Most islands show up on your chart as soon as you own it, but a few are left off and appear only when you sail close enough for Ciela to spot them: Spirit Island, Uncharted Island, Dee Ess Island, Harrow Island and Maze Island. Below, each island is listed by sea with what you find there. - [Sand of Hours](https://zeldacentral.com/games/phantom-hourglass/guides/sand-of-hours/): The Phantom Hourglass starts with 10 minutes of Sand of Hours, and you can raise that to a maximum of 25 minutes. Five of the bosses after the first add two minutes each, and five sunken treasure chests at sea add one minute each. The Cubus Sisters of the Ghost Ship are the only boss that gives no sand. This page covers where every minute comes from and how the time drains and recovers. - [Mini-Games and Side Quests](https://zeldacentral.com/games/phantom-hourglass/collectibles/mini-games/): Phantom Hourglass hides five games that cost Rupees and pay out prizes, plus a handful of other side quests, and together they are worth a lot. They hand out an upgrade for each of three bags, four of the thirteen Heart Containers, Wisdom Gems, many Ship Parts and several Treasure Maps. This page covers each one in turn: where it is, what unlocks it, what it costs, how to score and exactly what you win. - [Trading Sequence](https://zeldacentral.com/games/phantom-hourglass/collectibles/trading-sequence/): The trading sequence is a chain of swaps between four Traveler's Ships and ends with the Swordsman's Scroll, the only scroll in the game, which lets you perform a Great Spin Attack. You start by clearing the Man of Smiles' ship for the Hero's New Clothes, then pass that item on through Nyeve, Hoiger Howgendoogen and Nyave until the Old Wayfarer takes the final item. Finish the Old Wayfarer's mermaid quest on Bannan Island first, or the last step will not start. - [Fishing Guide](https://zeldacentral.com/games/phantom-hourglass/collectibles/fishing/): Fishing in Phantom Hourglass is a side quest run by the Old Wayfarer on Bannan Island. After you get the Fishing Rod you can catch six kinds of fish at sea. Show him a Loovar and he gives you the Big Catch Lure, which lets you land the Rusty Swordfish and the legendary Neptoona. The Rusty Swordfish earns a Ship Part, a Stowfish hooked on a big catch earns another, and the Neptoona earns a Heart Container. - [Ship Parts](https://zeldacentral.com/games/phantom-hourglass/collectibles/ship-parts/): Ship parts are the pieces that make up the S.S. Linebeck: there are nine sets, each made of eight parts, one for every slot on the ship. You collect them from Beedle's ship, by salvaging sunken treasure, from chests, from replays of the Temple of the Ocean King and as mini-game prizes, then swap them in at the shipyard on Mercay Island. Fitting three, six or eight parts from the same set gives your ship extra hearts, and the Golden Ship set can take it to eight. - [Treasures](https://zeldacentral.com/games/phantom-hourglass/collectibles/treasures/): Phantom Hourglass has eight kinds of treasure: Pink Coral, Pearl Necklace, Dark Pearl Loop, Zora Scale, Goron Amber, Ruto Crown, Helmaroc Plume and Regal Ring. They are mainly there to be sold. Each kind is worth 50, 150, 800 or 1,500 Rupees, and the game fixes that price once for your save file. The Treasure Teller on Mercay Island is where you find out what each one fetches. - [Treasure Maps](https://zeldacentral.com/games/phantom-hourglass/collectibles/treasure-maps/): There are 31 treasure maps in Phantom Hourglass. Each one marks a red X on your Sea Chart, and when you sail to the X and lower the Salvage Arm you pull up a sunken chest. Of the 31, 23 hold a Ship Part, 5 hold Sand of Hours worth one minute each, 2 hold a random Treasure, and the last holds a Big Gold Rupee. You need the Salvage Arm before any of them pay off, so this page starts there. - [Isle of the Dead and the Isle of Ruins Walkthrough](https://zeldacentral.com/games/phantom-hourglass/walkthrough/isle-of-the-dead-and-isle-of-ruins/): These two islands are one long errand. On the Isle of the Dead you solve the island's riddles, read six gravestones, walk the Phantom Corridor and earn the Regal Necklace from the knight Brant. The necklace calms the cyclone around the Isle of Ruins, where you wake three more knights, unlock the island with the King's Key, drain its water and draw a secret symbol on a red door. That door leads to Mutoh's Temple and the third Pure Metal. - [Isle