'''A key''' is an item found in the [[Gnome Village Dungeon]]. It can be found in a crate in the storeroom to the north east of the dungeon entrance. It opens the door to the cell in which [[Golrie]] is contained, found north west of the dungeon entrance. This makes it easy to pick up the key when needed and so there is little advantage in keeping it in the bank. Upon finding it, a [[player]] will receive the message "You found a large key". It cannot be stored on a [[Steel key ring]].

Note that if a player has a low [[combat level]], they will likely receive [[damage]] from the surrounding [[monsters]] while searching the [[crates]] for the key.

The key is first used in the [[Waterfall Quest]]. The key is needed to unlock the door where the [[gnome]] named [[Golrie]] is hiding from [[Hobgoblins]] that have invaded the dungeon. Once the door is unlocked, Golrie will give the player [[Glarial's pebble]], which is required to enter [[Glarial's Tomb]] near [[Baxtorian Falls]]. Players can repeat this after the quest if glarial's pebble is needed again. It is recommended to keep this the pebble in the bank, or instead [[Glarial's amulet]] once received, in order to avoid the need to speak to Golrie again at a later date, since the amulet is required to enter the [[Waterfall Dungeon]].

The key is also needed in [[The Eyes of Glouphrie]] and [[The Path of Glouphrie]]. You need to access the room that Golrie was hiding in during the [[Waterfall Quest]] to acquire extra coloured shapes.

In [[Roving Elves]], Golrie has traded places with the hobgoblins. He is no longer located behind a locked door. As such, a player should no longer need the key if they wish to retrieve [[Glarial's pebble]].
