The objective is to open the gates to pass this level. To open them you need to place the four crystal keys hidden throughout the level in the dragon statues sat in front of the gate. It is possible to go for keys 3 and 4 before 1 or 2 but it is easiest to follow the order here. First of all though go past the save point, away from the door to find a pair of spirit gems. | The objective is to open the gates to pass this level.

Turn right and fly across the gap. Low down on a platform there is a spirit gem, you can see it shining through the fog. Smash this and then fly back up to the platform above. A small cutscene will show Spyro and Cynder looking at a carving of Malefor on the wall. Note the location of the adamantite orb as you will need this later.

Note the location of the adamantite orb as you will need this later. Go along to the end of the platform and turn the wheel to lower a moveable wooden platform. Fly out to it and have one dragon grab onto it, and then the other pull it back using the magic chain. It works in the same way as the boat did in the Valley of Avalar. Use the platform to cross the gap. | ||
About halfway across a skeleton will come out and pull a lever lowering a barrier blocking the way. Fly across to the right and then up to the higher area. There is a wheel that raises the wooden blockade, but when you begin to turn it you will be attacked by skeletons. Wipe them all out and finish turning the wheel to clear the way, then head back down and go back to the platform. Drag it along to the other end and leave the platform here. More skeletons burst out the holes in the wall. Flame the vines to find a red crystal upgrade. At the end of this area there are a pair of tuning forks. Use Cynder's fear breath to activate them, this sends out have of the bridge. Fly across the river and activate the second set of tuning forks on the other side to fully extend the bridge. | About halfway across a skeleton will come out and pull a lever lowering a barrier blocking the way.

As Cynder, climb the climbing vines and use the wall run to reach the fnal zone. Switch to Spyro and use the earth breath to make Spyro a ball, and then ram the pillar to knock it over, similar to a wrecking ball. | ||

Climb the vines and have Spyro wrecking ball through the wall. In the alcoves in the wall there is a spirit gem and a red gem.

Fly back around, past a huge wheel in the wall, towards a series of waterfalls in the corner. Just before this platform is an armour chest. This holds Cynders' defensive helmet, which increses her defence. This should be the last peice of Cynders defensive armour set. | ||

Carry on this way to the large square area. There is another wall here, like the one that housed the first crystal key. Here another troll will pop up. If your health is running low there is a set of red and green gems on the raised area in the waterfall and the troll is unable to reach up here. When you finally kill this one as well, two torches will rise from the ground. Use | Carry on this way to the large square area.

When you finally kill this one as well, two torches will rise from the ground. Use Spyros' fire breath to light these to reveal a further four around the wheel on the wall. Fly back to this and plant Cynder on the climbing zone in the middle. Then have Spyro fly around using the fire breath and to light them all. This lowers the wall to reveal the third key and a wind tunnel back to the door and the dragon statues. Before this though, fly out as far as possible to find another spirit gem. | ||

Fly through this to reach the higher area above the previous one. Use an aerial attack or Cynders shadow breath on the second set of planks to open a passageway. This drops you into a secret area which was visible earlier. Use the green gem here to restore Cynders mana if it is not full, as you are going to need it. Go towards the camera slightly and the wall behind you will rumble and begin to move down the corridor towards you. Surprisingly, this is not a good thing so run!. There will be a series of shadow doors along the way, so send Cynder underneath them and pull the switch to let Spyro through. At the end, the corridor turns off and there is a red crytal upgrade. The exit is hidden behind a waterfall near the third keys location. | ||
