throws Gleeok at us for a boss.  How nice.  This boss is definitely the hardest of the bosses, not that any of the bosses are in particular hard.  He is, however, more difficult in his own way to defeat than Ganon (which is sad, really).  Sorry my picture of this Gleeok is a little tilted...I ran into the room and took the picture quickly before I could get shot with too much fire.

Triforce of Wisdom Piece #8 (The Final Piece)

 At long last, the Triforce of Wisdom is assembled!  Now I can confront Ganon and put an end to all of this...his reign of terror ends now, baby!
