Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom has plenty of different puzzles to solve, including small shrines, Korok seeds, environmental puzzles, and much grander puzzles like the dungeons. 

When trying to complete the Sidon of the Zora questline, you will come across the Clues to the Sky quest that will need completing first. This quest offers clues you’re going to need to solve in order to progress and it will take Link on a journey to the skies that will also require you to find a Watery Bridge.

Here is everything you need to know so you can get by without a second thought.

How to solve the Sky Quest Riddle clues

There are a few things you’re going to need to have completed before you can progress. One thing that you’re going to want is the Zora Armour, which allows you to swim up waterfalls. Once you have this, you will be able to take on the following tasks much easier.

The riddle requires you to shoot a King’s Scale through a droplet on the Land of the Sky Fish. Only then will you be able to use the Watery Bridge. We will break down how you get all of the above below. 

Where is the Land of the Sky Fish?

Fortunately, figuring out where the Land of the Sky Fish is located is pretty simple. We have it pictured above, and it is just a Sky Island shaped like a fish. If you’re unsure of where it is, it’s the Easternmost point of the Lanayru Sky Archipelago, and above Mipha’s Court.

Now you have figured out where it is, either swim up the waterfall that is running up towards the island, or find some debris nearby (there is plenty), use Recall on the debris, and up you’ll go. 

Where is the Droplet on the Land of the Sky Fish?

You will only be able to see the droplet from a certain spot on the island, and you will need to be looking at the floating debris from the right angle so that it is visible.

  • Face southwest when towards the end of the island
  • Looking out over the debris on the island, it should line up in the shape of a droplet
  • Equip your bow and then fuse a King’s Scale to your arrow.
  • Shoot it through the droplet to reveal the location of the watery bridge.

How to access the Watery Bridge

The entrance to the Watery Bridge is located, after it is revealed, in the East Reservoir Lake. You will now need to go chat with Sidon before progressing to the Lake. 

Once you have rendezvoused with Sidon, you can now move towards the lake where you will need to unblock some pipes, revealing a gate to enter the Ancient Zora Waterworks.

Upon opening the gate, a waterfall will come from the sky allowing you to tackle the Zora dungeon via the infamous Water Bridge.
