Follow our guide to complete The Mother Goddess Quest in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. Learn how to find the Goddess Statues, collect dragon claws, and obtain the White Sword of the Sky.
Walkthrough
- 1Goddess Statue of Wisdom: Travel to the Goddess Statue of Wisdom under the Mount Lanayru Skyview Tower. Pray to it, then head to the Forgotten Temple (teleport to Kiuyoyou Shrine and go west). Enter the temple, defeat the Bokoblins, and activate the Mayausiy Shrine. Inspect the toppled Mother Goddess Statue. Return to the Statue of Wisdom and accept the quest to retrieve a claw from Naydra. Camp near the Naydra Snowfield Chasm if Naydra isn't visible. Equip cold-resistant gear, fly to Naydra, and shoot its glowing blue claw with an arrow. Collect the fallen claw and return to the Spring of Wisdom. Drop the claw into the water to complete the quest and receive a Sapphire.
- 2Goddess Statue of Power: Go to the Goddess Statue of Power near Jochi-iu Shrine and East Akkala Stable. Pray to it, and it will ask for a claw from Dinraal. Dinraal is often found around North Akkala and North Eldin. If not visible, camp near the East Akkala Plains Chasm (near Sinatanika Shrine). Equip heat-resistant gear, harvest Dinraal's claw using the same method as Naydra, and return to the Spring of Power. Drop the claw into the water to complete the quest and receive a Ruby.
- 3Goddess Statue of Courage: Locate the Goddess Statue of Courage below the Jiukoum Shrine in Faron. Pray to it, and it will request a claw from Farosh, the electric dragon. Farosh is often seen around Lake Hylia. You can camp at Popla Foothills Skyview Tower or near the East Gerudo Chasm. Equip lightning-resistant gear, harvest Farosh's claw, and return to the Spring of Courage. Drop the claw into the water to complete the quest and receive a Topaz. The statue will then instruct you to visit the Mother Goddess at the Forgotten Temple.
- 4The White Sword of The Sky: Teleport back to Mayausiy Shrine in the Forgotten Temple. Head to the room with the Mother Goddess statue. It will now be upright. Pray to it to receive the White Sword of the Sky.
Tips
- Ensure you have adequate cold-resistant gear for Naydra, heat-resistant gear for Dinraal, and lightning-resistant gear for Farosh.
- The elemental dragons follow specific flight patterns and may not appear immediately. Camping near their respective chasms can help speed up their appearance.
- When harvesting a dragon's claw, aim for the claw specifically when it glows blue. Hitting other parts of the dragon will not yield the required item and can only be harvested once per in-game day.
- Using the slow-motion effect while aiming your bow can make it easier to hit the glowing claw.
- The winds around the dragons can help you stay airborne without depleting your stamina.
