"The Spring of Wisdom" is a Shrine Quest in Breath of the Wild.[1]
Overview
In Hateno Village, Link can speak to Medda, who states there is not much to see in their town.[2] When Link presses further, Medda shares that there is a dye shop in town,[3] though he also points out Mount Lanayru to the north.[4] At Link's confusion, Medda explains that the Spring of Wisdom, where Princess Zelda purified herself, is on top of the mountain.[5]
Medda suspects that the Royal Family of Hyrule left a treasure at the Spring of Wisdom.[6] Since Mount Lanayru is covered in Ice, Medda thinks it is unlikely anyone would be able to find out.[7] However, he encourages Link to explore up there if he has the opportunity.[8] When he finishes speaking, the Shrine Quest will begin.[note 1]
On top of Mount Lanayru, Link will find Malice Naydra curled around the Spring of Wisdom's Goddess Statue. Through the Statue, The Goddess Hylia congratulates Link for finding the Spring.[9] She explains that Naydra is a spirit that has overlooked the land of Hyrule for ages.[10] Unfortunately, it has become corrupted by Calamity Ganon's Malice.[11] Therefore, The Goddess Hylia tasks Link with purging the Malice from Naydra.[12] The Glowing Eyeball on Malice Naydra's head opens.
When Link shoots one of the Glowing Eyeballs, Malice Naydra will begin to fly above the Spring of Wisdom. Using its Updrafts, Link can reach the Dragon to continue shooting at the Malice. Malice Naydra will make its way towards Naydra Snowfield. After all of the Glowing Eyeballs have been defeated, Naydra will return to its white and blue appearance and fly to the Spring of Wisdom.[13]
The Goddess Hylia congratulates Link for freeing Naydra.[14] She instructs Link to shoot Naydra with one last Arrow, thereby freeing the Dragon.[15] When he does, one of Naydra's Scale will drop right in front of Link as it flies away.[16][17] The Goddess Hylia instructs Link to drop it in the Spring.[18] When this is done, the door to Jitan Sa'mi Shrine will open, and The Goddess Hylia will tell Link to go forward.[19] Afterwards, the Shrine Quest will be completed.
Objectives
1 | Medda, a resident of Hateno Village, told you that there is a Spring of Wisdom somewhere on Mount Lanayru, which towers to the north of the village. The story goes that long ago, a princess used that spring for a purification ceremony. Moreover, there are rumors of a fantastic treasure hidden in the spring. |
2 | You found no treasure but instead discovered Naydra, the Spring of Wisdom's guardian spirit, who has been overtaken by darkness. Break through the evil force possessing Naydra to set this great spirit free! |
3 | You freed Naydra, the guardian dragon of the Mount Lanayru spring, from the darkness that had overcome it. When Naydra soared away into the heavens, it left behind Naydra's scale. |
Complete | When you tossed Naydra's scale into the Spring of Wisdom, an ancient shrine appeared. Freed of the shackles of evil, Naydra flew away in peace. |
