Themes and Navigation ĭodongo's Cavern has two floors, some of which include bridges and statues. In return for this, he is able to receive the Spiritual Stone from the Gorons and proceed with his quest. By using a Bomb Flower (usable only after collection of the Goron's Bracelet) to destroy the boulder blocking the entrance, he is able to enter the cavern and navigate his way through it, defeating the creatures all the way through up to King Dodongo, the boss of the dungeon. Link, who comes to Death Mountain to get the Spiritual Stone as well, is, unlike Ganondorf, able to gain the trust and respect of the Gorons. Because of that, Ganondorf infested the cavern with Dodongos and sealed the entrance with a boulder.
Prior to the events of the game, Ganondorf came to Death Mountain to get the Goron's Ruby from Darunia, the chief of the Gorons, who refused. The cave is located about halfway up Death Mountain Trail.
