It also has a great amount of rocks in it that the [[Goron]]s that live nearby eat, and it is used for mining food for them.<ref>{{cite|We are in danger of extinction!

||
| − | The cave is located about halfway between [[Kakariko Village]] and [[Goron City]], on [[Death Mountain]]. Prior to the events of the game, [[Ganon]]dorf came to Death Mountain to get the [[Spiritual Stones#Goron's Ruby|Goron's Ruby]] from [[Darunia]], the chief of the Gorons, who refused. Because of that, Ganondorf infested the cavern with [[Dodongo]]s and sealed the entrance with a boulder.<ref>{{cite|All this trouble must have been caused by that Gerudo thief, Ganondorf!

By using a [[Bomb Flower]] (usable only after collection of the [[Power Bracelet|Goron's Bracelet]])<ref>{{cite|You got the Goron's Bracelet! Now you can pull up Bomb Flowers.|N/A|OoT}}</ref> 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. In return for this, he is able to receive the Spiritual Stone from the Gorons and proceed with his quest.<ref>{{cite|You, on the other hand, risked your life for us... Kid, I like you!

||
| + | {{TP}} features this song as a requirement to learn a [[Hidden Skill]] from the [[Hero's Spirit|Hero's Shade]] at [[Upper Zora's River]]. [[Wolf Link]] must howl this song near the [[Howling Stone]] at the Upper Zora's River. |
||
| + | ==Etymology== |
||
| − | ==Themes and Navigation== |
||
| + | A requiem is a form of music whose theme is a prayer for the salvation of the souls of the departed, and it is used both at services immediately preceding a burial, and on occasions of more general remembrance. Given the implications of a requiem, it seems that this title would have been more appropriately given to the [[Shadow Temple]], although the highly symbolic architectural design and crypt-like layout of the dungeon itself may suggest the Spirit Temple is or was once a tomb. |
||
| − | Ironically, the Cavern is smaller in size than the first dungeon, the [[Inside the Deku Tree|inside of the Great Deku Tree]], as it only has two floors in comparison to the Deku Tree's five. The inside of Dodongo's Cavern seems mostly uninhabitable, but several rooms show signs of use, including bridges and statues; others are smaller and darker, much like normal caverns. Link regularly has to move blocks to depress [[Switch#Floor Switch|switches]], use bomb flowers to destroy walls (and even the base of a giant staircase), and occasionally shut off rings of fire by shooting [[Switch#Eyeball Switch|eye switches]] with the [[Slingshot]]. It is home to lizard-like creatures, such as the several varieties of Dodongos for which the Cavern is named and the stronger [[Lizalfos]] (which are the first mini-bosses found in the game). Many bomb flowers grow within the Cavern and they are often necessary for solving puzzles before Link obtains the [[Bomb Bag]]. |
||
| + | ==Music Theory== |
||
| − | In the main chamber of Dodongo's Cavern lie the remains of the [[Giant Dead Dodongo]], the mouth of which can be opened to progress further into the dungeon.<ref>{{cite|Giant dead Dodongo... when it sees red, a new way to go will be open.|Sign|OoT}}</ref> |
||
| + | The Requiem of Spirit is 6 bars long in 4/4 time and based in d minor, a key center easily defined by the 6 notes of the ocarina part (DFDAFD) all being in the d minor triad. Harmonically, the Requiem goes back and forth from i to ii°, although the unusual bass line gives implications of a III chord in some spots, despite the strong D in the top voice. The final two bars are played with a iv - Isus2 - I progression, which again is unusual that a Requiem would end on a major I chord, similar to the ending of the [[Nocturne of Shadow]]. |
||
| + | Measures 3-5 of the Requiem feature an interesting rhythmic augmentation in the strings part, playing the Ocarina's 6-notes motif at half speed.<ref>{{cite web|url= http://cruiseelroy.net/2008/04/ocarina-music-3/|title= Music in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time |site= Cruise Elroy}}</ref> |
||
| − | ==''Master Quest''== |
||
| − | In the {{MQ}} version, the dungeon is largely played in a backwards fashion. Instead of going first to the right, Link must go to the left and to the upper floor. The Lizalfos are first fought in the second floor and then in the first. [[Bomb]]s are obtained much later, where the compass was originally found. There are more [[Business Scrub]]s, and Lizalfos appear in several rooms. The rooms where [[Gold Skulltula]]s were originally found have now a lot of enemies, like [[Skulltula]]s and [[Mad Scrub]]s, and give a reward of only five [[Rupee]]s. [[Poe]]s now appear in the Dodongo room. [[Dodongo#Baby Dodongo|Baby Dodongos]] are plentiful, and the Dodongos are found in a different room. There are almost no [[Keese]] and there is a room with several [[Armos]]. Most puzzles feature a sequence of Bomb Flowers on the walls. |

