The quest does not have a fixed completion time or a single compact mission area; its length depends on route knowledge and how thoroughly each labyrinth is explored.

Key takeaways

Keep these principles in mind before entering any of the Lomei Labyrinths.

  • Treat it as a multi-stage quest The surface, sky, and Depths areas are related parts of a larger challenge. Completing only the first maze does not represent the full progression.
  • Read the environment instead of forcing a route Acorns and other visible environmental markers can help identify a promising path through the maze. Openings, raised sections, and changes in the corridor layout are also useful orientation points.
  • Expect exploration more than combat The defining obstacle is finding and activating terminals within complex corridors. Prepare for navigation and vertical movement rather than approaching the quest as a conventional enemy-clearance mission.
  • Search the entrances for context Journals and Zonai slabs can appear near labyrinth entrances. Reading them adds narrative context before the maze’s later stages.
  • The reward is tied to completion The associated prophecy quests reward pieces of the Evil Spirit Armor set, making the full chain worthwhile for players pursuing unique armor and completion goals.

Lomei Labyrinth Deep Prophecy overview

Lomei Labyrinth Deep Prophecy is an exploration-focused quest that turns the Lomei Labyrinths into a connected challenge across Hyrule’s surface, sky, and Depths.

The quest is associated with the Lomei Labyrinth complexes found across The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. Rather than being a single compact objective, it is structured as a chain of maze challenges: Link explores a labyrinth on the surface, reaches its related sky area, activates terminals, and then follows the resulting progression into the Depths. The exact route differs by labyrinth, but the central task remains navigation through a large, confusing structure while using environmental clues to avoid repeatedly circling the same corridors.

Entrances and early exploration areas commonly contain journals or Zonai slabs. These pieces of environmental storytelling provide context for the prophecy and help establish that the labyrinths are designed as multi-stage trials rather than ordinary ruins. The mazes reward patient route-reading: landmarks, open courtyards, vertical gaps, and environmental markers such as acorns can be more useful than trying to memorize every turn.

The final stages take place below the surface and lead to valuable rewards connected to the Evil Spirit Armor set. The labyrinths also contain shrines, including Mogisari Shrine, Mayaotaki Shrine, and Motsusis Shrine, allowing exploration progress to overlap with shrine completion. Because the quest is optional and spread across several regions, it works best as a long-term objective rather than something approached as a linear story mission.

Requirements

There is no stated story-gate requirement in the supplied material. Practical preparation matters more than a specific quest item.

  • RequiredAccess to the labyrinth areasYou must be able to reach the relevant surface, sky, and Depths sections of the Lomei Labyrinths.
  • RecommendedA reliable way to navigate verticallyThe connected stages occupy different elevations, so climbing, gliding, and other normal traversal options are useful.
  • RecommendedHealing and survival suppliesThe Depths can be hazardous, and a failed traversal attempt can cost time even when the main threat is navigation rather than combat.
  • RecommendedPatience for route-findingThe mazes are intentionally complex. Marking landmarks and checking environmental clues is more dependable than rushing through the first available corridor.

Objectives

  1. Explore the Lomei Labyrinth stagesSearch the connected surface, sky, and Depths structures instead of treating the first accessible maze as the complete quest.
  2. Activate the terminalsThe terminals are the main progression devices inside the maze challenge. Finding them requires interpreting corridors and environmental markers.
  3. Read the available cluesInspect journals and Zonai slabs near entrances to obtain narrative context and clues before committing to the maze.
  4. Complete the associated shrine challengesMogisari Shrine, Mayaotaki Shrine, and Motsusis Shrine are among the shrines connected with the labyrinth areas.Optional
  5. Collect the Evil Spirit Armor rewardsCompleting the relevant prophecy stages awards pieces of the Evil Spirit Armor set.

Walkthrough

  1. 01

    Reach a labyrinth entrance

    Locate a Lomei Labyrinth entrance

    Begin at one of the Lomei Labyrinth complexes on the surface and identify the entrance structure before entering the maze. The three-dimensional layout is easier to understand when you first establish which side of the outer wall you came from.

    Location: Surface Lomei Labyrinth

    TipUse the map and nearby landmarks to create a clear return point before entering.

  2. 02

    Investigate the available records

    Inspect the entrance clues

    Search the entrance area for a journal or Zonai slab and read it before moving deeper into the corridors. These clues provide narrative context and may suggest how the prophecy’s stages are connected.

    Location: Lomei Labyrinth entrance

  3. 03

    Navigate the surface labyrinth

    Map the surface corridors

    Move through the surface maze methodically, checking side passages rather than assuming the widest corridor is the correct route. Acorns and other environmental markers can help distinguish a useful path from a loop.

    Location: Surface maze

    Watch outRushing through repeated-looking corridors makes it easy to lose your orientation and retrace the same section.

  4. 04

    Activate the terminals

    Activate the surface terminals

    Search the accessible branches for the terminals and activate each one required by the stage. If a route appears blocked, look for another corridor, opening, or change in elevation instead of treating the obstruction as the end of the path.

    Location: Surface maze

  5. 05

    Reach the connected sky area

    Continue to the sky stage

    Once the surface portion points you onward, use the available traversal route to reach the related sky labyrinth. The elevated stage changes the importance of vertical movement, so look above and below the current corridor rather than relying only on ground-level turns.

