The Dark Cloud is the second stage of the Realm of the Heavens, the final level of The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures. It is considered to be one of the longest stages in the game. The first half of the level is played in a 2D side-scrolling style, the same as was used in the Tower of Winds. There, Link finds the Bow and Bombs. At the end of the 2D half, Link steps into the light and is taken up to the second half of the stage, which is displayed the same way as most of the game.
