Stone Tablets are recurring objects and items in The Legend of Zelda series.[1][name reference needed] Stone Tablets go unnamed in The Wind Waker, The Minish Cap, Spirit Tracks, A Link Between Worlds, and Tri Force Heroes.

Location and uses[]

The Wind Waker[]

Stone Tablets appear in the Earth Temple and the Wind Temple in The Wind Waker. They are also found at the entrance to both dungeon (Headstone Island and Gale Isle, respectively).[2][3]

The Stone Tablets are large slabs of rock that block doorways, and can only be destroyed when Link plays the Wind Waker alongside the corresponding Sage. The Stone Tablets have on them the requirements to destroy them: the melody that must be played and the instrument needed. Resting atop all is a symbol of the Triforce.

The Stone Tablet at the Earth Temple teaches Link the "Earth God's Lyric," the melody he must play in front of Medli to awaken her as the Sage of Earth.[4] Once she has awakened, Link must take her back to Headstone Island to play the "Earth God's Lyric" together and thus destroy the Stone Tablet.[4] As the pair ventures through the Earth Temple, they encounter two more of these Tablets, which must be destroyed using the same process as done in the entrance of the dungeon. Likewise, at Gale Isle, a Stone Tablet teaches Link the "Wind God's Aria" that he must play to Makar in order to awaken him as the Sage of Wind. Only with the sound of Makar's violin will the Stone Tablets shatter.[2]

The Minish Cap[]

Two Stone Tablets appear in The Minish Cap. The first appears in the Elemental Sanctuary after Link places the newly-reforged White Sword into the pedestal; it gives instructions on how to use the White Sword's ability to split Link into copies of himself.[5] This Tablet disappears after the fourth and final Element is infused into the White Sword,[6] revealing a new doorway that leads to a hidden chamber telling the location of the Light Force.

The second Stone Tablet is located at the top of the Fortress of Winds, accessible after Link defeats Mazaal. It was left by the Wind Tribe, who took the Wind Element and departed for the Cloud Tops. The Tablet explains the method of reaching them: by using the Ocarina of Wind that Zeffa drops at Link's feet shortly after he reads the Tablet.[7]

Phantom Hourglass[]

Stone Tablets double as Signs on many Islands in Phantom Hourglass, and as Tombstones on the Isle of the Dead. On Molida Island, a series of Stone Tablets contain the Wayfarer's Words; Link eventually discovers the Old Wayfarer's hideout at the location where the Tablets intersect.[8]

Spirit Tracks[]

Stone Tablets double as Signs in some Villages in Spirit Tracks. A Stone Tablet near the Trading Post is used to mark the grave of Linebeck Senior.

A Link Between Worlds[]

In A Link Between Worlds, a large Stone Tablet etched with writing and an inverted Triforce symbol rests at the heart of Lorule's Sacred Realm, presumably as a monument to the kingdom's lost Triforce. Prior to the game's events, Yuga discovered a crack in the Stone Tablet through which he could sense a parallel world (Hyrule) with its own Triforce.[9] The sorcerer and Princess Hilda plotted to use this crack to invade Hyrule and claim its Triforce,[10] after their own had been destroyed to quell the constant warring in Lorule.[11]

After Yuga Ganon is defeated and Princess Hilda repents, she uses the last of the power in Ravio's Bracelet to transport Princess Zelda and Link back to their own world through the Stone Tablet's crack. Moments later, Hilda and Ravio watch on as the Stone Tablet begins to rumble and then explodes, before a new Lorulean Triforce forms in its place.

Tri Force Heroes[]

In Tri Force Heroes, Stone Tablets appear next to each Triforce Gateway in the hub area of the Den of Trials. When read, they indicate which Zone the Triforce Gateway will transport the Links to. The Hylian text seen on the Tablets reads "Good Luck".

