Rogue Legacy 2 Heirlooms: Echo’s Boots

When you first reach Axis Mundi, you will go down a ramp and out through a gate. There you will find a large gap ahead, with a torch you can Spin Kick off of. Without a few extra jumps, you aren’t likely to be able to clear the gap.
If you return to the previous room, you will see there are a series of lanterns above that can be used to get to the top right corner of the room. The door there will bring you to a tower, climb the inside of the tower to the top and jump down on the left side to reach the Heirloom statue.
