The Dungeons of Shintaro are an underground cavern that was built by the evil sorcerer named Hazza D'ur.
History[]
Prior to the series[]
A long time ago, an evil sorcerer named Hazza D'ur owned a skull that had incredible powers and used it to rule the Dungeons of Shintaro. He was later defeated, but his bones are said to be still in Shintaro while the skull remained intact.[1]
Centuries later, the Munce and Geckles came to Lilly for her help to defeat a dragon named Grief-Bringer. After battling Grief-Bringer, Lilly unlocked the Spinjitzu Burst and destroyed the dragon with it.[2] She then gave the Blades of Deliverance to the Munce and Geckles, as well as giving her necklace to Gleck.[3]
Sometime after Grief-Bringer was defeated, the Lowly entered the Dungeons of Shintaro and find the Skull of Hazza D'ur for King Vangelis. However, when Korgran touches it, Dark Magic tried to corrupt him, and he drops it in surprise. The group realizes the skull is evil, so they carry it by using Korgran's axe. Despite this, Vangelis changes his mind by saying that he can use the Skull of Hazza D'ur for the kingdom. However, when the Lowly disagreed by saying that the skull must be destroyed, Vangelis casts them out to Rock-Bottom.[4]
Eventually, Vangelis used the skull to resurrect the Re-Awakened as well as stealing the Blades of Deliverance from the Munce and Geckles, causing a rift between the two tribes.[5]

Although, when Cole and Vania see the two tribes stopping after a wheelbarrow was destroyed, they see the Skull Sorcerer come out of the Skull Keep and use the Skull of Hazza D'ur to punish the workers for stopping. Cole then decides to intervene while Vania would warn her father. However, Cole gets defeated by the Re-Awakened.

The Ascent[]
Cole uses the Stone Mech to push Vania, Wu, and the Upply who are in mine carts. Along their journey, they encounter the Magma Monster and Dire Bats.
While Cole is busy fighting the Magma Monster, he doesn't realize the mine carts are headed straight to the lava, so he tries to save them. The Magma Monster gets in his way, but this doesn't stop Cole from destroying the beast and saving everyone inside the mine carts.
The Upply Strike Back![]
