The shrine is located underground in a cave system, and you’ll need to empty the pool of water it’s in to access it.

There are a few Horriblins you need to defeat before reaching the shrine, which is standing in a pool of water. The water around the shrine must be drained before you can enter. Descend into the cave below, defeat the Like Like on the ceiling and you’ll see a cluster of cracked rocks in the ceiling. Blow it up with a bomb flower attached to an arrow, and the water will run out. Use Ascend to take you back to the shrine and enter.


Anedamimik Shrine puzzle solution

As the name of the quest “A Retraced Path” suggests, Anedamimik Shine is all about using To remind to send a giant ball back to where it came from. You will have to use To take off to grab the breast here too.

1. As you enter, notice the assembly on the wall to your right: a chute dropping a large metal ball, a bowl switch mounted vertically next to the chute, and a platform with a chest. If you hit the switch column in front of you, this whole assembly will slide back and forth.

2. Press the switch once and slide the wall mount towards the back of the shrine. This brings the platform with the box over the shrine floor. Run to it and use To take off to reach the chest and claim a Great Zonai Attack.

3. Go back to the switch and hit it again to return the wall to its original position, with the ball falling out of the chute and rolling across the room in front of you.

4. Cast To remind on the ball as it rolls across the floor to send it back to the chute.

5. Press the switch immediately after the throw recall to move the wall assembly forward so that the bowl switch is where the parachute was. The ball will follow its trajectory backwards to fit neatly into the socket.

6. This will open the gate to the next room. Keep running before your Recall spell ends, because when it does, the ball will fall out of the bowl and the gate will close. Examine the sigil to get you Light of blessing.
