Kurakat Shrine (Rauru’s Blessing)

Kurakat Shrine is a Rauru’s Blessing shrine with no puzzle inside, but it is hidden until you finish the shrine quest Dyeing to Find It in the ruins on Quatta’s Shelf: turn the stone mechanism so its shadow covers the white pattern at sunrise. Inside, the chest holds a Magic Scepter and the terminal gives the Light of Blessing. The Takaruk Lightroot lies directly beneath it in the Depths.

How to find it

Kurakat Shrine is at map coordinates 2361, -510 (height 169), in the ruins on Quatta’s Shelf, north-west of Mount Lanayru. A Steward Construct stands on a large stone block that does not look like a shrine at all; its riddle tells you to dye the white pattern black when the sun awakens. The white pattern is on the rock wall facing the block.

Solution

Reveal the shrine with the sunrise shadow

Talk to the Steward Construct, then use the axle beside the stone mechanism to rotate it and fit a wooden plank into one of its slots with Ultrahand (try the other slot if the shadow will not line up). One guide has you slot in one board and fuse a second board across it so the shadow covers the pattern’s top line. Light the nearby campfire and rest until morning. At sunrise, rotate the mechanism until its shadow covers the white pattern on the cliff wall opposite (around 6:00 AM), and the shrine rises from the ruins. Adjust the rotation after waking if the shadow does not fully cover the pattern.

Open the chest

Walk up the stairs to the chest on the central platform. It holds a Magic Scepter.

Take the Light of Blessing

Climb the stairs to the terminal and touch it to receive the Light of Blessing.

The Lightroot below

Directly under this shrine, in the Depths, is the Takaruk Lightroot. Light it from below to reveal that part of the Depths map.
