<!--

Ah, a visitor. Welcome to... ... Oh. OH! That object on your hip... Could it be... Forgive me. Where are my manners? I am Kaneli, elder of Rito Village. Now then...is that not a Sheikah Slate dangling from your hip?

[That's right.] Oh, my! So it is true! That means you must be a Champion like Master Revali—one of the few able to board Divine Beast Vah Medoh! No... What am I thinking? The Champions have all been dead for 100 years. This boy must be a mere descendant...an inheritor of the Sheikah Slate. Ah, forgive me... Champion descendant... If you would listen to this old man's request, you would have my eternal gratitude. [No, it's not.] Hoo hoo... So I was mistaken...

(From "That's right.") [I'll listen.] Thank you. Truly. Now that I know you have the blood of a Champion, there is something I must ask of you. How shall I put this... I would like you to deal with Divine Beast Vah Medoh. The giant beast circling above us. Only a chosen one, a Champion, can stop a Divine Beast. You must enter the beast and bend it to your will. I tried explaining this to the more headstrong Rito warriors, but they wouldn't listen to reason. Teba and Harth tried to confront Medoh, but it did not go well, and Harth was injured. Teba escaped unscathed, but I fear he now plans to face Medoh alone. As a descendant of the Champions, perhaps you can help us. Please. Find Teba. If you work together, you may be able to stop Divine Beast Vah Medoh. [Maybe later.] Hoo hoo...

(Stage in Divine Beast Vah Medo quest)

Hoo hoo hoo... If you mean to help us, then allow me to fill you in on the particulars. [Who's Teba?] Teba is a warrior of Rito Village. He lives right next door to my humble abode. He's the one who decided to confront Divine Beast Vah Medoh. He set off alongside another villager named Harth. Unfortunately, Harth was shot down by Medoh and had to retreat. This only made Teba more determined. I fear he has set out to face Medoh by himself. As you can see, Medoh is still flying about up there. I hope Teba is OK. Teba's wife Saki may be able to tell you more about his whereabouts. [Who's Master Revali?] Master Revali was a fierce warrior from Rito Village who died 100 years ago. According to the stories, he flew like the wind itself and wielded a bow twice his own size with ease. His skill was recognized by King Rhoam, and he was entrusted to control Divine Beast Vah Medoh. Master Revali lost his life while piloting the Divine Beast during the battle with Calamity Ganon. What could have happened inside Divine Beast Vah Medoh 100 years ago to kill such a celebrated warrior? [Medoh?] Did you perchance see that giant bird up there? Soaring high above our village? That...is Divine Beast Vah Medoh. The Divine Beasts. Our misbegotten inheritance from the ancient Sheikah. Created eons ago to defeat Ganon. In an ironic turn of events, the Divine Beasts were taken over by the same evil force they were created to defeat. But that was 100 years ago. To thin the Divine Beasts would suddenly reappear and begin attacking innocent people... Could this foretell the return of Ganon?

You have done it! And you survived, at that! You conquered Divine Beast Vah Medoh! To think the beast has taken roost at the top of the village! It looks simply...divine. If the legends are true, "the light from the Divine Beasts will ravage the Calamity." For now, Divine Beast Vah Medoh will become protector of this village and live on in legend...alongside you. Hoo hoo hoo... ...Oh, yes! Of course! I must reward you properly! Feel free to take what you find in that treasure chest. You will get more use out of it than I.

Champion descendant... I have only just realized. That sword you have in your possession... Could it be the sword that seals the darkness? The Hylian Champion who fought alongside Master Revali 100 years ago... Could that be...you?

After Link takes the Great Eagle Bow [Sword?] No, no, I was only joking... That sword you have there. That is indeed the sword that seals the darkness, is it not? Legend has it that the Hylian Champion fought against Ganon with that very sword. Champion descendant... That sword is a precious gift from your ancestors... You must never let it go. [Great Eagle Bow?] That bow I gave you is the finest in the land, crafted in the Rito tradition. The Champion Revali once called it his own. I will not lie—the bow is difficult to handle. No Rito alive is capable of using it to its full potential. Fortunately, our bowyer, Harth, knows the bow well. You should talk to him for details. [Medoh?] Divine Beast Vah Medoh... An ancient Sheikah weapon with the power to seal evil. It was once piloted by the Rito Champion, Revali... If the legends are true, "the light from the Divine Beasts will ravage the Calamity." For now, Divine Beast Vah Medoh will become protector of this village and live on in legend...alongside you. Hoo hoo hoo... -->