Breath of the Wild[]

Several Stone Tablets can be found throughout Hyrule Kingdom in Breath of the Wild. The one on Rist Peninsula grants the "Into the Vortex" Shrine Quest, while the one on Mount Taran grants "The Three Giant Brothers". Another can be found along the Karusa Valley path in the Gerudo Highlands, where it provides a hint for unearthing Sho Dantu Shrine. Shee Vaneer Shrine and Shee Venath Shrine both feature identical Stone Tablets. In the Korok Forest, a Stone Tablet near the Ogre Tree that serves as its exit bears a note from Maca.

During the "Trial of Second Sight," Link will find a Stone Tablet in front of one of the Ogre Trees. The Ogre Tree asks him to feed it the Rusty Shield nearby and promises a reward from its brother.[12] Placing the Rusty Shield inside its mouth will cause a Treasure Chest containing an Amber. Past the Water of Lake Saria, another Ogre Tree with a Stone Tablet asks Link to return its Chest, as it was stolen by the brother.[13] Following these instructions causes Kuhn Sidajj Shrine to rise from the ground.

Tears of the Kingdom[]

13 Ancient Hyrulean Tablets can be found throughout Hyrule's Sky. While Link cannot read ancient Hyrulean, Wortsworth can. The tablets were originally written by the High Maiden to King Rauru and Queen Sonia.

Title and location Wortsworth's translations

(Middle English)

