The Tears of the Kingdom In-isa Shrine is the second one you’ll come across during the tutorial section. Here, you’ll receive the The Legend of Zelda TotK Fuse ability, and learning to use it will be key to completing the Shrine.

If you’ve already completed the Tears of the Kingdom Ukuoh Shrine, we’ll help you out with the Tears of the Kingdom In-isa Shrine, so you can get on your way to the Tears of the Kingdom Gutanbac Shrine to finish off.

Where is the In-isa Shrine in Tears of the Kingdom?

The Tears of the Kingdom In-isa Shrine is found in the southwest area of the Great Sky Island. After leaving the Ukuoh Shrine, use your Purah Pad to look roughly south-southwest, and you should see it. The coordinates of the In-isa Shrine are 0027, -1503, 1408

In-isa Shrine walkthrough

In the first room, you’ll find a large stone wall with boulders surrounding it. Using your new Fuse ability, target one of the boulders and attach it to one of your weapons to make a club. Hit the stone wall with your club to destroy it, and proceed to the next room.

In the second room, you’ll find four stone pillars. Use your club to break the pillar in the far left corner. A chest will fall down containing five arrows. You don’t need to bother breaking any of the other pillars.

The room ahead is blocked by a locked door, so enter the room on the right. You’ll find two rows of fire fruit trees and an old wooden bow. Collect all of these. Ahead of you is a chest on a wooden platform surrounded by leaves. Equip the bow and begin to draw an arrow. Press up on the D-Pad to bring up the Fuse menu, and select fire fruit to set your arrow on fire. Shoot your arrow at the leaves to set them alight, which will destroy the platform and drop the chest. Open the chest to receive a small key.

Return to the main room and use the small key to open the door. Follow the path to reach a room with a Captain Construct. You can shoot the leaves on the ground with another fire arrow to deal a large amount of damage. Climbing a small ladder to the left, you’ll find some wooden weapons and spikes which can be fused to your weapons for a damage boost. Upon defeating the Captain Construct, you’ll be rewarded with a construct bow.

Use your club from earlier to break the stone wall ahead of you. If your club has broken, the Captain Construct drops a stick with a boulder fused to it which you can use instead.

Enter the next room and interact with the Shrine to complete it. A short cutscene will play, and you will receive a Light of Blessing as a reward.
