Sakunbomar Shrine Location and Solution (TotK)

Before you start

Korok Forest is entered from the Depths by Ascending the Great Deku Tree’s roots, and the Koroks only speak once the Deku Tree is cured. If Musanokir Shrine is already active, fast travel there. The location matches our 152-shrine table.

None Shall Pass? quest

1. Talk to Zooki, the Korok on the west side of Korok Forest. He wants a shrine looked at but is scared of the monsters around it. Take the path behind him.
2. Follow the Blue Nightshade. A trail of the blue flowers marks the route. Expect Evermeans, Stalkoblins and Stalmoblins on the way — clear them as you go.
3. Activate the empty shrine entrance. A green beam of light shoots out from it toward the crystal.
4. Follow the beam to its end: the green crystal is embedded in a small structure on the ground.
5. Wake the Stone Talus. Approaching the crystal rouses a Talus that was lying dormant — the crystal is on its back.
6. Ascend onto it. Stand under the Talus and use Ascend to pop out on top of its body.
7. Hit the crystal. Attack the green crystal to drain the Talus’s health. Jump off when it starts to shake, then Ascend back up and repeat until it breaks apart.
8. Carry the crystal back to the shrine entrance with Ultrahand and set it in place.
9. Walk in — the shrine is open.

Step-by-step solution

1. Defeat the Stone Talus and retrieve the green crystal

Sakunbomar Shrine is a blessing with a boss in front of it: the green crystal you need is lodged in a Stone Talus.

2. Collect the Diamond chest and Light of Blessing inside

The chest straight ahead holds a Diamond; the altar gives the Light of Blessing.