||
| − | *Dodongo's Cavern is the only dungeon in ''Ocarina of Time'' that contains a [[Gossip Stone]]. |
||
| − | *Dodongo's Cavern is one of three dungeons in the game that can be entered as both Child Link or Adult Link, the other two being the [[Shadow Temple]] and the [[Spirit Temple]]. |

||
| − | *If Link returns to the boss room anytime after completing the dungeon for the first time, King Dodongo will have sunk into the lava completely. |
||
| − | *There are several rooms which must be entered by bombing the walls. However, one of these has an alternate method of entry. If Link kills a Baby Dodongo close enough to the wall, it will be destroyed when the creature explodes, granting access without the need for Bombs. |
||
| − | *This is the only non-living dungeon explored by Link on his quest to find the three Spiritual Stones, although a portion of it contains the remains of a giant skeletal Dodongo. [[Inside the Deku Tree|The first dungeon]] is actually the protector of [[Kokiri Forest]] until his death, and [[Inside Jabu-Jabu's Belly|the third dungeon]] is the guardian deity of the [[Zora]] race. |

||
| − | *There is a small, hidden room in Dodongo's Cavern which is located behind the lava-waterfall on the ground floor, in the chamber where the first two [[Lizalfos]] are fought. The room contains a single [[Recovery Heart]]. |

Revision as of 16:19, 15 June 2013
Template:Song The "Requiem of Spirit" is a recurring song in the Template:Series, first appearing as a playable melody in Ocarina of Time.
Appearances, Learning Locations and Uses
Ocarina of Time
In Ocarina of Time, the "Requiem of Spirit" is one of the warping songs Link learns as an adult. It is taught to him by Sheik at the Desert Colossus after the young hero exits the Spirit Temple once he realizes he cannot enter it yet.[1] It allows Link to warp to the Desert Colossus at any age, which is necessary in order to access the Spirit Temple as a child.
Twilight Princess
Twilight Princess features this song as a requirement to learn a Hidden Skill from the Hero's Shade at Upper Zora's River. Wolf Link must howl this song near the Howling Stone at the Upper Zora's River.
Etymology
A requiem is a form of music whose theme is a prayer for the salvation of the souls of the departed, and it is used both at services immediately preceding a burial, and on occasions of more general remembrance. Given the implications of a requiem, it seems that this title would have been more appropriately given to the Shadow Temple, although the highly symbolic architectural design and crypt-like layout of the dungeon itself may suggest the Spirit Temple is or was once a tomb.
Music Theory
The Requiem of Spirit is 6 bars long in 4/4 time and based in d minor, a key center easily defined by the 6 notes of the ocarina part (DFDAFD) all being in the d minor triad. Harmonically, the Requiem goes back and forth from i to ii°, although the unusual bass line gives implications of a III chord in some spots, despite the strong D in the top voice. The final two bars are played with a iv - Isus2 - I progression, which again is unusual that a Requiem would end on a major I chord, similar to the ending of the Nocturne of Shadow.
Measures 3-5 of the Requiem feature an interesting rhythmic augmentation in the strings part, playing the Ocarina's 6-notes motif at half speed.[2]
