Death Mountain, Ho!

Good old mountain climbing, right?  Well, we've only climbed half of the summit and met with terrible danger (well, if you consider tumbling gorons and tektites terrible danger.  I'm sure that young link isn't too happy about them.) but either way, there's much to be done in the goron's home of Goron City...but alas, we can't do it yet because we don't have bombs.  So here we meet Darunia (for whom one of the towns in Zelda II was named...figure that out).  He's not happy to see us, either.  What?!  Apparently he's been having a bad day ever since that villain with red hair came by, closed the opening to Dodongo's Cavern and infested it with monsters, cutting off his people's food supply and now the disaster of starvation (and who knows what might accompany that) are immenent.  All right, I guess he has good reason to be in a bad mood.  Like all classic NPCs, he'll help us get what we want (he holds the spiritual stone of fire) IF we help him.  Oh, how nice.  You're not going to help us unless we help you.  Well, you're the authorities, shouldn't you have contingency plans in place?  Ah, well.  Not to mention that you play Saria's Song for this loser and he dances...fairly badly, too.  Says it's got a "hot beat."  Now, I like Saria's Song but it DEFINITELY doesn't have a hot beat.  Oh, well.  We'll get over it and run this little errand for you.
