A Parting Resolve is an Object in Tears of the Kingdom.[1]

Location and Uses

A Parting Resolve is the 13th and final Ancient Tablet. It is located on a Small Island within the Sokkala Sky Archipelago. Should Link attempt to read the Tablet, he will be unable to discern its contents.[2] As part of the "Messages from an Ancient Era" Side Adventure, Link can take a Picture of the Ancient Tablet to show to Wortsworth, who can then create a translation.[3]

This Ancient Tablet describes the chamberlain's dedication to the Royal Family of Hyrule, despite those she served being gone.[4] Wortsworth notices, however, that it is unclear what happened to them, and he hopes for that his continued research will lead him to such answers.[5] To reward Link for bringing him a Picture of the Ancient Tablet, Wortsworth will give him a Silver Rupee.[6] Once Wortsworth has translated all of the Ancient Tablets, he will post a copy of his translation of A Parting Resolve on the Zonai Survey Team Base's wall.[7]

Ancient Hyrulean

Rauru, Hyrules kyng. Sonia, hir quen. His elder suster, Mineru. Ond eek princesse Zelda.

Al whom y served, ond loved. Al whom thurghgon. Alon kerv y thes wordes upon this stan.

This stan, ond al thritene, serven als roial families recorde, min werk final, ful-wroht for al age.

Mani the mark made bi thes much biloved peples—som eth-sene, som unsene.

Whan y make remembraunce of hir markes, fele y flaume of hope, though ful small, within mi.

Hit be als though thes markes som graunt design describen.

I ne con nat met princesse Zelda hir lov for hir londe. What mor than, ask y, can y do for Hyrules peples.

Let min lyf lede mi fro hennes-forth an answere ful-worthi to this questioun.

Possible Meaning

Rauru, Hyrule's king. Sonia, her queen. His elder sister Mineru. And eke"eke" is an archaic word for "in addition", "as well" princess Zelda.

All whom I served, and loved. All whom have thoroughgone. Alone I carve these words upon this stone.

This stone, and all thirteen, serve as the royal family's record, my final work, fully written for all age.

Many [were] the marks made by these much beloved people— some seen, some unseen.

When I make remembrance of her marks, I feel a flame of hope, though small, within me.

It is as though these marks describe some grand design.

I cannot metmete, i.e. to measure princess Zelda her love for her land. What more then, I ask, can I do for Hyrule's peoples.

Let my life lead me forward henceforth to an answer fully worthy to this question.
