The {{Term/Store|Isle of the Dead||Series, PH}} is an island in {{PH}}.<ref>{{Cite Book|quote= |book= E |publisher= |page= 284}}</ref> It is located in the {{Term|PH|Northeastern Sea|link}}.

==Features and Overview==

After obtaining the Northeastern {{Term|PH|Sea Chart|link}}, {{Term|PH|Link|link}} arrives at the {{Term|PH|Isle of the Dead}} in search of the {{Plural|PH|Pure Metal|link}}. Near the shore is a small cave containing the journal of the explorer McNey,<ref>{{Cite|The Journal of the Esteemed Explorer, McNey.|Book|PH}}</ref> who had surmised that the island resembles a king's head,<ref>{{Cite|Normally on a map, up is {{Color|PH Red|north}}, down is {{Color|PH Red|south}}, right is {{Color|PH Red|east}}, and left is {{Color|PH Red|west}}. But looking at a map today, I discovered the secret of this island. This island is shaped like the profile of someone wearing a crown!|Book|PH}}</ref> and believes that solving the island's cryptic puzzles will lead him to the {{Term|PH|Aquanine|link}}.<ref>{{Cite|There is supposed to be some absurdly cryptic puzzle or trick there. But with my keen explorer sense, I should have it solved before lunch! I will find the {{Color|PH Red|Aquanine}} and show them all!|Book|PH}}</ref> Behind a bombable wall in the cave is a hidden room filled with {{Plural|PH|Rupoor|link}} and {{Plural|PH|Keese|link}}, whereby avoiding these traps leads {{Term|PH|Link}} to several {{Plural|PH|Treasure Chest|link}} containing a {{Term|PH|Wisdom Gem|link}}, {{Term|PH|Treasure Map 28|link}}, and two {{Plural|PH|Ship Part|link}}.

[[File:McNey.png|150px|thumb|left|Link encountering McNey in the Phantom Corridor]]Exiting the cave takes {{Term|PH|Link}} to the island proper, where {{Plural|PH|Stalfos|link}} and {{Plural|PH|Rupee Like|link}} await him. To the northwest is the closed-off sages' graveyard,<ref>{{Cite|Here rest the {{Color|PH Blue|six sages}} to whom the way to the temple is known. Those who do not know will never pass the {{Color|PH Red|Phantom Corridor}}.|Stone Tablet|PH}}</ref> while to the northeast is the pyramid-shaped tomb of {{Term|PH|Brant|link}}, a knight of the {{Term|PH|Cobble|link|display=Cobble Kingdom}}.<ref>{{Cite|The resting place of the {{Color|PH Blue|fourth knight}}, {{Color|PH Blue|Brant}} of the {{Color|PH Blue|Cobble Kingdom}}.|Stone Tablet|PH}}</ref> Inside the tomb is the Phantom Corridor, an endless series of rooms where those without the knowledge of the sages will never proceed.<ref>{{Cite|{{Color|PH Red|Phantom Corridor}} ahead. Those without the way of the {{Color|PH Blue|six sages}} are doomed.|Stone Tablet|PH}}</ref> There, {{Term|PH|Link}} finds the remains of {{Term|PH|McNey}}, whose lingering spirit warns him to escape by walking south.<ref>{{Cite|Who knew it would come to this? My name is McNey. I was once a famous explorer... I entered before solving the {{Color|PH Red|entrance puzzle}} and came to the {{Color|PH Red|Phantom Corridor}}. But I could not get out. And look what happened. This maze is madness... If you don't know which way to go, you'll end up walking in circles. Circles... If I keep going down, I should be able to reach the entrance...|McNey|PH}}</ref> A nearby {{Term|PH|Stone Tablet|link}} provides a hint to accessing the graveyard.<ref>{{Cite|The sacred tree grows from the king's chin. {{Color|PH Red|West 13}} and {{Color|PH Red|north 7}}. The path to the graveyard where the six sages dwell, hidden underground.|Stone Tablet|PH}}</ref>

Starting from the {{Term|PH|Tree|link}} in the island's southeast—the "king's chin"—, {{Term|PH|Link}} must walk 13 tiles east and seven north, then use the {{Term|PH|Shovel|link}} to access an underground passage filled with rolling {{Plural|PH|Boulder|link}} and {{Plural|PH|Keese}}. Another bombable wall here leads to a hidden room filled with {{Plural|PH|Rupee}}, a {{Term|PH|Power Gem|link}}, and another hint.<ref>{{Cite|{{Color|PH Red|Face west}} from the {{Color|PH Red|king's eye}} and shoot an arrow.|Stone Tablet|PH}}</ref> At the end of the passage, stairs lead to an elevated portion of the island representing the "king's eye"; a small {{Term|PH|Treasure Chest|display=Chest}} containing {{Term|PH|Treasure Map 29}} is found up here. Firing an {{Term|PH|Arrow|link}} to the west will hit a {{Term|PH|Shock Switch|link}} that opens the graveyard's door.

 

Inside the graveyard are nine {{Plural|PH|Tombstone|link}} which more {{Plural|PH|Stalfos}} hide behind. While three of the {{Plural|PH|Tombstone}} have illegible messages,<ref>{{Cite|Most of the words have been worn off and can't be read...|N/A|PH}}</ref> the other six provide the directions through the Phantom Corridor.<ref>{{Cite|I am the first sage. Go {{Icon|PH Arrow Up}} north through the first room.|Tombstone|PH}}</ref> By following these directions, {{Term|PH|Link}} reaches the ghost of {{Term|PH|Brant}} at his tomb. Recognizing the {{Term|PH|Fairy}} spirits traveling with {{Term|PH|Link}},<ref>{{Cite|Those spirits you have with you, they are {{Color|PH Blue|Power}}, {{Color|PH Blue|Wisdom}}, and {{Color|PH Blue|Courage}}, yes?|Brant|PH}}</ref> {{Term|PH|Brant}} gives the young hero access to a {{Term|PH|Treasure Chest}} containing the {{Term|PH|Regal Necklace|link}}, which allows him to travel to the {{Term|PH|Isle of Ruins|link}}.<ref>{{Cite|{{Color|PH Blue|King Mutoh}}, the holder of the {{Color|PH Red|Aquanine}}, is not here. He is on the island that is guarded by a rock wall, the {{Color|PH Blue|Isle of Ruins}}. You'll need that {{Color|PH Red|Regal Necklace}} to get there. That will calm the cyclone at the entrance, so that your boat may pass.|Brant|PH}}</ref>
