The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom Fifth Sage is one of the game's main quests. Why bother talking about it? Well, it's because there's hardly any clue to solving it. All you're told is to "find the ruins from The Age of Legends," and you might get frustrated trying to look for the objective. Don't worry, because our guide will help you find the Fifth Sage location in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. Likewise, please be reminded that this article contains spoilers.

There are a lot of ruins in the game, and most of them match that vague description. If you've been exploring as much as you can, there's a chance that you'd think every major landmark fits the bill. However, the location is actually the Ring Ruins in Kakariko. In fact, it's the fifth and final stone tablet, which you'd be familiar with if you've already completed A Trip Through History.
There's one last stone slab in Kakariko's Ring Ruins.To reach it, use your traversal abilities to get to the central section in the area (the one that you couldn't go to earlier since the NPC, Calip, was warning you). You should be able to use your Ascend ability to reach the small room. Take a photo using the Purah Pad, then return to Paya and Tauro down below to share your findings.
Note: As of the time of this writing, we can't confirm if A Trip Through History must be completed beforehand just to trigger the quest step. We were already done with that side quest by the time we got the Fifth Sage objective.
Go to the Popla Foothills Skyview Tower.Continue onward to Dracozu Lake to the south and talk to Tauro.Open the chest to receive the Charged Shirt.The goal now is to follow the winding river while checking for small chambers that have chests. These will net you two other pieces for the Charged set.The river basin itself is shaped like a serpent, and you have to make your way to the "tail" part to the southwest.There, you'll find another chamber. Offer a Zonai Charge by holding and dropping it on the altar. This will lead to a cutscene that reveals the Thunderhead Isles in the sky.Collect Charged Set armor pieces while navigating the winding serpent river.
Along the way, you'll also see push blocks that need to be powered by electricity. The nearby metal rods will periodically draw lightning strikes, too, so you can rotate the push block and wait for it to happen. Alternatively, you can use Shock Fruit or Riju's ability.
Don't equip a single metallic item unless you want this thing here to blast Link in the face.
This is none other than Mineru, Rauru's sister, and she's actually the Sage of Spirit. Your objective now is to collect the four robot parts from each of the facilities surrounding the central forge.
Once you're done with that, Mineru will have a physical form. This new Sage companion acts as a vehicle that you can ride and control. You can attach various Zonai Devices and objects so it can do melee attacks, shoot beams and ranged projectiles, and have additional speed bursts.
Complete Mineru's robot body so she can have a physical form.
However, if you never completed the Fifth Sage quest beforehand, then you'll have to battle the Seized Construct later, and without your own mech, too. One of our writers mentioned that its defenses were through the roof that it took almost 20 minutes before they could defeat it.
