Shae Katha Shrine location
Once you have completed the Serpent’s Jaw quest in Zelda Breath of the Wild, you can find the shrine by heading to the location on the map below.
The Shae Katha shrine in Breath of the Wild is part of the Serpent’s Jaw shrine quest and it is a pretty long quest that has players traveling a lot, through dangerous areas where lightning is a big hazard.
This is why any protection against lightning, such as Rubber Tights, is beneficial when attempting this Shrine. For this purpose, consider exploring the Qukah Natah Shrine beforehand.
To start the journey, players first need to find Kass, the accordion-playing NPC. He is located to the east of the Lake Tower in Zelda Breath of the Wild as you follow the pathway through Faron Forest.
Kass will, as usual, play his song that contains hints regarding the shrine. The Serpent’s Jaws shrine quest starts from here.
Zelda Breath of the Wild Shae Katha shrine walkthrough
Once players have the Serpent’s Jaw quest, they need to proceed north-northeast of where they met Kaas towards the river Dracozu, which looks like a dragon flowing through Damel Forest.
Following the river, you will reach Lake Dracozu where you will encounter some enemies guarding a statue at the Spring of Courage. Do consider keeping lightning protection with you on this journey, as it will be really helpful for combating the lightning attacks of the upcoming dragon in Zelda BOTW.
After the enemies are dead, you can pray at the statue for the next clue to the quest which talks about finding Farosh’s scale.
To get your hands on Farosh’s Scale, you will need to travel southeast of the Spring of Courage and the best way forward is by climbing up the mountain to the east of Lake Dracozu since this path also contains numerous gems, which you can pick up.
Having crossed the mountain, you will find Farosh the Dragon every night near Floria Bridge, between 9.30 pm and 1 am as he appears from Floria Falls and heads towards the bridge.
There is always a circle of lightning around Farosh in Zelda Breath of the Wild, so engaging him will be tough. For that, you should unequip anything metal and put on items like rubber tights.
When Farosh flies past the bridge, players can simply shoot his body with an arrow. It will cause a Farosh Scale to drop nearby, which can be picked up and returned to the Spring of Courage.
Once you are at the Spring of Courage, you just need to drop the scale in the water and open the entrance to the Shae Katha shrine in Zelda BOTW.
There is no puzzle to solve or enemies to fight within the shrine. Completing the Serpent’s Jaw quest basically completes the Shae Katha shrine in Zelda BOTW and you can simply pick up your reward. Once the shrine is open, head inside and collect the Thunderspear and Spirit Orb.
