How to find it
The last verse of Daruk‘s song concerns surviving lava’s fate, and the obelisk map shows Darb Pond. Talk to the Gorons from Gut Check Rock; a ring sits above the lava. Pull the large metal crate on the pond’s west bank to the ring with Magnesis. Return to the cliff above, glide down onto the box and the shrine reveals itself. Leave by teleporting or with Revali‘s Gale because the box is hot.
Solution
Crouch under the first jets
Flame jets shoot from both sides of the entrance. Crouch beneath them and move quickly or the heat hurts you.
Lower the pillar
Where the jets cannot be ducked, the pillar on the left has a crumbling base. Throw a Remote Bomb and detonate it to drop the pillar and the lower flame. At the next set, pull the metal block out of the pillar’s base to remove one jet and use it as a shield against the other.
Cross the flame hall
In the next hall, set one metal block on the left of the flame-hit platform and angle the other to wedge the upper right, making a gap through the fire.
Chest on the right
As you pass the flames, look right to a platform you can reach with the boxes. The chest holds a Stone Smasher.
Quench the last flames
On the long platform, use the apparatus: flip it upside down until the two E-shaped sections face the jets on both ends and block them. Release it and cross to the monk.
Chests and rewards
- Stone Smasher: chest on a platform to the right of the flame hall.
- Rudania’s Emblem: from the monk.
