In Zelda Tears of the Kingdom, you can unlock the Joniu Shrine by completing The Ralis Channel Crystal. You’ll also receive Raruru’s Blessing and a Large Zonai Charge for doing so. The Ralis Channel Crystal may not have the most complex puzzle, but it can be more difficult than many other Shrine Quests in TotK. Let’s break down the walkthrough.
To unlock this mission, you must go to Ralis Channel. To get here easily, you can glide from Upland Zorana Skyview Tower to Ralis Pond. You will easily see the entrance to this cave when you reach Ralis Pond. After entering the cave, jump through the gap and glide down with the help of your Paraglider. Land next to the puddle below and you will see a few Zonai Devices consisting of Wooden Plates, Fans, a Control Panel, and a Green Crystal. When you go down and touch this Green Crystal, you will start the Ralis Channel Crystal quest.
To get the Large Zonai Charge in TotK, you need to bring this Green Crystal to its place. This Crystal emits a green laser light to show you where it should go. It will show you the other side of the puddle when you interact with it. You need to build a boat with other materials on the ground and take Crystal to the other side.
Connect 2 Fans to the back of a piece of wood and put the Control Panel in the center. If you can’t see the Control Panel, make sure you take a good look behind the stone. Finally, attach the Green Crystal to the boat and head to the opposite side.
When you place the Green Crystal near the Shrine you will receive Raruru’s Blessing. When you receive this blessing, you will be teleported to a small area with only one chest in front of you. You will find your Large Zonai Charge inside this chest. After you get the Chest, you can go to the exit of the Shrine. This will complete the Ralis Channel Crystal and unlock the Joniu Shrine in TotK.