of Frost and the Yook Mystery Walkthrough](https://zeldacentral.com/games/phantom-hourglass/walkthrough/isle-of-frost/): The Azurine, the second Pure Metal, lies in the Temple of Ice, and the Isle of Frost is wrapped in so much ice that you cannot even dock. This chapter takes you through the whole approach: sail around the island firing the cannon until the ice breaks, meet the Anouki and their Island Chief, work out which of six villagers is a Yook in disguise, and fight your way across the Great Ice Field to the temple door. - [Goron Island and Gongoron Walkthrough](https://zeldacentral.com/games/phantom-hourglass/walkthrough/goron-island/): The Southeastern Sea Chart opens a new quarter of the Great Sea, and the next pure metal lies on Goron Island. Gorons live there, and they will not let a stranger near their temple. You fight your way through a cyclone by shooting the Massive Eye, say hello to every Goron, pass Biggoron's quiz to become Goro-Link, and follow the runaway Gongoron through a maze of cracked blocks to the temple door. - [Northwestern Sea and the Isle of Gust Walkthrough](https://zeldacentral.com/games/phantom-hourglass/walkthrough/northwestern-sea-and-isle-of-gust/): This chapter takes you out of the Southwestern Sea, through the fog and into the Northwestern Sea, where four islands wait: Bannan Island with its fishing quest, Zauz's Island, Uncharted Island, which hands you the Cyclone Slate, and the sandy Isle of Gust. The short version is to copy the fog route onto your Sea Chart, sail it, pick up the side quests in the order the islands appear, and finish by crossing the Isle of Gust to the locked door of the Temple of Wind. - [Cannon Island, the Ghost Ship Chase and Molida Island Walkthrough](https://zeldacentral.com/games/phantom-hourglass/walkthrough/cannon-island-and-molida-island/): This chapter turns a dusty chart into a working ship. Clean the Northwestern Sea Chart at the Mercay dock, sail to Cannon Island to buy the Cannon from Eddo, follow the Ghost Ship into the fog until it throws you back, then learn the way through the fog on Molida Island. Along the way you pick up the Shovel, a Power Gem chest, two treasure maps and a handful of treasures. - [Isle of Ember and Astrid Walkthrough](https://zeldacentral.com/games/phantom-hourglass/walkthrough/isle-of-ember/): This chapter takes you from the dock on Mercay Island to the door of the Temple of Fire. You learn to sail by drawing a course, stop at Beedle's Shop Ship, land on the Isle of Ember, find the ghost Kayo, mark three torches to free the fortune-teller Astrid, and climb the volcano to blow out two candles at the temple entrance. - [The Phantom Sword and Bellum Walkthrough](https://zeldacentral.com/games/phantom-hourglass/walkthrough/phantom-sword-and-bellum/): This is the final stretch of the main quest. You give the three Pure Metals to Zauz, win one last sword duel against Jolene, collect the finished blade, carry it to Oshus on Mercay Island to become the Phantom Sword, and power up your Spirits on Spirit Island. Then you go down the Temple of the Ocean King one last time, defeat the nine Phantoms on B13, take the stairway to Bellum and win the final battle in three parts: Bellum in his chamber, the possessed Ghost Ship at sea and Bellumbeck on the wreck. - [Temple of the Ocean King: B10 to B13 and the Northeastern Sea Chart Walkthrough](https://zeldacentral.com/games/phantom-hourglass/walkthrough/temple-of-the-ocean-king-b10-b13/): This is the deepest trip into the temple, and the one that reaches the bottom. You walk back down to B9 with your new gear, pick up three Spirit Gems and a treasure map that earlier visits could not reach, then press on through four floors of Gold Phantoms. B10 asks you to drop boulders on them, B11 is a puzzle of bridges and four floor switches, and B12 asks for three Force Gems, as B3 did. The prize on B13 is the Northeastern Sea Chart, the last of the four charts. - [Zauz and the Temple of the Ocean King: B7 to B9 Walkthrough](https://zeldacentral.com/games/phantom-hourglass/walkthrough/temple-of-the-ocean-king-b7-b9/): After the Ghost Ship, Oshus sends you to the blacksmith Zauz, who explains that the Phantom Sword needs three Pure Metals and shows you a symbol that opens a new path in the Temple of the Ocean King. You sail to Zauz's Island, collect a letter and a ship part on Mercay Island, and then take the temple from the entrance to B9. Beyond the Triforce door