Modern English translation Wortsworth's interpretations
(initially in the Great Hyrule Sky), then in Lookout Landing "Ones held y honore als hochmayde to kyng Rauru ond quen Sonia, thaerafter to his suster ond to princesse Zelda. Her on thaes grete stan ond twelf mo withalle make y endite min time with the roial familie. So michte heore remembrance preserven for the sake of hem on who oure hope reaste." "I once held the honour as high maiden to King Rauru and Queen Sonia, thereafter to his sister and to Princess Zelda. Here, on this great stone, and twelve more in all, I will write down my time with the royal family. So might their remembrance be preserved for the sake of him, on whom our hope rests." "The author finishes by saying that she will write aboute the royal family's daily lives in 13 segments. It certainly seems to be a royal diary left behind by a chamberlain or someone of equivalent station."
Account of a Celebration, South Eldin Sky Archipelago "So sweete the song of kyng Rauru, ond so grete the beaute of his susteres daunce, that wer min eies ond eres captif. Ond so hende quen Sonia gasen on us alle, so felt y min herte als captif fallen." Seruantes lyf, tho moche laboursum, han moche jolitee as welle. Longo be the lyf of the roial familie thaere y love so." "So sweet the song of King Rauru, and so great the beauty of his sister's dance, that my eyes and ears were captive. And so kind Queen Sonia gazed on us all, so I felt my heart fall captive. A servants' life, though much laboursome, has much joy as well. Long be the life of the royal family that I love so." "This is an account of a party from those days. It says King Rauru and his older sister sang and danced together while Queen Sonia looked on."
The Strong Queen and the Receptive King, Lanayru Great Spring "Sonia, quen to Hyrules kyng, bi birthe Hylian preesterresse, hirself yborn or londe, nat of skie aboven. Speken she with open herte, earnest to alle, euen even to the Zonais kyng. This kyng ythinke it gode aventure so to lerne of the londes folke. To sen his hed ybent to listenen is swich plesaunce." "Sonia, queen to Hyrule's king, by birth a Hylian priestess, herself born of land, not of sky above. She speaks with an open heart, earnest to all, even to the Zonai's king. This king thinks it a good adventure to learn of the land's folk. To see his head bent to listen is such pleasure." "It claims that Sonia was a priestess before marrying Rauru. Despite his status as a Zonai, a people popularly thought to be gods, she would counsel him without any trepidation. Moreover, Rauru headed this counsel. This account gives us firsthand knowledge of the nature of Queen Sonia and King Rauru's relationship."
The Harmonious Couple, Hebra Mountains Sky "Oft wys Rauru, kyng of kene blade, weyve his werk real in faver of the hunte. Ond oft queynte Sonia, quene of kene insight, seke out him and repaire this kyng to kyngly besynesse. In hir sapience semes she divin, that she cunne him ever finde and for hes folly semes him the mor humain. Ond the kyng? O, he laughe. Nat him hir equal for hir wit, he kunne. Ond the quen, she laughe to, als even she scolden." "Often wise Rauru, king of a keen blade, waves aside his royal work in favour of the hunt. And often clever Sonia, queen with keen insight, would seek him out and repair this king to kingly business. In her wisdom, she seems divine, in that she can ever find him and for his folly, he seems more humane. And the king? Oh, he laughs. He is not her equal in wit, he knows. And the queen, she laughs too, even as she scolds him." "Apparently, King Rauru would vacate his official business from time to time in order to go out hunting. I had the impression he was a stricter, more serious king, but I guess he had a lighter side as well. However, Queen Sonia, was always a step ahead. She would put a stop to King Rauru's hunts and bring him back. In some circumstances, you might expect this to have been a point of tension at their court. But the tone here is much more playful than that. These royals were more relatable than one might assume. Or so it seems from this account, at least. How fascinating. We rarely get a glimpse into the down-to-earth side of royalty in this way."
A Pilgrimage of Light, East Hebra Sky Archipelago "The kyng was late y-come this aven, so maked the quene to sharen tales of hir lond, of shirines al grene yglouen. Of erli daies sinnes Hyrules funding have diverse monstres hir reaume biseged ond assayllede. Uncesinge in striffe, thei broughte to despair folkes lyfen. Kyng ond quen ysete thamselue to bringen scurge to ende. With might of light ond pourre, driven abak ybeen, ond the roial couple made thes shirines to selen hem awei. Thes holi selen ben yclept Shirines of Light. Gret kyng, grete quen, y thank ye. Ye foughte whan y wer maiden-child, that y kude pes toknouen." "The king was late in coming this evening, so we made the queen share tales of her land, of shrines all green and glowing. Of early days since Hyrule's founding, diverse monsters besieged and assaulted her realm. Incessant in strife, they brought despair to