Traps:
There are numerous traps in the hill.

  • Ground at the Point C crumbles beneath you.
  • Enemies comes out from inside the closed gates.
  • Bridge (F) becomes narrower as you step on it (you need to run through the middle of the bridge to reach the other end safely).

How to get the Gold Key:
The Gold Key is on top of the pillar. There are two switches (D) in front of the pillars. The eastern switch is a trap and enemies comes out from surrounding pillars, while the western switch makes a stairway to another switch. This switch activate the pillar to disappear and let you reach the Gold Key.

How to get the Teleportation Orb:
There are four switches (H) near where you fought the second boss.

The Teleportation Orb can be found beyond the newly formed stairway.