on B6 you go through the Door of Courage, solve three crystal puzzles over B7, B8 and B9, and open the chest that holds the Southeastern Sea Chart. - [Temple of the Ocean King: B4 to B6, the Salvage Arm and the Sun Key Walkthrough](https://zeldacentral.com/games/phantom-hourglass/walkthrough/temple-of-the-ocean-king-b4-b6/): This chapter takes you from the Temple of Wind to the Sun Key. You collect Spirit Gems on Bannan Island, the Isle of Ember and Mercay Island, return to the Temple of the Ocean King and climb through B4, B5 and B6 with Neri's help, copy the sun crest onto your Southwestern Sea Chart, buy the Salvage Arm from Eddo on Cannon Island and pull the Sun Key out of the sea at the marked spot. - [Temple of the Ocean King: B1 to B3 and the Phantom Hourglass Walkthrough](https://zeldacentral.com/games/phantom-hourglass/walkthrough/temple-of-the-ocean-king-b1-b3/): This is your second trip into the cursed Temple of the Ocean King, and the first with a way to survive it: the Phantom Hourglass. You take the hourglass from the altar, open the Door of Power on 1F, sneak through B1 and B2 by hiding from the armoured Phantoms on the Safe Zones, haul three Force Gems across B3 to their pedestals, and finish in the Checkpoint Chamber, where a chest holds the Northwestern Sea Chart. - [Mercay Island and the First Sea Chart Walkthrough](https://zeldacentral.com/games/phantom-hourglass/walkthrough/mercay-island/): This chapter takes Link from the beach where he washes ashore to the dock on Mercay Island. You pick up Oshus's Sword, learn to fight, cross the mountain passage by solving its lever puzzle, buy a shield in the village and rescue Linebeck on the first floor of the Temple of the Ocean King. The prize for that rescue is the Southwestern Sea Chart, and Oshus shows you where to take it next: the Isle of Ember. - [Mutoh’s Temple Walkthrough](https://zeldacentral.com/games/phantom-hourglass/walkthrough/mutohs-temple/): Mutoh's Temple is the seventh and last dungeon of the game, and it gives you the Hammer. You climb to the third floor for the Hammer, then spend most of the dungeon on the two lowest floors, where the Hammer flips tiles, raises and lowers the water, and sends you up on footprint launchers. The two small keys lead to the Boss Key, which opens the door to Eox, a stone giant that you break apart from catapults. King Mutoh rewards you with the Aquanine, the last of the three Pure Metals. - [Temple of Ice Walkthrough](https://zeldacentral.com/games/phantom-hourglass/walkthrough/temple-of-ice/): The Temple of Ice is the sixth dungeon and the one that hands you the Grappling Hook. You climb to 3F for the first small key, come back down to take the hook from a chest on 2F, then use it to work through B1 and B2 to the Boss Key, and finally fight the two-headed Gleeok for the second Pure Metal, Azurine. Almost every puzzle after the hook is a tightrope, so keep it equipped. - [Goron Temple Walkthrough](https://zeldacentral.com/games/phantom-hourglass/walkthrough/goron-temple/): The Goron Temple is the fifth dungeon and the one that gives you Bombchus. Gongoron is trapped in the lower floors, so you free him, then play as Link and as Gongoron in turn to open one another's paths through spikes, quicksand and switches. Take the Bombchus on B1, use them to reach the Boss Key on B2, and finish Dongorongo with Gongoron's charge and a Bombchu to the mouth. The prize is a Heart Container, two more minutes of sand and the Pure Metal Crimsonine. - [The Ghost Ship Walkthrough](https://zeldacentral.com/games/phantom-hourglass/walkthrough/ghost-ship/): The Ghost Ship is a short dungeon with no main item. You find the vessel by steering Linebeck's ship while the three Spirits react to how close you are, rescue four sisters of the house of Cubus from the ship's three basement floors, beat them at a deadly game of tennis, and leave with the Ghost Key and a Heart Container. The key opens the door that holds the petrified Tetra, and Oshus then tells you the truth about the seas. - [Molida Island and the Temple of Courage Walkthrough](https://zeldacentral.com/games/phantom-hourglass/walkthrough/temple-of-courage/): This chapter takes the Sun Key you salvaged in the Southwestern Sea back to Molida Island. Sink the Giant Eye Plant at the harbour, open the sun door, aim three statues at the temple gate, then clear the Temple of Courage for the Bow, a Heart Container and the last piece of Ciela. Afterwards