How to Complete Mayaumekis Shrine

By
Seren Morgan-Roberts

This page details how to complete Mayaumekis Shrine, which is found in the Hebra Sky Region in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.

Where to Find Mayaumekis Shrine

Mayaumekis Shrine is found in the Hebra Sky region (Map Marker). More specifically, you’ll find this shrine on the Rising Island Chain in the north eastern portion of the Hebra region.

If you’re in this region because you’re completing the Wind Temple with Tulin, then you’ll have gotten to the Rising Island Chain by climbing up to the top of Hebra Peak. But, if you’re wanting to get here on a separate occasion, then you’ll find it easiest to get there by shooting out from Pikida Stonegrove Skyview Tower (Map Marker) and heading west towards the glow of the shrine whilst you’re still in the air!

Mayaumekis Shrine: How to Open the Gate

We’d be lying if we said that the initial puzzle of how to open the gate inside the shrine didn’t stump us for a good while! You can’t use ultrahand or recall or anything like that. Instead, you want to shoot an arrow at the orange light through the metal bars in the other room!

In the next room, it’s all quite straightforward: you’ll need to use the bouncy sails of the boats to propel you through the shrine. Firstly, you’ll need to head up the stairs, and deal with the Construct Enemy up ahead. If you’re low on arrows (you’ll need some later on), you can loot him for x5 arrows!

Then, jump onto the boat sail to propel yourself up onto the platform above. You can then walk straight over and jump on the sail the other sails near the large building bit on the other side of the shrine.

When you jump on this next sail, you’ll fly up past a grated window - equip your bow and shoot (mid-air) at the light pillar. When you successfully hit it, it’ll turn green and open up the floor of the cube.

Shoot the pillar mid air to open up the floor of the cube.

You can then use the sails below to catapult yourself through the newly opened floor to arrive at the end of the shrine. However, before you do this, we recommend you take a second to grab the treasure chest!

Mayaumekis Shrine: How to Get the Treasure Chest

Before heading to the end of the shrine, turn your gaze towards the wall opposite and you’ll see a high up platform with a chest on it. You may have also spotted a moving ship below - your aim is to use this moving ship to get you close enough to the platform so you can reach it. To do this, you’ll need to jump on one of the other sails and time when you jump onto the moving ship. It needs to be right in front of the platform before you jump on it otherwise you won’t be able to reach the platform. The chest contains x10 "Arrow" iconArrows.

(1 of 2) Use the moving ship to spring up to the treasure chest platform

After grabbing the treasure, proceed back to the other side of the shrine and use the sail trampoline to propel yourself up to the end of the shrine where you can obtain your "Light of Blessing" iconLight of Blessing.
