Kandorean Temple

Kandorean Temple is a temple-monastery located in northern Indra, south east of Daila. It is run by an old monk named Master Poi. It's architecture is modeled on Ancient Indian, or possibly South East Asian styles. The Monks at Kandorean Temple attempt meditation in order to achieve the use of a form of Psynergy. The Monks use an extensive series of water caverns behind the temple (in the rock face) as a training grounds, similar to Fuchin Temple in Angara, which is visited in the first Golden Sun game. Unlike the Psynergy received at Fuchin Temple, however, the Psynergy received at Kandorean Temple is essential to the completion of the game.

Story and Walkthrough
In Golden Sun: The Lost Age, Kandorean Temple must be visited in order to gain the Lash Psynergy. When one first attempts to enter the temple, the player is prevented from doing so and told that meditation is in progress by monks guarding the gate. When one moves up the left hand side of the outside of the temple, there is an odd looking section of wall/cliff face with leaves growing on it. Kraden pops out for a moment and suggests you use Psynergy on it. When Whirlwind is used on it, the leaves float away and an opening is revealed, Kraden congratuales Felix on this and warns to watch out for other suspicious looking walls. Once inside, a young monk is seen enthusiastically asking his teacher to allow him to traverse the training grounds, which the teacher complies with.

After travelling into the training grounds a short way, Felix and co. encounter the young monk who is obviously injured and has realised he is in fact not ready to undergo the test. After traversing the temple, the player must fight three bosses called Chestbeaters. The Chestbeaters are not particularly difficult to defeat, and are the first boss in The Lost Age. After defeating them the player exits the caves and confronts Master Poi, who performs what seems like a random act of charity and bestows upon the player the Lash Pebble.
