Link enters the mirror chamber in LoZ: Twilight Princess. The Mirror Chamber is a room located above the Arbiter's Grounds, but Link cannot gain access until after he defeats Stallord, the dungeon's boss. When Link and Midna first enter the Mirror Chamber, they find it broken, but the broken pieces are no where to be found. Also called the Mirror of Twilight, Midna explains how the mirror allows people from the light world and denizens of the Twilight Realm to pass through freely between both worlds. It was originally created by the gods to send the world's most evil and wicked villians to the Twilight Realm, a prison where none could escape. This is where they also learn about another evil villian, one who was unable to be contained and escaped the grasp of the ancient sages. A man of the Gerudo Tribe by the name of Ganondorf.

The five sages appear and describe how the broken mirror is the evil work of the evil one known as Zant. From this point, Link and Midna begin a new quest in order to retrieve three missing mirror shards to repair the mirror.

Upon returning with the three missing shards, Link and Midna repair the mirror. Midna tells a short, but upseting tale of how she was trying to use Link to help return her world, the Twilight Realm, to order. It was a peaceful place until Zant overthrew Midna, the Twilight Princess, and claimed the throne as his. From this point, Link begins his journey into the Twilight Realm once more. The mirror takes him to an area of the realm he has never been to before. It is also here that the eighth dungeon, the Palace of Twilight, lies, and where Link must put an end to the evil emperor Zant.
