The {{Term/Store|Skyview Temple||Series, SS, SSHD}} is an ancient structure that serves as the first {{Term|SSHD|Dungeon|link}} in {{SS}}.<ref>{{Cite Book|quote= |book= HH |publisher= |page= 43}}</ref><ref>{{Cite|Skyview Temple|Dungeon Map|SSHD}}</ref>
==Entrance to the {{Term|SSHD|Skyview Temple}}==
To reach the {{Term|SSHD|Skyview Temple}}, {{Term|SSHD|Link|link}} must make his way through the {{Term|SSHD|Deep Woods|link}} area during his search for {{Term|SSHD|Zelda|link}}. After aiding {{Term|SSHD|Bucha|link}}, the {{Term|SSHD|Kikwi|link}} elder, in locating the missing {{Plural|SSHD|Kikwi}}, he will give {{Term|SSHD|Link}} the {{Term|SSHD|Slingshot|link}}. {{Term|SSHD|Bucha}} will also tell {{Term|SSHD|Link}} that he saw a young girl that looked just like him heading towards Skyview Temple.<ref>{{Cite|That young girl...Zelda-was that her name? Yes...it's all coming back to me. She said she had to travel to the temple deep within these woods, kweee... Oho! I tried to warn her about how dangerous it was there, but the clever little thing vaulted off my belly and ran off on her own just the same. I think she headed down that way toward the temple, kwee...but be sure to take great care if you follow her. That area is crawling with monsters.|Bucha|SSHD}}</ref> He can use the {{Term|SSHD|Slingshot}} to open the path to {{Term|SSHD|Deep Woods}}, which leads to the {{Term|SSHD|Skyview Temple}}. However, the door leading inside the {{Term|SSHD|Dungeon|link}} is sealed shut. To open the door to the temple, {{Term|SSHD|Link}} must hit a {{Term|SSHD|Crystal Switch|link}} above the entrance by using his {{Term|SSHD|Slingshot}}.<ref>{{Cite|He who descended from above: look to the star that the bird rising heavenward gazes upon, and aim your shot there.|Stone Tablet|SSHD}}</ref>

===First Visit===
[[File:Deku Baba Ceiling.jpg|thumb|right|300px|{{Term|SS|Link}} using the {{Term|SS|Beetle}} to defeat some {{Plural|SS|Deku Baba|link}} on the ceiling]]
The {{Term|SSHD|Skyview Temple}}, true to its location, has a forest motif. It is a network of gloomy passages in which luminescent plants and fungi grow. Several parts of its internal architecture are in ruins, and the last room even houses a large chasm {{Term|SSHD|Link|link}} crosses with the help of {{Plural|SSHD|Vines|link}}. Part of the temple is flooded with {{Term|SSHD|Water (Terrain)|link}} and can be used to {{Term|SSHD|Link}}'s advantage. The {{Term|SSHD|Skyview Temple}} only has one floor, but it makes up for it with the huge size of its rooms, as well as the large variety of enemies that inhabit the temple. Contrary to the name, the {{Term|SSHD|Skyview Temple}} is dark and most of the time does not have a view of the sky.
The temple often requires {{Term|SSHD|Link}} to hit {{Plural|SSHD|Crystal Switch|link}} with the {{Term|SSHD|Slingshot|link}} to change the {{Term|SSHD|Water (Terrain)}} level; raising the {{Term|SSHD|Water (Terrain)}} levels will allow the hero to access new passageways, which lead deeper into the {{Term|SSHD|Dungeon}}. Later, after defeating a {{Term|SSHD|Stalfos|link}} {{Term|SSHD|Sub-Boss|link}}, {{Term|SSHD|Link}} will be rewarded with the {{Term|SSHD|Beetle|link}}, a mechanical insect-shaped tool he can pilot towards inaccessible spots, which allows him to hit certain {{Plural|SSHD|Crystal Switch}} he could not before, in turn allowing him to open doors that lead to new rooms or even collect a {{Term|SSHD|Piece of Heart|link}}. It also grants him the ability to cut certain ropes and webs around the Temple, creating paths and shortcuts, making crates fall to the ground, making {{Plural|SSHD|Skulltula|link}} directly vulnerable to terrestrial attacks, and defeating {{Plural|SSHD|Deku Baba|link}} by cutting their stems.