you collect the Shooting Range prizes and sail for the fog. - [Temple of Wind Walkthrough](https://zeldacentral.com/games/phantom-hourglass/walkthrough/temple-of-wind/): The Temple of Wind is the second dungeon of the game and the one that gives you Bombs. You wander a sand-filled temple full of wind jets, find a small key and the Bombs on the lower floors, carry the Boss Key back up to the first floor and defeat Cyclok by dropping bombs into cyclones. The reward is a Heart Container, two extra minutes for the Phantom Hourglass and the Spirit of Wisdom, Neri. - [Temple of Fire Walkthrough](https://zeldacentral.com/games/phantom-hourglass/walkthrough/temple-of-fire/): The Temple of Fire is the first dungeon of Phantom Hourglass and the place where you win the Boomerang, the item that drives almost every puzzle for the next hours. You work up through five floors by memorising a safe path, hitting far-off switches with the Boomerang and carrying the heavy Boss Key to the locked gate on 3F, then defeat Blaaz, take a Heart Container and free Leaf, the Spirit of Power. Astrid rewards you with a Power Gem and you sail back to Mercay Island. - [Guides & Resources](https://zeldacentral.com/games/phantom-hourglass/guides/): More Phantom Hourglass reference pages that sit alongside the main guide.

This page lists each total and links to the page that shows you where to find it. - [Maps](https://zeldacentral.com/games/phantom-hourglass/maps/): The sea of Phantom Hourglass is split into four quarters, and you hold one sea chart for each: the Southwestern, Northwestern, Southeastern and Northeastern Sea Chart. Every chart is a chest in the Temple of the Ocean King, and you cannot explore a quarter until you own its chart. Inside dungeons there is nothing to collect, because the touch screen draws the map of each floor as you walk. This page explains how the chart works, where to get all four, which islands each one shows and which dungeon sits where. - [Wisdom Gems](https://zeldacentral.com/games/phantom-hourglass/wisdom-gems/): There are 20 Wisdom Gems in Phantom Hourglass, and every one is blue. One is sold on Beedle's shop ship, four come from characters or the mailbox, two are prizes for a quiz and a maze, and the other thirteen are in chests across the islands and the Temple of the Ocean King. Collect ten and take them to the Shrine on Spirit Island to power up Neri, the Spirit of Wisdom; bring all twenty for her second upgrade. Many chests need Bombs, the Bow or the Grappling Hook, so some gems have to wait until you own those items. - [Power Gems](https://zeldacentral.com/games/phantom-hourglass/power-gems/): There are 20 Power Gems in Phantom Hourglass, and every one is red. One is sold in the Mercay Island shop, three are handed over by characters or arrive by mail, and the other sixteen sit in chests and hidden spots on islands and inside dungeons. Collect ten and take them to the Shrine on Spirit Island to power up Leaf, the Spirit of Power; bring all twenty to power her up a second time. Most of the later gems need the Bow, Bombs, the Shovel or the Grappling Hook, so expect to come back to earlier places as you gain items. - [Walkthrough](https://zeldacentral.com/games/phantom-hourglass/walkthrough/): Phantom Hourglass alternates between islands and one dungeon you keep coming back to. Each normal dungeon ends in a boss and a Heart Container, and all but the Ghost Ship also give you a new tool. In between, you return to Mercay Island and sink deeper into the Temple of the Ocean King. Each new stretch of the temple needs something you won on the islands, and each one gives you a new Sea Chart or a key to the next part of the quest. - [Camps and Shops](https://zeldacentral.com/games/hyrule-warriors-age-of-imprisonment/guides/camps-and-shops/): Camps are healing and supply stops that you set up on captured outposts during a battle, and the Bonus Exchange and the Tusk & Talon shop work from inside them. Between battles you shop at Supply Depots and upgrade gear at the Weapons Research Base. This page explains each place, what it sells or does, and the quest or battle that opens it. - [Zonai Devices](https://zeldacentral.com/games/hyrule-warriors-age-of-imprisonment/guides/zonai-devices/): Age of Imprisonment has 11 Zonai devices: Battery, Fan, Balloon, Rocket, Time Bomb, Flame Emitter, Frost Emitter, Shock Emitter, Beam Emitter, Hydrant and Cannon, plus the Wing that the flying battles add. You