|---|---|
| 1 |  Head to the first pillar at the following coordinates: -4060, -3149, 0062. Use Ascend on the ceiling of the pillar to find a breakable cover at the center. |
| 2 |  Equip a hammer-type weapon and destroy the rocks with a jump attack (X > Y). This will reveal a pillar of light that is redirected by an object above it. |
| 3 |  Follow the direction of the light until you find a structure similar with the first pillar, but with a wheel crank at the following coordinates: -4595, -3279, 0046. Push it counter-clockwise until the light hits the second pillar. |
| 4 |  The light will then be reflected to the third pillar and back to the first, creating a large, imperfect, triangle. Follow the light to the third tower at the following coordinates: -4173, -3630, 0075 and go up with Ascend to find two stones and four sticks. |
| 5 |  Attach all six objects together and hold them up with Ultrahand near the platform above for at least five seconds. Release them, quickly Ascend to the platform above, then use Recall on the stones. |
| 6 |  This will make the stones and sticks float near you, where you can grab it with Ultrahand again. |
| 7 |  Do the same on the next platform above, but this time, hop on the stones as it rewinds, so you can reach the top of the pillar. |
| 8 |  Take the sticks and attach them on the wheel crank in the middle, then turn it counter-clockwise until the light triangle is finally complete. |
