Magma Village is one of the more demanding islands in the reworked First Sea, mostly because its three secrets are spread across a lava pool, a hidden mine, and a timed volcano event. All three funnel back to the same NPC, The Mayor, who hands over the stars that mark the island as finished.
Quick answer: Break the magma source in the lava pool and kill the giant Magma Elemental, destroy the Magma Drill inside Volcano Cave and escape before the timer expires, then shatter the glowing magma spots on the volcano and defeat Magma General (Awakened) [Lv. 350]. Talk to The Mayor after each one to claim the star.
The three Volcano Island secrets and where they start
Each secret has its own trigger point, and two of them only open up after you speak to the right NPC. Nothing counts until you report back.
| Secret | Where it starts | Objective |
|---|---|---|
| Magma Elementals | Lava pool near the dock | Kill the small elementals, break the central magma source, kill the giant one |
| Magma Drill | Hidden Sword Dealer (Living Skeleton), then the mine elevator at the island’s edge | Trigger and destroy the drill inside Volcano Cave, then get out |
| Awakened volcano boss | Secrets Master in Middle Town | Break the volcano’s magma spots, then defeat Magma General (Awakened) [Lv. 350] |
Secret 1: Clear the Magma Elementals at the lava pool

Secret 2: Destroy the Magma Drill in Volcano Cave

Secret 3: Trigger the eruption and beat the awakened boss
This is the one you cannot force. The awakened boss on each island only has a chance to spawn on an hourly cycle, so you check first and then wait for the window.



How to confirm Magma Village is complete
When the third star is claimed, the island reads MAGMA VILLAGE COMPLETED on the map screen. That is the only confirmation you need. If the map still shows a missing star, one of the three objectives was finished but never turned in at The Mayor.
The payoff is twofold. Each secret you hand in grants extra levels that push past the normal cap, with Update 30 raising the ceiling to Level 3000, and finishing all three stars on an island unlocks it as a destination on the Middle Town teleporter. Across the First Sea there are 40 stars in total.
Why a Magma Village secret is not triggering
- The star was never claimed. Completing the objective is only half of it; The Mayor has to hand it to you.
- The drill run timed out. If you are still in Volcano Cave when the escape timer expires, the second secret does not count.
- The awakened boss is not in rotation. The Secrets Master has to point to Magma Village, otherwise the volcano event will not start no matter how many magma spots you hit.
- Magma spots are still intact. The eruption only fires once every glowing pocket on the volcano’s exterior is destroyed, including the ones on the far side.
Realistically, the lava pool and the drill can both be knocked out in a single visit. It is the awakened boss that decides how long the island takes, so check in with the Secrets Master before you make the trip and use the wait to clear the other two stars.
