Breaking the Shrine/HL

To avoid frustration or confusion, we recommend getting familiar with the Expert Mode first. Further more, in-depth knowledge of Gameplay Basics is assumed at Expert Mode articles.

The range in difficulty in Expert Mode is wide. Some of the described things in Expert Mode
* need to be “studied” to be able to accomplish them. Several tries might be needed and then it still might not work.
* Are complicated Glitches and it took the community years to find them out.
* Could be found out by yourself or through a Companions showing it to you. By reading this you might spoil yourself a nice surprise.
* Are missing a detailed description. Investigation on how they work is needed, your help is highly welcomed.

"Theres a small cube surrounding every shrine that keeps the shrine active. You can activate the shrine and leave this cube and depending on the timing you can get 2 results.
1. Shrine is lit, portal is invisible but still active, so you can still enter the invisible circle and begin the cutscene. The benefit of this is you can keep the shrine active while you're outside of the cube. You can set up certain tricks like pulling a carpet into PD HL, or you can activate the shrine early in UG to set up a WM attack at the shrine, or set up the active shrine to pull the ancestors into tower HL

2. Portal is lit but inactive

The main benefit of breaking the shrine (activating the light after watching the HL) is it prevents connecting with a companion for the current level, in case you want to explore or practice Fancy flying solo. This should be verified for PC.

At the discord in glitching channel at that date are some images too (Rebi told me its ok to take his images and help for the wiki <3)

### What is it?

Short description of the glitch, if possible a short video of the "end product", if a complicated glitch.

### How and where to do it

In every level with a Shrine, glitches and tricks are possible.

There was a talk on the fan discord about "zen jumping and falling down somewhere. Being teleported, stuck or glitching the History Lesson as result. https://discord.com/channels/295204028881698816/379977298373246978/941460550435606578.

### Chapter Select

#### Zen jump in CS shrine light circle: random teleport

Nathanj added "i never had it in Tower though" - Knock-knock-joke: "It seems Tower is just too high for a Wayfarer"/to teleport up again.

### Tower

#### Interrupt The History Lesson In Tower

Need to know how to Zen Jump and dry climb the Tower. Its advised to avoid building the cloth bridges, as they may keep you from falling down.

The goal is to Zen Jump into the light circle, thus being pushed out, HIstory Lesson is still started, falling down the Tower. The History Lesson will be interrupted, you get to see yourself at the bottom of the Tower for some seconds.

This glitch is also possible in red: https://youtu.be/tyT\_4HWDz8c

##### Failed "interrupting Tower HL" Information

 “
*I didn't think it was possible to actually break Journey I was trying Ten's trick with glitched Tower HL, but failed, and Wayfarer got stuck at the foot of the Tower and HL couldn't start.*

*I completely lost control over the traveler and could only turn the camera, only restarting the level helped.*

Broadly speaking, a **glitch** is where something in the game does something it wasn't meant to. We do not distinguish between a "wanted Glitch" and actual bugs.
