One might normally think of a cave as a quiet, sullen place.
Such was not the case with the caves at the summit of Death Mountain. Walking around inside an active volcano is about the furthest thing one can get from peace and quiet, and the constant shuddering and cracking of the walls very much induced the feeling like the entire cave might collapse at any given moment. Strictly speaking, this was actually a good thing.
Still, as the five Primes and their Goron charges loped cautiously through the darkness, it was hard to feel optimistic about the situation. The feeling of having been 'consumed' for lack of a better term was pervasive in the thrumming blackness, and the rough stone walla emanated an oppressive, sticky warmth that made it hard to breath.
The faster this was done with, the better. Ideally, Volvagia's horde would be too busy off fighting Gamma squad to spend time occupying these upper caverns, but one could never be too careful, especially when escorting bundles of high explosives through a mountain that was on fire.

Quote:Objective: Escort the Gorons through Volvagia's caverns and plant explosives at four key locations.
Volvagia's lair consists of 20 circuitous 'spaces', meaning they loop around. Explosives must be planted at spaces 5, 10, 15 and 20. All Primes and Gorons start at space 1.
Packs of dragons can randomly spawn on any space at the start of each round. If a dragon spawns on your space and you are unhidden, you will fight the dragons and take 5 damage. If multiple, unhidden Primes are on the same attacked space, they can distribute the damage among themselves
The Gorons always follow and take the same actions as the Prime that is 'leading' them, and they cannot be separated. They can switch leaders freely.
Primes can take three actions per round.
Move- Move one Space
Hide- %50 chance to conceal yourself to avoid detection.
Divert- Call attention to your space, immediately drawing all spawned dragons to your space.
Gorons also have a special action to plant their explosives.
If the Gorons are left vulnerable, or the Prime guarding them dies before all dragons on their space attack, the Gorons take 5 damage. As a group, they have 10 hp. If the Gorons all die, the squad has failed.
The Gorons start out following Nealaphh.
And, we dream of home I dream of life out of here Their dreams are small My dreams don't know fear I got my heart full of hope I will change everything No matter what I'm told How impossible it seems We did it before And we'll do it again We're indestructible Even when we're tired And we've been here before Just you and I
Don't try to rescue me I don't need to be rescued
Don't try to rescue me I don't need to be rescued
