The third dungeon in the game, the [[Great Bay Temple]], shows even more than anything else in the entire game about technology in Termina. Theorized to be built either by [[Zora]]s or by divine intervention, the temple serves as a power generating plant, operating thanks to giant waterwheels, water-based elevators, and generators; neon lights illuminate the doors and passages, suggesting that part of the water's mechanic energy being turned into electric energy. Given the dungeon's position at the mouth of the bay, it may generate electricity via the {{wp|Tidal power|power of the tides}}. Such tidal power plants have only been built in a limited scale in the real world. No other dungeon or place in the series, with the possible exception of the [[Lanayru Mining Facility]], has featured this unprecedented level of technology. | The third dungeon in the game, the [[Great Bay Temple]], shows even more than anything else in the entire game about technology in Termina.

The | The {{Term|Series|Little Brother Beaver|link}} is equipped with a suit whose multi-colored fans allow him to move better across the river, and also has rotating glasses around his eyes, likely for a better sight underwater. This extra equipment is probably because, due to his younger age than his brother's, he has yet to learn how to swim naturally. | ||
