To begin this Quest, [[Link]] must speak to the three [[Goron Blood Brothers]] on [[Mount Nabooru]].

On {{Term|BotW|Mount Nabooru|link}}, {{Term|BotW|Link|link}} will encounter the three {{Plural|BotW|Goron Blood Brothers|link}} hyping themselves up.<ref>{{Cite|{{Big|BEYOND MACHO!}}|Heehl|BotW}}</ref><ref>{{Cite|{{Big|PUMP IT UP, BROTHER!}}|Bayge|BotW}}</ref>{{Note|If {{Term|BotW|Link}} has already completed "{{Term|BotW|The Gut Check Challenge|link}}", {{Term|BotW|Bayge}} will recognize him as their fourth brother.<ref>{{Cite|Oh! It's the fourth Goron Blood Brother! The one who somehow beat our famous Gut Check Challenge!|Bayge|BotW}}</ref>}} {{Term|BotW|Bayge|link}} explains that this is their ancestral training ground and the three of them are partaking in a contest of endurance,<ref>{{Cite|This is our ancestral training ground! Us three Goron Blood Brothers are in the midst of a {{Color|BotW Red|contest of endurance}}!|Bayge|BotW}}</ref> which causes {{Term|BotW|Heehl|link}} to shout about feeling the burn.<ref>{{Cite|{{Big|FEEL THE BURN, BROTHER!}}|Heehl|BotW}}</ref> They are taining themselves to be more resistant to heat,<ref>{{Cite|We're trainin' to become strong and powerful Gorons! Right now we're competin' to {{Color|BotW Red|beat the heat}}!|Heehl|BotW}}</ref> Commenting on how sweaty he is,<ref>{{Cite|{{Small|So sweaty... Brother...}}|Kabetta|BotW}}</ref> {{Term|BotW|Kabetta|link}} reveals that the heat in {{Term|BotW|Goron City|link}} has become too much for them as of late, which is why they came to the {{Term|BotW|Gerudo Highlands|link}}.<ref>{{Cite|We're Gorons...but the heat is too much for us these days... It's too hot to handle in Goron City...so we came here to train ourselves...|Kabetta|BotW}}</ref>{{Note|If {{Term|BotW|Link}} already beat the {{Term|BotW|Gut Check Challenge|link}}, {{Term|BotW|Kabetta}} believes that he will want to try this challenge as well.<ref>{{Cite|Of course, since ya beat the Gut Check Challenge, you'll wanna try this too.|Kabetta|BotW}}</ref> He reveals that they came to {{Term|BotW|Mount Nabooru}} to help them handle the rising heat in {{Term|BotW|Goron City}}.<ref>{{Cite|That's why we came here to train! After this, we'll be able to handle the extra heat in Goron City, no problem.|Kabetta|BotW}}</ref>}}
 
{{Term|BotW|Bayge}} has an idea,<ref>{{Cite|Hey, I have an idea!|Bayge|BotW}}</ref> which causes {{Term|BotW|Heehl}} and {{Term|BotW|Kabetta}} to invite {{Term|BotW|Link}} to train with them.<ref>{{Cite|Come join us!|Heehl|BotW}}</ref><ref>{{Cite|Yeah! Come try the {{Color|BotW Red|contest of endurance}} yourself...brother!|Kabetta|BotW}}</ref> If {{Term|BotW|Link}} agrees, {{Term|BotW|Bayge}} compliments him for his answer.<ref>{{Cite|[Sure, I'll give it a try.] Good answer!|Bayge|BotW}}</ref> {{Term|BotW|Heehl}} remarks that {{Term|BotW|Link}} has a burning passion,<ref>{{Cite|A guy like you has a burning passion in his belly!|Heehl|BotW}}</ref> which {{Term|BotW|Kabetta}} claims is inspiring.<ref>{{Cite|It's inspiring...brother!|Kabetta|BotW}}</ref> The {{Plural|BotW|Goron Blood Brothers}} all stand on the platform behind them, telling {{Term|BotW|Link}} to join when he is ready for the contest.<ref>{{Cite|When you're ready, step up onto this platform! Then the {{Color|BotW Red|contest of endurance}} will commence!|Bayge|BotW}}</ref> With this, the {{Term|BotW|Shrine Quest}} will begin.
 
