The {{Term/Store|Plains of Ruin|Plains of Ruin|Series, ALttP}} is a location in {{ALttP}}.<ref>{{Cite Guide|quote= |game= ALttP|publisher= Nintendo|page= 79}}</ref> It is the region surrounding the {{Term|ALttP|Swamp Palace|link}} in the [[Dark World]] and the dark counterpart of the [[Great Swamp]].


The '''Plains of Ruin''' is the name given to the region surrounding the [[Swamp Palace]] in the [[Dark World]] of ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|A Link to the Past]]''<ref>{{cite book|quote=Adventurers from the Light World could warp into the Plains of Ruin by stepping onto a hidden Warp Tile located just north of the lake, in the Light World swamp.|book=The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past Nintendo Player's Guide|publisher=Nintendo of America Inc.|page=79}}</ref>. It is the dark counterpart of the [[Great Swamp]].
==Features and Overview==
The Plains of Ruin is a very similar area to the one it reflects from the [[Light World]]. Its main feature are the marshes surrounding the dungeon to the south, which are heavily populated by [[Moblin]]s, [[Zirro]]s, [[Pikit]]s and other enemies. To the west of the swamp lies a canyon that leads to an impassable dead end, beyond which lies the [[Swamp of Evil]]. The [[Haunted Grove]] can be found to the northwest, where the [[Flute Boy]] can be found in his transformed state. A cave can be found using a [[Bomb]] in the northeast side of the marshes where a friendly [[Thief]] hides. Chests containing [[Red Rupee]]s can be found deeper in the cave. The northwest side of the marsh marks the point where someone using the Warp Tile in the Light World will appear. The [[Swamp Palace]] itself is easy enough to enter, but progress is impossible without draining the water from the outside into the dungeon. Doing this is only possible in the Light World, where draining the water from the ruins will do the same to its dark counterpart. Travelling north from the Plains of Ruin leads to the [[Bomb Shop]] south of the [[Pyramid of Power]], and east leads to the [[Ice Lake]].

*Pulling on the bottom of the northeastern-most statue in the swamp will reveal four [[Blue Rupee]]s. Strangely, performing a Dash Bash on the statue on the small island in the very center will reveal many [[Apple]]s.
