Mouth of the Daemon

The only passage to Daemon's Crag is through the Mouth of the Daemon&mdash;a cavern through which a river of boiling lava flows, created by Pyros and appears in Ultima VIII. There is no secure path that anyone on foot can take through here, so reaching the crag thereafter requires some resourcefulness.

Description
The Avatar was able to traverse the river by first filling Carthax Lake, thereby cooling the lava with the overflow, and then using the Air Walk spell in a particularly treacherous part of the cavern, enabling him to reach the Sorcerers' Enclave. The sorcerer Beren was not happy at all, that some fool had directed water into the cavern and thus cooling off part of the lava river.

Trivia

 * A bug can be triggered when first entering the Mouth, cutting off some dialogue from Beren. To be exact, his whole explanation why he's so pissed off (the water overflow) vanishes and his bad mood becomes puzzling.


 * Entering before filling Carthax Lake presents the Avatar with a river of liquid lava that can't be crossed.
