==Overview== | ==Overview== | ||
The Champions' Ballad | ''The Champions' Ballad'' introduces a new main quest, as well as several side quests to obtain new items. After freeing the four [[Divine Beast]]s, [[Link]] is telepathically contacted by [[Zelda]] who tells him to return to the [[Shrine of Resurrection]] on the [[Great Plateau]]. After inserting the [[Sheikah Slate]] in the pedestal there, a [[monk]] known as [[Monk Maz Koshia|Maz Koshia]] speaks to him. He promises Link that if he can prove his worth, he may tame a Divine Beast of his own. Maz Koshia presents Link with the [[One-Hit Obliterator]] and instructs him to use it to defeat the enemies present in four different camps. Once each camp has been cleared, a shrine appears. Once Link has spoken to the monks in each shrine, the weapon splits into four orbs and spread across [[Hyrule]], causing large [[monument]]s to rise from the ground. | ||
The monuments activate in Link's presence, displaying maps revealing the locations of further trials. Link encounters [[Kass]] at each of the monuments, who sings for him verses of his master's unfinished song about the [[Champion]]s of Hyrule. In each of the shrines Link receives an [[emblem]] specific to a Divine Beast. After obtaining three of each, he is able to enter the [[Realm of Memories]] and battle once again against the blight afflicting the beast. After besting the monster, Link experiences a vision of each champion's memory of the moment when Zelda requested them to pilot a Divine Beast. | |||
After defeating the four blights, Link is instructed to return to the Shrine of Resurrection and place the Sheikah Slate once again into the pedestal. The chamber seals itself and descends deep into a labyrinth; [[Final Trial|a fifth divine beast]], resembling an engine. Maz Koshia instructs Link to navigate the labyrinth and activate four [[terminal]]s that control a lock on a large stone door at the rear of the dungeon. Once the four locks are disengaged, Link proceeds through the opened door to find Maz Koshia himself meditating on his pedestal. Before Link can report his completion of the trial, Maz Koshia rises and reveals there is to be one final trial. He transports the two of them to a floating platform in the sky, and announces that Link must battle and defeat the monk himself. | |||
Once defeated, Maz Koshia alters the layout of the floating platform to present Link with the [[Master Cycle Zero]], a Divine Beast. He allows Link to acquire the [[rune]] to summon it before transporting him outside the [[Shrine of Resurrection]]. Link encounters Kass once again, who reveals that he has finished the verses of his masters song and plays to Link the finished ballad. While listening to the song, Link experiences one final memory of the day he and his fellow champions were officially created at [[Hyrule Castle]] by the [[King Rhoam|King of Hyrule]]. The memory culminates with [[Purah]] taking a photograph of them and Zelda with the Sheikah Slate. Kass announces that he finally understands the true power of music, and gives Link the photo which he found amongst his teacher's belongings. Zelda's voice speaks to Link once again, congratulating him on conquering all of the trials. She informs him that he is now truly powerful enough to finally defeat [[Calamity Ganon]]. | |||
