Guide to Map Pieces / Shrines
By MagicaJaphet
What Are Map Pieces?
What’s going on with this new update?
0.19.0 introduced a new mechanic of smaller shrines that the player can unlock by individually finding all the map pieces to complete a greater map of the entire sky world. These maps are most useful to finding missing winged light/spirits, but can also be a fun challenge to find all the pieces.
A visual of what the tiny shrines look like (they all have 4 candles in front of them to light):
