The in-Isa shrine is one of the challenges required to open the Temple of Time, located on the South Sky islands. It’s easy to find just after you Leave the first Ukouh Shrine. You can see In-Isa on the right from the Ukouh Shrine’s exit platform.

First Puzzle Solution

Just like before, in the In-Isa Shrine, an ancient ghost approaches you, and this time he will teach Link his new Fuse Ability. Enter the chamber to find the first closed door and the first puzzle solution:

  • Scout the area; you should easily find a rock and an old rusty sword.
  • Equip the Rusty sword first.
  • Pick the Fuse Ability by pressing “L” and use it on the rock. Your rusty sword should be available to pick from the available weapons at the bottom of the screen.
  • Press “y” to connect Boulder and the rusty Claymore sword.
  • Now you have a new custom weapon.
  • Attack the rocky door that blocks access to the next chamber and destroy them by attacking and pressing “y”.

Second Puzzle Solution and the Chest

You will need a bow to solve it. When you enter the next chamber, you’ll notice a glowing green door that requires the key to open it, and on the right is a chest on the top of the rocky pillar. You can destroy the pillar just like the blocking access door and get the loot. Now, you must solve the puzzle in the chamber on your right to get the key.

Here are the steps to solve the second In-Isa Shrine puzzle:

  • Enter the chamber on the Right
  • And collect at least one Fire fruit from the small tree. I advise you to collect all. It may go in handy later during world exploration.
  • To use Fuse Ability, extend your bow by holding “ZR” and pressing “arrow up” simultaneously to pick Fire Fruit from the menu and attach it to the arrow.
  • Still holding the extended bow point and the chest with vines and let go of the “ZR” button to shoot the bow.
  • You will set it on fire, and the chest with the key inside will eventually fall.
  • Loot the chest, open the glowing door and progress to the last chamber.

Captain Construct Fight

The last challenge in the In-Isa Shrine is to defeat a captain construct. Here are some tips.

  • Use your new rock weapon and fire arrows to stand victorious.
  • On the elevation, you can find more fire fruits that can be used in the fight.
  • In case your rusty sword and rock would brake on the right, the elevated platform, you can find more sticks and stones scattered around the chamber.
  • You should get a construct bow and a Captain Construct I Horn from it.
  • Lastly, destroy the rocky wall to complete the Shrine and challenge.

Ultimately, you will receive the Light of Blessing that purges ancient evil and purifies.
