Upon entering Hyla II, make your way directly to the Ancient Ruins. You will find some creatures guarding the place, but they won’t attack you. While you are here, you will see a platform and a beam of light falling on it. If you inspect the platform floor, you will find the constellation of the scorpion. Your objective here is to shine the beam of light onto the scorpion’s tail, as marked on the image above. 

To do this, step close to the platform and a hologram will appear. There are four circles around a bigger middle circle. Upon closer inspection, while aiming at any one of the four circles, a text with the words Glyph will appear. You can interact with the four circles one at a time to move the beam of light. Aim at the circle you wish to press and hold the interact button. Keep moving the beam till it touches the tail of the scorpion. If done correctly, the Scorpion Sting will appear and you can step onto the platform to collect it.
