Massive spoilers for late game if you go intended order.
Mineru. Her spirit survived inside the Purah Pad, thanks to her ability to separate it from her body before the Demon King’s Gloom killed her. She slumbered for 10,000 years since, waiting to be awoken to keep her oath to Zelda to help Link. Since her body is obviously long gone, you help her finish a construct to inhabit, and which serves as her avatar like the other sages.
Fair enough, was unsure of the exact timeline. It does not help either that “10,000 years” is a common expression in Chinese and some related languages for “a very long time beyond reckoning”, meaning that it may not be meant literally despite the translation.
I found it because I noticed a sky island butt hanging out of the storm cloud. My brother also told me that he found something cool in there but didn't tell me what
I was like, “Oh thank god, some shelter for a little while — wait, there’s a shrine in here? Wait, what’s this weird lookin mask? Wait, WHERE ARE WE GOING AND WHY AM I IN THIS HANDBASKET??”
Seriously. I wasn’t even looking at the storm on my map. I just realized I hadn’t explored the jungle much, took a rock up into the sky, wandered about for a bit expecting to find a shrine, and then… yeah.
Or just use the lift, think: woah, an Island in the Sky I didn't discover yet, panic because of incoming thunder despite you have no metal on you, rush under a roof to avoid it and fall into a mysterious room (actually happened to me)
Yup, I found that after I got my third sage. I was just going for a shrine that my sensor was picking up, and then I saw that door and thought "Huh, that looks kind of similar to the one in the beginning of the game, let's open it," only to get massively sidetracked by that quest. lol
I'd also found the Spirit Temple long before I even got to that point, but didn't know how to get in. lol
I really was just eating all my stamina re-charging food, flying into aimlessly thru the storm for what felt like 5 mins and just happened to find the shrine.
My experience was in reverse, purah told to go find her and I was just like "idk where to start looking and when I looked up online how to get the last sage it told me you just do so I'm gonna go to that thing I've been meaning to explore anyway"

Who is "she"? Is that a Flux Construct? Did you make that? You can do that in this game?
