I was playing through dread mode and stumbled upon a weird warping glitch while fighting the chozo soldier in Ghavoran. At first, I thought it was just a fluke but then it happened AGAIN after a continue which leads me to believe it's some kind of storage-based glitch that might come in handy to skip shinespark set-ups in runs if we can uncover a reliable way of performing it.

As you can see from the second clip, I was able to perform a regular jump again after the initial warp.

As for how I may have set it up, I did perform a shinespark in the previous room to the underside of the island with two enkys blocking the path and then made my way onto that island, destroyed the enkys, and slid down the magnetic wall on the right to the door that leads to the save room before the fight.

Also if it's relevant, the only abilities I haven't picked up in this run are:

• pulse radar
• cross bombs
• power bombs
• storm missiles
• space jump
• wave beam
