Stone Tablets are recurring objects and items in The Legend of Zelda series.[name references needed] Stone Tablets go unnamed in Phantom Hourglass, Spirit Tracks and Tri Force Heroes.

Location and Uses

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.

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.

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 Link to. The Hylian text seen on the Tablets reads "Good Luck".

Breath of the Wild

A Stone Tablet is the Quest giver for the Shrine Quest, "The Three Giant Brothers". Upon reading it, Link will be instructed to collect the Ancient Orbs guarded by the three Hinox brothers atop Mount Taran and place them in the pedestals near the Stone Tablet.[1] Upon doing so, the Tawa Jinn Shrine will rise from the ground and the Stone Tablet's Quest will be complete.

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 Princess 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.
