It’s time to get back to work, so I headed down to Eldin Volcano. A Goron greeted me there, talking about goddess cubes in the area. Those are those squares that I have to hit with a charged-up sword to make something change up in the sky. Usually it’s a treasure chest that appears. Anyway, Smurf-Fi tells me that I can now dowse for goddess cubes. I was actually doing just that when I accidentally stumbled onto the spot for the third trial. I played my harp there.<\/p>\n

I then had to thrust my sword into the symbol on the ground and I was transported to the third trial, Din’s Silent Realm. As in the other trials, I have to find 15 tears to fill up my spirit vessel without getting hit even once. Collecting each one freezes most enemies for 90 seconds, but when time is up, they are brutal in attacking you. Those times are as intense as you’ll find in a Zelda game. You feel like you’re really running for your life when they start coming after you.<\/p>\n

This third trial was the hardest one yet. It took me a few tries, but I did get through it. My reward was the fireshield earrings, which protect me from intense heat. I’m not sure exactly how earrings can protect your whole body from the heat, but okay.<\/p>\n

I’m now looking for the third and final sacred flame. I solved a couple puzzles involving thirsty frogs and putting fires out to advance.<\/p>\n

But I ended up at another fire obstacle that couldn’t be solved the same way. I apparently have to go back to Lake Floria and talk to the water dragon. I will do that next time.<\/p>\n
