<br>The Zora Prince Sidon helps Link to free the elephantine Vah Ruta, piloted by his older sister Mipha. A young Goron named Yunobo is similarly instrumental in Link entering the lizard-like Vah Rudania, piloted by Goron Daruk. The young Gerdo Chieftain Riju aids Link with Vah Naboris, piloted by her ancestor Urbosa. Finally, Rito warrior Teba joins Link in reclaiming Vah Medoh, piloted by master archer Revali. Link completes a task for each ally to secure their aid. This notably includes the retrieval of the Thunder Helm, an heirloom of the Gerudo tribe, from the Yiga clan; in the process, he defeats the clan’s leader, Master Ko<br><br>Link and Zelda likely spent the months following Breath of the Wild piecing their scattered kingdom back together , the remnants of which have either been repaired or altered in many of the locales spotted throughout the trailer. The towers we once climbed are now surrounded with eerie spotlights, while Hateno’s welcoming atmosphere now is punctured by an aura of fluorescent green energy and a constant darkness that forces its inhabitants to hide away in fear of retaliation. I used to feel welcomed by this place, and now it terrifies me.<br><br> <br>In Kakariko Village, an elderly incarnation of Impa provides Link with a blue Champion's Tunic and tells him he may be able to recover his memories by tracking down significant locations, hinted at by photographs stored on the Sheikah Slate (which once belonged to <a href="https://Zeldatearsofthekingdomfans.com/articles/hyrule-s-lifeblood-elixirs-mastering-tears-of-the-kingdom-s-hearty-ingredient-hunt.html">Hearty ingredients Zelda</a>). Through these memories, it is revealed that Zelda struggled to awaken her powers and was initially resentful of Link for easily drawing the Master Sword and his obvious skills. However, the pair slowly grew closer, thanks in large part to Link protecting her from assassination attempts by the Yiga clan; a disaffected Sheikah who felt betrayed by the royal family and decided to follow Ganon inst<br><br> <br>Of course, there are many more side quests to complete and colorful characters to encounter in Hyrule. However, this synopsis nevertheless covers the broad strokes of Link’s journey in Breath of the Wild , from the tragedies of the past to the triumphs of the present. With this in mind, fans of the game __ should be well-prepared for the release of **Tears of the Kingdom ** , which will soon continue the story of Link and Zelda in the wake of Calamity Ganon’s def<br><br> <br>We'd love to see this large weapon combined with the smaller Gerudo Scimitar – or its powered-up version, the Scimitar of the Seven. Hopefully, some fusions blend the shape and abilities of the two weapons, as we'd love to see a beefy sword like the Edge of Duality wielded with the swiftness and skill of the Gerudo Scimi<br><br> <br>Until recently, the only information that could be used to glean anything about Tears of the Kingdom and its plot was contained in the trailers, alongside some other details that have been announced. It's known that the story will feature Hyrule once again being thrown into an apocalyptic situation, as it is seen crumbling under an energy that is eerily similar to that wielded by Calamity Ganon in BOTW . In addition, Link has a glowing arm in TOTK that appears to be a significant part of his arsenal in the new game. However, the biggest hints so far may have come from recent alleged Tears of the Kingdom leaks of the artb<br><br> <br>If Tears of the Kingdom leads to the flooding of Hyrule, then it could secretly be the prequel to The Wind Waker . This idea could play into the Tears of the Kingdom trailer from the most recent Nintendo Direct. Ganon's minions are raging, and his influence is still strong across the land despite his defeat. That combined with the TOTK leak potentially hinting at time-travel could see the flood, and therefore the Wind Waker timeline as a future that Link must avoid. While Hyrule may get buried beneath the waves, it could be Link's duty to make sure that it doesn't stay that <br><br>At first glance, the land of Hyrule looks near-identical to Breath of the Wild's post-apocalyptic, Guardian-infested map. In the official trailer, you'll notice Link riding around on horseback in the tell-tale green fields of Hyrule's central region.<br><br>Is Hyrule getting European medieval-style dragons now? If so, does this mean that Link can get snatched into the sky at any time? Are beloved horse companions subject to this overhead threat too? Guess only time will tell.<br><br> <br>This tattoo of the Fairy Queen from The Wind Waker has to be the most wholesome Zelda tattoo. The Fairy Queen with her child-like, yet almost alien design, is an unfortunately overlooked character in the Zelda series, but this tattoo does justice to both her power and her adorable appearance. The bright sky-blue of one of the best Legend of Zelda Great Fairies works well against the brownish-pink tones of the skin, and also allows the primary colors of the Goddess Pearls to still be clear in the design (by @gamexcoreink on Tumb<br><br> <br>Once his preparations are complete, Link storms the inner sanctum of Hyrule Castle. As he does so, Zelda’s strength finally fails her, allowing Calamity Ganon to break free as a twisted combination of corrupted Sheikah technology and Breath of the Wild ’s sludge-like Malice , a substance that seems to be pure hatred in corrosive, physical form. The Divine Beasts fire their enormous energy weapons, severely weakening Ganon and helping Link defeat him. However, Ganon quickly reforms as the boar-like Dark Beast Ganon, and a still-incorporeal Zelda warns Link that Ganon has abandoned any hope of reincarnation in order to focus all of his stren<br>