assign them in the Special Actions menu, call them up in battle with R plus a face button, and pay for each use out of the energy gauge, which a Battery tops up instantly. This page lists each device with its cost, what it does and where you get it. - [Korok Seed Locations](https://zeldacentral.com/games/hyrule-warriors-age-of-imprisonment/collectibles/korok-seed-locations/): There are 101 Korok Seeds in Age of Imprisonment. Fifty-four are hidden in 17 story battles, two more are hidden in the Chapter 2 challenge A Time for Review, 33 are first-clear rewards for seven challenges, and 12 are rewards for four of Calamo's aside quests. You hand seeds in to quests that raise your Zonaite Steel capacity, weapon capacity, camp supply slots and Special Ration and Battery limits, and doing every one of those quests takes 99 of the 101. - [Lenalia’s Sketches](https://zeldacentral.com/games/hyrule-warriors-age-of-imprisonment/collectibles/lenalias-sketches/): Lenalia's Sketches are 11 post-game quests. Ten of them, each called "A Sketch of" a region, ask you to bring that region to 100 percent and pay out a Lenalia's Sketch plus a weapon. Once you hold all ten sketches, the last quest, Toward the Future, completes Lenalia's murals and adds a credits replay to the Central Hyrule map. - [Aside Quests](https://zeldacentral.com/games/hyrule-warriors-age-of-imprisonment/quests/aside-quests/): Aside quests are small personal requests that every warrior except the Knight Construct makes once The Art of the Blade is cleared and you have handed in the quest "Learning the Blade" (3 Golden Apple). Each request is a short set of two or three tasks, such as defeating a number of enemies as that warrior, smashing weak points, or enhancing weapons, and every task pays out on its own. Tasks are done during ordinary battles and challenges, new tasks only appear after the current set is finished, and clearing a warrior's requests works toward a Bonus Conversation with them. This page lists all 185 requests, 486 tasks in total. - [Service and Support Quests](https://zeldacentral.com/games/hyrule-warriors-age-of-imprisonment/quests/service-quests/): Seven groups of quests in Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment are not tied to one warrior: Services, Improve Services, Material Sensor, Battle Support, Items, Improve All Allies and Camp quests, 79 in all. You finish each one on the Hyrule map by handing over a list of materials, and the reward is usually permanent: a new facility, a higher weapon level cap, more room for Zonaite Steel, an extra Special Ration, or a stat bonus for your whole roster. The tables below give every quest with its region, what unlocks it, what to hand in and what you receive. - [Character Quests](https://zeldacentral.com/games/hyrule-warriors-age-of-imprisonment/quests/character-quests/): Every one of the 19 warriors has a set of character quests on the Hyrule map, 298 in all, and each one is finished by handing in materials rather than fighting. The quests make the warrior stronger for good: they raise basic-action levels, add bonus hearts and special-attack gauge sections, unlock Fuse Attacks and, for most warriors, unlock or enhance unique skills. A warrior's first quests appear when that warrior joins your roster, and the later ones open as you clear story battles, map challenges and, finally, the whole story. Each section below summarises what a warrior's quests unlock and lists every quest with its region, the step that opens it, the materials to hand in and the reward. - [Vicious Battles](https://zeldacentral.com/games/hyrule-warriors-age-of-imprisonment/challenges/vicious-battles/): There are 16 Vicious Battles in Age of Imprisonment, and they sit at the top of the optional challenge list.

They appear on the map once you finish A Clash of Constructs, they are recommended for Lv 70 to Lv 85, and every one pays Pure Zonaite Steel (Pristine) plus rare materials and parts from the Vicious monster. - [Scouting Challenges](https://zeldacentral.com/games/hyrule-warriors-age-of-imprisonment/challenges/scouting-challenges/): There are eight Scouting Challenges, and clearing each one permanently unlocks a new warrior: Quino, Lago, Pinnec, Cadlan, Sholani, Ronza, Braton and Pastos. They are optional Challenges that appear on the map as the story advances, the first at the start of Chapter 3 and the last during Chapter 4. Vence, the one other recruit you might expect here, is