Go to Dungeon 7
Go south once, then go west until you can't go west anymore. Go north, then west, then south. There is a thin line of trees on the left side of the screen, and above the thin line there are two trees side-by-side. Use the candle to burn the leftmost of those two trees. Then go north, west, southeast, and south to reach the stairs that were just revealed. Go down those stairs.
Optional: Get the Compass
If you really want the compass, go west to get it. Then go east to return to the dungeon's first room.
Get a Key
Go east to find a room with Darknuts and Pols Voices. Go east from there. The room is dark, but first you should go toward the right side of the room (while avoiding enemies) until you are standing on the stepladder. This way, enemies can't touch you. Wait until it is safe, then go through the east door.
Kill the Gibdos and Darknuts. Then push the leftmost block that is in the same row as the doors. Go down the stairs and follow the passage until you are upstairs again.
You will be in a room with a bunch of Keese. Go south.

Get the Map
Go back upstairs, then go north. Kill all the Keese (if any) then push the leftmost block and go down the stairs. Follow the passage until you are upstairs.
From the room with flashing Bubbles, go east. You will encounter Manhandla. You have to kill it to be able to exit the room. After it is dead, push the leftmost block. Then go east.
Go to the right until you are on the stepladder. Then use the candle if you wish. Keep using the stepladder in this room to help avoid the enemies. If you touch a red bubble, be sure to touch the blue one so you can use your sword again. When you are able, go north through the door.
