Located within Dragon Roost Island, is the Dragon Roost Cavern, home to the Sky Spirit Valoo. When Link first comes to the island, Valoo is very angry, yet the Rito who live there do not know why. Unless they can solve the problem, Valoo will not let anyone near to receive his scales, which allow the Rito to fly.
Link first learns of the cavern from Medli, a Rito and the Great Valoo's attendant. She wishes to visit Valoo and find out why he is upset. With Link's help, she reaches the cavern, and give Link a bottle, which, with a little ingenuity, allows him access to the cavern as well. (The entrance to the cavern is usually blocked by a moat. A rock, from the disturbance caused by Valoo, blocked the hole that caused the moat. So Link watered a bomb flower and blew up the rock.)
While inside, Link has to rescue Medli, who ends up captured by Moblins. Upon her release, Link receives the Grappling Hook, which is what the Rito used to use before they had wings.
Link found a giant Magtail called Gohma in the room below Valoo. It was this Magtail that was causing Valoo to be upset as she was agitating his tail, which hung down into the cavern below. Using the Grappling Hook and the weight of the slab of dried magma imprisoning Valoo's tail, Link defeated Gohma and restored peace to the island. He then received the Din's Pearl from Prince Komali as a reward for scaling the cavern.
It is highly debated whether or not Dragon Roost Island is actually the tip of Death Mountain from Ocarina of Time, as the hole that Valoo sits on originally has a ring of smoke around it. The fact that Valoo is a dragon is also interesting, as the former inhabitant of Death Mountain was Volvagia, who the Hero of Time defeated.
Players sometimes express this as Wind Wakers turning point towards being easy, as it features a reoccurring amount of torch scenarios making the experience more than just a little repetitive, which is uncommon in a Zelda game.
