Story Spoilers for The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom
Absolutely LOVED the "Mysterious Eighth" story. Even in Breath of the Wild, there are Seven Heroines Statues, and an Eighth one off in the mountains for some reason.
In Tears of the Kingdom, there's a smaller set of seven statues, and an archaeologist trying to prove there was an eighth heroine. When you prove the existence of the eighth heroine, you have to go FIND the eighth heroine statue.
When you do, you find out why the big and small statues are far away from the others. The Eighth Heroine was actually a man, and therefore, the hero, and his statues, weren't allowed in Gerudo Town.
Eventually, the Gerudo felt bad for keeping him ostracized for being a voe, and built statues of the eighth "heroine" outisde of the city.
