Solving it

Book

Read the book

Go to the Mountain Peak Log Cabin and read the book. It starts the quest and hints at the pedestal.

Make a cold shadow

Small snowballs lie around the area. Roll one until it grows large enough, then hold it so that its shadow covers the centre of the glowing pedestal.

Wait for the light

The pedestal only glows for a short time in the late afternoon, around 4 PM. Keep the shadow on the pedestal until the shrine rises, then enter for a Spirit Orb.
