(NOTE: You will needs bombs for this part. If you haven't acquired them yet, do it.)

• Enter the top-most area of the tower.
• Do not rush this room. You'll have to wait for the phantoms to move to some other far off patrol point often.
• Head right and blow up the wall section blocking your way down.
• Be careful of the phantom though, don't let it see you.
• Once the path is cleared, and the phantom is on the other side of its patrol route, make a run for the Tear.
• Blow up the walls here, but once again make sure the phantoms don't see you.
• Slowly make your way to the far top left of the room.
• You'll have to blow up the walls leading to the left-most section of the room to get there.

• Use the boomerang to make the orb on the other side facing up.
• The orb you carried there should be facing left.
• Hit the orb you carried with an arrow to have it hit the switch on the wall on the other side and expand a bridge.
• Head right and across the bridge.
• Turn left and, when the phantom appears, run as fast as you can towards the safe zone on the far left.

• Head to the bottom right part and blow up the blocks until the blue orb reaches the ground.
• Pick it up, go up the stairs to the switch and jump over to the other ledge via the block you moved.
• Place the orb on the mark (It should be facing down).
• Now you have to destroy the block structure in the middle.
• If you don't have enough bombs, you can play tag with the phantom and have it bulldozer it away for you.
• It's a big open space so it's not hard to dodge it.
• Once the rubble is cleared, climb up the ledge on the left and hit the left orb on the long edge with your boomerang until it faces north.
• Go to the switch now, step on it, and shoot an arrow at the blue orb to the left.

• Get back on Zelda and have her move to the wall up north (Where the 2 logs for swinging are).
• Grab them and swing yourself to the left to the other blue orb.
