Josiu Shrine Location

Josiu Shrine is in the North Necluda Sky Archipelago. From the Sahasra Slope Skyview Tower, launch into the air and paraglide east. You’ll immediately come to some small bits of floating island that lead to larger ones below. From here you can easily glide to the larger island with the Shrine pad.

The North Necluda Sky Crystal Shrine Quest Walkthrough

Josiu Shrine seems incredibly difficult at a glance but really it’s just a simple rotational puzzle. A green crystal is on a nearby island, with a laser pointed right at it (remember to activate the Shrine pad to get this laser). Between you and the island is a device you can manipulate with Ultrahand.

Activate Ultrahand and aim it at the green glowing device. You can freely rotate the curved stone walkway.

Place it exactly between the islands, lengthwise. You can now hop and paraglide to it to cross it. If you fail, just warp back to the Shrine pad.

Use this manner to get across to the green crystal, then pick up the crystal with Ultrahand and put it in the CENTER of the rotating platform.

Do not put it on an edge, it WILL fall off when you move the platform if you do! At the center of the platform’s rotational movement, it will stay still.
