Elemental Lighthouses

The Elemental Lighthouses have the four elements of Alchemy sealed away and each one is aligned with a particularly element. Their respective seals are broken by casting the proper Elemental Stars into the wells at their summits. The Lighthouses are extremely tall, likely hundreds of metres high and interestingly, contain lifts either side of the summit which lower people to the base of the lighthouse again. The lighthouses are full of puzzles and enemies, these enemies typically resistant to the element of the lighthouse, though not always, and the puzzles often involve the element of the lighthouse, such as puzzles involving water pipes in Mercury Lighthouse. During the Golden Sun Games, the player must (depending on your progression through the story) attempt to stop the lighthouses being lit, or light them. There is typically a difficult boss battle when one reaches the top of the lighthouse.

There are four lighthouses:

• Mercury Lighthouse which is aligned with water, and located in northern Angara.
• Venus Lighthouse which is aligned with Earth and located in north eastern Gondowan.
• Jupiter Lighthouse aligned with Wind and located in Southern Atteka.
• Mars Lighthouse which is located in the Northern Reaches and aligned with Fire.