the people's lives. The king and queen committed themselves to bring the scourge to an end. With the might of light and power, they drove them back and the royal couple made these shrines to seal them away. These holy seals are called Shrines of Light. Great king, great queen, I thank you. You fought when I was a young maiden, that I could know peace." "The subject here is the actions King Rauru and Queen Sonia undertook not long after Hyrule's founding. With the kingdom established, they were worried for their people, so they set out to eradicate the monsters troubling them. They created structures called Shrines of Light to seal the monsters away so that they could never be revived. There's more here about light... and time too... The sense I get is that the two of them may have had supernatural powers. Though it's part of ancient history, it's a feat those of us living today should still be grateful for."
The Researcher Mineru, West Necluda Bay "Queynte Mineru, the kynges elder suster, falles so dep in hir bokes swich that she oft foryetes to eten. In min wieried wei don y what much y con, but y fer haven that it ben litel avail. Of late treteth she of 'constructes', thinges did she make with hir hondes as vessel for spirit whan bodi-lich failen. So, syede she, micht she liven longe, in spiret yhused withis this 'construct'. Though Mineru ne semes to holden ani deceyte... Bi my feith, y kan nat als trouthe thes wordes bileven." "Wise Mineru, the king's elder sister, falls so deep in her books that she often forgets to eat. In my weary way, I do as much as I can, but I have the fear that it has been of little avail. Of late, she speaks of 'constructs', things she creates with her hands as vessels for the spirit when her body fails. So, said she, she might live longer, her spirit housed within this 'construct'. Though Mineru does not seem to hold any deceit... By my faith, I cannot believe these words as truth." "Here, we learn a bit about Mineru. It says that she neglected to eat or sleep while making something called a... construct? It was part of her research into a means of returning to life as a spirit possessing a new body, should her original one die. To you or I, this sounds less like history and more like some sort of ghost story. But remember who we're dealing with. They may have had unfathomable powers that made such things possible. The revelation that Mineru was a fellow researcher makes her feel like a kindred spirit to me, and yet... The chamberlain who inscribed these tableats treats Mineru with such care and kindness that it warms my heart."
The Foreign Princess, Gerudo Desert "Ful fyn is the weder this morn, ond have y audience with theos princes seyd ben kin bi fer distaunt yeres to quene Sonia. Bi gras has she been given a name most swete, of Zelda she ben yclept. In certain folk stered suspecioun, for straunge wer hir garnementes ond sodein wer her aparaunce. Yet wolde hir contenonce ond bering maked proof of hir right blod and bond to quene Sonia. Als be Zelda to remainen for a wile with us, y wil mi-self als hochmayde offre ekein hir servis." "Fully fine is the weather this morning, and I will have an audience with the princess said to be the distant kin to Queen Sonia. By grace, she has been given a name most sweet, called Zelda. Suspicion stirred in certain folk, for strange were her garments and sudden her appearance. Yet her countenance and bearing are proof her true blood and bond to Queen Sonia. As Zelda will remain with us for a while, I, as high maiden will also offer her my service." "If my translation is correct, the Zelda described here is Sonia's distant relative. According to this, she arrived in Hyrule unexpectedly from another kingdom. It seems she was a beautiful princess. Her strange clothing perplexed the people of Hyrule, and many were suspicious of her at first. But this Zelda had such an undeniable air of nobility that those who doubted she was of royal birth were soon silenced. Note how clearly this conveys the writer's feelings regarding Zelda. Once it was clear Zelda would be staying, she applied to be chamberlain to the princess. That suggests real admiration."
The Free-Spirited Zelda, East Necluda "Princesse Zelda recent comes to sen Mineru, the kynges elder suster. I com eck, for hir to seruen. Todai cam hit ipasse, that Mineru sheued to Zelda construct althergrettest y hav ysen. Zelda, she much desired on hit to riden, ond ne conne nat y seien coust hir stoppen. Though I dyde protesten. Loudli. Neuer the less she made to sitten heighe upon the constructes sculdres ond to riden like an hors, al ful of grace. Min lausion, so graunt alredy, dyde grouen al the more." "Princess Zelda recently came to see Mineru, the king's elder sister. I came too, to serve her. Today it came to pass, that Mineru showed Zelda the altogether greatest construct I have seen. Zelda, she much desired to ride it and I could not see how I could stop her. Though I did protest. Loudly. Nevertheless, she made to sit high upon the construct's shoulders and to ride it like a horse, all full of grace. My admiration, so great all