Luke, you'll need to be at the other side of the dungeon first. Close to where you found Torin (beyond the pit), there is a receptacle for the evil eye. That opens a door to the Aku idol (not to be confused with the other idol at the end of the 'gauntlet').
Watch out for some more bad-tempered flowers though!
