The Spiritual Stone of Water being obtained in Ocarina of Time
The Spiritual Stone of Water is one of the three Spiritual Stones, and the last to be obtained. It was given to Princess Ruto by her mother, who told her to entrust it to the man who will become her husband.[2] After Link saves Ruto from Inside Jabu-Jabu's Belly, the Zora princess falls in love with the Hero of Time and gives him the Zora's Sapphire as a symbol of their "engagement."[3] Despite this proposal, Link is oblivious to the possible marriage with Ruto, as the young hero knows he need the final Spiritual Stone to complete Princess Zelda's request in order to stop Ganondorf from reaching the Sacred Realm.
