Biography

Breath of the Wild

Great Goddess Statues are larger variation of the standard Goddess Statue. They are functionally the same as regular Goddess Statues, offering to exchange four Spirit Orbs for a Heart Container or a Stamina Vessel.[2]

When Link speaks to the Great Goddess Statues at the Spring of Courage or the the Spring of Power, it will instruct him to offer the scale of its respective Dragon.[3][4] Doing so will unlock the path to an Ancient Shrine. At the Spring of Wisdom, the Spring of Wisdom Statue will instruct him to free Naydra from the Malice that has corrupted it.[5]

Great Goddess Statues are unique Goddess Statues known for their immense size.[6] Like typical Goddess Statues, they are able to exchange four Lights of Blessing for a Heart Container or a Stamina Vessel.[7] They also accept four Sage's Wills to deepen the vow of a Sage.[8] Each Great Goddess Statue has a corresponding Bargainer Statue located below their position in the Depths.

An additional Great Goddess Statue can be found in the Temple of Time on the Great Sky Island. Unlike the other Great Goddess Statues, it does not have a unique name. During the "Find Princess Zelda" Main Quest, Rauru suggests that Link find the final Light of Blessing on the Great Sky Island and give them to the Great Goddess Statue in exchange for a Heart Container, which should restore enough of his strength to open the nearby door.[9] When Link returns with all four Lights of Blessing, he is able to request a Heart Container from the Great Goddess Statue.[10] This Great Goddess Statue's counterpart, the Plains Bargainer Statue, can be found below its position in the Depths.

As part of the "A Picture for Riverside Stable" Side Quest, Ember wants to display a Picture of a Great Goddess Statue at Riverside Stable, but he has been unable to find one.[6] If Link takes a Picture of a Great Goddess Statue and shows it to him, he will be able to create the Picture of a Great Goddess Statue.[11]
