The Cubus Sister claims it is too late, that once he enters the Ghost Ship he is already lost and will join the living dead. Link demands the Cubus Sister return those she cursed to normal. Link defends Linebeck, although the Cubus Sister says he will betray the hero as he did his shipmates. Before the Cubus Sister can harm Linebeck, Ciela, Leaf, and Neri attack her. She tells the captain that she will take him to join his comrades, and transforms into her demonic form. Linebeck falls to the ground and calls her a devil. The Cubus Sister continues, telling the captain that his comrades were all captured and cursed, and that they wander below deck screaming their hatred for him. The Cubus Sister calls Linebeck a coward, and asks how he can criticize her after abandoning his comrades. Linebeck then confronts the two, commenting that the Cubus Sister is tricky as ever, and asks how many sailors she lured this way. The Cubus Sister responds that the living dead below deck did so. The Cubus Sister begins crying again, and explains that Tetra took her place and was cursed. She introduces herself to Link, and says that she was kidnapped by the Ghost Ship and rescued by Tetra. The Cubus Sister is seen again sobbing next to Tetra, who has been turned to stone. Although, the crew is soon cursed and turned into monsters, causing Linebeck to flee by himself. On the Ghost Ship, the Cubus Sister carries a platter of food, and thanks Linebeck's crew for saving her. She is first seen briefly in Linebeck's flashback. Only one of the Cubus Sisters makes an appearance in the Phantom Hourglass manga by Akira Himekawa. The Letter's phrasing suggests that it comes from the Cubus Sisters themselves. If Link does not obtain the Heart Container from the Treasure Chest before leaving the Ghost Ship, it will be mailed to him by an unknown sender. The final sister must be struck three more times before she'll fall, feign congratulations, then disappear, leaving behind the Ghost Key needed to enter the Ship's hull where Tetra is trapped.
The final remaining sister will launch three energy balls toward Link at once two decoys and one real one. When two sisters remain, some of the energy balls they launch will be decoys with a different appearance, which will split apart if Link strikes them with his Sword, likely causing him harm. The first sister to be struck by the ball twice will be defeated. With three or fewer left, the sisters will begin to pass the moving energy ball between themselves several times before returning it to Link, in an attempt to disorient the hero. After outmatching the youngest sister and striking her with her own energy ball twice, she will be defeated and the remaining sisters will continue the battle. The youngest sister will launch balls of energy down at Link in a game of Dead Man's Volley, while the others fire beams of light that Link must avoid. The battle against the Cubus Sisters takes place across both screens of the Nintendo DS, with the sisters flying around overhead. They transport Link and themselves to the Ship's deck and reveal their true forms. Once the four girls are reunited, they will gather around and hiss at Link, sharing disbelief that he survived the Reaplings and the Ship's various traps, and declaring that it's time to "play extra rough". When speaking to the Sisters, they will occasionally show signs of their true, evil nature, either by giving Link poor advice, or through a simple slip of the tongue. If Link gets separated by more than a short distance from the girl he's leading, or if a Skulltula descends into her line of sight, she'll begin to cower in fear and require Link's reassurance to continue.

Link must free the sisters and lead them one-by-one to where the youngest sister awaits on the top floor. Įach of the three remaining Cubus Sisters can be found in a cell on the three respective floors of the Ghost Ship. She somehow has knowledge of Link's name and his quest to rescue Tetra, and seems relieved that a hero has arrived to save her sisters as well. Once the Poes are defeated, she introduces herself to Link as the youngest daughter of the House of Cubus, having been kidnapped along with her three older sisters and held captive on the Ship. Link finds the sister in red cowering in a corner on the first floor while a group of Poes haunt the area. The Cubus Sisters appear as four young human girls, identical in appearance but dressed in differing colors, who are encountered on the Ghost Ship.
