Crystal Peak

Crystallised Mound is an ancient abandoned temple found deep within Crystal Peak which is older than the mines surrounding it. It was home of the Snail Shaman's fourth aunt who became encased in crystal after meditating too long within. Breaking the crystal she is trapped in grants the Descending Dark Spell.

Entering this area requires Desolate Dive to break the floor. The Lumafly Lantern is recommended for the dark area right before the Mound. The Crystal Heart or the Monarch Wings is also required to cross the chasm leading to it.

Trivia
 * Using the Dream Nail on the statue of the Radiance on Hallownest's Crown yields the line:
 * "...Remember... Light..."


 * In early development, Crystal Peak was part of the Forgotten Crossroads, where it was known as the "Crystal Mines". Team Cherry added it because they thought it would be interesting to return to the Forgotten Crossroads after some point, but still go to a thematically different part. The Crystal Mines eventually ended up broken off into an entirely new area, after which it was renamed to Crystal Peak.
