What is a Sanctum
Each Sanctum is a self-contained puzzle shrine. The player redirects beams of light using mirrors, lenses, or targeted abilities until the central sanctuary relights. No combat is required inside a sanctum.
Planning Tips
Most Sanctums are marked as points of interest once you step near them. Blinding Flash reveals Sanctum locations at range.
Sanctums can be completed in any order and at any time in the playthrough.
Bring lanterns or light sources when the Sanctum is indoors or at night; some puzzles rely on ambient light.

Additional Details
Requirement
Lightbringer is awarded for cleansing every Sanctum in the game. The Sanctum count tracked by the journal sits at 16, listed under The Forgotten Sun tab.
Trophy Tier
On PlayStation, Lightbringer is a Silver trophy. The Xbox achievement equivalent uses the same unlock condition.
Prerequisites
Sanctums are gated behind Chapter 5, since clearing them requires the Abyss Gear ability granted by Elowen, the Witch of Wisdom. The puzzle and combat components of each sanctum are unavailable before that gating.
Tip For The Final Sanctum
A common piece of routing advice is to save the Sanctum of Mortification for Chapter 9. If every other sanctum is already cleared, Lightbringer triggers the moment Chapter 9 ends.
