Volvagia is one of the bosses that Link must face throughout his journey in Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. Link battles Volvagia inside of Death Mountain.

The battle

The showdown between Link and Volvagia took place on a slab of land floating in a pool of lava deep inside Death Mountain. The island was punctured with several holes, and the great serpent would peek its head out of them to lash out at Link. Armed with his Megaton Hammer, Link swung and sledged until the dragon slithered and writhed into the air. From above, Volvagia unleashed a roar so shrill it caused rocks to fall from the Ceiling. Link dodged them until the beast returned to its burrow to attack again. The boss has twenty hit points; for more information on how damage is calculated in OoT, see Ocarina of Time weapons and items.

Portrayed in the Manga

Volvagia and Link meant seven years prior to to their battle. Before leaving to obtain the three gems, Link bought a infant dragon (Volvagia) out of pity for it. Though at first, he wanted nothing to do with the thing, he and the creature came to share a bond when it saved from from a Stalfchild. However, during the 7-year period, Volvagia was captured by Gannondorf's forcs and brain-washed by the Twinrova sisters into a blood-thirsty monster. By the time he encountered his old friend, Link was forced to kill Volvagia when he attacked tthe Gorons. The anguish of the deed enforced Link's intent to stop Ganondorf.
