Newly equipped with horses, the party made great time on their way back to the Great Plateau. They knew the climb was going to be strenuous, so they had Lah Rudania summon a rope, then sent Grik up ahead of the rest of the group to tie it off at the top. Once there, though, Grik saw several bokoblins and a moblin, and was forced to Vanish into a hiding place.

The sound of the bokoblins' alert warned the rest of the group that they needed to hurry, so even though Grik wasn't able to tie the rope off well, they began the climb anyway. Eventually the bokoblins were able to find Grik, but he fought them off long enough for the rest of the group to arrive, and thanks to some mighty Din's Fire by Ignatius, the party was victorious.

They then went to find the Sheikah Tower, and though they struggled to activate it at first, managed to get it up and running, and to have Lah Rudania sync with it - if he could ever figure out how to get his teleportation rune running again, they would be able to skip the long climb back.

Finally, they sought the Shrine of Resurrection, but found it locked tight, and felt certain that opening it now would only be detrimental to its occupant.

With nothing left to do on the Plateau, they climbed down - another exhausting affair, especially for Ignatius - and prepared to make their way either to Vah Rudania, or perhaps the Lost Woods.
