Both the Lycos and Hydyr island chains have volcanos. The Lycos volcano is part of the Kedane Mountains and has not erupted in known history. Hydyr has several volcanos that are active. This means that the islands have many caves and other underground areas, such as lava tubes.
The underdark is not well known nor well explored. Fearsome creatures have been encountered. This has led to speculation that the underground passages may be extensive since these beasts must have a food supply. An organized race of elves, but with dark skin, seems to have a realm of some sort in the underground. Again, not much is known about the dark elves or their realm. If the elves are to be believed, their realm extends under the ocean between the Lycos and Hydyr island chains. The distance is hundreds of miles, so the likelihood of this story being true is slim.
All that being said, reports of Hydyr items showing up for sale in some underground grotto persist.
Known entrances to this underground area are located in the Kedane Mountains near Ice Lake as well as near the center of the Blue Mountains. Again, rumors speculate that there are other entrances. These rumors are based on dark elf sightings and other incursions of strange monsters.
