Rather than being surrounded by fire and flame, Link finds Death Mountain to be covered in snow and ice here in Lorule. Lorule’s Death Mountain is also divided into two halves: the west half features the Treacherous Tower, while the east half features the Ice Ruins dungeon. The west half is easy to reach—just enter the fissure near Hyrule’s Death Mountain weather vane. To reach the east half of Lorule’s Death Mountain, you must use the fissure down by Rosso’s ore mine, forcing you to travel through the dangerous volcano that lies beyond the Tower of Hera in Hyrule. The Treacherous Tower features 50 floors of enemies for you to fight through, with fabulous prizes to be won. To reach the Ice Ruins, you’ll need to traverse a massive and dangerous ice cavern—Lorule’s version of Hyrule’s cavernous volcano.
