When [[Link]] tries to access the control room on the Sandship, Tentalus appears and nearly destroys the whole vessel with its massive tentacles. Due to Tentalus' immense size, Link cannot significantly damage or even reach the majority of its body; only when the boss' eye is within reach of Link's [[Sword]] can legitimate damage be applied. To obtain [[Nayru's Flame]], Link must best the beast in battle atop the crushed ship's deck. | When [[Link]] tries to access the control room on the Sandship, Tentalus appears and nearly destroys the whole vessel with its massive tentacles.

After opening the door to the Sandship's power room with the [[Squid Carving]], the battle begins.

During his ascent, Tentalus's tentacles burst through the side of the ship, halting his progress. Link uses a [[Skyward Strike]] perpendicular to the tentacles' orientation to destroy them; the rocking of the ship dislodges barrels that also impede Link's progress to the ship's deck. | ||
After | After Link climbs to the deck, Tentalus reveals itself by emerging from the sea and engages the young hero in battle. Link avoids Tentalus's tentacles and continues to remove them with perpendicular Skyward Strikes or the [[Bow]]'s [[Arrow]]s. Once several tentacles have been removed, Tentalus surfaces from the waves and attempts to damage Link with its arms. Link must then shoot its large eye with an Arrow, stunning it. While it is stunned, Link must then attack it directly with his Sword. In addition, by cutting off Tentalus's tentacle "hair", Link may receive more Arrows and [[Heart]]s. After enough damage has been dealt, Tentalus breaks part of the deck, causing a few barrels to fall towards Link, and a crate also falls from the higher level of the deck. Using the crate, Link must then climbs up to the upper level, where the battle continues. | ||
Tentalus continues to attack in much of the same manner and is damaged in the same way. However, instead of attacking with its tentacles from below, it attacks with its toothed tentacle "hair", which is repelled by quick Sword slashes on Link's part. Alternatively, Link may jump off the deck once the hair appears. Doing so yields Link no damage, and allows him enough time to aim a shot at Tentalus's eye before the "hair" returns. | Tentalus continues to attack in much of the same manner and is damaged in the same way.
