Mipha is shown to have been a model princess for the Zora and their pride and joy, both demure and an excellent warrior. As an individual, Mipha was known to be affectionate, sweet, kind and somewhat shy, while also being noted for her healing powers. During her lifetime, she kept a [[Mipha's Diary|diary]] of her relationship with Link and devotion to saving Hyrule. The loss of her was a significant blow to the now elder Zora, who blame Link for her demise due to the fact that they entrusted her to both him and the Royal Family of Hyrule as a Champion. Upon arriving to the Zora Domain, Link will encounter a commemorative statue erected in her memory, front and center in the palace.

As an individual, Mipha was known to be affectionate, sweet, kind and somewhat shy, while also being noted for her healing powers. When she was born, [[Dento]] had forged the Lightscale Trident for her to commemorate the occasion.

When Princess Zelda meets with Mipha at the top of Veiled Falls to ask her to become Divine Beast Vah Ruta's pilot, the Zora princess asks for the names of the other Champions.{{Ref|[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]] |So, Princess... May I ask who the other chosen Champions are? - '''Mipha'''}} Zelda goes through the names of [[Daruk]], [[Revali]], and [[Urbosa]], but she doesn't address Link by name, which Mipha already figured out.{{Ref|[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]] |Link.

Mipha insists that she must one day leave him to face her fate with Ruta,{{Ref|[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]] |One day, Princess... I must leave him... to face my fate with Ruta. - '''Mipha'''}} as she surfs down the falls to reach Sidon's leval and has him join her to get the feel of it.{{Ref|[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]] |Join me.

Should fate ever part us... I'm counting on you to protect our beloved home from harm.

After several days go by, Mipha and the Champions meet with Link and the princess as they return from Mt. Lanayru where the latter had been training at the Spring of Wisdom, and she unfortunately had nothing to show for it. Urbosa tells her that pitying herself won't help with it and anything could spark her power at this rate. Mipha steps in and attempts to offer the princess advice in how she uses her own power,{{Ref|[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]] |If I may... I thought you... Well, I'm not sure how to put this into words... I'm actually quite embarrassed to say it. But I was thinking about what I do when I'm healing. You know, what usually goes through my mind... It helps when I think—when I think about— - '''Mipha'''}} but she is cut off when the ground suddenly shakes as Revali flies up to see what was going on before he rejoins them. They figure out that Ganon had just rose from beneath Hyrule Castle. Mipha asks Revali if he is sure,{{Ref|[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]] |Are you sure? - '''Mipha'''}} which he replies that he is. Daruk motivates the Champions to go to their Divine Beasts so they can launch a counterstrike and tells Link to head to Hyrule Castle. Urbosa implores Zelda to get to safety, but the princess refuses as she insists that she must do something regardless of if she had her power or not.

When Ganon took over Divine Beast Vah Ruta, Mipha was slain. 100 years later, Link returns to free the Divine Beast. Mipha's spirit greets him, stating that she is happy to see he has finally arrived.{{Ref|''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]''|You're here. I must say... that I am so happy to see that this day has finally arrived. Now Ruta can be freed of Ganon's control.|'''Mipha'''}} She shows him where the map of Ruta can be found, and then explains that he must open all of the terminals within Ruta to free the beast.{{Ref|''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]''|You'll need a map to prevent you from getting lost.

When Ganon took over Divine Beast Vah Ruta, Mipha was slain. When she didn't return, the Zoras were aggrieved by this and they opt to send the Lightscale Trident down Zora's River until Mipha's voice chimed from her signature weapon as she tells them that she is one with the trident and they should know happiness once more and they should focus on keeping the memory of her alive. It was then that the Zoras constructed a statue of her and began the Champion's Festival tradition. The loss of her was a significant blow to the now elder Zora, who blame Link for her demise due to the fact that they entrusted her to both him and the Royal Family of Hyrule as a Champion.

