'''Halcandra''' is a world featured in ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land]]'' where [[Magolor]] and [[Landia]] both reside. Halcandra was once home to a powerful race of beings, the departed [[List of rumors of ancient civilizations in the Kirby series|ancients]], who apparently constructed many of the artifacts seen throughout the ''Kirby'' series. In the past, they tasked Landia to guard the [[Lor Starcutter]] and the [[Master Crown]] in the deepest depths of the Haldera Volcano. Magolor claims that Halcandra is also his home, but later reveals that this was a lie, and he instead visited the planet due to being interested in its technology and relics. | '''Halcandra''' is a world featured in ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land]]'' where [[Magolor]] and [[Landia]] both reside.

When Kirby and co. visit it, the world can be described as in poor condition and appears to consist of primarily [[Dangerous Dinner|volcanic-type land]], though a [[Egg Engines|large mechanical scrapyard]] can also be found there. It lies in a dimension separate from [[Popstar]], though this is hardly an issue for the Lor, which can cross through dimensions when in working order. Its position relative to any other worlds in the ''Kirby'' series is unknown. | |||

The world of Halcandra consists of two primary areas. They are [[Egg Engines]], a mostly abandoned industrial park with many robotic entities and hazards, and [[Dangerous Dinner]], the hottest and most treacherous volcanic area on the planet. The most prominent landmark of Halcandra is Haldera Volcano, a large active volcano where Landia stands guard. Pools of water do exist on Halcandra, as do reservoirs and waterways, but they only appear to exist underground. | The world of Halcandra consists of two primary areas.

Following the return of the Lor's last missing piece, Magolor, Kirby and his pals entourage travel here from Popstar using the Lor's warp capabilities, but upon being spotted in the air by Landia, they're shot down once again. In response, Kirby and his friends set out to defeat the dragon, which is their primary goal in this world. Landia serves as the boss of [[Dangerous Dinner]], and defeating him seemingly completes the quest, but in a twist of events, it turns out that Magolor has been tricking the group the entire time. Ever since the beginning, he wanted the [[Master Crown]] to gain its limitless power, and excavated Lor from Haldera Volcano to take on the the four-headed beast, but failed and retreated to Popstar, starting the events of the game. After his monologue, he creates a portal that he goes through, and the heroes chase him down, leaving Halcandra. | Following the return of the Lor's last missing piece, Magolor, Kirby and his pals entourage travel here from Popstar using the Lor's warp capabilities, but upon being spotted in the air by Landia, they're shot down once again.

==Trivia== | |||
*The name ''Hal''candra is another reference to the name of the developer of the game, [[HAL Laboratory]]. It may also be a reference to the naming scheme of planets in [[wikipedia:C.S. Lewis|C.S. Lewis]]'s [[wikipedia:The Space Trilogy|Space Trilogy]] novels, such as "Malacandra" (Mars). Additionally, the Japanese name—ハルカンドラ, ''Harukandora''—is likely a pun on the Japanese word for "distant": 遥か, ''haruka''. | |||
