- After the heart is destroyed, drop through the portal and then head back left. Keep going left past the entrance and work your way through this section to the creep heart, the section is linear so there's only one way through.

- After the heart is dead a new entrance will be open below it, go through and go to the right back to the entrance. Stand on the little platform to the left and above the entrance and then you can launch to get through the portal.

Head left, launching over the gap, and then traverse this tricky area with a couple of lasers. Drop down the portal to start the willow stone fight. Starting the fight gives you full hp/energy to ignore the plants/crystals before the fight. During the fight, stand still and just spam bow, while dodging the laser and it should die in like 10 seconds. (Heart 6)

- Head down and left and through the spinning laser room, in the top left of that room is a creep heart, destroy it. (Heart 7)
- After the heart is dead, go through the portal in the middle bottom of the spinning laser room to go to the last heart. Use launch or bash the mantis to get into the middle of the first wheel, dodging the lasers.
- Exit the wheel when you can and take the teleporter into the next room, this room has an air draft, so you can use glide to navigate going through the wheel and and go through the portal in the top left of the room.
- The last room also has an air draft, go left past the 2 lasers and use glide to float waiting for the giant wheel. Once it opens up, go inside and head to the right to play it safe, where there is a ledge. After the next cycle, go back inside the wheel and go to the top left and out. Launch up and destroy the last heart (Heart 8).
- After the cutscene plays, go to the right and destroy the breakable wall, go through the new portal and then go to the right. On the very right side there will be a portal in the ceiling, launch through that portal. We will be back in the spinning wheel room, head right out of that room and then through the portal on the left wall above the gorlek.
- Exit the portal and then go down and to the left and exit through the now open exit.
- If you want to get godmode for the shriek fight, go left and activate the spirit well, then teleport to right Luma pools spirit well and do the god mode glitch by going left in the water and baiting a missile from below. Afterwards teleport back to this spirit well.
- Afterwards, head up to the top right, using launch resets from walls/floors and launch towards the shriek cutscene to skip out of some of the forced walking. As soon as ori stops you can use the menu to Skip Cutscene and get into the Shriek Fight.
- Complete the Shriek Fight
- After the shriek death cutscene, hold right in the crawl sequence! If you are using patch 3 you need to mash jump to stand up at the start of the crawl sequence. Once ori reaches seir, gg :)
