The Black Tower still stands tall over Labrynna to the present day, 400 years after it served as the site of the final battle between the Hyrulean Hero and the Soceress of Shadows. Unfortunately, its dark history never completely faded, and this tarnished its reputation even in future generations to some degee, leaving some citizens of Labrynna uneasy about it. It is perhaps most well known for the famous final battle that took place at its summit, overshadowing its original intent as a symbol of love rather than suffering or conflict. The memory of the struggle that took place atop the Black Tower was reinforced by a series of statues of Link that were built after the battle by order of Queen Ambi in Link's honor for saving her and ridding Labrynna of Veran. Still, the tower withstood the test of time and remains a remarkable feat of accomplishment that added to the fame of the queen who commissioned its construction.

==Architecture and Design==

The Black Tower is shown to have been built with a design that falls in line with typical medieval towers or castles. It was constructed using black bricks and grey grout, hence the tower's nickname as the "Black Tower" that not only conforms to its dark purpose but also is descriptive of its aesthetic appearance. However, some of its features are unique, such as the hideous statues that adorn its upper levels, bearing a close similarity to the [[Medusa Head]] featured in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons|Oracle of Seasons]]'', and the strange yet original design for the top of the tower, which appears to have a disc-like structure situated atop the roof of the tower's higest turret, acting as the capping feature for the tower's top. The tower rises clear into the heavens, towering high over Labrynna and making it visible from nearly any point throughout the land and far out to sea. From a distance, the tower has an impressive appearance that gives a sense of power or prestige, as was the intention of Queen Ambi after she was convinced that the tower would guarantee her a spot of fame in history. Up close and within however, the tower's decorations and labyrinth-like path to the turret can at times appear disturbing or even frightening to those who dare enter it and climb all the way to the turret at the tower's summit.
