Location and Uses

The History of the Zora, Part Four is a Stone Monument that can be found on one of the riverbanks south of Luto's Crossing in the Lanayru Great Spring. Link must read it to complete the Side Quest "Zora Stone Monuments".[2]

This Stone Monument describes the history of Mipha's Lightscale Trident. The Spear was made by Dento as a gift for Mipha to celebrate her birth.[3] As Mipha grew, she began to receive lessons from the royal Zora guard, particularly from Seggin.[4] Following the Great Calamity, when Mipha did not return, the residents of Zora's Domain fell into a depression.[5] To offer her soul rest, they tried to send her Lightscale Trident down Zora River.[6] However, it began to glow, and the people heard Mipha telling them she is one with the Lightscale Trident and to remember her.[7] Since then, the day of the Great Calamity is celebrated as the Champion Festival in Zora's Domain to honor Mipha.[8]

History of the Zora, Part Four
The Lightscale Trident
As told by King Dorephan

The queen and I were blessed with a daughter as lovely as a jewel. We named our princess...Mipha.

To celebrate her birth, the smithy Dento presented Mipha with a gift: a mighty spear called the Lightscale Trident.

Mipha grew into a bright girl and soon reached the age of receiving lessons from the royal family's order of knights.

The whole of the royal guard adored her, especially Sergeant Seggin, who loved her as if she were his own kin.

Under Seggin's instruction, Mipha honed her skills, and her radiance grew along with her skill with the Lightscale Trident.

As a Champion, Mipha made her people proud. However, once the Great Calamity stuck, she was never to return.

All of Zora's Domain fell into misery. The merest thought of the princess was enough to overcome anyone with tears.

As a way of offering her soul repose, they tried to send the Lightscale Trident drifting down the Zora River.

But when they did, the trident began to glow, and Mipha's voice rang loud and clear for all Zora to hear:

"The Lightscale Trident and I are one... Abandon your grief and know joy once again. Do not cry...just remember."

And so, keeping to her request, on the day of the Great Calamity...the day that Mipha passed from this world...

the Zora venerate the Lightscale Trident and remember their brave princess.

Such is the origin of the Champion Fesitval.
