Themes and Navigation

The interior of Yansamin Shrine

The Yansamin Shrine is composed of three chambers, with the middle chamber acting as an arena for Link to fight against Construct Enemies. As Link enters the Shrine, he will be stripped of all of his equipment and challenged to defeat the Enemies inside.[3] As part of this challenge, the interior of the Shrine is affected by a low Gravity.

On the ground floor, there is an entry hall that provides equipment for Link to fight with. Near this hall, there is a set of platforms leading up to an isolated second level. To the right of these platforms, there is a mechanism in the floor that retracts and pushes upward. Above this mechanism, there is a hollow column blocked by a Cracked Floor Tile. Further away from the entrance from this mechanism, there is another platform with a disjointed ramp leading up to it.

Atop this platform, there are a Spiked Iron Ball and four Bomb Barrels. These Bomb Barrels can be used with the aforementioned mechanism to break the Cracked Floor Tile, creating a lift to the highest level. To the left of this ramped platform, there is an Ascending platform that rises and falls between the second and third levels. The third level is populated by several Constructs and Bomb Barrels.

When Link defeats all of the Enemies, the mysterious voice tells him that his equipment will be returned to him.[4] After this, the portcullis blocking the rear chamber will lift, allowing Link to reach the Statue of Rauru and Sonia. By interacting with the Terminal in front of the Statue, Link can receive a Light of Blessing to cleanse the corruption of Darkness from within him.[5][6]
