As they expected, the Hero of Time was, in fact, dumbfounded that they managed to pick up a blade that had to specifically choose someone, completely unaware of the fact that they were many times more powerful than he was. Over by Ganon's Castle, despite their best efforts, they still landed through the roof of the lower half of the tower due to the sheer height of the castle and the distance from the edge of the lava pool. Since there was no hardware constraints on Hyrule anymore, the castle was many times larger and floated farther up, resulting in an overall larger region it was located in. Still, that they managed to get in without the Sages was a feat on its own. Before them stood the barrier to the inner regions of the castle, pulsing and writhing with dark magical energy. It likely wouldn't be much of an obstacle this time, however, if only the three avatars (if Ajax managed to get himself up) found a way to get through it. Down they went into Death Mountain's Crater, the heat triggering Samus's Varia Suit's environmental shield. This caused a faint orange glow to appear around the suit, and an alert went off in her helmet about the extreme heat in the area. Just as Link expected, there was no bridge. Samus simply used her Space Jump to cross it, and walked past the rocket standing directly in the center of the caldera. She quickly scanned the rocket, then said, [b]"He seems inactive. There's no power coursing through his systems."[/b] She guessed the player had announced dropping out. It wouldn't have been so easy if they weren't in Cyberspace, but they were, so it was likely the avatar was responding to some problem on the forum. They followed the path into a cave to the north, and Samus jumped down the hole there. She slammed into the ground and landed on one knee. It was even hotter here, in what her scans revealed to be the Fire Temple. She walked forward, through the long corridor and into the antechamber of the Temple.
