They headed Northeast and entered the Haunted Wasteland.
Because they are all parts of Link, they now have duplicates of all items, with the exceptions of items they had before the adventure (such as bottles, the magic rods, and the hammer). They used the Lens of Truth and Longshot to begin crossing…
Chapter 12: A Shadow Among the Spirits
The six heroes decided to make it a bit easier by holding on to each other as they crosses the crates in the river of sand. Soon they got to a stone tower. They found stairs leading up, but there was nothing there. They used the Lens of Truth and discovered a sign. It said:
Combine opposite points, then the light will show the way.
"What does that mean?" Blue asked, confused.
"Let's see. Opposites can mean like either fire and ice or iron and hover. However, the points leaves me with nothing." Vio said.
"The arrows are pointy." Red said, which lit the bulb in Josh's mind.
"It is the Fire and Ice Arrows." Josh said. Vio picked the arrows out of the bag, and touched the points together.
There was a bright light, and something floated down. The heroes examined it.
"It's beautiful." Shadow said, picking it up. It was the magic spell, the Light Arrows.
"It is." Red said, smiling.
Shadow pointed the arrow at the sun, and the sandstorm cleared up. They saw the path, and they continued on. They entered the Desert Colossus, and they headed up to the temple's entrance. There was another inscription:
If it is entrance you want, use the light to see the light.
"What is all this about light? I know it's the light arrows, but where do we shoot it?" Green asked, confused.
"See the light…" Red mumbled. "I got it! Shoot it in the one eye that is visible!" Red said, solving the puzzle.
Red shot it, and the temple's door opened. Shadow's sword started glowing.
"It's my turn." Shadow said. Green went up to him.
"Whatever happens, keep your spirits high in the sky." Green said and kissed him. Shadow walked into the dark entrance.
Room 1: The first room is a seemingly empty room. Shadow tried to continue, but was able to dodge the Door Mimic. He used one of his bombs to destroy it. A chest appeared. Shadow opened it to find the Bombchus.

Room 3: A single Like-Like. Shadow stuns it with the Longshot, and defeats it effortlessly.
Room 4: A single torch slug. Shadow hits it to extinguish the flames, and hits it again to defeat it.
Room 5: An Iron Knuckle. Because he doesn't have the Ice Rod or the Hammer, he uses Nayru's Love to defeat the enemy. He defeats it in a short amount of time, and a chest appears. Shadow opens it and discovers the Silver Gauntlets. He collects the magic left after.

Room 17: An Armos. Shadow throws a bomb directly into it, and avoids it when it explodes.
Room 18: An Armos, a Lizalfos, and two Fire Keese. Shadow uses the Longshot on the Fire Keese. He then throws a bomb at the Armos and lets it destroy the Lizalfos when it explodes. He continues on.
Room 19: Three Like-Likes and six Wolfos. Shadow stuns the Like-Likes, and then systematically takes care of the Wolfos. The, he quickly rids of the Like-Likes.
Room 20: Iron Knuckle. He uses Nayru's Love to defeat the enemy in a short amount of time. A chest appears and Shadow discovers the Mirror Shield. The Hylian Shield disappears. He collects the magic left after, and his magic meter is refilled.
Room 21: The boss, Twinrova. When the fight begins, Shadow uses the Mirror Shield to reflect an element at the opposing one. After doing this several times, Koume and Kotake form into one being. Shadow then absorbs three blasts of the same element, and then shoots it at Twinrova and then hits her with his sword. After doing this several times and realizes she's not being affected, he does it once more and uses the Light Arrow. He defeats Twinrova. Twinrova is defeated and Shadow picks up a Heart Container. Suddenly, a bolt of light goes through the temple and into the sky, and the sky becomes completely clear. Shadow exits the temple using the warp that appeared after Twinrova was defeated.
The five heroes look as Shadow floats down.
"The sky's all clear!" Red shouts. They all cheer, and Green runs to Shadow and tells him how proud he is.
Suddenly, there's a loud boom. The sky becomes completely dark. There's a loud, evil laugh. Next thing the heroes see is nothing.
Switch Scenes
When the lights are back, the heroes see that they are in a small, enclosed room. There's an inscription on the wall in front of them.
The last hero places the blades here to activate the final challenge leading up to the ones you want to fight.
Josh started shaking. He did as was written, and the wall lifted up.
"This must be the Light Temple." Vio said, hugging Josh for comfort.
"I can't do it. I'm not ready." Josh said, starting to cry into his boyfriend's shoulders.
"Look at me." Vio said, and Josh did. "You are ready. Just believe in yourself. Always think of the light. Not the darkness. " Vio said, letting a single tear fall.
Josh walks into the uncertainty of the Cursed Light Temple…
