Ride the Giant Horse quest
- Examine the empty shrine on the hilltop. A beam of light leads to a man standing by the crystal.
- Talk to Baddek. He is hunting the Giant White Horse the Highland Stable gossips about, and agrees to give up the crystal if you bring the horse to him.
- Check your stamina. Taming needs at least two stamina wheels. Early in the game, sleep at Highland Stable in a Malanya bed for a temporary extra wheel, or bring stamina food and elixirs.
- Ask around at Highland Stable. The stable hands’ clues point to Ibara Butte, beside the Lake of the Horse God.
- Sneak up on the horse. Take off any noisy armour and crouch in. It will probably notice you at the last moment — sprint the final stretch and mount.
- Tame it. Press L repeatedly until it calms down. This is where the two wheels go.
- Optional: register it at Highland Stable if you want to keep the Giant White Horse.
- Ride back to Baddek. He does not take the horse — seeing it is enough — and gives you the crystal.
- Carry the crystal to the shrine with Ultrahand. Ishokin Shrine opens.

Step-by-step solution
1. Ride the Giant White Horse to the NPC
Ishokin Shrine is a horse-taming errand: the crystal belongs to a man who wants to see the Giant White Horse, and he will not part with it until you ride one up to him.
2. Collect the Chest and Light of Blessing
The chest in the centre of the room holds a Topaz; the altar gives the Light of Blessing.
