Forest Temple (Twilight Princess)

The Forest Temple is the first dungeon in The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess.

Story
Before reaching this temple, Link finds Faron Woods ravaged by Twilight: for instance, a whole section of the woods is covered in purple fog that has the same effect as falling down a bottomless pit. After being fully equiped with sword, shield, and hero's garb, Link is able to reach the Forest Temple where he fought the enemies that caged a monkey.

Delving into this Dungeon can be a strange experience for first time players, the puzzles and areas can be overwhelming and confusing. The Temple is complex and has areas that must be accessed with the help of an item, or with Monkeys there to make a chain.

Dungeon
It is infested with monkeys and baboons, and is plagued by Diababa. The item Link finds in this dungeon is the Gale Boomerang, which he receives after defeating a corrupted baboon named Ook. Other monkeys are imprisoned throughout the temple, and must be rescued in order to cross the chasm and confront the boss. The interior of the temple is the insides of a large tree and its root system. Its well-being, like that of the Great Deku Tree, seems to affect the whole forest.

Ook is an enemy that helps Link defeat Twilight Parisite Diababa, the boss of the Forest Temple. Soon Ook'll be Link's friend.

Trivia

 * Due to its similar appearance and the presence of the Kokiri symbol (which appeared within the Deku Tree in Ocarina of Time), and the fact that the entrance to the Temple is situated within a massive tree stump, this temple could possibly be the deceased remains of the Great Deku Tree.
 * The symbol on the doors in this Forest Temple matches the design on Link's Deku Shield in Ocarina of Time which is also the symbol of the Kokiri, the Deku Tree, and Farore.
 * In the art featured above, it shows Link holding a metal sheild (most likely a Hylian Sheild). However, the sheild is unobtainable before or during the Forest Temple.
