The Kayra Mah Shrine,[1] also known as The Secret of The Hero and designated by the Trial name Greedy Hill,[2][1] is an Ancient Shrine in Breath of the Wild.

Entrance to the Shrine
The Kayra Mah Shrine is located within Gorko Tunnel in the Eldin region, however, it is initially blocked by a rubble of stones. The Tunnel is being excavated by Gonguron, as it is believed to be the location of the "Secret of the Hero".[3] Gonguron's brother, Bladon, is upset with his absence, and speaking with him initiates the Shrine Quest "A Brother's Roast".[4]
Upon finding Gonguron, it is discovered that he has ran out of energy to keep digging.[5] Bladon, who arrives shortly after, then sends Link to find and bring a Rock Roast from Gortram Cliff.[6]
After Bladon cooks the Rock Roast and Gonguron eats it, he regains the strength to keep digging, and it is revealed that the "Secret of the Hero" is in fact the Ancient Shrine.[7] As Link enters the Shrine, he is greeted by the Shrine's Monk, Kayra Mah.[8]
The Kayra Mah Shrine features a steep upward incline. The incline is sectioned by gapped fences along its center, creating three paths upward. At the very top of the incline awaits the Monk Kayra Mah.
Upon approaching the incline, a series of traps are triggered in which iron Boulders and Spiked Boulders come rolling down toward Link. Among the rolling hazards are also Rupees of various amounts. These Rupees are meant to serve as bait, as they are shortly followed by the hazards. Link can avoid the hazards simply by evading them, but can also use the Stasis Rune to freeze one if in a pinch. Eventually all of the traps will be released, leaving no more left as they collect at the bottom, and making for a safe climb the rest of the way. Link can go back to the bottom as well to collect any Rupees that he had missed.
Along the walls of the Shrine are two Treasure Chests, one on a platform and another in an alcove in the wall. These Chests can be reached by gliding to them using the Paraglider from a higher elevation. The Chests collectively contain five Bomb Arrows and a Ruby.
At the very top of the incline is Kayra Mah, who will present Link a Spirit Orb for completing the Trial,[9] and will wish Link well before fading away.[10]
