How to find it
The cave entrance is on the cliff face at the foot of the Great Plateau, at about -834, -1488, north of Forest of Spirits. Rubble blocks the way and two Horriblins wait inside, so bring a weapon that breaks rock (a hammer or a bomb; Yunobo’s ability also works) and a few arrows. The shrine stands at the end of the tunnel at -709, -1551. The Nogukoyk Lightroot lies directly below it in the Depths.
Solution
Read the ceiling
Ten bowls sit in the floor of the chamber, and the clue is overhead: four green circle marks on the ceiling. Two marks sit above the main floor and two above the staircases, and each one matches the bowl directly beneath it. Tip: the bowls are laid out symmetrically, so the marked ones are the 2nd, 4th, 6th and 8th.
Place the four orbs
Four orbs rest near the bottom of the two staircases (two on each side). Lift each with Ultrahand, carry it over the floor and lower it into the bowl under a ceiling mark. When all four are seated the rear gate opens.
Find the hidden slot
In the second room lift the false tile out of the floor on the left with Ultrahand to reveal an extra slot. Drop the spare orb into it and the gate beside it opens. The chest behind it holds a Hearty Elixir.
Claim the Light of Blessing
Walk through the opened rear gate and up the steps to the altar to collect the Light of Blessing. There is no Korok in this shrine.
The Lightroot below
Directly under this shrine, in the Depths, is the Nogukoyk Lightroot. Light it from below to reveal that part of the Depths map.
