What Holy Sword Endu changes
The publisher explicitly describes using the Holy Sword to fly from platform to platform. It also states that upgrades increase flight distance. Movement progression therefore matters when deciding whether a gap is reachable now or worth returning to later.
Before trying an unfamiliar crossing, check the controls and ability information on your current installation. Identify a visible landing area, then practice the action somewhere familiar. We have not verified universal flight distances, a required upgrade order or a default binding across platforms, so none is specified here.

Keep useful route notes without a full map
Name the landmark you can recognize.
Use a visible doorway, bridge or other feature you can identify again. Your own description is enough; you do not need to invent an official area name.
Write the obstacle, not a guessed solution.
“A ledge beyond a gap” is a useful observation. “Requires exactly three upgrades” is not unless you have tested it. Keep what you saw separate from what you think might unlock it.
Record the route back.
Note the last turn or connection you used. The official description calls the island interconnected and labyrinthine, so recording a connection can be more useful than remembering only a destination.
Recheck after movement progress.
When your flight capability changes, try one recorded crossing again. Compare the actual result rather than repeating every blocked path at once.

Why players are checking movement controls
A selected Reddit discussion focuses on using Wind Dash independently of the equipped weapon. The thread is useful evidence that players can overlook a movement binding; it is not our own test of the controls. Check your current bindings and ability descriptions rather than copying a commenter’s key mapping.
Another Reddit thread discusses interacting with suspicious walls. The official materials confirm hidden secrets, but do not provide a complete rule for detecting them. Treat that thread as player advice, not a guarantee that every unusual wall opens. Both discussions may reveal minor exploration mechanics.
The practical takeaway is to check the actions the game gives you and observe environmental details before searching for a full solution. No secret-room locations or collectible counts are asserted here.

When you are stuck, ask a narrower question
Separate a navigation problem from a combat problem. Can you identify a route but not survive it, see a crossing but not reach it, or no longer recognize how the paths connect? That distinction makes a help request much easier to answer without spoiling the rest of the game.
When asking on Steam or the official Discord, include your platform, version, the obstacle and the abilities you have already tried. Put location names or screenshots behind the community’s spoiler controls where needed. The official Discord link is verified through the developer’s pinned Steam post; its channel history was not part of this research.
If a puzzle seems affected by a technical problem, read the patch notes first. Version 1.01.04 added options intended to make some late-game puzzles less frustrating. The notes do not name a universal solution, so this guide does not invent one.
