Key takeawaysSpoilers

Keep the four-part structure of the task in mind: locate a depot, recover its component, use Ultrahand to move it to the central assembly mold, and repeat until the vessel is complete.

  • Four parts are required The required pieces are the right arm, left arm, right leg, and left leg. Each is found in a separate depot within the Construct Factory.
  • Ultrahand is the core tool The parts are transported with Ultrahand rather than collected as ordinary inventory objects. The factory layout must be crossed while keeping the correct component moving toward the central assembly mold.
  • Assembly unlocks the next sequence Completing the construct changes the quest from gathering and construction to the Spirit Temple confrontation with the Seized Construct.
  • The reward is story-critical The completed sequence leads to Mineru's Secret Stone and establishes her aid as the Fifth Sage.

The Sage of Spirit's Task overviewSpoilers

The Sage of Spirit's Task is the construction-focused portion of Guidance from Ages Past in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. Link works with Mineru, the Sage of Spirit, to recover four separated body parts and assemble them into the construct she can pilot.

Mineru is introduced as the Sage of Spirit, appearing as a spirit who needs a physical vessel. Her task is not completed by finding a single item: Link must gather the right arm, left arm, right leg, and left leg from four depots in the Construct Factory, an area located in the Depths. The quest therefore combines exploration with practical use of Ultrahand, as each part must be moved toward a shared assembly point.

The four depots are built around the Construct Factory and each contains one specific component of Mineru's construct. Link uses Ultrahand to transport these parts to the central assembly mold. The objective is less about carrying the pieces conventionally than about navigating the factory while manipulating large objects and bringing each one back to the place where the body can be completed.

Once all four parts are assembled, Mineru's construct becomes a functional vessel that she can pilot. Link and Mineru then proceed to the Spirit Temple, where they confront the Seized Construct. Completing this sequence allows Link to obtain Mineru's Secret Stone and secure her aid as the Fifth Sage, making the quest an important turning point in the main story.

WalkthroughSpoilers

  1. 01

    Enter the factory area and identify the central assembly mold.

    Reach the Construct Factory

    Begin the construction task in the Construct Factory area of the Depths, where Mineru's four body parts are distributed among separate depots. Use the factory and its central assembly mold as your reference point so that every recovered part can be brought back to the same destination.

    Location: Construct Factory

    TipTreat the central mold as the return point for the entire task; orient yourself around it before choosing a depot.

  2. 02

    Recover a construct part.

    Search the first depot

    Enter one of the four depots and recover the construct component stored there. The exact part depends on the depot, so check which body section you are moving before leaving and keep the route back to the central assembly mold in mind.

    Location: One of the four depots in the Construct Factory

    Watch outDo not assume all depots contain interchangeable pieces; the quest requires the right arm, left arm, right leg, and left leg.

    Checkpoint
  3. 03

    Bring the first part to the mold.

    Transport the recovered part

    Use Ultrahand to move the recovered body part out of the depot and across the factory toward the central assembly mold. The important action is delivery, not merely finding the component, so continue until the part reaches the assembly area.

    Location: Route between the depot and the central assembly mold

    TipKeep the part attached to a controllable arrangement only as long as it helps movement, then position it at the mold.

  4. 04

    Recover the remaining three parts.

    Return to the remaining depots

    Repeat the search for the other three body sections, visiting the depots separately rather than expecting the parts to be grouped together. Each trip has the same basic pattern: identify the missing section, use Ultrahand to move it, and return it to the central assembly mold.

    Location: The remaining three depots in the Construct Factory

    Watch outThe task is incomplete until all four named sections have been delivered: right arm, left arm, right leg, and left leg.

  5. 05

    Build the complete construct.

    Assemble the construct

    After all four parts have been brought back, use the central assembly mold to complete Mineru's body. Confirm that the right arm, left arm, right leg, and left leg have all been incorporated before leaving the factory.

    Location: Central assembly mold, Construct Factory

    Checkpoint
  6. 06

    Finish the vessel and continue with Mineru.

    Use the completed vessel

    With the body fully assembled, Mineru's construct becomes a functional vessel that she can pilot. This marks the end of the collection and construction portion of the task and opens the path toward the Spirit Temple.

    Location: Construct Factory

    TipThe completed construct is the intended result of the depot sequence; do not treat the four parts as a permanent collection objective separate from assembly.

  7. 07

    Confront the Seized Construct.