    Location: Sky Lomei Labyrinth

    TipKeep the surface and sky maps conceptually separate; their walls and corridors can look similar while their elevation changes the route.

  6. 06

    Activate the sky-stage terminals

    Complete the sky terminals

    Explore the sky labyrinth’s corridors and platforms until you have activated the required terminals there. Environmental markers remain valuable, but open air and vertical gaps can make a seemingly direct route misleading.

    Location: Sky Lomei Labyrinth

  7. 07

    Enter the Deep stage

    Descend into the Depths

    Follow the progression into the Depths section associated with the labyrinth. Underground navigation can be less forgiving, so pause at recognizable landmarks and avoid leaving the area before confirming that the stage has advanced.

    Location: Depths beneath the Lomei Labyrinth

    Checkpoint
  8. 08

    Complete the Depths stage

    Finish the Deep prophecy challenge

    Complete the remaining terminal-based maze objective in the Depths and investigate the reward area after the stage is resolved. This final section is the part most directly associated with the quest’s armor reward.

    Location: Lomei Labyrinth Depths

    Watch outDo not assume the quest is complete when the surface or sky terminals are finished; the connected Depths stage is part of the full challenge.

Mission mechanics

The Lomei challenge is built around navigation rather than a conventional sequence of enemy encounters. Large maze walls create loops and false leads, while terminal activation provides the progression language shared by the different stages. The most effective approach is to treat each visible landmark as an anchor: remember whether it was reached from an outer wall, an open courtyard, a vertical gap, or a side passage.

Environmental markers are especially important because the maze can make adjacent corridors look alike. Acorns are called out as useful route indicators, but they should be combined with map awareness rather than followed blindly. If the route stops making sense, backtrack to the last known landmark and test an unexplored branch instead of repeatedly pushing forward.

The sky and Depths layers expand the challenge beyond a flat maze. Changes in elevation mean that a blocked-looking route may require looking for a climb, glide, descent, or alternate entrance. This layered structure is what distinguishes the Tears of the Kingdom version of the Lomei Labyrinths from a single self-contained corridor puzzle.

What works and what does not

Strengths

  • The surface, sky, and Depths layers give the quest a strong sense of scale.
  • Environmental markers provide an in-world alternative to relying entirely on an external walkthrough.
  • Journals and Zonai slabs add context to what could otherwise be a purely navigational challenge.
  • The Evil Spirit Armor rewards give the long exploration chain a clear completion goal.

Weaknesses

  • Similar-looking corridors can make progress difficult to track without deliberate landmarking.
  • The quest is spread across multiple regions, so it is less convenient to complete in one uninterrupted trip.
  • The supplied material does not identify a single universal route that works for every labyrinth stage.
  • Players seeking only combat encounters may find the terminal search and maze traversal slow.

Best uses

  • Pair the quest with shrine exploration in the same labyrinth area.
  • Use it as a long-term exploration objective while travelling through Hyrule.
  • Mark entrances and recognizable maze features when beginning each stage.

Encounter phases

  1. 1

    Surface navigation

    Starts: Entering a surface Lomei Labyrinth

    Not applicable

    The opening phase is a maze-navigation challenge. Link searches corridors for the terminals while using environmental markers and structural landmarks to maintain his bearing.

    • Read the entrance material before committing to the maze.
    • Use acorns and visible landmarks to distinguish progress from backtracking.
  2. 2

    Sky traversal

    Starts: Completing or advancing beyond the surface stage

    Not applicable

    The quest expands into the sky, where platforms, open gaps, and elevation changes alter how the maze is read. Route-finding depends on both horizontal corridors and vertical movement.

    • Look for routes above and below apparent dead ends.
    • Keep track of which sky platforms connect back to the main maze.
  3. 3

    Depths completion

    Starts: Reaching the underground labyrinth stage

    Not applicable

    The final exploration phase takes place in the Depths and concludes the connected prophecy challenge. Search carefully for the remaining progression points before leaving the area.

    • Confirm that the stage has advanced before travelling away.
    • Prepare healing and survival supplies for underground exploration.

Completion checklist

  • Find and inspect the entrance journal or Zonai slabThese records provide context for the prophecy.
  • Explore the surface labyrinthDo not stop after locating the first progression point.
  • Activate the required surface terminalsUse environmental markers to reduce backtracking.
  • Reach the related sky labyrinthThe quest continues beyond the surface structure.
  • Activate the sky-stage terminalsVertical routes and open gaps are part of the challenge.
  • Enter the associated Depths areaThe Deep stage is part of the full prophecy progression.
  • Complete the Depths terminal challengeThis leads toward the quest reward.
  • Complete any nearby shrineMogisari Shrine, Mayaotaki Shrine, and Motsusis Shrine are associated with the labyrinth areas.Optional

Failure conditions

  • Losing your routeThe most common practical failure is becoming turned around in similar corridors. Return to a remembered landmark and use environmental markers to re-establish direction.
  • Leaving before completing the stageTravelling away after only part of the terminal objective is complete can make it seem as though the quest has stalled. Confirm that the current stage has advanced before moving on.
  • Running short of survival supplies in the DepthsUnderground exploration can be hazardous even when navigation is the central challenge. Carry enough healing and other preparation to avoid an unnecessary retreat.

On failure

The supplied material does not document a unique permanent-failure state for this quest. The listed risks are navigation and preparation problems rather than irreversible quest failures.
