When I finally decided to drop down and discovered the old mine with everything else that place has to offer (trying not to spoil), I was a bit pissed for not exploring earlier.
It also took me waaaay to long to realize the maps are “connected” and so are shrines/lightroots…
Just randomly noticed it after probably 50 hours in-game
If you follow the side quest introducing that area, I think there’s an NPC that mentioned that tidbit. Though, my friend didn’t remember that until I brought it up too, so you may have just not encountered it.
I also ignored them for way too long.

The game even gives you hints that the connection is there on the loading screens 😁
