How to return Sprites to a Sprite Station Shrine

Sprites are not only cute, but they are also useful for gaining extra powers and higher-rarity items when you return them to a Sprite Shrine. Sprite Shrines are located all over the map. They are not marked on your mini-map, but if you look around, it is easy to see where the next one is located by the white pillar of light emanating from each one. There are a few Sprite Shrines dotted between and around each named location.

You can see a Sprite Shrine as you drop from the Battle Bus. As you approach a location, look about for the white pillar of light and head towards it. From there, you can locate the nearby Sprites and return any in exchange for rewards.

If you find a Sprite while traveling across the map, grab it to see where the nearest Sprite Shrine is located. Alternatively, you can interact with a Sprite Shrine to reveal the locations of all nearby Sprites and then head back to send it into the shrine.

To return a Sprite to the Sprite Shrine, just visit any of the shrines around the map and approach it with your Sprite. When prompted, place your Sprite inside and wait for your rewards. You will usually receive a high-rarity weapon, healing items such as a med kit and shields, a Boon inspired by your Sprite type, and another Sprite of the same type.

The Boon you receive will depend on the Sprite you return. If you return a Water Sprite, you will receive a Water Boon, and if you return an Air Sprite, you will receive a Wind Boon.
