Overview

Tri speaking to Zelda

As part of the Main Quest "Lands of the Goddesses", the King of Hyrule tasks Princess Zelda with mending three large Rifts that have appeared across Hyrule.[2] One of these Rifts is located on Eldin Volcano. If Zelda asks Minister Lefte about the Volcano, she reveals that it is inhabited by the Gorons, and she suggests that Zelda visit Kakariko Village before attempting to scale it.[3] When Zelda enters the foothills of Eldin Volcano, Tri comments on its size and states they should be able to create an entrance to the Rift higher up.[4] They also wonder about locating the Gorons.[5] Following this conversation, "The Rift on Eldin Volcano" will begin.

Outside of Goron City, Zelda and Tri find a Goron panicking.[6] The Goron welcomes Zelda, but he explains that a Rift opened in the City and swallowed many of the Gorons.[7] Their newly-appointed chief, Darston, tried to rescue them, but he ended up falling in as well.[8] Since they are able to mend Rifts, Tri tells Zelda it is time for them to get to work.[9] The Goron is shocked that Zelda can fix the Rift, and he urges her to follow him into Goron City.[10] Once inside, he shows Zelda the Rift.[11] Nearby, a Goron child cries for his missing father, and another Goron, Ondes, begs for Zelda to help.[12] Tri is able to create an entrance to the Rift, which surprises the Gorons.[13] Within Stilled Goron City, Tri senses the other Tris are trapped in four different areas.[14] Once all of the Tris have been rescued, they work together to mend the Rift. Tri then Warps Zelda back to her world.[15]

Back in Goron City, the Gorons can be seen smiling with each other. Ondes announces that the Rift is gone, and the Gorons celebrate as a result.[16] However, Darston is still confused, and when he asks his fellow Gorons how the Rift disappeared, he is informed that Zelda saved him.[17] Darston thanks Zelda and asks what her name is.[18] Though he is shocked to hear that she is the princess, Darston introduces himself as the chief of the Gorons.[19] He then asks about Tri, expressing how nice it is to meet them.[20]

After looking around for a moment, the Goron child realizes that his father is not present.[21] Ondes also notices that the elders Gol and Silv are mising as well.[22] One Goron recalls that Gol went to the Rock-Roast Quarry, while another remembers that Silv left to investigate the Lizalfos Burrow.[23] When Ondes asks Darston what they should do, he becomes anxious and quietly checks the slate he is carrying.[24] A Goron asks Darston if he is well, and Darston declares he will search for the missing Gorons while the rest wait for him in Goron City.[25] He quotes a "Nugget of Wisdom" before leaving, which confuses the Gorons.[26] Tri then comments on how different Darston seems from the leaders of the Gerudo and the Zora, whom they met previously.[27]

Darston deciding where to go next

Outside of Goron City, Zelda and Tri find Darston struggling to decide where he will go.[28] When he notices the pair, Darston greets them.[29] Tri asks Darston about his slate, and he explains that it is the Goron Chief's 56 Nuggets of Wisdom, a series of mottos left behind by his father.[30] If Zelda asks about his father, Darston reveals that he was the previous chief, but he passed away recently.[31] If Zelda asks about the mottos, Darston states that they contain leadership advice.[32] He feels as though he is not fit to be the Goron chief, despite following his father's instructions.[33]

Tri them informs Darston that they have been mending Rifts with Zelda, and they ask about the largest one on Eldin Volcano.[34] Darston says that it is located within the Crater, which is inaccessible due to the poisonous gas in the area.[35] However, he has heard about a Crater Shortcut, which Tri is intrigued by.[36] He believes that Gol and Silv could know more about it, but he is unsure how to move forward since they are missing.[37] Darston requests that Zelda and Tri help him search the Rock-Roast Quarry and the Lizalfos Burrow for the missing Gorons.[38] When asked about the Quarry, Darston explains that it is located to the northwest, and it is where the Gorons mine their Rock Roasts.[39] When asked about the Burrow, Darston explains that it is a Cave to the north that houses Lizalfos.[40] Darston is eager to leave, but when he is faced with the choice of which location to visit first, he becomes distracted looking at his Nuggets of Wisdom for advice.[41] Upon noticing this, Tri suggests to Zelda that they go ahead while he thinks.[42]

