The mirror within the Radiant Manor is situated in the Grand Hall, a prominent area within the manor's foyer. While many mirrors in Tenebrous Isle function as entry points, the one in Ossex acts purely as an exit, so focus on the six primary mirrors scattered across the regions.
Mirrors in Mina the Hollower are more than decorative. Each is linked to a specific color and collectively unlock paths in the Astral Orrery. Repeatedly running into a mirror, rather than just interacting, is the key to traversing to the Astral Orrery.
Accessing the Astral Orrery via Mirrors
To advance through Mina the Hollower, you'll need to activate a specific number of mirrors to power a spark generator in the Astral Orrery. This intricate system requires strategic mirror activation to unlock new areas.
Locate the Mirror
Find the mirror in the Grand Hall of Radiant Manor Foyer. This is the first step towards accessing the Astral Orrery from this region.
Enter the Mirror World
Unlike typical interactions, you must repeatedly run into the mirror until you are transported to the Astral Orrery. Do not simply press the interaction button.
Activate the Mechanism
Once inside the Astral Orrery, locate and activate the gold mechanism. This action unlocks the associated room and allows you to freely explore Mirror's End, returning through other activated mirrors.
Activate Additional Mirrors
To fully progress, you'll need to activate a minimum of three mirrors in total across Tenebrous Isle. Each activated mirror unlocks its corresponding colored path in Mirror's End.
Here’s a breakdown of all mirror locations and their associated colors:
| Region | Mirror Location | Associated Color |
|---|---|---|
| Radiant Manor | Grand Hall | (Color not specified, but activates a path) |
| Queensbury Crypt | Statue Head Hall | Blue |
| Bone Beach | Worm's Back | Red |
| Coltrane Peak | Icebound Cavern | Pink |
| Nox's Bayou | Moonlit Path | Green |
| Septemburg | Farm House (Crow Town) | Orange |
The mirror found in the house in Ossex cannot be entered through normal means. It functions solely as an exit from the Astral Orrery, so do not attempt to use it as an entry point.
Mirror Combinations for Quick Progression
Activating at least three mirrors is mandatory to reach the spark generator in the Astral Orrery. While many combinations exist, focusing on specific sets can streamline your progress.
Essential Mirror Locations
- Radiant Manor Foyer: Grand Hall
- Queensbury Crypt: Statue Head Hall
- Bone Beach: Worm's Back
Advanced Mirror Locations
- Coltrane Peak: Icebound Cavern

Here are some effective combinations to quickly reach the spark generator:
| Combination Set | Mirrors Included | Advantage |
|---|---|---|
| Early Game Trio | Radiant Manor, Queensbury Crypt, Bone Beach | Accessible early, good for initial unlock |
| Northern Route | Queensbury Crypt, Coltrane Peak, Septemburg | Covers northern regions efficiently |
| Southern Route | Bone Beach, Nox's Bayou, Radiant Manor | Explores southern and central regions |
| Mixed Path | Radiant Manor, Coltrane Peak, Nox's Bayou | Balances exploration with objective |
Prioritize activating mirrors in regions you are already exploring for other objectives to maximize efficiency. The Radiant Manor mirror is often one of the first you'll encounter.
