Karahatag Shrine, also known as Drifting Flame, is a Shrine of Light from Tears of the Kingdom.
The Shrine is located in the Gerudo Desert.
Drifting Flame
First Room
As you enter the first room, you'll see a closed gate with an unlit upside-down ancient torch suspended to the left of it, and a lit ancient torch with a normal Torch (Breath of the Wild) on the ground to the right of it. Ignoring the torch on the ground, pull out your bow and walk over to the lit torch so that it lights your arrow on fire, and then shoot it at the upside torch to light it, opening the gate. You can also just fuse a Fire Fruit to your arrow and shoot the upside-down torch to light it that way.
Second Room
Climb the ladder, and you'll see a button on the floor with a fence on three sides of it, a large open platform behind it with three columns suspended over it, and a walkway to it's right that leads to the final closed gate. There is also a lit ancient torch that you can pick up with Ultrahand on that walkway. Standing on the button causes the open platform to drop down a good ways (roughly 20ft/6m), but also causes upside-down ancient torches to come down out of the bottom of the three suspended columns. You need to light the torches to open the final gate.
Use Ultrahand to grab the lit ancient torch off of the walkway, then quickly move the torch underneath each suspended column (a few feet/1m beneath the bottom), then set it down and quickly run back to the button. Once you step on the button, quickly use Recall on the lit ancient torch. If done correctly, the torch should move back to each column, lighting the upside-down torches and opening the gate. If trying to get all three lit in one shot is too difficult, it is possible to do the torches one at a time, as once an upside-down torch is lit, it will stay lit, even when it is no longer exposed.
Shrine Chest
The lone chest of this shrine (which contains a Construct Bow whose level depends on your world level) is in an alcove directly underneath the button in the second room. The easiest way to get to it is to get on the walkway to the final gate, and then paraglide under the open platform right into the alcove. You can then use Ascend to get back up by the button once done.