In order to continue "The Rift on Eldin Volcano", Zelda must complete the Main Quests "Rock-Roast Quarry" and "Lizalfos Burrow". After rescuing Gol and Silv, neither is able to remember any information about the Crater Shortcut.[43][44] After Zelda and Darston rescue each of the elders, Darston shares more of his worries about being chief. He feels as though he will never be as great of a chief as his father was, and he is afraid that he lied when he told his father that he could lead the Gorons.[45][46] Once both elders have been saved, however, Darston realizes that he does not need to be the exact kind of leader that the previous chief was, and he instead wants to find his own way.[47] He tells Zelda to join him at Goron City, believing that further conversation with Gol and Silv could help them remember more about the Shortcut.[48] After he leaves, Tri notes the positive change in his behavior.[49]

Darston speaking with Gol and Silv

When Zelda and Tri return to Goron City, they find Darston in the middle of a conversation with Gol and Silv. Gol is shocked that Silv does not remember anything about the Crater Shortcut either, which causes Silv to become defensive.[50] Darston asks them for more information on the Shortcut, and Gol explains that passing its trials and cleansing within the Crater used to be a requirement for becoming the Goron chief.[51] As Darston ponders the Shotcut's connection to himself and his father, Silv recalls that the previous chief blocked off a passageway in his room.[52] Gol remembers this as well, and Darston runs off to investigate.[53] Standing outside of the room, Darston calls for Zelda to follow him.[54] Silv complains about how abruptly he left.[55]

Once inside his room, Darston notices that someone cleaned it up for him.[56] He then points out the stone carving of his father bolted to the northern wall, and he explains that he promised that he would switch it out for one of himself when he became chief.[57] Darston dismisses his thoughts on his father, instead decided to focus on finding the Crater Shortcut.[58] Using Bind, Zelda can pull out the screw holding the previous chief's portrait in place. It falls forward and breaks, revealing the entrance to the Shortcut. Darston is shocked by this, but he is reminded of one of his Nuggets of Wisdom.[59] Now that the Crater Shortcut has been discovered, Darston is eager to continue forward.[60]

Within the Crater Shortcut, Darston points out that the path forward is blocked by a pool of Lava.[61] He consults his Nuggets of Wisdom and finds a motto about borrowing wings, which confuses him.[62] Once Zelda reaches the other side, Darston commends her for doing so.[63] Since he is unable to cross in the same manner, he sends Zelda ahead and promises to catch up with her.[64]

Darston breaking the Rock

Darston reunites with Zelda at the end of the Shortcut.[65][66] He notices that a large Rock has fallen in the way of the exit and resolves to remove it himself.[67] After analyzing the Rock to determine his angle, Darston punches it.[68] While he only leaves a crack in the Rock, he notes that this outcome is still consistent with his calculations.[69] Turning toward Zelda, Darston admits that he is nervous to lose the Goron Chief's 56 Nuggets of Wisdom, but he acknowledges that he cannot continue to rely on them if he wants to become a great chief.[70] Declaring that he should try something different, Darston places the slate into the crack in the Rock.[71] He quotes the final Nugget of Wisdom as he punches the slate, destroying the Rock in the process.[72] Tri expresses concern over Darston, but he assures them that he will be leading in his own way going forward.[73] He also reveals that he has already memorized all of the mottos.[74]

Darston apologizes for taking up Zelda's time and urges her to continue toward the Crater, and Tri notes that his confidence has grown.[75] When Zelda inspects the Rift in the Crater, Darston will catch up to her again. Reasoning that the remaining missing Gorons must be in the Still World, Darston asks how he can help Zelda and Tri.[76] Tri explains that any Gorons inside will be restored once they mend the Rift, but they inform Darston he will be unable to enter with them.[77] Although Darston is disappointed, he still cheers for Zelda and Tri.[78] Tri proceeds to create an entrance to the Rift.[79]

After traversing the Stilled Eldin Volcano, Zelda and Tri reach Eldin Temple, within which Tri can sense the other Tris.[80] Deep in the Temple, Zelda is confronted by a Tecuum that takes the form of Link, throwing Bombs of Might at her. Upon defeating the Echo, Zelda is able to claim the Bombs of Might for herself. In the Temple's Boss Room, Zelda is confronted by Volvagia. Defeating Volvagia frees the Tris trapped within it. Tri then rallies their friends, and they mend the Rift on Eldin Volcano together.

