Phantom Sword



The Phantom Sword is the only thing that can harm Bellum and Phantoms in The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass. It is composed of three types of Pure Metals.

Components of the Phantom Blade
Link is told to find three forms of Pure Metals: Crimsonine Steel, Azurine Steel, and Aquanine Steel, and take them to the legendary blacksmith Zauz to forge the Phantom Sword. After Zauz completes the sword Link must complete the blade by returning to Oshus and merging the Phantom Hourglass with the blade itself.

Phantom Sword
Although the sword is shaped completely differently from the Master Sword, it shares much of the coloring.

In essence, getting the Pure Metals in order to get the Phantom Sword is a new version of the old quest introduced in A Link To The Past and that has been used in The Legend of Zelda series on several occasions thereafter. This quest requires Link to find three similar objects in the colors red, green and blue in order to get access to a sacred sword. However, the purpose of the items needed is claimed to be different - in A Link to the Past, they are meant to prove the attributes of the wielder, while in Phantom Hourglass, obtaining them only proves empathy and service to the respective tribes. Finally, the familiar Master Sword music plays when Link acquires the Phantom Sword.
