The Stolen Heirloom

"" is a BotW: in.

Overview
At BotW: in BotW:, BotW: will find BotW: crying on the floor near BotW:. She tells BotW: that she only took her eyes off an object for a second, and now she does not know what to do. If BotW: tries to tell her to stay positive, BotW: will angrily tell him that the situation is bad. She reveals that the BotW: has been stolen, just after she discovered its secret.

With BotW: distraught, BotW: recites a legend about the BotW:, which states a hero will be able to receive a "blessing of antiquity." BotW: believes that BotW: is this hero, and so she has been researching the BotW: for him. Through this research, she concluded that "the blessing of antiquity" is an BotW: that the BotW: must be used to unlock. However, it was stolen before they were able to inform BotW: of BotW:'s findings.

BotW: has been cleaning the BotW: everyday, so she deduces it must have been stolen late at night. While outsiders are not permitted inside of BotW:, BotW: does not believe any of the villagers would steal from them. With this, the BotW: begins. BotW: feels violated that someone broke into their home, even though her grandmother is still safe. Since BotW: is afraid of the thief, BotW: asks BotW: to spend the day with her.

Afterwards, BotW: will thank BotW: for staying with her. She now sees that her fear will not help in retrieving the BotW:. Earlier, she checked in with BotW: and BotW:, but neither of them saw anyone aside from other villagers. BotW: resolves to try and remember more about the night it was stolen, but she warns BotW: that the thief may still be in the area. Should BotW: see a suspicious person at night, she suggests that he stay away from them.

BotW: can speak to BotW: and BotW: for leads on who to investigate. They are both confused that someone was able to steal the BotW:, claiming that they only let known villages into BotW:. The day before, BotW: and BotW: both visited. They would previously visit during the day, but BotW: suspects that they have become busy and therefore stop by at night.

If BotW: approaches BotW: about her nighttime activities, she becomes offended and tells him to find a new pick-up line. BotW: can then follow BotW: around at night as she heads to the BotW:. Though she speaks suspiciously on her journey,  she will eventually come to kneel in front of a grave. She is scared when BotW: speaks to her, but realizing she has been caught, she decides to come clean. The love of her life was laid to rest in this BotW:, and she still comes by to spend time with him. When BotW: asks where the BotW: is, BotW: is initially confused. After BotW: accuses her of stealing it, she becomes upset.

If BotW: asks BotW: about her nighttime activities, she will be shocked that she has been seen. However, she tells BotW: that she sleeps in her home at night. To figure out the truth, BotW: can follow BotW: through BotW: at night. She wonders to herself if her husband is gone and tries to act naturally. Eventually, she arrives at a small hut near BotW: BotW: patch, where she proceeds to eat one. She admits that, while she likes NaN Carrots, her husband hates them. Due to this, she sneaks out an night to eat them, but she begs BotW: not to tell BotW:. She is confused when BotW: asks about the BotW:, but she almost chokes on her BotW: when he accuses her of taking it. BotW: thinks that BotW: is talking about her BotW: and explains that BotW: gave it to her.

At 10 in the evening, BotW: will abandon his post near BotW: and make his way up to the forest behind BotW:. Like the other two suspects, BotW: can follow BotW:. While he is traveling, BotW: wonders how "they" could have done this and resolves to do something. Though he remarks that it is quiet in the woods, he hears something and becomes suspicious. After he passes over the bridge leading to the BotW:, he demands an unknown individual to show themself.

A BotW: appears on the BotW:, scolding BotW: for shouting. BotW: accuses the BotW: of stealing the BotW:, which the BotW: confirms. When BotW: questions their motives, the BotW: tells him not to play dumb, as he knew what he was getting himself into when he left them. In that moment, he forfeited his life. Though he told him about the BotW:, he is no longer useful to them and must be ended. However, he decides to take BotW: out first.

BotW: must then fight the BotW:. After it has been defeated, he will be able to recover the BotW:. BotW: is in disbelief that he was followed, and he reveals to BotW: that the whole situation is his fault. He admits that he was formerly a member of the BotW:, but then he met his wife, who gave him his daughters BotW: and BotW:. They inspired him to try and leave the BotW:, but instead, his wife was killed as punishment. Unwilling to let his daughters be hurt, BotW: used his position as a guard to pass information along to the BotW:. Consumed by his grief, BotW: tried once again to sever his connection with the BotW: and protect his children. However, the BotW: threatened BotW: and BotW:'s lives if he did not cooperate.

BotW: informs BotW: that BotW: deduced the BotW: was the way to unlock an BotW:. Though the villagers were unable to make it work, BotW: thinks that BotW: will be able to. He promises BotW: that all of the NaN Sheikahs are devoted to helping him on his journey, and he asks BotW: to place the BotW: in the BotW:.

When BotW: does so, BotW: will emerge from the ground nearby. BotW: is shocked that BotW:'s research proved true. He apologizes to BotW: for the trouble he has caused, but he asks that BotW: keep the encounter he had in the woods a secret. While he does not believe he deserves this mercy, BotW: does not want BotW: and BotW: to suffer because of him. BotW: pledges to protect both BotW: and his family no matter the cost. After this, he returns to BotW:, and the BotW: will be completed.