Zelda and Tri meeting Din

When Tri returns to Zelda, they reveal that their friends shared some of their Power with them.[81] A Light begins to shine above Zelda and Tri, and Din appears before them.[82] To reward Zelda for restoring Eldin Volcano and demonstrating her power, Din rewards her with her Sanction.[83] At the end of their conversation, Din tells Zelda to remember that her power will save her one day.[84] Now that they have completed their business in the Still World, Tri states that they should return to Hyrule.[85] Tri Warps Zelda back to the Crater, where they are greeted by Darston. He celebrates the Rift's disappearance and commends Zelda for her work.[86] He then states that they should return to Goron City to check if the missing Gorons have returned as well.[87]

The Gorons celebrating Zelda and Darston

When Zelda and Darston leave Goron City, they are soon after surrounded by a group of Gorons. The Gorons lift the pair above their heads and throw them several times. Afterwards, Darston reveals that he has never been celebrated by the Gorons in such a manner before, and he also expresses how happy he is that everyone is accounted for.[88] He admits that he regretted becoming the Goron chief before he met Zelda and Tri.[89] However, he no longer feels this way, and he is eager to find his way as the chief.[90] He tells Zelda he will continue leading the Gorons, and he thanks her and Tri for all of their help.[91] A voice then calls for Darston from within Goron City.[92] Before he leaves, Darston invites Zelda and Tri to visit Goron City whenever they want.[93]

Once the pair are on their own, Tri comments on how Darston has changed for the better.[94] They are also glad to have mended the Rift and received Din's Sanction.[95][96] If Zelda has not yet completed "A Rift in the Faron Wetlands" and "Rift on Holy Mount Lanayru", Tri will direct Zelda to their respective regions.[97][98][99] After Tri is done speaking, "The Rift on Eldin Volcano" will be finished.

Once "The Rift on Eldin Volcano" has been completed, the Side Quests "Ready? Set? Goron!", "The Flames of Fortune", and "The Great Fairy's Request" all become available. In addition, completing both "The Rift on Eldin Volcano" and "Glide Path" are required in order for the Side Quest "Glide Path Trailblazer" to become available.

3 Tri created an entrance into the rift in Goron City. Save Chief Darston and any other Gorons who were swallowed up by the rift.
4 Apparently there are Gorons who haven't returned, even after the rift was mended. Darston headed out of the city to look for them.
5 Search for Gol and Silv, two Gorons who may know about a shortcut to the crater. Apparently they went to the Rock-Roast Quarry in the northwest and the Lizalfos Burrow to the north.
6
[note 1] 		Elder Gol couldn't recall anything about a shortcut that leads to the crater where the rift is. Try making your way to the Lizalfos Burrow, located north of Goron City.

  24. ↑ Chief! What do we do? We gotta find 'em! — Ondes (Echoes of Wisdom)

