How to restore the Fishing Shrine in Kena: Bridge Of Spirits
Fairly early on in Kena: Bridge Of Spirits, you must collect three relics belonging to Beni and Saiya’s brother, Taro, in order to help free his spirit. One of these three quests - Taro’s Love - takes you to the Forgotten Forest where you must restore the four Ancient Shrines to open the Guardian Tree. The Fishing Shrine is the eastern-most of the shrines. Like the other Shrines, you must use the Rot to purify the Deadzone Heart growing over the Shrine, but first the Deadzone Heart must be opened up. There are four stone statues surrounding the small island where the Fishing Shrine is located, and each of these statues has a blue crystal that can be shot with an arrow from your Spirit Bow. The trick is that you need to shoot them in the right order, otherwise nothing will happen except a couple of Moth enemies spawning as punishment for your failure.
Here’s how to solve the Fishing Shrine puzzle:
If you want to know how on earth you were meant to figure out that order: stand in front of the Shrine and pulse once, and take a close look at the candles below the Shrine. There are four sets - each representing one of the surrounding crystals - and they will light in the order you need to shoot the crystals. Shooting the crystals in this order will open up the Deadzone Heart, allowing you to destroy it and purify the Fishing Shrine. Take a look at the video above to see this in action.
