Monster Stronghold
Template:Infobox Place Monster Strongholds are recurring locations in The Legend of Zelda series.[1] Monster Strongholds go unnamed in Skyward Sword.
Features and Overview
Skyward Sword
Monster Strongholds are encampments scattered throughout the Eldin Volcano in the Eldin Province in Skyward Sword. They are usually inhabited by Bokoblins who live in crude tents, though Moblins can also appear. Monster Strongholds typically have towers occupied by Bokoblin sentries who watch for intruders and alert the inhabitants when one is spotted. These towers can be toppled with Bombs, dispatching the sentries atop them.
After Eldin Volcano erupts, Bokoblins occupy the entire mountain, converting it into one massive Monster Stronghold. Monster Strongholds can be found east of Volcano East, outside the entrance to the Thrill Digger Mini-Game, and east of the Temple Entrance.
Later in the game, all of the Monster Strongholds are abandoned, so Kortz decides to take residence inside one of the huts,[2][3][4] while Merco can be found outside, wondering what Bokoblins eat.[5]

Us Mogmas live in the ground, so we don't have what you would call "houses." I just wanted to see what it felt like to say "Welcome to my place!"" — Kortz (Skyward Sword)

And I want to know who's dropping by my dirty hovel. Oh, and just 'cause you're all rested doesn't mean you can roll around and bust the place up!" — Kortz (Skyward Sword)
