'''Bottom of the Well''' is not required for a speed run, as the only important item you get is the Lens of Truth.  With practice, both the [[Shadow Temple]] and the desert maze can be completed without it.  However, if you are new to speed running and still need it, this guide should provide a quick way through the well.

''To get there...''

Before touching a hand, do a jump attack with a Deku stick to prepare for [[Power Crouch Stab]]s.  Allow a hand to grab you, escape, and attack the zombie when it lowers its head using said Power Crouch Stab.  Be fast at getting to him, or he'll just burrow again.

Once you beat him, you receive the Lens of Truth.  Immediately warp to the Temple of Time and become an adult.  From here, you can choose to either do the Shadow Temple immediately using the Nocturne of Shadow, or you can use the Serenade of Water to head to the Gerudo's Fortress.  I suggest the latter option, which follows the layout of the rest of the guide.
