The {{Term|FS|Chambers of Insight}} are a set of optional tutorial levels for learning various game mechanics and practicing the usage of items. {{Plural|FS|Stray Fairy|link}} scattered about the levels provide the {{Plural|FS|Links|link}} with guidance and advice.<ref>{{Cite|Welcome to our cave, young heroes!

===Second Floor===
The first set of {{Plural|FS|Warp Zone}} lead to a level teaching basic mechanics including {{Plural|FS|Rupee|link}}, {{Plural|FS|Switch|link}}, {{Plural|FS|Block|link}}, and {{Plural|FS|Platform|link}}.<ref>{{Cite|The lovely jewel you have found is a Rupee.

[[File:Chambers of Insight Map-2.png|right|190px||The destination of the second set of Warp Zones|thumb]]
The floor that the first set of Warp Zones lead to is much shorter than the first. It teaches how to lift rocks, press big switches, and how to defeat certain enemies, such as [[Nokkun]], [[Bob-omb]], and [[Hikkun]].


====Techniques Learned====
The second set of {{Plural|FS|Warp Zone}} lead to a level instructing how to lift large {{Plural|FS|Rock|link}}, other {{Plural|FS|Links|link}}, certain {{Plural|FS|Enemy}}, and blue {{Plural|FS|Crystal|link}}.<ref>{{Cite|If you all approach one side of a large rock and combine your might, you will be able to lift it over your heads!|Stray Fairy|FS}}</ref><ref>{{Cite|Press R to light the shining blue crystals.

*Rocks, grass, and pats can be lifted by pressing the R Button.<ref>{{Cite|Press R when standing before a tuft of grass, a rock, or a pot to lift it.|Stray Fairy|FS}}</ref>
**Big rocks can be lifted by having all Links combine their might.<ref>{{Cite|If you all approach one side of a large rock and combine your might, you will be able to lift it over your heads!|Stray Fairy|FS}}</ref>
**Companions can lift one another to throw them across gaps.<ref>{{Cite|You can even lift companions and throw them across gaps.|Stray Fairy|FS}}</ref>
*[[File:FS Hikkun Sprite.png]] [[Hikkun]]s are defeated by stunning them first and then having two Links pull from each side of the helmet.<ref>{{Cite|There are some monsters you cannot defeat unless you pull them from the left or right. Be wary of such beasts!|Stray Fairy|FS}}</ref>
*[[File:FS Bob-omb Sprite.png]] [[Bob-omb]]s can be lifted and thrown into fire to defeat them.<ref>{{Cite|There are some enemies you can lift over your head and throw. You can even throw them into flames!|Stray Fairy|FS}}</ref>

*[[File:Blue Crystal FS.gif]] Blue [[Crystal#Four Swords|Crystals]] must be picked up from their pedestal and carried them over to another pedestal. Upon doing so, certain devices will activate, such as a door opening to allow access to the next area. If Link drops a crystal and it shatters, he must start over again.<ref>{{Cite|Press R to light the shining blue crystals. Then press it again to place them on another pedestal.

===Floor of the Test===
{{Plural|FS|Warp Zone}} for the {{Term|FS|Bow|link}}, {{Term|FS|Pegasus Boots|link}}, {{Term|FS|Boomerang|link}}, {{Term|FS|Roc's Cape|link}}, and {{Term|FS|Magnetic Glove|link}} wrap around the room's perimeter.

This floor tests a mix of the puzzles and techniques introduced on the floors through the other Warp Zones.


===Item Warp Zones===
A central group of {{Plural|FS|Warp Zone}} marked with a question mark lead to a "final test" comprised of two levels.

In the northern portion of the chamber are Warp Zones leading to floors that teach the Links how to use all of the items appearing in the game, except the Gnat Hat encountered on the first floor and the rare [[Chain Chomp]]. They are also taught how to take advantage of the items' unique abilities and use them to solve various puzzles.

The Chambers of Insight are a Stage in Four Swords.[1]

Entrance to the Chambers

The Chambers of Insight can be selected from the Stage-Selection Screen at any time and have no prerequisite conditions. The entrance is marked by a domed yellow structure on an island in southeastern Hyrule.

Themes and Navigation

The Chambers of Insight are a set of optional tutorial levels for learning various game mechanics and practicing the usage of items. Stray Fairies scattered about the levels provide the Links with guidance and advice.[2] The main chamber is comprised of multiple Warp Zones that lead to levels focusing on certain mechanics or items.[3]

The first set of Warp Zones lead to a level teaching basic mechanics including Rupees, Switches, Blocks, and Platforms.[4][5] It also features Rupee Shard, Mystical Seeds, color-coded floor tiles, Whirlpools, and different types of Water.[6][7][8] Mechanics that involve more than one Link are introduced, including Big Blocks, Four-Directional Platforms, destructible stone barriers, and striking swords to light Torches.[9][10]

The second set of Warp Zones lead to a level instructing how to lift large Rocks, other Links, certain Enemies, and blue Crystals.[11][12] It also introduces Enemies that require two Links to defeat, namely Hikkun and Nokkun.[13]

Warp Zones for the Bow, Pegasus Shoes, Boomerang, Roc's Cape, and Magnetic Glove wrap around the room's perimeter. They introduce item-specific mechanics and objects such as Eyeball Switches for Bows, Cracked Walls for Bombs, and gates for the Roc's Cape.[14][15]

A central group of Warp Zones marked with a question mark lead to a "final test" comprised of two levels. It combines several of the mechanics previously learned and culminates in a fight with an Ice Wizzrobe.[16] The Chambers of Insight can be exited by using the southernmost set of Warp Zones.[17]
