[[File:VolcanoDungeon_Entryway.png|thumb|right|Volcano Dungeon's Entryway]]

The '''Volcano Dungeon''' is located inside the cave under the volcano at the north end of [[Ginger Island]]. Upon entering the cave, the player faces a lava river, across which lies the Volcano Dungeon. On the west side of the entryway is a pool of water. On its east side is a gate, initially locked, with a button on the floor to the south through the gate, out of reach. The far side of the gate is inaccessible until the player has completed the dungeon.

The '''Volcano Dungeon''' is located inside the volcano at the north end of [[Ginger Island]], accessed through a large cave on the south side of the volcano. The Dungeon consists of ten levels through which the player must proceed in sequence to reach the [[Forge]], thereby "completing" the dungeon.

To cross the lava river, pour water on it with the [[watering can]]. A steel (or higher) watering can is able to cover 5 squares in line, enough to build a bridge with a single tool use. The path remains for the length of the day, but disappears every night. After the player completes the dungeon, a parrot offers to build a permanent bridge in exchange for 5 [[Golden Walnut]]s.

 

To cross the lava river and enter the dungeon, pour water on it with the [[watering can]], creating a pathway to walk on. A steel (or higher) watering can is able to cover 5 squares in line, enough to build a bridge with a single tool use. The path remains for the length of the day, but disappears every night. After the player completes the dungeon, a parrot offers to build a permanent bridge in exchange for 5 [[Golden Walnut]]s.

Once across the lava river, the player can proceed north through the doorway to enter the first level of the dungeon.

===Exiting===

===Passage Through the Dungeon===

Unlike the Skull Cavern or the Mines, the Volcano Dungeon does not have ladders or instant exits on every level. There is an exit on the 10th level in the southwest corner that takes the player back to the entrance of the tunnel, allowing the gate to be unlocked for future access to the forge.  

Unlike the Skull Cavern or the Mines, the Volcano Dungeon does not have ladders for instant exits or descent through levels. Instead, the player must find in each level the doorway that leads to the next level. Exit from the dungeon is accomplished by retracing the path through the levels and up to the cave's entryway, except by means of warp or [[Return Scepter]].

 

Within the dungeon, the player may find Mystic Stones or other [[Mining#Mining Nodes|mining nodes]] that yield [[Cinder Shard]]s, gems, or ores (including iridium), as well as a variety of monsters. Level nine always contains a chest. Unlike [[the Mines]] or [[Skull Cavern]], the game populates each level with these items only once each day. Leaving and reentering the dungeon does not cause re-spawning on the same day.

 

Once the parrot appears on level five, it can create a special dungeon exit for 5 [[Golden Walnut]]s. This exit takes the player outside to the east side of the volcano, next to the [[Ginger Island#Parrot Express|Parrot Express]].

At a certain point, a parrot will appear on the 5th level and can create an exit for 5 [[Golden Walnut]]s. This exit takes the player to the east side of the volcano, next to the [[Ginger Island#Parrot Express|Parrot Express]].

There is also an open doorway in the southwest corner of level ten that takes the player back to the far side of the gate at the entryway to the cave. Once there, the player must step on the button on the floor to permanently open the entryway gate, allowing passage in either direction thereafter. Thus, completing the dungeon permits direct access to the Forge.
