Quick Links
The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is full to the brim with side quests. They'll take you all across Hyrule, the sky, and the Depths — as the hero, it's your duty to help everyone, right? Some of these quests link together, but you might not initially realize it. The three Goddess Statue quests are an example of this.
Talking with one of the Goddess Statues at a spring will initiate one of the three quests, but you'll have to do some searching to complete all three of them and get your hands on the final reward. It's not all that easy tracking down the dragons for these quests either, so you might have some trouble there. Here's how you can complete every quest in the chain and locate the three dragons.
How To Initiate The Goddess Statue Quests
These quests link together. You can initiate the chain by speaking to the Goddess Statue at any of the three springs: the Spring of Wisdom, Spring of Courage, or Spring of Power.
It doesn’t matter which order you do these quests, but you need to complete all three to receive the final reward.
The Goddess Statue will tell you that something has happened to the Mother Goddess Statue in the Forgotten Temple, and will ask you to investigate for her.
The Forgotten Temple is located northwest of Hyrule Castle, just below Snowfield Stable. You’ll need to approach it from the southern end and climb up to reach its entrance.
The Mother Goddess Statue is at the very back of the temple, past the shrine. You’ll immediately see that it has toppled over.
Interact with it and then return to the Goddess Statue you first spoke with to report what you’ve found.
The Goddess Statue will ask you to help her lend some power to the Mother Goddess Statue by offering up a claw of one of the dragons, Farosh, Dinraal, or Naydra, depending on which you spoke to first.
Goddess Statue Of Courage
The Spring of Courage is located directly between the Popla Foothills and Dracozu Lake in Faron, to the right of Lake Hylia.
The Goddess Statue will ask you to offer her Farosh’s Claw.
Where To Find Farosh
Farore most commonly appears heading into the Hills of Baumer Chasm at around 1pm. You can paraglide there from Popla Foothills Skyview Tower.
The dragons can sometimes be a little finicky with how they spawn. If you find that the dragon doesn't come, wait and try again, and it will eventually appear.
If the dragon is nearby, the music will change, alerting you to its presence. When you see the dragon, aim an arrow at its claws.
If you hit its body, you’ll receive a scale instead of its claw, which will not work for this quest.
You’ll know you’ve successfully hit the dragon when a sphere of light appears and drops from it.
As you’ll be hitting it over the chasm, it’s likely the claw will fall down. Dive in to catch up with it and grab it.
Claw in hand, return to the Spring of Courage and drop the claw into the water. The Goddess Statue will thank you and encourage you to help the remaining statues.
Goddess Statue Of Power
The Spring of Power is found between North Akkala Valley and Ordorac Quarry, which are located just north of the Akkala Highlands.
Speak to the Goddess Statue here, and she’ll ask you to offer up Dinraal’s claw.
Where To Find Dinraal
Dinraal emerges at around 2:50pm from the East Akkala Plains Chasm, which can easily be found south of the spring and east of the Sinatanika Shrine.
When it flies out of the chasm, shoot its claw with an arrow and retrieve it. Return to the Goddess Statue once again and drop the claw in the water to offer it to the statue.
She’ll thank you and ask you to help the remaining statue.
Goddess Statue Of Wisdom
The Spring of Wisdom is found just below Mount Lanayru’s peak, right next to Mount Lanayru Skyview Tower.
Speak to the Goddess Statue here, and she’ll ask for Naydra’s claw.
Where To Find Naydra
Naydra will come out of the Naydra Snowfield Chasm directly left of the mountain at around 12:45pm. Wait for it to emerge and hit its claw with an arrow.
Grab the claw and offer it at the Spring of Wisdom.
The Mother Goddess Statue
When you’ve successfully helped all three Goddess Statues, the final one will tell you to make a pilgrimage to the Mother Goddess herself.
Head back to the Forgotten Temple and speak with the Mother Goddess Statue. She’ll thank you and give you the White Sword of the Sky as a reward, ending the quest.
