Lanayru Mining Facility is a dungeon in Skyward Sword, located within Lanayru Desert. It was the main industrial complex of an unnamed civilization or corporation that had died out. The dungeon is full of sand that has built up over time. The facility also contains a large number of Timeshift Stones that were mined from the earth, as well as many ruined and disused systems that come to life when the Timeshift Stones are activated.

Themes and Navigation

Inside the facility, the sand proves as difficult to navigate as outside, requiring plenty of stamina to dash across. Also found inside the facility's walls are a number of minecarts and conveyor systems that have fallen into disrepair. The use of Timeshift Stones will allow Link to restore these systems to life and help him trigger switches in order to further proceed into the dungeon. However, link must evade the rugged piles of mined minerals and electrical walls as he navigates the conveyor belts. Stamina fruits are occasionally dropped, allowing Link to continue running across the belts. The past also contains several mechanical sentries, powered by ancient and relatively unknown technology, which Link must defeat in order to proceed.

Large piles of softer sand frequently appears alongside the dangerous sinksand, and although they rarely impede movement, the piles frequently hide switches, treasures, or enemies. Link must use the Gust Bellow to blow away the sand and reveal what it hides. Link will have to continue to activate Timeshift Stones and use the Gust Bellows as he travels deeper into the dungeon. Several mechanical platforms must be moved by using the Gust Bellows to make them move, and some switches are triggered in this fashion as well. Timeshift Stones on moving minecarts have to be used at some points, meaning the player must move quickly and precisely to ensure that tasks they need to do in the small past area are completed.