After the battle is over, Mipha appears before Link as a spirit and thanks him for defeating the monster and freeing both her and Ruta.{{Ref|''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]''|Hello, Link. Because of your courage, my spirit is now free. And Ruta, as well. Thank you. For I am now allowed by this freedom... to be with you once again.|'''Mipha'''}} She offers Link [[Mipha's Grace]], an extension of her healing magic that can revive Link from death.{{Ref|''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]''|Since I am now a spirit, my healing power would be wasted on me. I have no need of it. So therefore... I would like you to have it. Please accept... Mipha's Grace.|'''Mipha'''}} Mipha tells him that was in near despair the day before gaining her freedom, but she no long has to worry about it now that he is here and her hope was to see him again and not to hesitate to call on her power as it would allow her to rest easy,{{Ref|[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]|Yesterday, I was awash in a pool of tears. I had nearly given up hope and resigned myself to being trapped here, as a spirit, for the rest of eternity. But now you're here. All this time, my hope... was to see you once more.

And... the other Champions, of course. Our job will be to help Link as he fights Ganon inside the castle... however we can. Using your ability to drain Ganon of his power is key to our success.

And both your duty and mine will be fulfilled.|'''Mipha'''}} Looking to [[Zora's Domain (Breath of the Wild)|Zora's Domain]], she wonders how her father is doing, and wishes she could see him one more time.{{Ref|''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]''|Father, are you well, I wonder...

When Link takes a fatal blow from an enemy or falling from a great height, Mipha's Grace takes effect as it completely replenishes Link's Life Gauge, along with extra temporary Hearts with Mipha's spirit also appearing.{{Ref|''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]''|It is my pleasure.|'''Mipha'''}} She will let Link know once Mipha's Grace has completed its cooldown.{{Ref|''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]''|Mipha's Grace is ready.|'''Mipha'''}}
Once ''The Champion's Ballad'' is active, Link can undertake the [[EX Champion Mipha's Song]] Quest to undertake the trials that she herself went through. Once it is completed, Mipha will voice how impressed she is at how strong Link has become and she will reduce the recharge time for her power, and she is optimistic that Link can save Hyrule and its princess.{{Ref|''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]''|You're so strong...so much stronger than before.

When Link repeats his battle with Waterblight Ganon, Mipha will give more dialogue. In the first dialogue, Mipha will ask Link if he recalled the day, they fought the Red-Maned Lynel on Ploymus Mountain together.{{Ref|[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]|Link. Do you recall the time we went off to defeat that monster together? The Lynel of Ploymus Mountain was terrorizing us all. But then you came along. You and I fought as one and... Does any of that sound familiar? - '''Mipha'''}} In the second dialogue, Mipha will ask Link how much he remembers before Ganon returned and if he knows why the Zora Armor fit him so perfectly and while she resigns to the possibility that Link might never recall those memories, she nonetheless will never forget them.{{Ref|[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]|Link... How much do you remember of what took place between us 100 years ago? Do you know why that Zora Armor fits you so perfectly? There are many things I hope you will remember, but if you can't recall those memories, I suppose it can't be helped. As for me...I shall never forget... - '''Mipha'''}} In the third dialogue, Mipha will strictly warn Link against reading her diary and hopes he respects it.{{Ref|[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]|Link. If you happen to, uh... That is to say, if you should find my diary somewhere... DON'T YOU DARE READ IT! Oh! I did not mean to raise my voice. But I do hope you will respect my wish... - '''Mipha'''}} In the fourth dialogue, Mipha will make a request that Link relays her messages to her father, brother, and Princess Zelda but she is hesitant to give her own message to Link himself.{{Ref|[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]|If you ever return to Zora's Domain... Please tell Father that I am sorry. Tell Sidon to believe in himself. And someday, please tell the princess that I wish I could have told her... all of the things I never said. As for you, Link... Well, never mind. - '''Mipha'''}} In the fifth and final dialogue, Mipha happily calls Link's skills exceptional and believes that he can defeat Calamity Ganon and save Princess Zelda.{{Ref|[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]|You are truly exceptional. That thing too my life before I could even fight back. I believe that with the power you've attained you can defeat Ganon. My prayers are with you as well. Please, dear friend...save the princess. - '''Mipha'''}}


When Calamity Ganon breaks out of Zelda's magic that contained him for a century, Mipha wastes no time opening fire as it was their last opportunity and won't fail.{{Ref|''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]''|''This will be our final opportunity.
