Hestu

is a recurring character in.

When BotW: first encounters a BotW:, it will believe that it has been found by BotW: before realizing that it is mistaken. The BotW: will then give BotW: a BotW: ask him to return it to BotW:. From this point forward, NaN Koroks will continue to give BotW: NaN Korok Seeds once he finds them.

Initially, BotW: can be found on the road between BotW: and BotW:. BotW: is surprised that BotW: can see him, saying that the last time anyone was able to see him was 100 years ago. He introduces himself and asks BotW: for assistance. He will tell Link that his BotW: were stolen from him by a group of monsters. BotW: explains that he is powerless without them, and so he asks BotW: to retrieve them in his stead. This dialogue will trigger "BotW:" BotW:, in which BotW: will have to retrieve BotW: from a BotW: in a nearby BotW:. If spoken to again, BotW: will ask if he completed the task and hopes the monsters have not been using them.

Once BotW: retrieves BotW:, he is overcome with joy and asks for them back. When BotW: returns them, BotW: can tell something is wrong and realizes that the NaN Korok Seeds inside them are gone. BotW: will then explain that if he had even one BotW:, he would be able to sing, dance, and use his powers to expand BotW:'s BotW:. BotW: can upgrade BotW:'s BotW: stash, BotW: stash, or BotW: stash. BotW: states that the other NaN Koroks must have taken the BotW:, and he is surprised to find that he was the target of such a prank.

If BotW: has NaN Korok Seeds with him, BotW: will be able to smell them. For the first expansion of BotW:'s BotW:, BotW: asks for a single BotW:. Should BotW: refuse, BotW: will respond with a dejected sound. If BotW: agrees to the trade, BotW: will ask which stash he would like to upgrade. Every time BotW: upgrades a stash, he will sing the tune that plays with it.

BotW: will only allow BotW: two upgrades before announcing that he needs to return to the BotW:. BotW: thanks BotW: for his help and promises to see him off before leaving. Before he leaves, BotW: can talk to him to learn more about the NaN Koroks. If asked about the BotW:, he will recite the directions he was told: follow the BotW: north. Asking about BotW: himself will have him reintroduce himself and state that he is the most celebrated musician in the BotW:. Should BotW: ask about NaN Korok Seeds, BotW: will hesitate in his explanation before giving an excuse to not continue, saying his voice is blown out.

BotW: does travel north, but he becomes lost along the way. While BotW: is lost, BotW: can find him BotW:, BotW:, and BotW:. During these encounters, BotW: can obtain four more stash upgrades before BotW: remembers the way back. If BotW: makes it into the BotW: before getting these four upgrades, BotW: will appear there straight away and will no longer appear at any NaN Stables.

When BotW: speaks to BotW: in the BotW:, he will be excited and reintroduce himself. He informs BotW: that it is impressive he was able to make it through the BotW:. In BotW:, BotW: will offer BotW: the maximum amount of BotW: upgrades available.

In Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity, Hestu first appears in the Scenario, "Freeing Korok Forest" after the characters admit they might have gotten lost in the Lost Woods. He then becomes a character that can be controlled after it is revealed that a Malice swamp is blocking the way to Korok Forest. His main weapons consist of Maracas and Shaka Maracas.
