Dirge is the nickname given to the tenth colossus. This serpentine colossus moves through the loose sand in a gigantic cave in quadrant B4 of the Forbidden Lands.

Dirge is directly west of the Shrine of Worship. Travel across the west land bridge in quadrant F4 and across the Western Plain, staying near the cliffs. Use the sword when the terrain gets rougher; the player should end up on the north end of Dirge's cave. There is a place to save here if needed (for newcomers, it is advised, as this fight can prove challenging). Proceed into the cave, following the tunnels west. There is a large sand-filled room, and upon approaching the light in the middle of the room, Dirge's cutscene will play.

Agro is with Wander again, and she's even more crucial to this battle than the last. Dirge moves very quickly through the sand and can deliver a massive attack with its mouth if it catches up to Wander. If he is ever knocked off Agro, get back on as quickly as possible.

The method of defeating this colossus is tricky to execute. Dirge will chase Wander when he's riding around the arena on Agro; when it gets close enough, it will raise its gigantic eyes out of the sands right before it delivers the attack mentioned previously (if it does, quickly swerve to the left or right). The player must shoot one of its eyes before it has a chance to do so. Should one fail and be hit with Dirge's jump attack, they will take an extreme amount of damage, coming close to death. In this case, go to one of the big pillars, stand off of the sand, and recuperate health by crouching.

Keep Agro running at top speed while keeping the camera on the colossus (hold down L1). While these buttons are both held down, the player should be able to shoot one of Dirge's eyes with a little practice. Let Agro do the steering, and focus on aiming at one of the eyes. A direct hit will send the colossus into the nearest wall or pillar, exposing a climbable section of its back containing its two weakpoints. The player should be able to take one out completely before the colossus is able to dislodge itself. Repeat the process once more for the second weakspot.

After a short cutscene revealing Dirge, "A Messenger From Behind" plays. This music plays while Dirge tunnels around in the sand.
Once Dirge crashes into the wall and is stunned, "Counterattack" plays.

Trivia

Dirge is the second of three limbless, serpentine colossi the player faces over the course of the game, the other two being Hydrus and Phalanx. It is also the third longest of these three and in fact all 16 colossi.
Dirge is the first colossus the player encounters that is seen jumping.
Dirge is the second of only two colossi that are fought underground, the other being Barba. Dirge is one of only two truly subterranean colossi however; both it and Phalanx are able to burrow underground.
Dirge is the most westerly of all the colossi. On the map, Dirge's lair is in line with Avion (Dirge is in B4 while Avion is in H4; there are no other colossi in-between them), although the two are at completely opposite sides of the map. Putting Avion and Dirge in such positions may have been intentional, as the two are quite different to each other in a number of ways. Avion flies, lives above a lake close to the Shrine of Worship, and is relatively peaceful until it is provoked. Dirge on the other hand lives underground in a cave within the sand far away from the Shrine of Worship and is probably one the most aggressive colossi in the game.
Dirge is one of the fastest of all the colossi; it is able to keep up with Agro at full gallop without much effort.
Dirge seems to be the only colossus that genuinely hunts Wander. All other colossi simply try to batter and smash Wander, but Dirge pursues, leaps, and attempts to consume Wander. Outside of Hard Mode, Dirge also does the most damage in a single attack than any other colossus, almost enough to kill Wander.
Dirge is one of the furthest colossi from the central Shrine of Worship as the hawk flies.
