The Royal Tech Lab(TotK | HWAoC)[1][2] or the Ancient Research Institute,(BotW)[3] also known as the Royal Ancient Lab,(HWAoC)[4] or the Royal Tech Lab,is a recurring location in The Legend of Zelda series.

Features and Overview

Breath of the Wild

The Ancient Research Institute was a facility established for the sole purpose of researching Ancient Technology.[3] It was placed on the North Hyrule Plain in Hyrule Field in proximity to Hyrule Castle, one of three known sources of Ancient Energy[5], to remain under the control of the Royal Family of Hyrule.[6] After the thorough destruction of the Ancient Research Institute during the second Great Calamity, it was abandoned and became the Royal Ancient Lab Ruins. Robbie and Purah fled and formed their own individual Ancient Research Institute in the two other known sources of Ancient Energy, the Akkala Ancient Tech Lab in the Akkala Highlands and the Hateno Ancient Tech Lab in Hateno Village, respectively.

  7. "The Sheikah Slate conveyed the little Guardian's purpose. This anomalous visitor had traveled from a future of ruin—a time in the midst of the Calamity—to save Princess Zelda. Impa proposed recruiting Purah and Robbie, renowned researchers of ancient technology, to study the Guardian and investigate the mysterious tower that had appeared on Hyrule Field. King Rhoam of Hyrule gave his assent. Zelda, curious about the diminutive Guardian, decided to accompany Impa on her journey to Purah's research facility in Hateno. With Link acting as bodyguard, they made their way to the Ancient Tech Lab." — Narration (Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity)