ready, did grow even more." "Zelda apparently visited Mineru often to assist with her research. I have no idea what kind of thing this 'construct' that allowed people to ride on it was. But Zelda rode it so well that our author the chamberlain was again impressed by her skill at everything she tried. That's the long and short of it here. But more than the narrative, what strikes me is the back and forth between the chamberlain and Zelda. The chamberlain tried to warn Zelda of the danger, but Zelda pushed past her and rode the construct anyway. It's short but so evocative of both the level of technology found in this era and the character of their visitor Zelda. The 'treasure' found in these stone tablets is the pearls of wisdom and nuggets of personality contained within."
The Latest Trend, Necluda Sea Sky "Facioun nou favereth garnementes adourned with muscheron patrons, ond fer wid beon thei wern. This last for mucheron com of the casteles seamestre, who sogte to seuen clethes for princesse Zelda to plesen. This facioun, Zelda telled to the seamestre, waere in hir treu hom wel loved. In hir time werd everichon patrons of bright hewes, in the shap of mucheron. Anou our hende seamestre set herte on thes patrons copien, which sele to mani happi persoune. Y seche after som for min one but ne coute nat an on yfinden." "Fashion now favours garments adorned with mushroom patterns, and are being worn far and wide. The latest mushroom fashion came from the castle's seamstress, who sought to sew clothes to please Princess Zelda. This fashion, Zelda told the seamstress, was well-loved in her homeland. In her time, every pattern was of bright hues, in the shape of mushrooms. Now, our skilled seamstress set her heart on copying these patterns, which should make many people happy. I sought some for myself but cannot find even one." "Here we leanr something about the fashion trends of that era. The story's catalyst is their Zelda telling a tailor about the mushroom-patterned outfits becoming popular in her homeland. Intrigued, the tailor fashioned some clothing in that vein, and it caught on in ancient Hyrule. Do you know Cece from Hateno Village? Imagine the look on her face if she were to find out! They say that trends go in cycles, but... I didn't expect mushroom patterns to have been in fashion so long ago! One last thing about the chamberlain... Her interest in fashion shows there was more to her than devoted service. She was just like anyone else in the kingdom."
An Ancient Ghost Story, (initially in the East Gerudo Sky) then in the Gerudo Highlands "Of late have y herd it told a straunge ladi walkes aroung the castel in derk of night. She ond princesse Zelda semes als twinnes two, but this on nadda ne light in hir eien-mor als a ded thing than not. Whan she is asked about thes walkes, princesse Zelda of that ben no-thing remembren. What monstre, or spirt of derknesse, be this visioun? So afeard y am of min imagenninges that y con nat slepen." "Of late,, I have heard it told that a strange lady walks around the castle in the dark of night. She and Princess Zelda seem as twins, but this one has no light in her eyes—more like a dead thing than not. When she is asked about these walks, Princess Zelda remembers nothing. What monster or spirit of darkness is this vision? So afraid I am of my imaginings that I cannot sleep." "It's a firsthand account of a ghostly or maybe corpse-like woman who appeared each night looking just like their Zelda. No matter the era, it seems, people can't resist sharing a good ghost story. A bit like how there have been eyewitness accounts of our Princess Zelda in the newspaper, even though she's missing... Could our Zelda be a ghost too? No... of course not."
For the Hero's Sake, (initially in the North Hyrule Sky) then in the Great Hyrule Forest Depths "Sith hire founding has Hyrule swich hardshippe ysene, but that is onli smale moment of time. Mineru, the kynges elder suster, seyes of this kyngdom that hit ne mot nat awaren aye be ycaccht, nat evenforth fer futur. Princesse Zelda tells hire that this futur be wrat alredi, that a champioun bith from the skie comen. Bitwene the two, thei imaked to finden a wei this champioun in that distaunt time to helpen. Her min treuthe, sogte thei to up-reisen the Temple of Time, into the skie to warden hit onyenes ivil. Al dyden so in fer distaunt dai, our kingdom mighte be safed. In min herte y woot y helpen mot, ond y asked of Mineru, canst yow devyse the menes to upreisen in the skie thaes stane. Min wordes iseie nat ernow, but thei thaes memorie safen, of the roial familie, heigh in the skie for that future time." "Since its founding, Hyrule has seen such hardship, but that is only a small period of time. Mineru, the king's elder sister, says that this kingdom should not be caught unaware, not even far into the future. Princess Zelda tells her that this future is written already, that a champion will come from the sky. Between the two, they made to find a way to help this champion in that distant time. They sought to raise the Temple of Time into the sky to guard it against evil. All done, so