Mineru is the older sister of Rauru and another one of the Zonai. Her unique power over spirits is enhanced by her Secret Stone, allowing her to separate her spirit from her body. As a researcher, she is fascinated and deeply knowledgeable about the Zonai's history and technology, and seeks to create constructs as new bodies to store her spirit in should her original body pass away. It is Mineru who informs Zelda of the forbidden process of draconification, the consumption of a Secret Stone to obtain immortality at the cost of one's own humanity, but she cautions Zelda against utilizing the ritual.

Mineru fights alongside Rauru's other sages against Ganondorf, but is mortally wounded in the process. An ill and weakened Mineru is later visited by Zelda, who reveals her intention to achieve draconification in order to restore the Master Sword; unable to dissuade her, Mineru vows her support in Zelda's task. To this end, she successfully builds one of her dreamt-of constructs, which she will be able to use as a body to assist Link in the future, hides her Secret Stone away in the [[Spirit Temple]], and transfers her spirit from her body into Zelda's [[Purah Pad]] before her body can succumb to the [[Gloom-Borne Illness]]. Zelda hands the Purah Pad off to a [[Steward Construct]] to give to Link in the future, with the intention that Mineru will immediately lead Link to her construct body and Secret Stone before catching him up on what occurred. However, due to interference from Ganondorf, Mineru's planned construct body is [[Seized Construct|seized]] by [[Gloom]] and Mineru is unable to get in contact with him until he finds a new construct's head on [[Dragon-Head Island]], far above the [[Faron (Region)|Faron region]]. Once he does, she guides him in building her a new construct, traversing to the Spirit Temple, and eventually defeating her original construct body in combat. With her Secret Stone recovered, Mineru is able to address Link face-to-face and explain Zelda's actions. Using her construct, she supports him for the rest of his quest, including facing off against the Seized Construct once again to prevent it from intervening in Link's face-off with Ganondorf.

After Ganondorf's death, Mineru's spirit provides Zelda, Link, [[Purah]], and the four new sages a tour of the Great Sky Island. Mineru briefly speculates on how Zelda was restored to her regular form before realizing that her own time has come as her spirit fades away. Zelda, distraught over the loss of her friend, assures Mineru that she will achieve Rauru and Sonia's dream of peace for Hyrule, and the other sages vow to support her in this task. Confident in their ability to keep this promise, Mineru fades away, assuring Zelda that she will tell Rauru and Sonia of her plans and her great affection for them.