When {{Term|BotW|Link}} steps on the platform, {{Term|BotW|Bayge}} will inform him that he will lose if he leaves the ring or passes out.<ref>{{Cite|If ya leave the the ring or pass out, it's all over! You lose! Got it?|Bayge|BotW}}</ref> With {{Term|BotW|Link}} there, {{Term|BotW|Bayge}} starts the contest of endurance.<ref>{{Cite|OK... Now prepare yourself for the... {{Color|BotW Red|CONTEST OF ENDURANCE}}!! GOOOOOO!|Bayge|BotW}}</ref> During the contest, {{Term|BotW|Link}} is able to wear pieces of {{Term|BotW|Flame-Resistant Equipment|link}} or drink {{Plural|BotW|Fireproof Elixir|link}}, which can grant him {{Term|BotW|Flame Guard|link}}. If {{Term|BotW|Link}} does not have any {{Term|BotW|Flame Guard}}, it is possible to suffer through the damage until the round is over, consuming {{Plural|BotW|Meal|link}}, {{Plural|BotW|Food|link}}, or {{Plural|BotW|Elixir|link}} to restore his {{Term|BotW|Life Gauge|link}} as needed.
 
As the contest continues, the {{Plural|BotW|Goron Blood Brothers}} become overwhelmed by the heat.<ref>{{Cite|Phew! Phew!|Kabetta|BotW}}</ref><ref>{{Cite|Someone's wavin'...|Heehl|BotW}}</ref><ref>{{Cite|Not yeett!!|Bayge|BotW}}</ref> Eventually, {{Term|BotW|Heehl}} and {{Term|BotW|Kabetta}} will collapse from the heat,<ref>{{Cite|I can't...go on...|Kabetta|BotW}}</ref><ref>{{Cite|Is that...Grandpa?|Heehl|BotW}}</ref> leaving {{Term|BotW|Link}} to face {{Term|BotW|Bayge}}.<ref>{{Cite|Piece of...cake!|Bayge|BotW}}</ref> However, {{Term|BotW|Bayge}} immediately passes out as well, making {{Term|BotW|Link}} the winner.
 
After the contest, {{Term|BotW|Bayge}} reveals that he never thought {{Term|BotW|Link}} would beat them.<ref>{{Cite|You're amazing! I never woulda thought the three Goron Blood Brothers could lose to you, brother!|Bayge|BotW}}</ref> Since he completed the challenge, {{Term|BotW|Heehl}} allows him to try out the contest of ultimate endurance.<ref>{{Cite|In fact, I'm grantin' you the highest honor—the chance to participate in the {{Color|BotW Red|contest of ULTIMATE endurance}}!|Heehl|BotW}}</ref> {{Term|BotW|Kabetta}} reveals that it is how their ancestors trained and it is the toughest test known to the {{Plural|BotW|Goron|link}}.<ref>{{Cite|It's where our ancestors trains... It's considered the toughest test known to Goron kind!|Kabetta|BotW}}</ref>
 
