Step-by-step solution
Buried Light is about uncovering tools and light sources beneath sand, then aiming reflected light at the shrine’s hexagonal targets.
1. Get the Small Key and Enter
Take the first fan. Use Ultrahand to lift the Zonai Fan from the sand pile near the locked door.
Uncover the Small Key. Turn on the fan and clear the sand piles in the left corner. Open the revealed chest for the Small Key.
Unlock the door. Open the locked door and carry the fan into the next room.
2. Secret Room and Updraft
Open the secret route. Defeat the Construct, turn right, and blow away the small sand pile in the corner to expose a hole into a secret room.
Make an updraft. Clear the secret room’s sand, defeat the hidden Construct, and take its Fan Guster. Set the other fan on the floor near the far back corner, switch it on, and ride the updraft to the high platform.
Open the chest gate. Use the Fan Guster to clear the sand beside the gear. When the gear moves, the adjacent gate opens; take Arrow x10 from the chest.
3. Reveal and Redirect the Light Beam
Reveal the first mirror. Return to the previous room and clear the sand near the altar chamber to uncover a Zonai Mirror. Leave it there, then use Ascend on the nearby ledge.
Expose the light beam. Drop into the enclosure, defeat the Construct, and use the fan to clear the sand piles. This reveals a large beam of light and another Zonai Mirror.
Send light back. Place that mirror over the light source and angle it so the beam reaches the previous room.
Return with Ascend. Use Ascend on the nearby ledge to go back.
4. Open the Altar Door
Open the altar door. Pick up the mirror you left behind and aim the incoming beam at the hexagon above the altar door.
Altar. Enter the opened chamber and examine the altar for the Light of Blessing.
