  • Rotate statues to face the center; the opposite statue mirrors each move.
  • Order: right-hand statue first, then left-hand statue.
  • Center each statue before releasing so it snaps into place.
  • Reward: Abyss Artifact + fast travel point.

How Do You Solve the Sunrise Plains Puzzle?

  1. Right statue. Rotate the right-hand statue inward — it takes a moment to turn, and the statue directly opposite rotates with it.

The four statues stand on rotating circular platforms — turn the right-hand statue inward (its opposite mirrors the rotation), then do the same for the left-hand statue until all four face the center.
2. **Left statue.** Rotate the **left-hand statue inward** too; again the opposite statue mirrors the movement. 3. **Snap into place.** Make sure each statue is **centered** before releasing so it snaps in — once all four face the center, the puzzle completes. 4. **Claim it.** Take the **Abyss Cresset** for your artifact and a new fast travel point.

FAQ

Where is the Sunrise Plains puzzle?

In the Grace Estate, south of Hernand, at the ancient-ruins site with four large statues.

How does the statue rotation work?

It’s linked — rotating one statue rotates the one directly opposite at the same time. Turn the right statue, then the left, both facing center.

Why won’t the puzzle complete?

The statues must be centered (facing directly inward) before releasing so they snap into place. Nudge until they lock.
