Torch (Object)

Torches are found in nearly all Zelda games, usually within dungeons. Lighting them can have various results, including opening doors or causing treasure chests to appear. Sometimes they must be lit using a switch, or by clearing the room of enemies, or simply lit directly by using fire (e.g burning Deku Stick, Fire Arrow, Din's Fire etc.) Sometimes, many torches must be lit simultaneously for something to happen. Torches are often seen in towns, but these usually serve no purpose, except that they light the area. In Majora's Mask, there are golden colored torches which cannot be lit by a Fire Arrows, Deku Sticks, or any other use of direct fire. Instead, they are lit when a certain action has been completed by Link. This can lead to bar locked doors opening, chests appearing, etc.
