- “Find the Eternal Source of Air!”
- – Chapter Subtitle
Stormy Stronghold is the fourth chapter in the console version of Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure. Here the Skylanders and Flynn come to retrieve the Eternal Air Source, only to find the castle spinning around in a giant twister that was caused by the Drow's attempts to control the power of the Eternal Air Source. By lowering the lightning pylons, the Skylanders can rebuild the castle and stop the tornado.
Description
Stormy Stronghold is a Drow fortress with a long, spiraling walkway and many spear traps. The majority of its sky appears gray and tempestuous, dominated by the swirling gray funnel of a massive tornado, while the bottom of the sky remains a dusky yellow-orange.
Story
Boosted by the newly acquired Golden Propeller, Flynn flies his balloon towards the stronghold. There, a massive tornado is ripping it to pieces, which was caused from a failed attempt by the Drow to harness the power of the Eternal Air Source. Dropped off by Flynn, the Skylanders battle through an army of Drow, Chompies, and Spell Punks in order to lower all four lightning pylons, which stops the tornado and repairs the stronghold.
Crossing the reassembled bridge, the Skylanders work their way to the top of the castle, battling more Drow and Windbag Djinnis. After defeating the last of the enemies at the top of the castle, the Skylanders finally reclaim the Eternal Air Source, the first piece of the Core of Light.

Trivia
- While Stonetown was the first designed level for the project as a whole, Stormy Stronghold was the first level designed for the Spyro's Adventure stage of production.[1][2]
- Stormy Stronghold shares its skybox with Troll Warehouse.
- Stormy Stronghold is similar to Shattered Island, as both levels are being torn apart by a massive tornado.
- A lone sheep can be seeing whirling around in the tornado before all the lightning pylons are lowered.
- In the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 version, the location names for "The Approach" and "Lower Reach" are swapped.
