Bringing the two Sols to the '''Pedestals of Light'''<ref>{{Cite|Without the Sols, the Pedestals of Light are without their sparkle...|Midna|TP}}</ref> in front of the [[Palace of Twilight]] enables their light to be infused into the [[Master Sword]]. Placing a Sol on special pedestals can cause platforms and steps to appear. Bringing a Sol near a cursed Twili will cause the Twili to revert to its original form. Curiously, if any Twili are left in their transformed state when both Sols are returned to the Pedestals of Light, they will revert to their original form regardless of whether or not Link brings the Master Sword to them.