    Proceed to the Spirit Temple

    Leave the construction sequence with Mineru and continue to the Spirit Temple. The next major challenge is the Seized Construct, which must be confronted after the vessel has been completed.

    Location: Spirit Temple

    Watch outThis transition contains major story spoilers and leads directly into the quest's principal confrontation.

Mission mechanics

The defining mechanic is object transport with Ultrahand. The four body sections are not simply awarded for visiting the factory; Link must physically move the right arm, left arm, right leg, and left leg from their separate depots to the central assembly mold. This makes route planning and keeping track of each missing section more important than a conventional item checklist.

The central mold gives the task a clear home base. Returning there after each depot run separates the quest into repeatable units and helps prevent confusion about which part has already been delivered. The construction is complete only when all four named sections have been assembled into Mineru's vessel.

The quest then changes emphasis. Before assembly, the player is solving a factory traversal and construction problem; afterward, the completed vessel supports Mineru's continuation to the Spirit Temple. The Seized Construct encounter is therefore the narrative and mechanical follow-through to the depot sequence, rather than an unrelated battle.

What works and what does not

Strengths

  • The four-part structure gives the objective a clear completion condition.
  • Ultrahand makes the assembly task active rather than reducing it to ordinary item collection.
  • The central assembly mold provides a consistent destination for every depot run.
  • The completed construction leads directly into Mineru's role as the Fifth Sage.

Weaknesses

  • The supplied material does not identify the precise route, hazards, or obstacles in each depot.
  • The four depots can be confusing if the player does not keep track of which named body section has already been delivered.
  • The quest combines construction and a later boss confrontation, so players seeking only the assembly objective must continue into the Spirit Temple to finish the sequence.

Best uses

  • Use the central mold as a navigation anchor.
  • Track the four body sections by their exact names rather than referring to them collectively as parts.
  • Plan for the Spirit Temple confrontation after assembly instead of treating the factory as the complete endpoint.

Encounter phasesSpoilers

  1. 1

    Factory recovery

    Starts: Entering the Construct Factory and beginning the depot search.

    Not applicable

    The first phase is exploration and transport. Link visits four separate depots to recover the right arm, left arm, right leg, and left leg, using Ultrahand to move each part back to the central assembly mold.

    • Keep a record of each named body section as it reaches the mold.
    • Return to the central assembly area after each depot delivery.
  2. 2

    Construct assembly

    Starts: All four body parts have been returned to the central assembly mold.

    Not applicable

    The recovered pieces become a complete construct body that Mineru can pilot. This is the completion point for the factory's construction objective.

    • Verify that all four named sections are present before moving on.
  3. 3

    Spirit Temple confrontation

    Starts: The construct is fully assembled and Link and Mineru proceed to the Spirit Temple.

    Not specified in the supplied material

    The quest transitions into the confrontation with the Seized Construct. The supplied facts establish the encounter but do not provide a full attack list or phase breakdown.

    • Prepare for the temple encounter before leaving the construction sequence.

Seized Construct encounterSpoilers

  • Location
    Spirit Temple
  • Health
    Not specified in the supplied material

Complete Mineru's construct first, then proceed with Mineru to the Spirit Temple. The supplied material confirms that the Seized Construct is confronted there, but does not provide enough sourced combat detail to state a reliable attack-by-attack strategy.

Rewards

  • Progress toward obtaining Mineru's Secret Stone
  • Mineru's aid as the Fifth Sage

Choices and consequencesSpoilers

  • Which depot to visit first

    The supplied material does not establish an order requirement for the four depots. The objective remains the same: recover all four named parts and deliver them to the central assembly mold.

  • Whether to assemble the construct

    Assembly is the required progression of the task. Completing it makes Mineru's construct functional and allows the story to proceed toward the Spirit Temple confrontation.

AftermathSpoilers

Mineru joins the story as the Fifth Sage

Completing the construct does more than finish a factory objective. It enables Mineru to pilot her vessel, leads Link to the Spirit Temple and the Seized Construct confrontation, and results in Link obtaining Mineru's Secret Stone and securing her aid as the Fifth Sage.

Trivia

  • Mineru is introduced in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom as the Sage of Spirit.
  • The task uses four specifically named body sections rather than a single undifferentiated construct item.
  • The four depots are all located within the Construct Factory area of the Depths.
  • The construct is both the product of the factory objective and the vessel Mineru can pilot afterward.
