Zelda's Awakening: Difference between revisions

:''Not to be confused with {{LA}}.''

"{{Term/Store|Zelda's Awakening||Series, BotW}}" is the seventeenth {{Term|BotW|Recovered Memory|link}} in {{BotW}}.<ref>{{Cite|{{Big|Zelda's Awakening}}<br>{{Color|BotW Memory Blue|Recovered Memory #17}}|Adventure Log|BotW}}</ref>

Once {{Term|BotW|Link|link}} has unlocked all twelve {{Plural|BotW|Memory|link}} from the pictures on the [[Sheikah Slate]], he can return to {{Term|BotW|Impa|link}} to learn the location of the final memory.<ref>{{Cite|Hmm... Then I suppose it's time. I will reveal the location of the final memory.|Impa|BotW}}</ref> Hopping down for her pillow, she reveals that {{Term|BotW|Zelda|link}} instructed her to wait to show Link the picture.<ref>{{Cite|Lady Zelda gave me specific instructions. She asks me to wait to show you this.|Impa|BotW}}</ref> 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.<ref>{{Cite|This is the final picture. Does it look familiar? From this village, you should be able to get there in a half-day's time.|Impa|BotW}}</ref> She sends Link off, telling him to seek out the location.<ref>{{Cite|Now go, child. Seek out what Lady Zelda has shown you.|Impa|BotW}}</ref>

The memory is unlocked in [[Ash Swamp]], leading towards [[Fort Hateno]]. Several {{Plural|BotW|Guardian Stalker|link}}, corrupted by [[Malice]], are seen scouring the area. Link is visibly weakened, but he continues to protect Zelda despite her protests.<ref>{{Cite|Link, save yourself! Go! I'll be fine! Don't worry about me! Run!|Zelda|BotW}}</ref> He stumbles to his feet again, just as a Guardian Stalker finds and locks onto them.

With a shout, Zelda pushes Link out of its crosshairs and holds her hand up. A glowing light forms, and the symbol of the {{Term|BotW|Triforce|link}} appears on the back of her hand. The light expands, deactivating all nearby {{Plural|BotW|Guardian|link}}. Looking at her hand, Zelda is in shock and wonders if that was her sealing power.<ref>{{Cite|Was... Was that...? The power...|Zelda|BotW}}</ref>

Behind Zelda, Link finally collapses. Zelda rushes to his side, shaking him and begging him to get up.<ref>{{Cite|No, no... Link! Get up!|Zelda|BotW}}</ref> He coughs as she holds him up, and she tells him he'll be fine.<ref>{{Cite|You're going to be just fine...|Zelda|BotW}}</ref> However, Link goes limp in her arms, and Zelda begins to cry. Suddenly, a noise can be heard from the {{Term|BotW|Master Sword|link}}. Zelda hears [[Fi|a voice]] within the sword that tells her of a way to save Link.<ref>{{Cite|The sword...? So he can... He can still be saved?|Zelda|BotW}}</ref>

Two {{Term|BotW|Sheikah|link}} guards arrive, kneeling by the princess's side. Zelda commands them to take Link to the [[Shrine of Resurrection]], stating if they aren't quick he will be lost forever.<ref>{{Cite|Take Link to the Shrine of Resurrection. If you don't get him there immediately, we are going to lose him forever! Is that clear?!|Zelda|BotW}}</ref> She tells them to go, reminding them that Link's life is in their hands.<ref>{{Cite|So make haste and go! His life is now in your hands!|Zelda|BotW}}</ref>

* During the game, [[Garill]] can be found at Fort Hateno, where he recounts the events of this memory. However, he mistakenly attributes the Guardians' defeat to Link,<ref>{{Cite|Almost hard to believe they managed to hold back a whole horde of Guardians here. If not for {{Color|BotW Blue|Fort Hateno}} and the warrior, there'd be no such place as {{Color|BotW Blue|Hateno Village}} anymore.|Garill|BotW}}</ref> when in reality Zelda was the one who defeated them.

* When the Master Sword speaks, Fi's theme can be heard playing as part of the background music.
