Link marveled at the Fire Rod. It was truly beautiful. But Alel was skeptical.
"But this treasure shoots out fire. And source of the curse is made of fire. How do we defeat something like that?"
The voice only responded:
"The power of purity will always burn away the shadows..."
"But how...wait!
I can't sense the voice's presence anymore...what should we do...?"
They were surrounded in the Tower of Flames and not sure where to go or where to find the "Dancer of the Burning Darkness." Link and Alel didn't really have much of a choice. So they continued forward.
They explored the Tower of Flames, wandering all over. Eventually coming across a horde of monster Link has fought before, but this time the effects of the curse has changed them. The Dodongos. The small gecko-like fire breathing monsters Link had vanquished before during his travels in the Goron Mines had been changed by the black fire. They weren't small and meek anymore. Now they were huge, dinosaur-like and covered in black burning horns.
They looked threatening but Link knew what to do. As the Dodongos began to attack, they would slowly open their gaping mouths to breathe out the black fire. That was Link's chance to attack by using the Fire Rod to shoot its own flames into the Dodongo's mouth causing them to explode.
As Link and Alel continued to wander, the venturing became more and more dangerous as avoiding the flames were becoming more and more dangerous. Then without warning...
Link and Alel were suddenly wrapped in tendrils of flames and were completely mummified and were whisked away by a cyclone of fire. Soon, they re-appeared in a different area of the Tower of Flames much higher than they were previously and the tendrils that mummified them suddenly unwrapped by themselves. They were in a large room which for the first time was void of fire of any kind. Instead, the room was full of strange blades of various shapes and sizes dangling from the ceiling high above. The room was silent as well. Nothing but the occasional clang of metal as the chains swung back and forth.
Suddenly, there was a shake. A violent shake. The volcano was becoming more and more unstable and a crack appears in the floor. Black fire spewed up from below. The streams of fire swirled around engulfing the blades in fire.
Soon the streams stopped moving and began to condense into a spinning sphere. The sphere then grew arms and legs and finally a head. The centered of its body had cooled into a core made entirely out of rock and metal, its feet were 4 toed in the likeness of an avian and it had 3 fingers. With a flick of its wrist, the burning blades that hung above broke from their chains and condensed and melted together into two individual blades in the shape of the Chinese weapon: the Guandao.
The two blades felt to the ground hard and the creature grabs them both and yanks them from the ground. With one of them, he points to Link threateningly and challenges him to fight.