{{Term|BotW|Bayge}} points out the second platform behind them, which is even hotter than the first.<ref>{{Cite|You see the ring behind me? The one surrounded in fire? Do ya feel it in your gut—what a bad idea it is to go there?|Bayge|BotW}}</ref> {{Term|BotW|Heehl}} affirms any reluctance {{Term|BotW|Link}} has to the challenge,<ref>{{Cite|Your gut is dead on, brother!|Heehl|BotW}}</ref> as {{Term|BotW|Kabetta}} reveals it is even harder to endure this ring than the previous.<ref>{{Cite|That special training area is even harder than the last ring...|Kabetta|BotW}}</ref> This time, {{Term|BotW|Link}} will be forced to deal with both heat and {{Term|BotW|Fire|link}},<ref>{{Cite|This contest won't just challenge you with heat...but also with fire!|Bayge|BotW}}</ref> as standing on it will cause {{Term|BotW|Link}} to burn.<ref>{{Cite|If ya lose your focus, {{Color|BotW Red|your body will catch fire}}! Make sure you're prepared for this, brother!|Bayge|BotW}}</ref> {{Term|BotW|Bayge}} shares a legend that passing this test will reveal an {{Term|BotW|Ancient Shrine|link}}.<ref>{{Cite|It's said that passin' this test will reveal a {{Color|BotW Red|shrine}}...or some such!|Bayge|BotW}}</ref> When {{Term|BotW|Link}} is ready, {{Term|BotW|Bayge}} tells him to stand on the platform to begin the contest.<ref>{{Cite|If ya think you're ready, climb into the ring. Do that, and our special {{Color|BotW Red|contest of ultimate endurance}} will begin!|Bayge|BotW}}</ref>{{Note|{{Term|BotW|Bayge}} will notice if {{Term|BotW|Link}} is wearing the {{Term|BotW|Flamebreaker Set|link}}, {{Term|BotW|Gerudo Outfit|link}}, or {{Term|BotW|Desert Voe Set|link}}.<ref>{{Cite|HUH?! Is that heat-resistant gear ya have there, brother?|Bayge|BotW}}</ref> He will refuse to start the challenge until {{Term|BotW|Link}} takes the {{Term|BotW|Armor}} off.<ref>{{Cite|A real Goron mane shouldn't have to rely on wussy stuff like that! Goron up and take the challenge without any help!|Bayge|BotW}}</ref>}}
 
When {{Term|BotW|Link}} climbs onto the platform, {{Term|BotW|Bayge}} decides he is ready to attempt the contest.<ref>{{Cite|You're standing up there, which can only mean one thing... You ready to push yourself to your limits, brother?!|Bayge|BotW}}</ref> The rules are the same as before: if {{Term|BotW|Link}} leaves the ring or passes out, he loses.<ref>{{Cite|The rules for this {{Color|BotW Red|contest of ultimate endurance}} are the same as ever. Leave the ring or faint, and it's over!|Bayge|BotW}}</ref> With the rules stated, {{Term|BotW|Bayge}} will officially start the contest.<ref>{{Cite|OK! Time for the world famous... {{Color|BotW Red|CONTEST OF ULTIMATE ENDURANCE}}!! GOOOOOO!|Bayge|BotW}}</ref>
 
Throughout the contest of ultimate endurance, {{Term|BotW|Link}} will lose a total of 23 and half {{Plural|BotW|Heart}}. He can survive the contest in two different ways. First, he can drink a {{Term|BotW|Fireproof Elixir|link}} before starting, which will grant him resistance to all {{Term|BotW|Fire}} damage and prevent him from burning. Alternatively, he can restore his {{Plural|BotW|Heart|link}} as he loses them by eating {{Term|BotW|Food|link}} or drinking {{Plural|BotW|Elixir}}.
 
Once enough time has passed, {{Term|BotW|Bayge}} will stop the contest to tell {{Term|BotW|Link}} he has done well.<ref>{{Cite|{{Big|RAAAAARRRGGGGHHH!! SO EPIC, BROTHER!!}}|Bayge|BotW}}</ref> {{Term|BotW|Heehl}} calls his endurance a powerful display.<ref>{{Cite|What a powerful display! What fire! That was somethin' else, brother!|Heehl|BotW}}</ref> After they speak, {{Term|BotW|Joloo Nah Shrine|link}} will rise from the ground behind them, affirming the legend {{Term|BotW|Bayge}} shared.<ref>{{Cite|Whoah! That's a {{Color|BotW Red|shrine}}...or some such! It really appeared, just like that! So the legend is true, brother!!|Kabetta|BotW}}</ref> {{Term|BotW|Bayge}} declares {{Term|BotW|Link}} the winner of the contest of ultimate endurance.<ref>{{Cite|{{Big|You won the {{Color|BotW Red|contest of ultimate endurance}}, little man! You're amazing!}}|Bayge|BotW}}</ref> With this, the {{Term|BotW|Shrine Quest}} will be completed.
