Navigating the complex structures in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom often requires careful planning and a good understanding of aerial movement. Among these sprawling puzzles, the South Lomei Castle Top Floor floating high above the Gerudo region presents a unique challenge for adventure seekers. Discovering its precise location and figuring out how to activate every terminal is essential for completing the overarching prophecy quest line.
Locating the South Lomei Sky Labyrinth
The sky portion of the South Lomei Labyrinth is situated in the southwestern region of the East Gerudo Sky Archipelago. To reach this suspended castle, players can launch from the Gerudo Canyon Skyview Tower to gain initial altitude. From there, utilizing Zonai devices such as a modified Wing attached with rockets offers a reliable path straight to the entrance platform.
Before attempting to solve the interior maze, it is wise to activate the nearby Mayaotaki Shrine. This creates a permanent fast travel point so you can easily return if stamina or supplies run low. Once the shrine is registered, interacting with the primary terminal outside the main gate unlocks access to the sky maze proper.
Navigating the Sky Labyrinth and Terminals
Unlike ground-level mazes, the top floor features zero gravity draft zones that allow you to float between corridors while managing stamina. Your primary objective involves locating four distinct terminals scattered across the grid-like interior. Using your in-game map helps keep track of the star markers indicating where each terminal rests.
To solve the layout efficiently, glide through the central channels and use updrafts to maintain elevation. Players can also leap above the maze structure and dive directly into specific openings leading straight to the terminals. This method saves time and reduces the risk of falling through the bottomless areas.
Activating the Main Ring and Next Steps
Once all four terminals are activated, a massive updraft forms in the center of the structure. Ride this wind gust all the way to the top roof level where the main dragon ring resides. Interacting with this central terminal completes the sky phase of the challenge and opens the passage downward.
A mysterious voice will instruct you to leap from the sky platform directly into the Depths. Diving straight through the opened chasm leads to the final stage of the South Lomei quest line. Preparing strong weapons and durable armor before descending guarantees you are ready for the confrontation waiting below.
