TotK Mineru: Where to Find the Fifth Sage and Her Construct
Find Mineru in Tears of the Kingdom through Dragonhead Island, the Construct Factory and Spirit Temple, then summon her construct with the sage’s vow.
Who is Mineru, and where can you meet her?
Mineru is the Sage of Spirit, whose spirit inhabits a construct in Tears of the Kingdom. Her starting point is the relic behind the door on Dragonhead Island, followed by the Construct Factory in the Faron Depths. She is the fifth sage reached through Guidance from Ages Past, rather than a resident waiting in one of the four regional towns.
This page covers her location and quest handoffs, including later-story destinations.
Where is Mineru at each stage?
| Stage | Destination | What to look for |
|---|---|---|
| Following the main-story lead | Lookout Landing, then Kakariko Village | Purah’s fifth-sage investigation leads to the Ring Ruins |
| Reaching her relic | Dragonhead Island in the Faron sky | The relic behind the large door; follow its green beam |
| Giving her a body | Construct Factory in the Faron Depths | Install the relic as the head, then retrieve the limbs from the surrounding depots |
| Traveling together | From the factory toward the Spirit Temple | Ride and equip the construct to continue |
| Quest completed | Summon through the vow in Key Items | Use the construct while exploring, wherever summoning is allowed |
The guided route through Secret of the Ring Ruins clears the storm-cloud obstacle before the sky-island approach. Follow the Spirit Temple walkthrough for the route between layers; the interactive map lets you switch between sky and Depths.
Which quests lead to Mineru?
| Quest | How to start or continue | Reward or result |
|---|---|---|
| Find the Fifth Sage | Return to Purah after the later castle investigation | The lead toward Mineru; return to report after finding her |
| Secret of the Ring Ruins | Follow the fifth-sage lead to Paya and Tauro in Kakariko Village | The Charged set and the route through the Faron sky investigation |
| Guidance from Ages Past | Interact with the Dragonhead Island relic and carry it along the beam | Construct assembly, Spirit Temple battle, Heart Container and Vow of Mineru, Sage of Spirit |
What if you found the head but have no usable construct?
The head is only the beginning. At the factory, bring back the left arm, right arm, left leg and right leg from their depots and fit them to the body. Once the assembly is complete, Mineru guides you toward the Spirit Temple. The permanent vow follows the temple’s story conclusion, not simply finding the head.
How do you bring Mineru back after the quest?
Open Key Items and select Vow of Mineru, Sage of Spirit to summon or dismiss the construct. Approach it to ride. Weapons and Zonai devices can be attached for combat and movement; its controls differ from the other sages’ single activated abilities.
Finish by reporting to Purah at Lookout Landing. If another main-story objective remains, use the current Adventure Log instruction rather than repeating the factory assembly.