on a far distant day, our kingdom might be saved. In my heart, I know I must help, and I asked Mineru if she could devise a means to raise these stones in the sky. My words may not be enough, but they save the memory of the royal family high in the sky for that future time." "That one is all bout the feats Zelda performed for the sake of the hero. The details are unclear, but essentially, the chamberlain trusted in Mineru and Zelda's predictions and wanted to help. She put forth the suggestion to Mineru to build a mechanism that could make her stone tablets float in the sky. Which I take it are the very tablets you found, Link? But it doesn't end there. If my translation is correct, it suggests that their Zelda worked with Mineru to raise the Temple of Time into the sky! The idea of the Temple of Time - a grand edifice built in that ancient era - being lifted to the skies to await a hero... Although given the appearance of the sky islands after the Upheaval, perhaps it's not so far-fetched as it seems. What must it have been like for the chamberlain to live through such miraculous times?"
The Day the Land Rose, South Hyrule Sky Archipelago "Swich wondrous sight y hav bihelden that ne con hit nat justli be described. The Temple of Time y sawe, ond al londe yheld it, reisen to the skie, both ferful ond majestatic. As princesse Zelda itold mi, in fer distaunt future comes a champioun to that place, the hope that Hyrule safen. For that champioun be hit that y thes grete stane inscriben. The kynges elder suster, Mineru, sendes nou thes stane to the skie, that the champioun mought hem ireden." "Such a wondrous sight I have beheld that it cannot be justly described. I saw the Temple of Time, and all the land that held it, rise into the sky, both fearful and majestic. As Princess Zelda told me, in the far distant future, a champion will come to that place, the hope to save Hyrule. For that champion, I inscribe these great stones. The king's elder sister, Mineru, now sends these stones to the sky, so that the champion might read them." "This is an eyewitness account of the day the Temple of Time floated into the sky. It's a landmark discovery for the history of Hyrule. It may be one of the top 10 most important discoveries of all time! Even among all the breathtaking displays of power we knew of from the era, to raise the land and its buildings into the sky... That was a feat impressive even to those accustomed to wonders. You can tell as much from this account. Zelda predicted that a hero would appear in the land they raised into the sky and that would save Hyrule. The chamberlain took this on faith and wanted to know how she could help. So she inscribed these records on the stone tablets that Mineru sent into the sky. Give me a moment. I need to view these accounts as a historian and not get so swept up in personal sentiments..."
A Parting Resolve, Sokkala Sky Archipelago "Rauru, Hyrules kyng. Sonia, hir quen. His elder suster, Mineru. Ond eek princesse Zelda. Al whom y served, ond loved. Al whom thurghgon. Alon kerv y thes wordes upon this stan. This stan, ond al thritene, serven als roial families recorde, min werk final, ful-wroht for al age. Mani the mark made bi thes much biloved peples-som eth-sene, som unsene. Whan y make remembraunce of hir markes, fele y flaume of hope, though ful small, within mi. Hit be als though thes markes som graunt design describen. I ne con nat met princesse Zelda hir lov for hir londe. What mor than, ask y, can y do for Hyrules peples. Let min lyf lede mi fro hennes-forth an answere ful-worthi to this questioun." "Rauru, Hyrule's king. Sonia, his queen. His elder sister, Mineru. And also Princess Zelda. All whom I served and loved. All whom I cherished. Alone, I carve these words upon this stone. This stone, and all thirteen, serve as the royal families' records, my final work, fully crafted for all ages. Many are the marks made by these much-beloved people—some seen, some unseen. When I remember their marks, I feel a flame of hope, though very small, within me. It is as if these marks describe some grand design. I cannot measure Princess Zelda's love for her land. What more then, I ask, can I do for Hyrule's people? Let my life lead me fro henceforth to a worthy answer to this question." "It seems this is the last of the records. The royals whom the chamberlain served so faithfully were gone, one by one… It’s heartrending to read. Her pain comes across so clearly in her words. What’s less clear from these entries is the cause of all these partings… Well, each new mystery is an opportunity to do more research. If I keep digging, someday I’ll unravel it."

Spinoff appearances[]

Ancient Stone Tablets[]

AST Stone Tablet

The eight Stone Tablets can be found at the end of each dungeon and are obtained after defeating a dungeon's respective boss in Ancient Stone Tablets. The Tablets contain writings in a language used in ancient Hyrule, requiring Zelda to use the Book of Mudora to decipher their message. The Stone Tablets reveal that the Silver Arrows, a sealed power needed to defeat Ganon, are found at Death Mountain.
