Level Two - The Moon

Level II - The Moon

Another part of the underworld to explore.  This one looks deep blue...kind of nice to look at, matches my clothes!

So after a bit of overworld travel, we are in Level Two, which shaped like a crescent moon.  That being said, it has a lot in common with the first dungeon: the ease of the enemies, the majority of which can but cut through like butter, the simplicity of the dungeon layout/puzzle volume, which lies to the extent of finding keys, exploring side rooms and staying on the straight path to the boss room and that is all there is.

The Old Man is an Enigma

Could you maybe elaborate on what you mean?  Like, for instance, what is a dodongo, perhaps why does he dislike smoke, and how will I produce fire to make it?  I'm not so sure my candle will faze any enemy I've seen in these parts.

The hints provided by the old men that you encounter in this game just get more and more vague as you go...they don't tell much, and they don't really add to or subtract from the plot at all.  The purpose I suppose they serve is to show that Hyrule isn't completely devoid of people...and to confuse Link to high heaven.

Underworld Boss II - The Dodongo

 I thought that the dinosaurs were extinct...this one apparently is lost in time because it doesn't really know I'm here.  Poor thing looks hungry too...only thing I really have that it might like is bombs, so maybe I'll try that...whoa!  Now I understand the old man!

So here we are, the second boss of the game.  Now, if one thought that Aquamentus was easy, Dodongo is a piece of cake.  This boss does nothing but walk around his chamber, growling and yelling, most probably about being hungry.  So Link decides to feed him (isn't that nice?) bombs.  I suppose that one who doesn't know what they're doing would be frustrated by this boss' non-straightforwardness (this is the first boss that provides a puzzle...and the first enemy that does period.  You can't just kill him with the sword.)  One way or the other, this boss is unquestionably easy to defeat: one can only feel shaky with the fact that the game is making the path easy thus far.

The Triforce of Wisdom - Piece #2

Yes, Impa didn't lie at all!  I'm starting to believe what she said about Zelda's kidnapping and about the shattering of the Triforce of Wisdom to protect it...makes my job harder but more fun too.  Now I have the second piece and lots of stuff!  Things are starting to come together nicely for little old me!

Here you have it...the second piece of the Triforce and the celebration!  Let's have some fun and dance before we go to the third dungeon...not really.  Straight out to the third dungeon we go!
