Hi Kimmeris,
Here is a guide for getting all the way from Sonte's cave to the Cyclone shrine:
Hope this helps!
The Shrine of Twisting Wind
Sonté’s Cave
You should leave the cave and head all the way back to The Falls. From here head North into the Summerfalls Ravine.
Summerfalls Ravine
As soon as you enter the Ravine, swim under the water and collect the Melodia Idol down here. Emerge from the water and use the mushrooms to get to the higher ground. Up here, to the left of the Beacon is the path you need to take. If you need to, burn down the wooden gate and head through here.
Summerfalls Pass
Dive under the water and collect the Melodia Idol. Head to the left and leave the water. Jump onto the platform to the right and use the torch to burn the sapling. This will create a Seed. Carry to the Seed over to the left and plant in it in the earth on the small platform. This will create another Sapling.
Water the sapling using a Slipstream and it will grow into a Poyak. Use the Poyak to reach the ledge with the lever on it. Pull the lever to open a door under the water. Go down here and collect the Melodia Idol from behind the door.
Emerge from the water on the left. There are a couple of Fire Glorbs here. Gust them into the water, before pulling the nearby lever. This will open a door behind the waterfall above. Go back to the start of the area and use Sonté’s Shrine to make it Winter. Break the frozen waterfall with the nearby torch and leave to the left.
Mountain Pass
Use the nearby Melodia Statue to save your game. Take the upper route, since there's a crystal door in your way on the lower. Watch out for the Water Glorbs and exit to the left.
Chilling Cave
Zigzag over Toku to make an easy landing. At the bottom of the cliff is a Melodia Idol. Light to torch to the left with the one to the right. Watch out for the Scorpio here. You can burn it up with fire. Light the next torch and use the flames to take out the Water Glorbs.
Once you have done this, use a Slipstream to hit the wooden gate with flames. Now that this is gone, move past it. Up here, go to the left. Stand on the switch and a Rock will drop from above. Take the Rock over to the right hand side of the screen, over the platforms.
You will come to a switch with an ice barrier next to it. Break the barrier with the Rock, then head through. Use the mushroom to reach the raised ledge. Here you will see another Rock behind a shut door. Use Gust to move the Rock over the top of the tall platform here.
Now that you have the Rock, place it on the switch below. This is will open the nearby door. Go through the door and use the mushroom to gain height. To the right you will see a Beacon. Fire it up then light the torch to the left. As soon as you are finished, your work in this section is done.
Go back down to the ground and taking the Rock with you, head over to the left. Place the Rock on the switch here and use the mushroom to move upwards. Deal with the Water Glorbs and continue to the right.
You will come to an unlit torch and the camera will pan out. You should be able to see the torch that you lit on the other side. Use a Slipstream to move fire through the narrow gap in the wall. You will now have a torch lit on this side of the wall.
Light the next torch and from here destroy the wooden barrier. Use the mushroom to get up to the next level. Here you will find a Journal Page. Proceed to the left and just as you come to the bridge, a Garb will appear. The Garb is a lot of Glorbs merged together into a Super-Glorb. Create a snowball and throw it at the Garb. Repeat this until it explodes. Hitting it on the head or from behind seems to work best.
Once the Garb (and Glorbs) are gone, head over the bridges and leave the screen to the right.
The Shrine of Twisted Wind
Drop down to the right and stand on the switch in front of the Shrine. A propeller-type-thing will appear. Gust to make it spin around. With this you will be granted the Cyclone wind power. This is a very useful power.
Use your new Cyclone power to move up the ledges on the right. Up here is a Melodia Idol. Pull the nearby switch to open the door on the right. Hit the Melodia Statue before leaving.
