Force Gem 11
Force Gem 11 is an Item in Spirit Tracks.[1]
Location and Uses
Force Gem 11 is an optional Force Gem that can be obtained after Link has delivered Mega Ice to Goron Village, dousing the Lava Geysers that blocked access to the village's homes. Soon afterward, Link receives a Letter from Ferrus stating that he is out photographing Armored Trains and suggests that Link pay him a visit.[2] The Letter includes a picture of a location in the Snow Realm, which can be deduced as the southwest area of the Spirit Tracks outside of the Snow Temple. Link can drive the Spirit Train to this location and meet with Ferrus, who asks the young engineer if he could be taken to meet his hero and all-time favorite engineer, Alfonzo.[3]
Upon arrival in Aboda Village, Ferrus excitedly makes his way to Alfonzo's House to strike up a conversation with his hero, and Link can follow him inside witness the encounter.[4] Ferrus begins gushing with admiration and asks for an autograph,[5] but Alfonzo is puzzled by his apparent fame, having assumed he was known as a legendary swordsman, rather than a legendary engineer.[6] Eventually, Ferrus turns to Link and admits that the encounter wasn't going as well as he'd hoped, but thanks him anyway for the train ride by producing a Force Gem.[7]
Force Gem 11 creates a new section of Spirit Tracks primarily in the Forest Realm. The tracks pass through a tunnel behind Hyrule Castle and branch to the west to join with the tracks from Force Gem 5, as well as north and into the Snow Realm, emerging near the Bridge Worker's Home.

Your buddy,
Ferrus" — From Ferrus (Spirit Tracks) - ↑ "But on another note, aren't you the apprentice of the legendary Alfonzo? He's my all-time favorite engineer! My hero. LOVE THAT GUY. Oh, I just had a sudden brainflash! You could introduce me to him! I carry a pen and paper on me at all times just for situations like these. So, please please please take me to get my hero's autograph. You'll do it, won't you?" — Ferrus (Spirit Tracks)
- ↑ "And is that where Alfonzo lives? THE Alfonzo?! Whoa whoa WHOA! I can't believe I'm this close to such a megacelebrity! Oh, man, I'm SOOOO excited to meet him! Well, here I go!" — Ferrus (Spirit Tracks)
- ↑ "OHMYGOSH, I can't believe you're asking MY name! I'm Ferrus, your biggest fan! I even have dreams about meeting you! You're a living locomotive legend! [...] Yes, YOU! The legendary engineer Alfonzo! And here you are, standing right in front of me! I'm so excited, I might pass out! Um, could I please have your autograph, sir?" — Ferrus (Spirit Tracks)
- ↑ "A legend? Me? [...] Well, I don't know if I'm a legendary engineer. But back when I was a knight, people used to call me a legendary swordsman. Especially after I did 900 reps in sword training!" — Alfonzo (Spirit Tracks)
- ↑ "Well, this wasn't quite as exciting as I thought it would be... But at least I got to ride in that sweet train of yours. So, as my way of saying thanks, please take this!" — Ferrus (Spirit Tracks)
