Piece of Power

The Piece of Power is a temporary upgrade to Link's sword attacks in Link's Awakening. It is triangular shaped, slightly resembling the Triforce. These are dropped by common enemies, similar to Rupees, but are much rarer; one will be activated as soon as Link touches it. The item will be denoted by a change in music and causing Link's sword to flash. The item causes Link's sword to deal double damage and to send enemies flying when he hits them. This also results in a larger explosion when an enemy dies. It is one of two temporary upgrades available, the other being the Guardian Acorn.
