Key takeawaysSpoilers

Treat the quest as a connected route rather than three unrelated activities.

  • Three-part structure The challenge spans the Surface, Sky, and Depths, so finishing one section leads into the next stage of the same labyrinth sequence.
  • Two shrine landmarks The upper sections contain Motsusis Shrine in the Surface labyrinth and Siyamotsus Shrine on the South Lomei Castle Top Floor.
  • Final combat test The South Lomei Depths Labyrinth ends with a battle against Flux Construct III.
  • Main reward Completing the prophecy awards the Evil Spirit Mask.

South Lomei Labyrinth Prophecy overviewSpoilers

South Lomei Labyrinth Prophecy is a side quest built around one continuous labyrinth challenge spread across the Gerudo region’s surface, sky, and Depths.

The quest takes place at the South Lomei Labyrinth, toward the southeastern edge of the Gerudo Desert. Rather than treating the ruins as a single enclosed maze, the challenge is divided among three connected sections: the South Lomei Labyrinth on the Surface, the South Lomei Castle Top Floor in the Sky, and the South Lomei Depths Labyrinth below. Progress through the upper sections is required before the final encounter becomes the focus of the prophecy.

The Surface section introduces the labyrinth’s maze-like exploration and contains the Motsusis Shrine. Once the Surface portion has been handled, the route continues upward to the South Lomei Castle Top Floor, where the Siyamotsus Shrine provides the Sky section’s shrine challenge. These shrines are important landmarks during the quest because they identify the two upper portions of the multi-level route.

The final stage requires descending into the South Lomei Depths Labyrinth. There, Link must defeat Flux Construct III to complete the prophecy. The principal reward for finishing the entire challenge is the Evil Spirit Mask, making this quest especially relevant to players pursuing the reward associated with the Lomei labyrinth sequence.

WalkthroughSpoilers

  1. 01

    Reach the South Lomei Labyrinth

    Travel to the southeastern Gerudo Desert

    Begin at the South Lomei Labyrinth in the Gerudo region, toward the southeastern edge of the Gerudo Desert. The ruins are the starting point for the Surface section, so use the labyrinth itself as the route’s first landmark rather than searching for the Sky or Depths entrance immediately.

    Location: Gerudo region, southeastern edge of the Gerudo Desert

    TipMark the labyrinth on the map before entering so the later ascent and descent remain easy to track.

  2. 02

    Navigate the Surface section

    Enter and map the Surface labyrinth

    Explore the South Lomei Labyrinth’s Surface corridors and look for the route through the maze rather than assuming the first visible passage is the intended way forward. The Surface section is the first of the three connected areas and contains Motsusis Shrine, which serves as a useful progress landmark.

    Location: South Lomei Labyrinth

    Watch outThe maze’s walls and dead ends can make backtracking confusing; keep track of junctions and avoid leaving before confirming that the Surface stage is complete.

  3. 03

    Locate Motsusis Shrine

    Reach Motsusis Shrine

    Continue through the Surface section until you reach Motsusis Shrine. Activating the shrine gives you a fast-travel point and confirms that you have reached the named shrine associated with the Surface portion of the prophecy.

    Location: South Lomei Labyrinth

    Checkpoint
  4. 04

    Reach the Sky section

    Continue upward to the Sky section

    After the Surface portion, follow the available route upward toward the South Lomei Castle Top Floor. The Sky area is not a separate unrelated destination: it is the next level of the same labyrinth challenge and must be explored before the final Depths stage.

    Location: South Lomei Castle Top Floor

    TipUse the Surface shrine as a return point if you need to leave and replenish supplies before continuing.

  5. 05

    Navigate the Sky section

    Explore South Lomei Castle Top Floor

    Navigate the Sky labyrinth’s open-top-floor layout and search for its shrine landmark. The Sky section contains Siyamotsus Shrine, and reaching it is the clearest way to confirm that the second upper section has been found.

    Location: South Lomei Castle Top Floor

  6. 06

    Locate Siyamotsus Shrine

    Reach Siyamotsus Shrine

    Work through the Sky section until you arrive at Siyamotsus Shrine. Activate it before proceeding so the area has a fast-travel point and the shrine’s location is secured while you prepare for the descent into the Depths.

    Location: South Lomei Castle Top Floor

    Checkpoint
  7. 07

    Enter the Depths section

    Descend into the Depths

    Once the Surface and Sky sections have been completed, proceed downward into the South Lomei Depths Labyrinth. The Depths are the final level of the prophecy and shift the challenge from maze exploration toward the boss encounter that completes the quest.

    Location: South Lomei Depths Labyrinth

    Watch outDo not treat the Depths entrance as the end of the quest; the prophecy is not complete until the boss in this section is defeated.

  8. 08

    Prepare for the final encounter

    Prepare for Flux Construct III

    Before committing to the final encounter, organize your weapons, healing items, and movement options. Flux Construct III is the named boss of the South Lomei Depths Labyrinth, so give yourself room to observe its attack patterns instead of rushing directly into its body.

    Location: South Lomei Depths Labyrinth

    TipKeep a clear view of the construct and look for the vulnerable component during its attack recovery windows.

  9. 09

    Defeat Flux Construct III

    Defeat Flux Construct III

    Engage Flux Construct III in the Depths and focus on surviving its large sweeping attacks while looking for opportunities to strike its vulnerable component. Avoid standing directly beneath the construct when it changes form, and use the arena’s space to create safer angles for repeated attacks.

    Location: South Lomei Depths Labyrinth

    Watch outThe boss fight is the quest’s required combat finish; being defeated sends you back to a previous save or checkpoint rather than completing the prophecy.

  10. 10

    Obtain the Evil Spirit Mask

    Complete the prophecy and collect the reward

    After Flux Construct III is defeated, finish the resulting quest interaction and collect the Evil Spirit Mask. This reward marks the completion of the multi-level South Lomei challenge and is the primary prize for clearing the Surface, Sky, and Depths route.

Mission mechanics

The central mechanic is vertical progression. The quest is not limited to the visible Surface maze: it connects a Surface labyrinth, a Sky labyrinth on the South Lomei Castle Top Floor, and a Depths labyrinth beneath the region. This makes map awareness particularly important, because the three locations are related but require different approaches to exploration.

Shrines provide practical navigation anchors. Motsusis Shrine belongs to the Surface section, while Siyamotsus Shrine belongs to the Sky section. Activating both before the final descent is useful because it preserves fast-travel access and separates the exploration stages from the final combat stage.

The last section changes the task from route-finding to target identification and arena survival. Flux Construct III is a large construct boss, so the safest general approach is to watch its form and attack tells, create distance when it begins a broad movement, and strike the vulnerable component when an opening appears. The exact combat outcome depends on Link’s equipment and player execution.

What works and what does not

Strengths

  • The three-level structure gives the quest a clear sense of escalation from maze exploration to a boss battle.
  • Motsusis Shrine and Siyamotsus Shrine provide useful landmarks and fast-travel points during the route.
  • The final reward gives the labyrinth challenge a distinct completion goal rather than ending after the first maze.

Weaknesses

  • The route can be difficult to follow because the Surface, Sky, and Depths sections are separated vertically.
  • The upper sections emphasize navigation, so players who expect a direct combat mission may find the progress less obvious.
  • The final battle can punish players who enter without healing supplies or a plan for recognizing the construct’s vulnerable component.

Best uses

  • Approach the quest as a staged exploration objective and activate each upper-section shrine before descending.
  • Use the quest as a destination guide for the South Lomei Labyrinth complex and its associated reward.
