In-game description

Key to the hanging cage in Sen's Fortress.

If a hapless adventurer becomes fatigued
during an imprudent attempt to overcome the
fortress, the serpent men will not kill him,
but lock him up in a lonely cage.
Eventually, unless they have forgotten,
they drag the victim off to who-knows-where.

Where to find

Treasure pickup

Sen's Fortress: bottom of the merchant tower

  1. Ring both Bells of Awakening and climb through Sen's Fortress to the outdoor roof. Follow the upper walkways toward the broken bridge leading to the Crestfallen Merchant's tower.
  2. Jump the gap and enter the merchant's tower. Take its stairs all the way down rather than stopping to shop.
  3. Defeat the Serpent Mage guarding the lower room and collect the Cage Key from the corpse.
  • The bridge jump is over a fatal drop. Clear the approach and line up the jump before attempting it.

Notes

  • Cage lift shortcut: Unlocks the hanging cage lift near the roof of Sen's Fortress. Step inside the unlocked cage to ride down toward the entrance section.
  • Logan's prison: Also opens Big Hat Logan's cage and the neighboring treasure cage. His prison is behind the breakable wall on the boulder route. Redirect a boulder into the wall to reach the cages.
  • Master Key exception: Master Key opens Logan's cage and the neighboring locked cage, but it does not activate the cage lift shortcut. Keep Cage Key if you want the lift.
  • Merchant not required: The key is a pickup below the Crestfallen Merchant. You do not need to buy anything or attack him.
  • Later journeys: This key is removed when a new journey begins. Collect it again if you need to reopen its lock; unlocking the door in the previous journey does not keep it open.
