[edit] Location
Key Cavern is found in Ukuku Prairie on Koholint Island. To enter it, Link must first acquire the Slime Key from Richard's Villa, where it is hidden beneath an owl statue. Richard will not let Link collect the key, however, unless Link collects for him the five golden leaves which Richard left in Kanalet Castle.
Once Link has given Richard the leaves and received the key, he can enter Key Cavern, which derives its name both from the shape of the dungeon layout and from the fact that proceeding through the dungeon requires the accumulation of numerous keys. This is the first dungeon on the island which has more than one floor.