not recruited through a Challenge; see the characters page. - [Challenges Lv 51-90](https://zeldacentral.com/games/hyrule-warriors-age-of-imprisonment/challenges/level-51-90/): There are 44 late-game challenges between recommended levels 53 and 90, and only two of them pay Korok Seeds. The first five open after The Battle of Hyrule Castle, most of the next 28 belong to the post-game that begins once you beat A Clash of Constructs, and the last eleven were added by the free updates. Each entry below says when it opens, which warriors you can bring, what you fight and what your first clear gives you. - [Challenges Lv 31-50](https://zeldacentral.com/games/hyrule-warriors-age-of-imprisonment/challenges/level-31-50/): The middle of the game holds 57 optional challenges for recommended levels 31 to 50, and the highest recommended level among them is 45. They open between The Crimson Omen and the end of Chapter 4: 14 sit at Lv 31-33, 23 at Lv 36-39 and 20 at Lv 41-45. Each is a one-time fight with its own warrior rules and a fixed first-clear reward, and five of them pay Korok Seeds (21 in total). The scouting challenges that recruit new warriors are on Scouting Challenges, and the Vicious Battles have their own page, Vicious Battles. - [Challenges Lv 1-30](https://zeldacentral.com/games/hyrule-warriors-age-of-imprisonment/challenges/level-1-30/): There are 42 early challenges between recommended levels 3 and 30, and they are optional battles that appear on the map as you work through the first sixteen story battles. Six sit in the Lv 1-10 band, four in Lv 11-20 and thirty-two in Lv 21-30. Each entry below says when it opens, which warriors you can use, who you fight and what you receive for your first clear. A Time for Review also hides two Korok Seeds on its battlefield (see Korok Seed Locations), covered in its entry below; the rest are played for materials, Rupees and weapons. - [A Clash of Constructs Walkthrough (Chapter 6, Battle 28)](https://zeldacentral.com/games/hyrule-warriors-age-of-imprisonment/walkthrough/a-clash-of-constructs/): The final story battle is a rematch with the Forbidden Construct, the corrupted machine known as the Vessel of Darkness, that you first faced in The Crimson Omen. It has three phases: a ground duel, an aerial flight section, and a second ground duel that you end by wearing it down to about a quarter of its health. Winning triggers the ending, and the post-game opens afterwards. - [The Final Confrontation Walkthrough (Chapter 5, Battle 27)](https://zeldacentral.com/games/hyrule-warriors-age-of-imprisonment/walkthrough/the-final-confrontation/): This is the fight against Ganondorf himself. With Zelda and Rauru, you defeat a first wave of gloomed enemies and a Silver Lynel, survive a summon of Phantom Ganons, and then face the Demon King. Winning opens the last story battle, A Clash of Constructs. - [The Battle of Hyrule Field Walkthrough (Chapter 5, Battle 26)](https://zeldacentral.com/games/hyrule-warriors-age-of-imprisonment/walkthrough/the-battle-of-hyrule-field/): This battle is one large brawl instead of an outpost run. You win by emptying the Demon King's army gauge, the red bar on the right side of the screen, which draws out the last Archfiend, Grimgibdo, for the final fight. The reward is a weapon and first-clear materials, so the whole battle comes down to the fight itself. - [The Demon King, Ensnared Walkthrough (Chapter 5, Battle 25)](https://zeldacentral.com/games/hyrule-warriors-age-of-imprisonment/walkthrough/the-demon-king-ensnared/): This is the fourth battle of Chapter 5, and it is a march across Hyrule Field toward a targeted position, with the objective "Head for the targeted position while defeating the enemy forces". Along the way you take outposts, defeat a string of named enemies (Black Moblin, Silver Lynel, Captain Construct III, Silver Moblin, a gloomed Stone Talus, Fire Boss Bokoblin, Fire Moblin and Silver Boss Bokoblin), and finish by killing three Phantom Ganons. It holds three Korok Seeds and four treasure chests, so collect them before the final fight. ## Wallpapers - [Tears of the Kingdom Official Wallpaper – Link & Zelda](https://zeldacentral.com/wallpapers/tears-of-the-kingdom-official-wallpaper-link-zelda/): ​The "Tears of the Kingdom Official Wallpaper – Link & Zelda in Air" is a captivating digital artwork that portrays Link and Princess Zelda suspended mid-air, symbolizing their unity and the grandeur of their adventure.
