Shrine of Gamelon

Non-Canon Information

Template:Place The Shrine of Gamelon is a location in The Wand of Gamelon. It is unlocked after completing Gobiyan Ship.

Features and Overview

The Shrine of Gamelon is a mountainous region located in west Gamelon within the island's mountain stretch. A small shrine sits on its summit, which holds the titular Wand of Gamelon. Statues resembling the Buddha also appear along the mountain sides. The climb to the shrine is made difficult due to the region's sloped roads and high number of Phyrandaii which come cascading down the mountain. Impa also appears close to the mountain base, who reveals through the Triforce of Wisdom that the minion Omfak is guarding the shrine and the wand.

The region is divided into two sections that Zelda must climb, with the second being more rocky than the last. Here Phyrandaii continue to rain down the mountain side, while numerous Deadites also attempt to assault Zelda on her way up. At the top of this summit is the shrine, where a giant monument is kept. Here Zelda faces the shape-shifting Omfak. After he is defeated, the Wand of Gamelon is revealed. A Triforce Map in the corner takes Zelda back to the world map screen.

Enemies and Traps

Trivia

The beginning section of the stage is slightly reminiscent of Nintendo's arcade game Donkey Kong. The area's sloped roads bares a resemblance to the game's 25m level, with Phyrandaii replacing the barrels that roll down the sides.
In an advertisement of The Wand of Gamelon, a game screen from this area shows Zelda fighting Deadites and a Daira. As Dairas do not appear here in the final game, they may have originally appeared in early versions of the game.
