Fragments of Power is an early quest by Darkflamewolf.  One of her first quests that's pretty solid and displays a lot of gimmicks that show up in some of her other quests, especially Hidden Duality.

 

Part 1 - Not much to do early on besides taking out level 1.  Just have to notice the gimmicks that will come back in later levels.

Part 2 - Clearing most of level 2, which I'll come back to finish after I get some more goodies.  Then a little exploration on the way to level 3

[pixcalibur]

Part 3 - Exploring level 3, which can be a bit tricky to navigate.  No shame in spamming arrows, especially when money comes in fairly easily.  After level scouting, time to get some upgrades, and then pretty much going through door repair charge rooms for essentially free  :tard:

Part 4 - Going into level 4 to pick up more goods.  Wand does help a bit in this place for ranged attacks.  Can take a tiny detour using a little trickery

[pixcalibur]

Part 5 - Time to catch up on levels, now made easier with better equipment.  Not necessary to do this, but it's just convenient.  No advantage to getting triforce pieces at the first opportunity.

 

And yeah, red leevers make for good ATM machines  .  Really loaded up some money in this part

Part 6 - Level 5 is a bunch of crossed paths.  First should find the cross to make the rooms less annoying to get through

[pixcalibur]

Part 7 - With the hookshot, we can do some more scouting, mainly to find one nifty item that will help out for the rest of the quest.

[pixcalibur]

Part 8 - Level 6 is surely one dark place to go through.  Note the amount of mileage the fire boomerang gets.  Sword can take a back seat for the most part

[pixcalibur]

Part 9 - Time to do more scouting, exploring more areas for more random goodies

[pixcalibur]

Part 10 - Gonna leap a bit ahead to the next couple levels to pick up more items.  Really don't need a good sword at this point given the alternatives hold ground.

 

Part 11 - Pretty much have full freedom now to explore.  More goodies to find, including one rather hidden item that will help in the near future

[pixcalibur]

Part 12 - If you've played some of DWF's other quests, this is pretty much what you're gonna be getting into in her Master Domes.  Usually is worth going through them at the least

[pixcalibur]

Part 13 - Going back to clean up a couple levels.  Much easier to mow through the levels with better gear

[pixcalibur]

Part 14 - Level 8 has a bunch of criss-cross passages.  Could skip a few passages given the extra items I have, but I'll show off these passages to show to get whatever items are there

[pixcalibur]

Part 15 (Final) - Going through level 9, which is fairly long with all the passages and stuff.  Good thing some weird hammer mechanics worked at the end there, or I would've been stuck.  Pretty crappy job with the ending battles, but I didn't feel like redoing a 50 minute video