  27. ↑ Darston sure seems different from the leaders of the Gerudo and Zora, huh? I wonder where he went... — Tri (Echoes of Wisdom)
  28. ↑ Hmmm... It's go time, but where do I go? I gotta find everyone who's missing, but how? Maybe I should consult the slate again... Think, think, think! — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
  29. ↑ Oh! Uh, hi. Again. — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
  30. ↑ Darston, what's on your slate there? — Tri (Echoes of Wisdom)
    Oh, it's the Goron Chief's 56 Nuggets of Wisdom! They're 56 mottos my father left for me. I kinda... rely on them. — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
  31. ↑ [Your father?] Yeah. My father was the previous chief. He... He's not here anymore. — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
  32. ↑ [Fifty-six mottos?] It's all his advice about how a Goron chief should lead! Without it, I couldn't even sleep at night... — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
  33. ↑ Even with Dad's instructions, I'm still...me. I know I should act more confident now that I'm chief. — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
  34. ↑ Darston? We've been going around mending rifts. We're looking for a big one nearby. Do you know where it might be? — Tri (Echoes of Wisdom)
  35. ↑ The biggest rift is at the crater, but you can't get close 'cause of all the poison gas on the way. — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
  36. ↑ Wait! I once heard there's a shortcut to the crater somewhere. — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
    A shortcut! That's promising... — Tri (Echoes of Wisdom)
  37. ↑ I don't know the details, but Elders Gol and Silv might. Problem is they're both missing. Ohhh... What should we do? — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
  38. ↑ Hang on a sec! Could you two maybe help me look for everyone who's still missing? I know I'm chief, but I don't think I can do this by myself. There's a lotta ground to cover. So the elders were supposedly headed to the Rock-Roast Quarry in the northwest and the Lizalfos Burrow to the north. — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
  39. ↑ [Quarry?] The Rock-Roast Quarry is northwest of here. You'll see a cave entrance up the mountain. That's where we mine the best cuts of the famous Goron delicacy: rock roast! — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
  40. ↑ [Burrow?] The entrance to the Lizalfos Burrow sits on the northern lava lake. It leads to a spooky cave in the volcano where monsters called Lizalfos live. — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
  41. ↑ OK. Let's do this! Um... Where should we start? Maybe Nugget of Wisdom Number 8? No... Not 52 either... Umm... Hmm... — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
  42. ↑ Psst. Zelda. He's doing the thing again. Maybe we should head out first and let him think? — Tri (Echoes of Wisdom)
  43. ↑ Whawazzat? Oh, the shortcut! Now, let me think... Hmm... You know... I can't remember for the life of me! — Gol (Echoes of Wisdom)
  44. ↑ Oh, yes, the shortcut! Now where was it... Hmm... Can't recall a thing, I'm afraid! — Silv (Echoes of Wisdom)
  45. ↑ Y-yeah. I appreciate Elder Gol's kind words, but I don't know if I agree with him... — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
    What do you mean? — Tri (Echoes of Wisdom)
    My father was great at this, but since I've been chief, it's been nothing but chaos. I'm a worrywart, and I've only ever been good at studying. I'd be useless without my slate... I'll never be a great chief like my father. ... — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
  46. ↑ I really thought he'd know, but maybe I'm not cut out for this like Dad was... — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
    What do you mean? — Tri (Echoes of Wisdom)
    Well, I... My father was strong. Dependable. Everyone respected him. — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
    But, Darston, you helped defeat those monsters! — Tri (Echoes of Wisdom)
    Only because I had my dad's slate! I can make calculations, but I don't have the skills to really unite people like he could. I told him I could do this, but...I'm scared I was lyin' to us both. ... — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
  47. ↑ But I don't wanna give up. I'm not going to be the kind of chief my father was, and that's OK. Because I'm not him—I'm me. And I will do everything I can to help everybody. After everything that's happened, it's OK to do things MY way as chief. — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
  48. ↑ Zelda, let's head back to Goron City and speak with the elders again. I've got a hunch talking more with Gol and Silv might jog their memories. Meet ya there! — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
  49. ↑ He seems like he's doing better. — Tri (Echoes of Wisdom)
  50. ↑ Huh? So you don't know where the shortcut is either? — Gol (Echoes of Wisdom)
    Nope. Not a clue. — Silv (Echoes of Wisdom)
    I really thought you would've remembered. Now what? — Gol (Echoes of Wisdom)
    If I don't remember, I don't remember! What else do ya want me to say? — Silv (Echoes of Wisdom)
  51. ↑ Elder Gol. Elder Silv. There's something else I'd like to ask you both. What—exactly—is the shortcut to the crater? — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
    It's a path used by Goron chiefs back in the day. Only after going through its trials and cleansing in the crater could a Goron become chief. The custom faded long before our time though. — Gol (Echoes of Wisdom)
  52. ↑ Purify themselves in the crater to take on the title of chief... So the shortcut is related to the chiefs... But...that's me now, isn't it? Or... Dad? Hmm... — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
    OH! Darston. Your father! That's it! I remember now! Your father once said something about "blocking off the path in my room." — Silv (Echoes of Wisdom)
  53. ↑ Hmm... Come to think of it, I reckon I heard him say something like that too. — Gol (Echoes of Wisdom)
    First I've heard of it—let's go check it out! — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
  54. ↑ It's up here! This way! — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
  55. ↑ Darston! He said something about a portrait! And he's gone. — Silv (Echoes of Wisdom)
  56. ↑ Wow... This room was such a mess. Someone must've tidied it up for me. — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
  57. ↑ See that behind me? It's a portrait of my dad. Doesn't he look impressive? But Dad made me promise I'd change this portrait one day. "You'll have to hang one of yourself when you're chief." So proud. So sure I'd grow up like him. I've left his up, but I did promise, so I have to do it eventually... — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
