Light Dragon Monsters
In-game Description
A spirit has taken the form of this giant dragon inhabiting the upper reaches of the skies. It is named for its shining golden mane and gleaming scales. It looks divine as it soars through the sky, giving off a soft glow, and its presence is comforting somehow.
Tips/Strategy
Roams the skies of Hyrule so moves position. Easiest place to catch it is by using a nearby tower. You can land on its back to recover the Master Sword.

At this point, you might still be able to reach it if you launch from the skyview tower. But it’s probably easier if you wait.
Of note, the dragon will also pass somewhat near the Flame Gleeok flying above Trilby Canyon. But not close enough for a proper fight.

9. Hyrule Surface Map

Obviously you can launch yourself from the skyview tower. You could also glide down from Jirutagumac Shrine in the sky.

The Light Dragon will pass over East Reservoir Lake.
Since Wellspring Island and the Water Temple are also above the lake, you could intercept the dragon by coming from there.
