DescriptionEdit

As its name suggests, the Dark Oasis' most notable feature is a large pool in the center of the room that is sealed off by a large wall. Part of this wall contains secondary Denzium which, despite being unstable, is a strong substance that can only be destroyed by high-energy explosives. The corridor to the right of the wall leads to a Light Portal for return to Aether. It also appears that a battle occurred here, as the corpse of a dead Pirate Commando was left. Scans indicate that the Pirate was hit with high-energy strikes and a piercing weapon. It is likely he fought an Ing, which are able to produce concentrated beams of light, and their legs possess extremely sharp tips. It also appears that a stray shot from either combatant hit a Phazon canister, which would explain the Phazon growing in one area.

The opposite direction leads to a room containing an Ammo Station. Under the surface of the pool in the center of the room is a Flying Ing Cache, which is guarded by Ingstorm and Inglets above the water.

The Aetherian version of this room is the Main Reactor.

Sky Temple Key

Requires Power Bombs and Light Suit. Samus must destroy the Denzium wall and kill the Flying Ing Cache in the Dark Water. The Flying Ing Cache will not appear unless the Power Bombs obtained by defeating the Power Bomb Guardian are collected.

TriviaEdit

• This room is extremely different from its Aether counterpart. Its much more cavern-like and has a much lower floor. This is because Dark Aether mirrors Aether upon the Leviathan's impact, and the Space Pirates only recently set their facility up. Due to this, the Dark Oasis does not accurately replicate the Main Reactor.
