===First visit - Accessing [[Whale Bay]]===
===First visit Accessing [[Whale Bay]]===


[[Rayman]] can first visit the Skull Cave at any time after his arrival at [[Globox's House]] by taking a lift shaft near the aforementioned house, which leads directly into the cave. Upon his first visit, [[Rayman]] will find very little of interest, a rock shaped like a skull (that the entire cave is named after) which is inaccessible, and the entrance to [[the Sanctuary of Stone and Fire]] which is unreachable and also blocked by a massive tentacle. The only thing remotely interesting is a locked door, guarded by two sleeping pirates who awaken if an alarm is triggered. This is the entrance to [[Whale Bay]]. Back at [[Globox's House]], [[Rayman]] can meet a [[Baby Globox]], who will offer to help. If [[Rayman]] can get the [[Baby Globox]] to the security door and place him in a small crack to its left, either defeating the pirates or avoiding detection by them, he will open the door, allowing [[Rayman]] to access [[Whale Bay]].

===Second visit Accessing [[the Sanctuary of Stone and Fire]]===


After completing [[Whale Bay]] and [[the Canopy]], [[Rayman]] will have his next incentive to return to the Skull Cave. Arriving at the blocked and unreachable entrance to [[the Sanctuary of Stone and Fire]], [[Carmen the Whale]] will appear, now freed due to [[Rayman]]'s exploits in [[Whale Bay]], and get rid of the tentacle blocking the entrance. This still leaves the entrance inaccessible, but that can be solved by returning to [[Globox's House]] and asking [[Globox]] himself for aid. [[Globox]] will be rested up from his capture and escape from [[the Canopy]] and follow [[Rayman]] back to the cave, where he will use his [[Rain Dance]] on a plant nearby, allowing it to glow and grant [[Rayman]] a way of finally entering the sanctuary to retrieve the [[Four Masks of Polokus|second mask]].

===Third visit - Accessing [[Rainbow Creek]]===
===Third visit Accessing [[Rainbow Creek]]===


[[Rayman]] will return again to Skull Cave very soon after. Once he has the second mask from [[the Sanctuary of Stone and Fire]], he will learn that [[Clark]] is waiting to help him in Skull Cave. Upon meeting [[Clark]] near the entrance to [[Whale Bay]], the giant tells [[Rayman]] that he will open up a path to the third mask, which he does by smashing down a wooden wall and revealing a previously unknown tunnel. In the tunnel, [[Rayman]] and [[Clark]] will encounter a few pirates, which [[Clark]] will chase after. Unfortunately, [[Admiral Razorbeard's Lackey]] uses this opportunity to catch [[Rayman]] alone and ambush him, leaving the hero to fight a huge swarm of [[Robo-Pirate army|pirates]] on his own. Once [[Rayman]] overcomes this rough challenge, he can enter [[Rainbow Creek]].

[[Rayman]] would then not return to Skull Cave until much later on in the game, once he has the third mask from [[the Lava Sanctuary]]. Now that he has the ability to hover above lava, he can easily reach the skull shaped rock, beyond which lies his next destination, [[the Tomb of the Ancients]].
