TheLanayru Caves are a small network of caves located in the Lanayru Desert region inSkyward Sword.[1]
Features
The Lanayru Caves are a network of small caverns covered with stalagmites andBomb Flowers that can be used to blow up the many bombable rocks that are located inside the cave. The small cavern is also the site of a research dig ofTimeshift Stones and home to aGoron known asGolo. It is first visited byLink after he completesNayru'sSilent Realm Trial and receives theClawshots. With his newly acquired item, Link is able to cross over a large pit of quicksand which leads to the cavern's entrance. Once inside, Link proceeds to talk with Golo who informs Link that he has heard of aSacred Flame hidden somewhere in theLanayru Sand Sea. Golo hands to Link the small key to the door that leads outside to the dock bordering the Sand Sea.[2][3]
Link returns to the Lanayru Caves while on his quest to findLanayru the Thunder Dragon, so that he can learn his part of theSong of the Hero. Golo announces that his excavation was a huge success and Link returns to the spot that Golo was previously mining at to find a small bombable hole. The crawlable hole leads to small cavern that holds an exit toLanayru Gorge, where the Thunder Dragon resides.

I almost never get visitors! My name is Golo, and I am reserching the legend of the three dragons, one of which is said to live here! At first glance, it would seem that there is nothing in this area, but I know there is something here. I will just keep on looking!

And how about you, Link? Why are you here...? You are looking for a sacred flame? That sounds like something I have heard of before, but maybe not... Sweet goro, I remember now! I read about it in ancient scrolls that spoke of the Lanayru Sand Sea. I do not remember all the details, but you can get to Lanayru Sand Sea if you just go straight through here. If you want to get to Lanayru Sand Sea, you are going to need this key! Good luck to you!
