"Drogyga's domain" is a room in Burenia. It appears in Metroid Dread, and is where Samus fights Drogyga, the boss of Burenia.
Description[]
This is an underwater chamber near the top of the Burenia facility. It is one of a handful of rooms in Dread to have no doors in or out of it; only Pit Blocks that provide a one way entrance and exit.
Much of the room is obstructed by Drogyga itself, which is embedded into the back wall and takes up space in the center of the in-game plane. On either side of Drogyga are port holes with bars, through which it will unleash tentacles during its battle. At the base of both walls are Shootactivators that are connected to water wheels, controlling the level of water in the room. When Samus shoots one, part of the water will drain from the ceiling, allowing her to use a sliding platform lined with a blue magnetic strip on the ceiling. This carries her over Drogyga to its other side, where she can shoot the other Shootactivator. Doing so fully drains the water from the room and leaves Drogyga vulnerable to attack.
When Drogyga is defeated, the water is permanently drained from the room, while the water wheels are placed in a state of permanent operation. Drogyga's corpse shrivels up and sinks into the background, exposing three tiles of Pit Blocks in the floor. Samus can drop through these to escape. The sliding platforms remain operational, although using them is rather pointless after.
