## Location

Two Dark Chests of Wonders exist within the mod.

The first is located within Morwitijaal. It is found in Morwitijaal Sanctuary behind the entrance to the Link Between Worlds. As the side room is initially barred by a gate, it requires the Song of Time and Ocarina of Time to be accessed. This Dark Chest of Wonders does not respawn.

The second is located within Ganon's Deadlands. It is found behind the portal entrance on a southern hill. Unlike the Dark Chest of Wonders within Morwitijaal, the one found in Ganon's Deadlands will respawn and may produce different contents.

## Background and Inspiration

The Dark Chest of Wonders is named after a song by the symphonic metal band Nightwish. "Dark Chest of Wonders" is the first song on their 2004 album *Once*.

In version 6.49, the chest was given the appearance of a chest from the Soul Cairn, rather than a Falmer Chest, which JKalenad felt was out of place in Morwitijaal.

The chest was included mostly for fun, to give the player an item they might not have known was in the mod, or may not have pursued.

The chest uses the leveled list SublistDarkChestofWondersMorwit. With over 80 different items, appearing two at a time, the probability of an item appearing in the chest is about 1 in 40, with 6400 different combinations. This probability will change as the mod expands.

The Dark Chest of Wonders is the only way to obtain a fifth Noble Sword, and like any item, there is a 1 in 40 chance for one of the sword to appear in the chest.

The chest once had the possibility of containing a second Master Sword, but this was removed, as JKalenad felt that a second True Master Sword would contradict lore for the mod and cheapen the sword in Ancestor Glade.
