How to find it
Go to Foothill Stable on the road in lower Eldin, then climb the hill above it. The shrine is there, just west of Cephla Lake.
Solution
Check the low ceiling
In the far corner, next to the slope, is a ceiling with breakable blocks. Use a Bomb Arrow or slam the metal boulder into it with Magnesis to knock down a chest holding a Ruby.
Get the sword
On the right slope, hold the metal boulder with Magnesis and drag it up with you. At the top is a chest holding a Knight’s Broadsword.
Freeze the middle boulder
Stasis the middle boulder where it first drops and run up beside it, stepping aside before the effect ends.
Plow up the left slope
Carry the metal boulder to the left slope, hold it in front of you with Magnesis and push it down against the incoming boulders so it forces them away. Walk up behind it to the monk Mo’a Keet and take the Spirit Orb.
Chests and rewards
- Ruby: hidden chest above the breakable ceiling.
- Knight’s Broadsword: at the top of the right-hand slope.
- Spirit Orb: from the monk Mo’a Keet.
