Template:Place The Bridge of Eldin is a location in Twilight Princess.

Features and Overview

The Bridge of Eldin is a bridge found north of Kakariko Village. It crosses a deep gorge where Zora's River runs through, essentially connecting the Eldin Province to a path leading to the Lanayru Province.[1] It also serves as the main access road to the Hidden Village.[1]

After King Bulblin suddenly kidnaps Colin from Kakariko Village, he makes his way to the Bridge of Eldin, with Link in pursuit. Here, the two engage in horseback combat in which Link comes out victorious and ends up rescuing Colin from the Bulblin's grasp. Once the young hero clears the Goron Mines and goes past this bridge in way to the next province, a significant portion of the bridge is removed by Zant's Shadow Beasts, thus blocking the path. Defeating the beasts causes for a Twilight Portal to be created, but it cannot be used due to the bridge's removal.

Link eventually finds what appears to be the removed section of the Bridge of Eldin in the western part of the Gerudo Desert, right on the Gerudo Mesa. With the aid of Midna, the young hero warps back to the area where the bridge of Eldin was removed.[2] However, if Link did not defeat the Shadow Beasts that appeared after the bridge was removed, the portal will not appear and thus they will be unable to warp the missing section of the bridge. Once the portal is created, Midna will place the section back where it belongs, allowing Link to cross the bridge again.

Once Link receives the Ancient Sky Book from Shad, he will have to return to the Bridge of Eldin in order to receive a Sky Character from the Owl Statue situated in the northern section of the bridge. Moreover, by transporting the statue to the other side of the bridge and situating it exactly below a certain ledge will allow Link to jump over and obtain a Piece of Heart.

A male Golden Phasmid can also be found in the northern portion of the Bridge of Eldin.

Other Appearances

Link's Crossbow Training

In Link's Crossbow Training, the Bridge of Eldin appears as a Defender Mode scenario in Stage 6. Link is chased by Bokoblins, some riding on Bullbos and firing flaming arrows. Kargaroks and Bokoblins will also be found chasing Link. Link's mission is basically to cross the bridge, similiar to the caravan sidequest in Twilight Princess.

The Bridge of Eldin stage from Super Smash Bros. Brawl

The Bridge of Eldin is featured as a stage in Super Smash Bros. Brawl and Super Smash Bros. for Wii U. The stage is totally flat, similar to Final Destination, but its ends extend beyond the left and right boundaries, making it possible to walk off the stage to a KO. Every once in a while, King Bulblin riding Lord Bullbo, followed in certain times by a Bulblin, will appear crossing the stage to drop an explosive barrel, opening a gap in the middle of the bridge. After a while, a Portal appears in the sky restoring the missing part of the bridge. In the Event Match "Dark Link Duel", Dark Link is fought on this stage. In addition, along with Pirate Ship, it is one of two stages where the player can fight any one of the characters from The Legend of Zelda series in Classic Mode.

Music

The following lists the music that appears in the Bridge of Eldin stage.

Hyrule Warriors

Template:Sectstub The Bridge of Eldin appears as part of the Twilight Field stage in Hyrule Warriors.

Trivia

  • During the horseback portion of the battle against Ganondorf, the bridge will appear destroyed regardless of whether or not it was repaired.
  • In some copies of Twilight Princess, there is a game ending glitch which prevents Link from advancing to the Lanayru Province. If the game is saved and then quitted after the bridge has been destroyed, but before entering the Twilight, when opening the file, Link will appear on the south side of the bridge, making it impossible to continue through the game.
