Volcano Summit

The Volcano Summit is a large volcanic cavern found deep inside Eldin Volcano in Skyward Sword. As described by Ledd the Mogma, it is too hot for a normal traveler to explore. Link must travel through the summit many times in a row to extinguish the various pillars of flames that are blocking the path to the Fire Sanctuary where the final Sacred Flame rests.

Appearance and Features
The Volcano Summit is located deep inside Eldin Volcano, with burning temperatures and magma-like walls no one would be able to survive in the heat for long. Link recieves the Fireshield Earrings after completeing Din's Silent Realm Trail, which protect him from the extreme heat and from setting himself aflame allowing him to enter the summit. The Volcano Summit leads to the entrance to the Fire Sanctuary which Gorko the Goron who suspects many Goddess Cubes nearby, states the entrance is blocked by pillars of flames. Which to be extinguished the frog statues above them, have to have been given water from Link's Empty Bottles. Later Link has to lead the Ancient Robot Scrapper who is carrying the Water Dragon's Basin through the cavern, fending off the Lizalfos and other native enemies who have settled in the area. Eventually they extinguish the flames blocking the entrance to the Fire Sanctuary. Allowing Link to continue to his adventure to find the final Sacred Flame.

Later in the game, Link returns to the summit after escaping capture from the local Bokoblins who captured him when Eldin Volcano erupted, to find the chamber inside the cavern that houses Eldin the Fire Dragon. So, that Link may learn the second part of the Song of the Hero from him. Journeying through the summit he finds his sword and all of his items guarded by a group of Bokoblins. After getting his items and blade back, Link eventually reachs Eldin and finds out he caused the eruption and learns the second part of the Song of the Hero.

Most of the enemies that are located inside the Volcano Summit seem to be related to fire or are cursed and include Fire Keese, Cursed Kesse, Cursed Spume and Lizalfos.

Trivia

 * The Volcano Summit and Death Mountain Crater seem to be very closely related or the same location due to many theorizing Eldin Volcano becomes Death Mountain in the future.
 * Both the Volcano Summit and Death Mountain Crater give damage to Link due to the extreme heat. The only way Link can prevent this is by recieving an item in this case the Red Tunic and the Fireshield Earrings.
