The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom - Orochium Shrine Solution

The Orochium Shrine (Courage to Fall) will begin with a pair of closed doors that can be pulled open using Link's new Ultrahand ability. After opening the doors, players will see some red laser beams; while these will not hurt Link, touching them will cause the floor to drop, sending Link to a bottomless pit.

Instead of going through the laser-filled hallway, go to the left side of the shrine to find a Construct. Defeat it and then go to the end of the path. Use the Ascend ability to traverse through the platform hugging the wall on the right, as shown in the image below.

Once players are on top of the platform, head up the ladder and crouch with a click of the left control stick to enter the crevice. Drop down to the lower level on the right --players will see a Construct down there.

Defeat it and then go around the corner to find another Construct near a treasure chest. Players will find five arrows inside said chest. Now, head up the stairs and pull the doors open using Tears of the Kingdom's Ultrahand power.

In the next hall with the lasers, go ahead and touch one to safely drop to the lower level. Run to the end of the hall and then use Ascend to get to the top of the platform. There will be a chest up here in this room, so open it to find a Small Key, which will be used in a minute to progress through the Orochium Shrine.

Once the key is obtained, go ahead and use the Ascend ability one more time to reach a room where a small ball is locked inside a cage.

Take care of the enemies and then use the key to open the door leading to the ball. Pick up the ball with Ultrahand or Link's bare hands and put it on the moving platform in this same room. There are two, but pick the one on the left side, as seen in the picture below.

Walk up the steps and then careful place the ball into the slotted hole so that the gate can rise. Players can now take hold of the Wing glider with Ultrahand.

Now, stand on the glider and smack the two Zonai fans with a melee weapon. This will cause the glider to soar through the air, and players can bring the small ball safely to the second slotted hole to open the final door to the end of the shrine.

Like any other shrine, players will be rewarded with yet another Blessing of Light, which can be used at a Goddess Statue to increase Link's stamina or health.
