Sword Monk's Shrine

The Trial of the Sword is a challenge in added in the Master Trials DLC Pack.

Themes and Navigation
The Trial of the Sword can be accessed from the Korok Forest by placing the Master Sword in its pedestal. During the challenge, Link must defeat every enemy in a room to proceed to the next one. At the start of the trial, he is stripped from all of his equipment, weapons, and food. The Trial of the Sword is divided in three sets of rooms. Once a set is completed, it can be skipped afterwards if the trial is abandoned; however, Link will start empty handed when resumed, as any item gathered during the challenge will be lost.

After completing all 45 rooms, the Master Sword awakens its true power, allowing it to stay in its powered-up state while usable.

Trivia

 * The Trial of the Sword was originally called the Cave of Trials during the Expansion Pass announcement.
