I'm looking for the characters of the ancient sky book, but there is one in the desert (gerudo mesa) according to all the walk throughs. But basically I'm trying to remove the statue in Shads Basement, but I can't move it yet because Shad hasn't gotten rid of that stone inside of the statue for yet, so I can't get the broken cannon. I'm going insane. Also, this is where the part of the bridge apparently is as well.

Can someone help me out?

If you haven't gotten the bridge fixed then you have to go to the lake cannon guy and have him fire you into the desert from there. once in the desert you can walk to the seal and to the far south east corner of the map to get the bridge piece and teleport spot.
