◈ Select a shrine to explore its location.

Southeast of the Temple of Time, at the top of the snowy mountain. The cold drains hearts, so grab the spicy peppers at the mountain base and cook them at the pot for cold-resistance food (or wear the Archaic Warm Greaves). The route: up the slope, right to the icy river, talk to the Maker Construct for an Energy Cell, raft across (hit the fan), up the stairs, climb past the waterfall, cross the bridge, beat the Construct, more peppers and a second pot, up the stairs to the icy pool, and climb the rock face behind the waterfall to the summit. Coordinates match our 152-shrine table.

Step-by-step solution

Gutanbac Shrine grants Ascend and sits in the cold zone of the Great Sky Island — the route there is half the trial.

1. First Ascend, Stone Axe chest and the taller block

Walk to the end of the path and Ascend through the ceiling.

Chest 1: rise through the smaller block on the left — the chest on top holds a Stone Axe.

Drop down and Ascend through the taller block.

2. Soldier Construct Fight and Construct Bow Chest

Beat the Soldier Construct — an arrow to the eye staggers it.

Chest 2: break the two crates on the right, stand inside the small opening and Ascend: Construct Bow.

3. Rope slab, moving platform and altar

Cut the two ropes on the left to drop the hanging slab, stand under it, Ascend.

Ascend onto the moving platform, ride until it passes under the block above, and Ascend again.

Take the Light of Blessing at the altar.
