Inferno Cave

Inferno Cave is a location in Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night. As its name implies, Inferno Cave is a hellish cavernous area located deep below the earth, with many lava-covered floors and Fire-aligned enemies to contend with.

Progression[]

Inferno Cave is the second of a pair of conjoined zones, together with the earlier-visited Secret Sorcery Lab, that serve one function for the player at the southwest part of Gebel's castle on the map. Once Miriam has collected both the Reflector Ray shard from the Underground Sorcery Lab and the Deep Sinker shard from the Hidden Desert, she can pass through the underwater gap at the far west end of the Forbidden Underground Waterway and pass through the Secret Sorcery Lab on her way to the Inferno Cave.

Various treasures lie far above out of the player's reach until the Orobas boss is battled and defeated just to the right of the 1x2 room with adjacent Save and Warp rooms. Miriam will gain the Invert shard, essentially removing all obstacles based on verticality and allowing her to collect treasures such as Ultimate Ammunition/R. When you reach the east exit from the zone, you will end up in the separated south-central portion of the Forbidden Underground Waterway that acts as a transitory space between the Inferno Cave and the Hidden Desert, and you will be able to collect Supreme Dish/R in a cracked wall in the space you couldn't reach from the Hidden Desert side previously.

Invert will be needed to collect the Aegis Plate that lies at the far northwest corner of Valac's former boss area in the Towers of Twin Dragons, and a combination of Invert, Craftwork, and the equipped Aegis Plate are needed to get past the top portion of the very tall opening chamber in the Entrance zone to reach the Oriental Sorcery Lab zone.

Aurora Mode[]

Once Aurora has defeated Valac and grown back into an adult, she must come to this area for the third step in her character progression: retrieving the Sun. Defeating Orobas causes her dress and crown to turn white as she becomes the proper Princess of Lemuria again. She also becomes immune to environmental hazards as if she were wearing the Aegis Plate, making it possible for her to reach the Oriental Sorcery Lab.
