Constellation

Isle of Dawn, often shortened to Isle, is a cool-toned desolate desert with scattered traces of civilization. It is the first Realm the player can enter. The main part Isle of Dawn is one large map with no loading screens (excluding the side areas, such as Cave of Prophecies and Passage Stone). In addition, Isle does not have a Social Space; its spawn point only holds the Spirit Tombstones of the base-game Isle of Dawn Spirits.

Isle of Dawn holds 3 Regular Spirits and 12 Seasonal Spirits. Locations of all available Children of Light can be found on the Children of Light page.

Basic Expression Menu Icons[]

Four of the Expressions in the game do not require collection and are already available by default.

Flame: Allows the player to pull out a candle in order to light an object or another player.
Basic Call (Sky Kid Call): The sound your character makes when you tap on your avatar or press the appropriate 'Call' bind on controller. Other Calls can be collected throughout the game.
Sit: The sitting action is a basic interaction that the player does in various places in the game. Tapping the Sit icon two and three times changes the position of the character from kneeling, sitting, and lying down (and pose according to the stance chosen).
Basic Stance (Standing): Stances affect how your character stands. Each one also changes the sitting styles.
Request a Guide: Allows the player to ask other players for help to find Ancestor Spirits. Players can manually request help from others, although other players may refuse your request.

Mural Cave[]

The Mural Cave is a small tunnel inside a hill near the start of Isle. Inside, several bunches of white candles can be found, and lighting them will reveal Murals on the walls of the tunnel. Jumping down from the cliff at the tunnel's exit will lead you to the Sand Dunes.

This area holds a single Child of Light.

Sand Dunes[]

The Sand Dunes is a barren desert littered with stone monuments and traces of ancient civilization. It makes up the majority of Isle of Dawn and serves as the main tutorial where the player learns the basic mechanics of Sky. The Sand Dunes hold a multitude of hidden secret areas with collectibles.

Off towards the left shore, there is a secluded tunnel with a linear path leading to a room with a miniature boat holding three Lightseeker Lights. In the center, the large triangular Passage Stone has white candles on one side that reveal Murals, and another side holding a campfire to meditate at to access the Passage Stone. Note that this meditation circle is only accessible once the player has progressed to at least Hidden Forest. To the right side of the plateau is the entrance to the Cave of Prophecies, a hidden area in an opening within the clouds. The portal is blocked off by a Spirit Gate requiring 2 Regular Spirits from Hidden Forest to be relived.

The Isle Temple overlooks the entire area. To continue onwards, approach the stone ramp in the distance. The cliff's entry is blocked by a Spirit Gate requiring 1 Regular Spirit from Isle to be relived.

In the Sand Dunes, players can find:

2 Children of Light
2 Map Shrines
2 Regular Spirits ( Pointing Candlemaker, Ushering Stargazer)
3 Seasonal Spirits ( Troupe Greeter, Sassy Drifter, Piggyback Lightseeker)

Isle Temple[]

The Isle Temple is a large cathedral home to the Elder of the Isle. To reach the Isle Temple, head for the rising cliff to the north of the Sand Dunes and fly onwards, following the wind which leads you to the Isle Temple. The interior of the Temple is small, only holding white candles which summon Murals, and a large gate requiring two buttons to be lit. Lighting them will open the gate, leading you to the main room of the Temple with the Elder of the Isle's altar. Lighting the altar's candles will activate a meditation circle, letting the player meet the Elder of the Isle in a cutscene. After the cutscene, the door ahead will open as Birds rush into the Temple. From the door, take off into the clouds and glide onto the next Realm, Daylight Prairie.

To the left of the Temple entrance is a natural tunnel that contains the Rejecting Voyager. To the right of the Isle Temple is the Butterfly Cave, with the only entrance to it being a cloud tunnel. The cave entrance is blocked off by a 2-player door. Upon opening, the player will see waxed pots with Butterflies, an elevator, two activation buttons, and the Boogie Kid. The first button on the floor opens the gate on the roof, while the second button will activate the elevator. After opening the roof and unsealing the pots, the player will be able to get out of the cave by deep calling to attract the Butterflies to lift them upwards. From there, the player will see a view of the Sand Dunes, and a small tunnel where a Child of Light can be found, as well as a small pond with a flutter of Butterflies and a Treasure Candle at the exit.

Around the Isle Temple, players can find:

1 Map Shrine
1 Regular Spirit ( Rejecting Voyager)

No Thanks Expression. The Rejecting Voyager is found in a cave left of the Isle Temple entrance, behind a Spirit Gate requiring both the other two Isle Spirits. The collectibles offered by this Spirit are a

Anything bought from their Friendship Trees do not count towards Realm Constellation Progression.

In addition, Seasonal Quests from the Season of Prophecy in the Cave of Prophecies with the Trials, the Season of AURORA's first Quest outside the Mural Cave, the Season of Enchantment's third Quest with the Cyan Light, and the Season of Passage's first Quest can be completed in Isle of Dawn. All require activation from the relevant Season Guide to begin the Quests. Aside from Enchantment's Cyan Light Quest, all of these Quests are repeatable and the experience will be mostly the same.