The {{Term|SSHD|Boss|link}} of the {{Term|SSHD|Skyview Temple}} is {{Term|SSHD|Ghirahim|link}}, who is defeated by avoiding striking his guard with {{Term|SSHD|Link}}'s sword, or by countering one of his attacks. Upon learning that {{Term|SSHD|Zelda}}'s presence from the temple has faded, {{Term|SSHD|Ghirahim}} teleports away, leaving behind a {{Term|SSHD|Heart Container|link}} for {{Term|SSHD|Link}} to collect.<ref>{{Cite|I fear I spent far too long teasing and toying with you. The girl's presence has all but faded from this place, which means there's no reason to linger here. Good-bye, sky child. Run and play this time. Get in my way again, though, and you're dead.|Ghirahim|SSHD}}</ref>
Upon exiting the temple, {{Term|SSHD|Link}} comes across the scenic {{Term|SSHD|Skyview Spring|link}}. {{Term|SSHD|Link}} intends to find {{Term|SSHD|Zelda}} at the spring, but his fight with {{Term|SSHD|Ghirahim}} prevents that. At the end of the spring, {{Term|SSHD|Link}} finds a {{Term|SSHD|Goddess Crest|link}}, which he activates to receive a message from {{Term|SSHD|Hylia|link}}. {{Term|SSHD|Fi|link}} translates that {{Term|SSHD|Zelda}} has set off for a second sacred place similar to {{Term|SSHD|Skyview Spring}}, known as the {{Term|SSHD|Earth Spring|link}}.<ref>{{Cite|Master, as I just translated, it would appear that Zelda purified herself in the waters of this spring. I calculate a 97% chance that she has already set out for Eldin, where another great spring exists. However, it is not clear what method of travel Zelda used to move from here to her next destination.|Fi|SS}}</ref><ref>{{Cite|From the edge of time I guide you, the one chosen to carry out the goddess's mission. The spirit maiden who descended from the clouds must travel to two sacred places to purify her body. You stand in one of these places: Skyview Spring. The other is known as the Earth Spring. This second spring is hidden away deep within the scorched earth of Eldin. The spirit maiden, ever mindful of the heavy task entrusted to her, has set out for this second sacred place.|Fi|SS}}</ref> After the translation is complete, {{Term|SSHD|Link}} receives the {{Term|SSHD|Ruby Tablet|link}} which creates a rift in the clouds leading to {{Term|SSHD|Eldin Volcano|link}}.
===Second Visit===
[[File:Three Stalfos.jpg|thumb|right|300px|The three {{Term|SS|Stalfos|link}} fought at the end]]
Uniquely among the {{Plural|SSHD|Dungeon|link}} in {{SS|-}}, the {{Term|SSHD|Skyview Temple}} must be returned to at least once. Upon meeting {{Term|SSHD|Faron (Dragon)|link}}, the {{Term|SSHD|Dragon|link|display=Water Dragon}}, she informs {{Term|SSHD|Link|link}} that she has been gravely injured while defending {{Term|SSHD|Lake Floria|link}} from {{Term|SSHD|Ghirahim|link}}'s minions. She asks the young hero to retrieve more {{Term|SSHD|Sacred Water|link}} from {{Term|SSHD|Skyview Temple}}'s {{Term|SSHD|Skyview Spring|link}} because her water has lost its special healing, and says that she will reveal the location of {{Term|SSHD|Farore's Flame|link|display=Farore's Sacred Flame}} to the hero in return.<ref>{{Cite|The wounds he's given me are stubborn things. I have been forced to recuperate in this basin of {{Color|SSHD Blue|sacred water}}. Unfortunately, the healing properties of the sacred water have diminished, and I am now in need of another dose to freshen up my healing bath. {{Color|SSHD Red|Bring me the container of fresh sacred water}} that I require. Do me this favor, and I'll gladly show you where to find the sacred flame you desire.|Faron (Dragon)|SSHD}}</ref> Although it is not necessary to visit every part of the {{Term|SSHD|Skyview Temple}} again, the route to the {{Term|SSHD|Skyview Spring}} is not completely straight and uninterrupted, as some pathways have been blocked off, necessitating new solutions to previous puzzles. Additionally, new and stronger enemies appear to have infested the temple, including {{Plural|SSHD|Froak|link}} and many {{Plural|SSHD|Bokoblin Archer|link}}.<ref>{{Cite|I am detecting a greater enemy presence in the vicinity than I previously observed. You would be wise to proceed with caution.|Fi|SSHD}}</ref> Upon reaching the room where {{Term|SSHD|Link}} fought {{Term|SSHD|Ghirahim}} the first time around, he must now take on a trio of {{Plural|SSHD|Stalfos|link}}. After retrieving the {{Term|SSHD|Sacred Water}} and giving it to {{Term|SSHD|Faron (Dragon)}}, she becomes healed and in turn, she grants {{Term|SSHD|Link}} access to the {{Term|SSHD|Ancient Cistern|link}}.

*If {{Term|SSHD|Link|link}} does not take the {{Term|SSHD|Heart Container|link}} after defeating {{Term|SSHD|Ghirahim|link}} in the first visit, it will reappear after the fight against the {{Plural|SSHD|Stalfos|link}} on the second visit.
*After the {{Term|SSHD|Sub-Boss|link}} battle, the arena will contain a {{Term|SSHD|Stalfos|link}} and {{Term|SSHD|Skulltula|link}} which can be defeated to reveal a {{Term|SSHD|Treasure Chest|link}}.{{Clarify}}
*The background music changes as {{Term|SSHD|Link}} progresses further into the {{Term|SSHD|Skyview Temple}}.
