← All areas in this guide
Link enters Faron Woods covered in Twilight as a wolf alongside Midna. He must acquire the Vessel of Light and hunt down the invisible Shadow Insects across the misty woods to collect Tears of Light. Restoring light to the area revives the Spring of Faron and returns Link to his human form.
Enemies
Shadow Beast
Weak to Midna's energy field attack
Must defeat the final two or three simultaneously, or they will screech and revive each other
Shadow Insect
Weak to Normal wolf bites or Midna's energy field
Only visible while using wolf senses; drops a Tear of Light upon defeat
Shadow Keese
Weak to Wolf bites or jumping attacks
Flying Twilight bat variants that swoop down at Link
Shops and people
- Light Spirit Faron: Bestows the Vessel of Light and restores Link's human body once all Tears are collected
Tips
- Toggle your senses frequently to reveal the glowing white bodies of the Shadow Insects, as they cannot be targeted or harmed in normal vision.
- Dig under the locked door of Coro's house using your senses to reach the insects hidden inside.
- When fighting the group of three Shadow Beasts, eliminate one first, then hold Midna's charge attack to trap and destroy the remaining two at the exact same time.
