The Northwest Hebra Cave Crystal Shrine Quest Solution (Rutafu-um Shrine)

1. Activate the shrine and it will reveal where the fragment is. It is at the bottom of the small lake in the middle of the cave.
   
2. Make yourself some icce platforms by using a weapon fuse with an ice block or by using arrows fused with Ice Fruit to make yourself a bridge to the middle of the lake.
   
3. Use Ultrahand to grab the crystal out of the water.
   
4. It will be hard to cross the ice platforms without jumping so reach the Ultrahand out to put the crystal on the shore.
   
5. Return back to the shore and grab the crystal and simply run it back to the shrine to gain access to the shrine.

The shrine itself doesn’t have any puzzles, it’s a “Rauru’s Blessing” reward shrine. Go inside, open the chest, and interact with the green gate at the end to complete the shrine.

For all other Shrines refer to Zelda Tears of the Kingdom All Shrines.
