Biography
Kass is a minstrel who travels Hyrule and sings the legends of the areas he visits whilst accompanying himself on accordion.[1][2] When Link first meets Kass he introduces himself as a wandering minstrel, with a love for song. He travels the lands learning songs passed down within each region of Hyrule. He will offer to play songs related to the area Link encounters him in, the lyrics of said songs containing clues on how to unlock nearby hidden secrets.
When spoken to at the Rito Stable, he will confess that he is homesick, and wonders how his wife and children are doing back at Rito Village. Once Link solves the riddles in each of his songs, he returns to Rito Village, where he'll remain by the flight platform next to village shrine. When visited at night, he'll reveal that his teacher was a Sheikah poet who lived in Hyrule Castle before the Calamity struck and had an unrequited love for Princess Zelda. Kass will then play one final song which reveals that Link's near death was what finally unlocked Zelda's abilities. Afterwards, he tells Link that he's aware of his true identity as Zelda's appointed knight and asks him to reaffirm that he'll help Zelda will save Hyrule.
Songs
The Crowned Beast
Location: Rabia Plain
"A beast that wears a crown of bone,
Prancing through the lush green.
Mount the beast upon its throne,
For only then the shrine is seen."
Meaning: By mounting a nearby wild male deer and walking it to the platform where Kass is playing, a shrine will appear.
The Hero's Cache
Location: Kitano Bay
"An ancient hero spoke these words:
'One day I'll return to fight evil.
My cache is at 17 of 24,
This rock will point toward its retrieval.'"
Meaning: Use the Magnesis Rune between 5pm and 12am on the ocean to get a chest with a gold rupee in.
The Serpent's Jaws
Location: Zonai Ruins
"Where the dragon's mouth meets the serpent's jaws
A shrine sleeps in the forest with noble cause."
Meaning: Following the Dracozu River north into Damel Forest, the river ends in the shape of a serpent's head. At the end of the clearing, a dragon skull forms a cave. Inside is the Spring of Courage. By placing a scale of Farosh the Dragon, acquired by simply firing an arrow and striking his body (but not his horn, claws or mouth) while flying through the sky, into the spring players can access a hidden shrine behind the statue of the Goddess Hylia.
A Song of Storms
Location: Calora Lake
"When a lost hero calls down lightning from the sky
The monk responds from a giant mound on high."
Meaning: Atop the hill southeast of Calora Lake sits a veiny mound concealing a Shrine. A metal object left atop the mound will attract lightning, causing the mound to shatter and reveal the Qukah Nata Shrine.
Master of The Wind
Location: Horon Lagoon
"He breaks the rocks that serve to bind,
Above the tempestuous bay.
On wings of cloth and wood entwined,
He lands on the altar to open the way."
Meaning: Use the Remote Bomb rune to explode rocks blocking wind currents. When all of the rock are broken, use the Paraglider to glide through the currents and land on the shrine pedestal.
The Two Rings
Location: West Hyrule Plains
"When a single arrow threads two rings,
the shrine will rise like birds on wings."
Meaning: Fire a single arrow into two rings at once.
Sign of the Shadow
Location: Gerudo Tower
"As light shines from the northwest skies,
From the tower's shadow an arrow flies.
Pierce the heaven's light to reveal the prize."
Meaning: Stand on the shrine pedestal and fire an arrow towards the Gerudo Tower when the moon is inline with the tower.
Under a Red Moon
Location: Washa's Bluff
"When the moon bleeds and the fiends are reborn / The monks will invite you as they have sworn.
But first you must stand on the pedestal bare / With nothing between you and the night air."
Meaning: Stand on the shrine pedestal completely armor-less during a Blood Moon event at 10:00PM to 12:00AM.
Etymology
Kass is potentially derived from cassowary, a type of large, flightless bird.
