Thick black sludge will cover the missing fragment, and you won’t be able to move it. You must use a Splash Fruit to clear the filth, and you can either shoot it with an arrow or simply throw the object.

Once the fragment is free from the sludge, you can use Ultrahand to move and rotate the piece until it slides into the available spot. When Jiahto notices that the slate has been restored, he will immediately translate the text, and the mission will be marked as completed.

That is the end of our guide on how to complete The Broken Slate main quest in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. Twinfinite has more Zelda content below that you may want to check out before leaving.
