The Tena Ko'sah Shrine,[1] designated by the Trial name A Major Test of Strength,[1] is an Ancient Shrine in Breath of the Wild.

Entrance to the Shrine[]

The Tena Ko'sah Shrine is located among the Ancient Columns on the Tabantha Frontier. As Link enters the Ancient Shrine, he's greeted by its Monk, Tena Ko'sah.[2]

Themes and Navigation[]

The Tena Ko'sah Shrine is like any other "Major Test of Strength", with a large rectangular room with many destructible pillars in rows. When Link enters the room, a Guardian Scout IV will rise from below. It must be defeated in order to complete the trial.

Once the Scout is defeated, the portcullis at the back of the room rises, allowing Link to access Tena Ko'sah. He grants Link a Spirit Orb for overcoming the trial,[3] and wishes him well before fading away.[4]

Behind the portcullis, there is a Treasure Chest containing a Knight's Halberd.