  58. ↑ But never mind that. For now we gotta find the entrance to that shortcut... — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
  59. ↑ Huh?! Th-the portrait! — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
    Oops... — Tri (Echoes of Wisdom)
    You know, this is just like one of my dad's mottos! "Nuggets of Wisdom, Number 34: A breakdown can lead to a breakthrough!" — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
  60. ↑ But more important, I think you found that shortcut! Let's go! — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
  61. ↑ Looks like the path picks up over there. Now we've just gotta figure out how to get across. — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
  62. ↑ The best saying for a time like this is... Uh... "Nuggets of Wisdom, Number 19: If you can't fly, borrow some wings." Never knew what Dad meant by that one. How do you borrow someone's wings? — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
  63. ↑ Zeldaaaa! That was amazing! You're brilliant! — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
  64. ↑ I don't think I can use that trick, but I'll find a way to catch up with you. Go ahead without me! — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
  65. ↑ Heeey! Zeldaaa! — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
  66. ↑ Whew! I finally managed to catch up... — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
  67. ↑ Uh-oh—there's a giant rock in the way. This path hasn't been used in a while. It probably fell at some point. Hm... Leave this to me! — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
  68. ↑ Based on the size and type of stone... The angle I'd need to use is... OK! Take this! — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
  69. ↑ It didn't work as well as I hoped, but the results still fit my calculations! — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
  70. ↑ Zelda, we haven't known each other long, but this slate—it's like a map from my father. So the idea of not having it around anymore makes me pretty nervous! But with all we've done, I've realized there's times when carvings on a rock aren't enough... ... I think you've helped me figure things out. The words on it are valuable, but I can't be a great chief while I'm staring at a slate. To be a great chief, I have to keep my eyes up to see what works best for me! — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
  71. ↑ So...let's try something different! — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
  72. ↑ "Goron Chief's Nuggets of Wisdom, Number 56!" HAAAAAAAH! "Get creative with what you've got!" — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
  73. ↑ Your slate... Wasn't it really important to you? — Tri (Echoes of Wisdom)
    Yeah. But I'll be all right. I can still use the Nuggets of Wisdom my father left to help me do things my way. The Darston way! — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
  74. ↑ Besides—I've got all my father's mottos memorized by now! — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
  75. ↑ Sorry to keep you waiting on my big insight. The crater's just up ahead! — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
    It seems Darston's really made a breakthrough. It's nice to see him more confident. — Tri (Echoes of Wisdom)
  76. ↑ So this is what you were searching for, huh? The last few missing Gorons must be in there. How can I help? — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
  77. ↑ This looks like the central rift in the area. All the little ones nearby are likely spreading from here. So if your friends were swallowed by any of them, they should return after we mend this one. But, Darston, only the two of use can go inside. You helped so much already. Please wait here. — Tri (Echoes of Wisdom)
  78. ↑ A-all right! I wish I could do more, but... Princess Zelda. Tri. I know you can do this! — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
  79. ↑ I'll open the rift entrance now... Stand back, Zelda. — Tri (Echoes of Wisdom)
  80. ↑ We're closer to my friends—I can sense it. No turning back now. — Tri (Echoes of Wisdom)
  81. ↑ My friends shared some of their power with me. — Tri (Echoes of Wisdom)
  82. ↑ Priestess. Your power has freed this land, which was swallowed by nothingness. I am the goddess Din, one of the three who created your world. — Din (Echoes of Wisdom)
  83. ↑ You have demonstrated true power, thus I grant my sanction unto you. — Din (Echoes of Wisdom)
  84. ↑ Remember this. Your power will one day be your salvation. — Din (Echoes of Wisdom)
  85. ↑ There's not really anything else to do in the Still World for now... So let's go back to your world, Zelda. — Tri (Echoes of Wisdom)
  86. ↑ Zelda! You're incredible! The giant rift! It's gone! — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
  87. ↑ Hopefully everyone is back now too! Let's go see! — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
  88. ↑ Wow! That's the first time I've been the guy tossed in the air! I'm just so glad that everyone's back! — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
  89. ↑ Zelda, Tri... Before I met you, I actually regretted becoming chief. It felt like a mistake. — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
  90. ↑ But I don't think it was. I'm just finding my own way of doing things! — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
  91. ↑ I know you'll have to go mend more rifts soon, but I'm gonna keep leading my people here. Thank you so much for all of your help! — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
  92. ↑ Daaarston! Come over here, will ya? — Goron (Echoes of Wisdom)
    Sounds like I'm needed! Coming! — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
  93. ↑ Come back to Goron City whenever you like! You're always welcome here! — Darston (Echoes of Wisdom)
  94. ↑ Darston's changed a lot from when we met him. He had so much trouble deciding things before. Now he's confident and his friends are smiling. I guess he's happy to be relied on! — Tri (Echoes of Wisdom)
  95. ↑ I'm glad we mended the Eldin Volcano rift. And we received a sanction from the goddess Din. — Tri (Echoes of Wisdom)
  96. ↑ I'm so glad we managed to mend the Eldin Volcano rift. And now we have that sanction we received from the goddess here! — Tri (Echoes of Wisdom)
  97. ↑ That leaves the Holy Mount Lanayru and Faron Wetlands rifts. Let's get going, Zelda! — Tri (Echoes of Wisdom)
  98. ↑ This just leaves the Holy Mount Lanayru rift. Only one left! Let's get going, Zelda! — Tri (Echoes of Wisdom)
  99. ↑ This just leaves the Faron Wetlands rift. Only one left! Let's get going, Zelda! — Tri (Echoes of Wisdom)
