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


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 is said to be a long way from [[Popstar]], though the distance is hardly an issue for the Lor when it is in working condition. Its position relative to any other worlds in the ''Kirby'' series is unknown, though it is implied by Magolor to be in [[Another Dimension]].

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, sporting its tallest mountain and volcano where Landia stands guard. Pools of water do exist on Halcandra, but they only appear to do so underground.
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.


Halcandra's denizens are largely the same as the ones in [[Popstar]], though many have altered appearances to make them more robotic, implying a higher technological level of development. Much like in Popstar, their only purpose seems to be guarding the sites that Kirby and his friends traverse through, with the mysterious [[Metal General]] of the [[Egg Engines]] stage being the most prudent example.

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 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.
