Get on the green plate, and just move forward on all of them, making sure you aim for the next green plate when in view, should be easy.
At the top there is a quick chat, then take the rings up the narrow tower nearby, then Elika jump to the first platform. Talk a little, then you can only pull this one down once. Elika jump to the upper left, then turn it down twice, just so the lower right tower’s long beam points down. Then return to the first platform and turn it down so the long beam points to you. Get on the lower right platform, turn the crank down until it gets you to the upper right, so go there.
Now, you are still way too far from the ground, so turn this upper right platform down to move all the platforms. The one with the long beam is near the ground, so jump there, turn it up once, Elika jump over, and it’s fightin’ time.

So expect heavy grab shields. The thing is, you can ring him out, so get close to an edge, get hit back to it, and do something to back him up, but be ready for the attack mash to knock him out. Easy, or it should be. Otherwise it’s just a standard fight. ##
A few more chats, and take the yellow plate here for a brief trip to nab five easy seeds, then Elika jump back for some seeds. Return up the rings to the platforms, and all you have to do is hit the upper left one, the one that spins the whole thing, and you can move to the spots where each seed rests and grab them, and keep going to return to the start.
From the very start, a the bottom of the rings, go up the ring nearby (but it seems the rings are slightly glitched up for some reason, just fight through it if so). There is a seed up here, and then Elika jump to the right for two seeds over the side, but don’t go further down, because then you’re just on the path to the next spot. Of course you are going to Heaven’s Stair, so perhaps you want to hoof it the whole way.
To Heaven’s Stair
Tag the node at the top of The Vale map and head either left or right from the yard, or you could teleport to one of the prior locations to make the trip shorter, but you have close to 200 seeds for the next power, so better bite the bullet now and take a long way there.
You could take the way you used to get here, but since you know that path let’s take the other way, toward the Machinery Ground. You hit the vines, go down a ring (you press nothing to drop down rings), and Elika jump off a pole. At the wall you can drop off the side of a platform that popped up for a seed. You jump up the pole to get another, then you Elika jump off the sliding ring to hit the beams. You arrive at the triple intersection of the Ground, and the rest should be familiar to you.
I would say perhaps now is a good time to retrace your steps through the Ground, since I didn’t recommend it earlier, what with it being so long. One note, when jumping the poles, early on, look up the wall for a ring. Go up the two rings and Elika jump off the very top to hit a platform, where you can jump to another for two seeds; you Elika jump off the left side to return. There is a column where you jump to the wall and jump back for a seed. That’s about it though; don’t miss the Titanic View at the top if you did earlier.
Remember, head to the Stair, it’s only a few jumps away from the intersection, just be quick so the dragonflies can’t get you. Quick note, take the back slide once you head out for those two easy seeds if you haven’t gotten them already.
