Dungeon[]
In order to enter the palace, Link must translate the Hylian text on a stone monument using the Book of Mudora. There are actually two palaces: the main one, where the Power Glove is hidden, and another built into the cliff behind it, where the Pendant of Power is kept. To enter the second section, Link must find the west entrance to the palace and clear away some rocks with the Power Glove.
