Takamagahara Shrine

Takamagahara Shrine (Japanese: 高天原廟, "Takamagaharabyō" / lit. "Plain of High Heaven's Shrine") is a midgame section of the ruins. A remnant of the 1st Children, the Kotoamatsu, are sealed here. The area has a distinct Japanese theme.

Map

 * Location: (D-2)
 * Place a weight on the left dais.
 * To reach the dais, use the Katana to break the floor in the room above where the blue skeleton is patrolling to reveal a ladder down.

Sacred Orb

 * Location: (D-5)
 * Break the floor with your Knife or Katana, then place a weight on the dais under the non-moving white platform. Run to the little hole in the left, because the white platform will try to crush you!

Crystal Skull

 * Location: (C-6)
 * Use the right-most moving platform to crouch-walk through the invisible wall toward the Life Seal and break it. Then, warp back to the Grail Tablet and use the 2nd moving platform from the left to walk through the left wall to get to the chest.

Egg of Creation

 * Location: (E-6)
 * Defeat Daji.

Flare Gun

 * Location: (F-3)
 * From the top-left of the room, use the Gale Fibula to dash past all of the death traps. Jump just before hitting the wall to delay your bonk, and then place a weight on the dais. Warp back to the Grail Tablet, because (from what I can tell) there is no other way to escape this trap. This is possibly a bug, since there is a wall break effect, yet you still cannot pass through the wall.
 * Shurikens were effective in taking down the wall, not sure if there is a potential bug that prevents it for certain players.

Ring

 * Location: (B-4)
 * Bring Key Fairy Herja with you to (B-4), destroying the wall to the left from (C-4), then use the Katana to break the walls to get to the Life Seal she reveals, and to get to the chest, too.

Power Band

 * Location: (A-2)
 * Defeat Belial, then remove the curse using the Mulana Talisman.

Get to D-7

 * Location: (D-6)
 * Break the floor at the far left of (E-6) using the Knife or Katana. Place a weight on the dais that appears. Don't let the left wall crush you!

Open access to Ancient Chaos

 * Location: (C-7)
 * Break the floor above the door.

Belial

 * Location: (D-4)
 * Whip the bottom-right wall. Beware the wall enemy: It can OHKO you if it pushes you against the wall.

Raijin & Fujin

 * Location: (E-3)
 * Touch the bottom-left corner of the room.

Opening up A-2

 * Location: (A-1)

Kami-musubi

Amenotokotachi

Shitateruhime
