Stage 1
» Talk To Private Cob in the Savannah at [682, 74, -1714] Dialogue:
 * Private Cob: 'ey there my good chap! I require some assistance!
 * Private Cob: Y'see, I've been tasked to bring some lava over to my cap'n near Mount Wynn.
 * Private Cob: However! The road is completely bubbling with bandits and the undead, right?! Ain't no way I can carry it through.
 * Private Cob: The cap'n said that getting it from Mount Wynn itself woulda been too dangerous, so I picked this safe lava spring, but...
 * Private Cob: Pfft! What a load of baloney! I regret comin' here! Say, ya seem tough! 'bet you could deal with the volcano!
 * Private Cob: Well, if ya want the best route, follow that road with the burn marks . 'sends ya straight to cap'n!
 * Private Cob: Cap'n will tell ya what to do then. Now get movin'!

Stage 2
» Speak to Captain Enduyn at [-192, 44, -1822] Dialogue:
 * Enduyn: At ease, soldier! Did Cob send you?
 * Enduyn: That private can't seem to get the bucket of lava here without trouble.
 * Enduyn: I'm sure you're aware that the Nivla Woods are flooded with spiders! Well, turns out they come from this nest, and it must be stopped!
 * Enduyn: Magic doesn't seem to work against that strong web... The same goes for regular fire. So, we thought... Why not just use lava?!
 * Enduyn: Look, that's our best bet right now. If we can kill the queen, we can control the population.
 * Enduyn: Mount Wynn was considered too dangerous to try and enter, but if Cob sent you to try it out yourself, and you think you can do it, go ahead.
 * Enduyn: So I've got a mission for you, soldier. Head to the top of Mount Wynn, the nearby volcano, and return with lava.
 * Enduyn: Don't worry, it's been dormant for hundreds of years. Now take this bucket and get moving! That cave behind you leads right up.

Stage 3
» Enter Mount Wynn and collect lava through the cave at [-120, 76, -1888]

As you progress through the cave, you will have to avoid Spiderlings and Lava Bombs, and use a pressure plate to jump across a large gap at one point. Then, you have to complete a parkour, as the platforms slowly sink into the lava, so you must be quick. At the end, you can enter the lava collection room.

Dialogue:
 * This should be more than enough lava, you should report back to Captain Enduyn.

Stage 4
» Report to Captain Enduyn with the lava at [-192, 44, -1822] Dialogue: Enduyn will use the lava on the webs, creating a hole and an entrance to the dungeon.
 * Enduyn: Ah perfect! Now give me that bucket.
 * Enduyn: Seems like you've got a real knack for spider killing, would you be willing to tackle the queen?
 * Enduyn: I'll keep dealing with the rest of the spiders in the forest.
 * Enduyn: You know what? You see that tunnel behind you? It goes straight back to Cob's position, over at the lava spring.
 * Enduyn: I'll give you permission to use it. Cob had permission this whole time, I have... no clue why he didn't. Well, what's done is done.
 * Enduyn: Anyways, stand clear, I'm about to burn down the webs! Thanks for your assistance, soldier!
 * Enduyn: Here we go!
 * Enduyn: Now head on in and finish off these pests!
