"Zelda's Awakening" is the seventeenth Recovered Memory in Breath of the Wild.[1]
Overview
Once Link has unlocked all twelve Recovered Memories from the Pictures on the Sheikah Slate, he can return to Impa to learn the location of the final memory.[2] Hopping down for her pillow, she reveals that Zelda instructed her to wait to show something to Link.[3] She stands in front of the Final Picture, which is hanging on her wall, asks Link if it looks familiar, and states he should be able to get there in a half a day.[4] She sends Link off, telling him to seek out the location.[5]
"Zelda's Awakening" is unlocked in Ash Swamp near Fort Hateno. Several Guardian Stalkers, corrupted by Malice, are seen scouring the area. Link is visibly weakened, but he continues to protect Zelda despite her protests.[6] He stumbles to his feet again, just as a Guardian Stalker finds and locks onto them.
With a shout,[7] Zelda pushes Link out of its crosshairs and holds her hand up. A glowing light forms, and the symbol of the Triforce appears on the back of her hand. The light expands, deactivating all nearby Guardians. Looking at her hand, Zelda is in shock and wonders if that was her sealing power.[8]
Behind Zelda, Link finally collapses. Zelda rushes to his side, shaking him and begging him to get up.[9] He coughs as she holds him up, and she tells him he will be fine.[10] However, Link goes limp in her arms, and Zelda begins to cry. Suddenly, a noise can be heard from the Master Sword. Zelda hears a voice within the Sword that tells her of a way to save Link.[11]
Two Sheikah guards arrive, kneeling by the princess's side. Zelda commands them to take Link to the Shrine of Resurrection, stating that it is the only way to save his life.[12] She tells them to go, reminding them that Link's life is in their hands.[13]
Trivia
- During the game, Garill can be found at Fort Hateno, where he recounts the events of "Zelda's Awakening". However, he mistakenly attributes the Guardians' defeat to Link,[14] when in reality Zelda was the one who defeated them.
- When the Master Sword "speaks" to Zelda, Fi's Theme can be heard playing as part of the background music, and her signature sound effect can be heard.
- If Link takes a Picture of the Final Picture, he will take out the Sheikah Slate to look at it before recalling the Recovered Memory, as he does with other Recovered Memories.
- A depiction of "Zelda's Awakening" can be seen during the Movie "Across Time" from Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity. It shows Zelda saving Link from a Guardian, and she makes a wish to protect everyone.[15]
- The Movie "At Last, an Awakening" from Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity is a reference to "Zelda's Awakening". Both cutscenes feature Princess Zelda awakening her sacred power in order to save Link during the Great Calamity.[16] However, while "Zelda's Awakening" takes place in Ash Swamp, "At Last, an Awakening" is set within Fort Hateno. Link is also injured while fighting Guardians in "Zelda's Awakening", but he faces the four Blight Ganons and survives in "At Last, an Awakening". Lastly, Impa and Terrako were present in "At Last, an Awakening".
