The Earth Temple has a design akin to the Eastern motifs of the temples and sanctuaries in | The Earth Temple has a design akin to the Eastern motifs of the temples and sanctuaries in Mongolia. As in the case of the [[Skyview Temple]], it shows signs of deterioration, and is very compact, but once again it's compensated with the size of the rooms, as well as the population of enemies. | ||
A major part of the temple is traversed by logrolling on a large stone eyeball, because most of the central room and the east area is filled with lava. Enemies such as [[Keese#Fire Keese|Fire Keese]] and [[Spume|Magma Spume]] will try to knock the young hero off the stone eyeball. Magma Spume can be rolled over and killed using the eyeball. [[Lizalfos]] also appear frequently, and a pair of them are fought as the dungeon's minibosses. The dungeon's treasure is the Bomb Bag, which originally belonged to [[Ledd]] but is given to Link for helping him. The dungeon is filled with [[Bomb Flower]]s, which can be used to solve puzzles or fill the Bomb Bag. There is a large number of bomb rocks, including a few that must be destroyed from on top of the eyeball. The boss of the Earth Temple is [[Scaldera]], who is ordered to attack Link by [[Ghirahim]], furious at [[Princess Zelda|Zelda's]] escape. | A major part of the temple is traversed by logrolling on a large stone eyeball, because most of the central room and the east area is filled with lava.
