Starting from the Sentinel Shrine at the arena entrance, go left and drop down onto the ledge at the edge of the map. Follow the path until you reach a round room with some enemies and fire cannons guarding the toy, which is locked inside a cage.
Head back towards where you entered the area. You must first throw your shield at an orange chain that passes through a hole in the wall behind the cage, and then you must hurl your shield at the blue gear that is now accessible on the wall in order to raise the cage. You can continue the path that you can drop onto after the fight encounter to locate all the gold and the toy in a cage.
Gold serves as the primary medium of exchange for goods and services. Toys are hidden objects that are miniature, cartoonish figurines that each symbolize a different kind of demon that the player encounters during the campaign. Since the level is open-world, you can go to the Gore Portals in any order you like.
