Shimmering wall

A shimmering wall is the means by which Chozo Lore is recorded in Metroid Prime. They are carvings on walls with elaborate Chozo markings. Most shimmering walls are located in the Chozo Ruins, though some others are found in the Artifact Temple and Phendrana Drifts. The walls project rippling energy signifying they contain Chozo Lore. How the energy is projected is unknown. After scanning the Lore, the rippling stops. The Lore can still be re-scanned, however.
Most of these shimmering walls are similar to the artwork from which Bryyo Data is obtained in Metroid Prime 3: Corruption, in that the walls on which they are scanned stand out by rippling flame with a design (language writing or artwork) on it; when scanned, the rippling stops. However, Chozo Lore can still be scanned again after that, but the Bryyo Data (with one exception) cannot.
