The Fire Sanctuary is an area that appears in two Zelda games. It is located within the Fire Realm of the re-established kingdom of Hyrule in Spirit Tracks, and it later appears in Skyward Sword near the Eldin Volcano.
Spirit Tracks
Location
The sanctuary is located just behind the Goron Village and is the home dwelling of the realm's Lokomo guardian, Embrose. It is the only sanctuary in Hyrule that doesn't have its own train station on the Rail Map.
Features
Story
After vanquishing Phytops atop the Ocean Temple and restoring the Ocean Temple's energy flow through its Spirit Tracks, Link and Princess Zelda are sent by Anjean to restore the energy flow to the Tower of Spirits from the final temple, the Fire Temple. To reach the temple high atop the realm's mountain however, Link sees that like all the other realms, he must first restore this realm's lost Spirit Tracks as well. After succeeding in recovering the Fire Rail Map from the tower, the pair travel to the Fire Realm to restore the final temple and fully regenerate the Tower of Spirits. Link speaks with Kagoron and uses Mega Ice to fully open the way to the rest of the village through a lava flow.[1] Behind the village, Link navigates his way through dangerous falling boulders and pools of lava to reach a special door called the Door of Friendship,[2] which blocks the way to Embrose's chamber.
Inside, Link meets with Embrose and performs the necessary Lokomo Song with him using the Spirit Flute, restoring the Spirit Tracks that lead to the Fire Temple atop the mountain.
Door of Friendship
The Door of Friendship is a door, similar in appearance to all doors in Phantom Hourglass and Spirit Tracks, that blocks the way to Embrose's chamber in the Fire Sanctuary.
To open the door, Link has to solve a puzzle that involves eight heads made of rock that are facing towards different directions. There is a sign nearby that gives Link a clue about how to open the door by telling him a short story. The story is about two men, who both fell in love with the same woman. One of them was always in the center of attention, but the woman was only interested in the other man. The battle for the woman had begun, but the men eventually became friends. This story is a metaphor where the eight heads of rock are the characters in the story. Five of the heads are facing the man who always is in the center of attention, while the two remaining heads are facing each other. They represent the woman and the other man. To open the door, the young hero must play the Song of Light between the two heads (the two men) that are facing the woman, which will make a diamond-shaped crystal appear. The crystal will send a beam of light towards the door and thus, open it.[3]
Skyward Sword
Template:Dungeon In Skyward Sword, the Fire Sanctuary houses Magmanos and the Mogma Mitts.
There are many lava flows similar to the Earth Temple, which Link must cross by using the Slingshot to shoot a water plant over the lava pool, releasing the water and hardening the lava to make a platform.
Enemies
Trivia
- Hardening the lava pools with water is similar to tossing the water pots in The Wind Waker in Dragon Roost Cavern.

Use the freight car to bring back something cold enough to cool the lava. Go talk to the merchants in the various villages. They may be able to help you." — Kagoron (Spirit Tracks)

Unfortunately for him, the woman only had eyes for the other man. The battle for the woman's love grew and sent sparks hot enough to melt stone. But eventually, friendship shone between the men like a light, uniting the pair. It was as if a door had been unlocked." — Sign (Spirit Tracks)
