History
Volvagia was a plague to the Gorons and was renowned for his insatiable appetite for them.

Strategy
The arena in which Link faces Volvagia in is octagonal with several lava pits in it. One of the pits will spew small amounts of lava and the villainous boss will stick his head out. Link must then hit him with the Megaton Hammer, stunning him and leaving him vulnerable or risk being whipped by Volvagia's fiery mane. After this, he will fly out of the hole and breath fire. The tremor that he causes when emerging from beneath the arena causes rocks to fall from the ceiling. As the battle goes on, several lava pits will spew lava and Link will find it more difficult to predict where Volvagia will appear.
Reward
Like when most bosses are defeated, Link will receive a Heart Container for his brave efforts. A portal to the Sacred Realm will appear, causing Link to come face-to-face with Darunia, who reveals himself to be the Sage of Fire.[4] Darunia will then bestow upon the hero the Fire Medallion, bringing him one step closer to his confrontation with Ganondorf.[5]
