Head south through the Walk of Sky area to reach Walk of Mind. Save your game, then continue south and enter the shrine. Go to the middle of the room to find "Pedestal of the Dawn." Locate the Dawn Shard in your menu and equip it to the party leader, then examine the switch. Choose the second option to activate the pedestal and warp to the Ward of Velitation. Remove the Dawn Shard when you arrive.
Go to the west, defeating enemies along the way. Enter the Walk of Torn Illusion area and ascend the stairs. Run around to the other side of the floor to find another "Pedestal of the Dawn." Equip the Dawn Shard on the party leader and touch the pedestal. Go back to the previous area.
Take the stairs and exit to the east to reach Walk of Revelation. The green crystal in this room will attack your party. Defeat it, and it will transform into a Save Crystal. Save your game and exit to the west through the middle.
Enter Ward of the Sword-King and follow the path to the south. Examine the "Sword of Judgment" to unlock the northern door. Go into this room and examine the orange Way Stone to transport to Ward of Measure. Head down the western stairs and examine the door. Choose the second option to advance. Emerge in the next room and take the western exit to Walk of Prescience.
Go through the uppermost of the three passages to the west to find the "Stone Brave" statue. Turn it once counterclockwise so that it faces east. The eyes will glow when the statue is in the correct position.
Take the southern stairs to the next room. Proceed through the two doors you encounter and locate another "Stone Brave" at the south end of the room. Turn it once counterclockwise so that it faces north. Exit to the north.
Return outside and save if you wish, then come back and take the eastern exit. Head down the stairs and open the door for a boss fight with Vinuskar. Cast Slow and Blind on him. Use Haste and Esuna to remove any negative status ailments from your party. Continue attacking until he falls.
Continue east to locate the third "Stone Brave." Turn it once counterclockwise so that it faces west. Search the area nearby to find an urn containing a map of the shrine. Return to the previous room, then go north. Save your game if you like, then use the yellow Way Stone. Head south when you arrive, passing beneath the giant blade. Examine the southern door and pick the second option to proceed and trigger a boss battle with Mateus.
Prepare for the battle by equipping the Nishijin Belt and Ice Shield. Increase your thunder damage by using the Storm Spear and Storm Staff if you have them. Cast Protect, Shell and Haste on the party. Keep these active for the entire battle. During the fight, watch out for Sap and Sleep on your characters, and consider casting Berserk on a party member to increase physical damage. Continue your offensive assault until Mateus falls.
Head south after the battle to trigger an event. You will receive the Sword of Kings key item and the Sword of Kings weapon. Go outside to complete the Stilshrine of Miriam.
