Alright, let me see if I have this straight: I have one foreleg, one hindleg, no neck, a monkey on my back, one cursed wish left, and a pocket full of sand. The team is scattered over four hells, and my only companion hates me, even more so than the rest of the team did.
"I wish we had wings, monkey."
Yep!
[5]
"....Fine"
You get a truly magnificent pair of angelic wings.
"I dare say this will have to be plan B, good chap. For now, let's see if what is in these caves is as terrible as the sun up in the sky."
Mr. Bird flaps his wings thoughtfully as he peers into the darkness.
"Actually, I have another idea. That light was clearly angry, dear Hyenakles. Maybe that's because anger creates light? What if we could, say, do a similar thing with our own thoughts? Happier ones, I'd imagine."
See if I can perhaps illuminate these tunnels with the power of positive thinking. If the sun is really angry, maybe happy thoughts will make for a nicer radiance? Invite Hyenakles to join me for extra faith in our success.

You do your level best to think happy thoughts but its hard to do with hyenankles grumbling and swearing at you.
"Fuck positive thinking, I'd rather chance the caves."
Carry out the earlier tunnel exploration plan, but using the end of my rifle instead of a bone.
You walk off into the mine, blindly tapping your way through with the tip of your rifle. It takes a few minutes but your eyes grow accustom to the absolute dark to the point that you can see, a VERY faint light in here. Its coming from deeper in, though not as a "Light at the end of the tunnel". Its more ambient; must be hidden behind curves.
Ponder my bigness and the increase thereof. Would perhaps eating lots more greenery help? Could always give it a shot.
That depends. Are you a baby dino or just a vertically challenged one? Because eatting would help in both cases, but in the second case the growth would be more...radial.
"Very well then. Gather a bit more, warbeast, and we'll depart."
Have the warbeast gather a few more trees beyond the amount we'll likely need to rebuild the structures just in case of fuckups, and then do the Xan thing and throw a bigass fireball into the tree lake (after everyone else is out of it).
You get as many trees as you think you'll need before attempting to huck a fire ball in for...who knows what reason.

You summon a fireball as big as your head and toss in into the forest. It ignites a few of the saplings and the brush but only a bit of the nearby woods burn before they go out. Hmmph.
