The Mo'a Keet Shrine,[1] designated by the Trial name Metal Makes a Path,[1] is an Ancient Shrine in Breath of the Wild.

Entrance to the Shrine

The Mo'a Keet Shrine is located atop a cliff to the east of Foothill Stable in the Eldin Canyon. As Link enters the Ancient Shrine, he is greeted by its Monk, Mo'a Keet.[2]

Themes and Navigation

Mo'a Keet Shrine consists of three floors, each connected by ramps where Boulders continuously drop from a chute above and roll down, eventually falling into pits of Lava at the bottom. When the Boulders fall into the Lava, another drops down in its place. On the first ramp rolls a stone Boulder. The second floor platform has another two sets of ramps. On the left ramp rolls three boulders in a row, while on the right ramp rolls an Iron Ball.

To climb the first ramp, Link must use the Stasis Rune to suspend the rolling Boulder before it hits him. He can then use a Weapon to knock the suspended boulder away. Alternately, Link can also suspend the Boulder just as it falls from the chute but before it lands, allowing him to run underneath it to the second platform.

On the second platform, Link must take the ramp to the left. On this ramp, the multiple Boulders prevent Link from simply suspending one and knocking it away. Instead, Link must carry the Iron Ball from the right ramp using Magnesis and push the Boulders away from him. Alternately, it is possible to suspend one of the Boulders as it falls from the chute with Stasis, which will block the other Boulders from falling in that period.

At the end of the left ramp is the Monk's Pedestal. When approached, Mo'a Keet commends Link for completing the Trial and gives him a Spirit Orb as a reward.[3] Following this, the Monk will wish Link well before fading away.[4]

In Mo'a Keet Shrine's ceiling are four cracked blocks, concealing a Treasure Chest in a hidden recess. These blocks can be destroyed by carrying the Iron Ball with Magnesis and slamming it through them or by firing Bomb Arrows at them. The Chest contains a Ruby inside. On the second platform, there is a Treasure Chest located on the ramp to the right. Link can use the Magnesis Rune to grab and carry the Iron Ball as it falls, allowing him to easily reach the Chest. When it is opened, Link will receive a Knight's Broadsword.
