The, also known as the , is a recurring Series: in.

The Calamity Ganon Tapestry is a scroll created by the BotW: that depicts the events of the Era of Prosperity leading to the Series:. It is split into sections depicting three primary events. The top section depicts the great prosperity that Hyrule once had. BotW: can be seen at the center of the top section, flanked by NaN Sheikah Towers which were used to detect BotW:'s presence. The top section also depicts ancient BotW: with the BotW: as well as the ancient King of Hyrule surrounded by Soldiers and his worshipers.

The central section of the Tapestry depicts the battle against BotW:: the Princess with the blood of the Goddess and the Series: chosen by the Master Sword aided by 130 NaN Guardian Stalkers, 61 Sheikah Monks, and four NaN Championss piloting four NaN Divine Beasts in repelling and sealing away Ganon. The bottom portion of the Tapestry shows how following BotW:'s sealing, the people of Hyrule began to fear the power of the Sheikah technology, prompting the King of Hyrule to destroy all the advancements made by the Sheikah and actively oppress them in fear of their betrayal. As a response, the Sheikah were split into two factions: those who remained loyal to Hylia and would work to aid the Hylians by secreting their technology away in Ancient Shrines until Ganon's return, and those who rejected their ties to Hylia and the Hylians who betrayed them by taking refuge in the BotW: Region and resolving to aid BotW:'s return. This group would later be known as the BotW:.

The Tapestry sits inside Impa's House in BotW:, where she uses it to inform Link of Hyrule's past and of BotW:'s nature. The same story was preserved in song form by Kass's late teacher, who passed it down to his apprentice. Consequently, the Tapestry is seen when listening to one of Kass's Ancient Songs.

After Link has found all twelve NaN Dragon's Tears at the NaN Geoglyphs around Hyrule, TotK: will return to her house and sit by the screen. If asked, she will tell Link about the story it depicts and Calamity Ganon's relationship to the TotK:. If Link is wearing the TotK:, Impa will remark that he appears similar to the Ancient Hero depicted on the screen.
