From the stable, I made my way to the Castle Town Prison Ruins, where I planned to swim across the moat to an opening I had spotted during an earlier exploration. As I approached the castle, an unexpected sight stopped me in my tracks—a surge of Calamity Ganon’s
Leaving Zora’s Domain behind, I made my way across Hyrule Field, cautiously navigating the open expanse. It wasn’t long before I encountered a handful of Guardians, their eerie, mechanical screeches piercing the air as they locked onto me. The battles were intense, but with the Master Sword’s
Before me is an underground city that appears long abandoned. Derelict buildings in close proximity line a narrow and twisted street that is filled with trash. It is dark and gloomy save for some flickering neon signs amongst the broken structures. There are two mouse like creatures with a single
From the Landsuther Mines, we head to Fafnir’s storeroom, following the tip from Sindri. We’re hoping to find resources the hoarding dwarf may have collected during his travels across realms. Fafnir had repurposed an abandoned temple to store his treasures. On our way through the woods to the
Upon reaching the mines, we find Brok set up outside. He explains that he wants us to locate his dwarf friend, Andvari, who wears a green ring on his finger. As we enter, Atreus eagerly begins checking bodies for the ring. I tell him I don't care about
With Mimir in hand, we begin our descent down the mountain, finding a mystic gateway that takes us back to Týr’s temple. From there, we take a boat toward the Witch’s Cove. Along the way, we notice that the water level in the lake has dropped—the World
I set out for East Reservoir Lake to meet Prince Sidon, ready to face the Divine Beast Vah Ruta—and whatever destiny awaited me beyond. When I arrived at the East Reservoir Lake, I saw Prince Sidon standing at the edge of the dock, his gaze fixed on the looming
Since it was getting late and I was exhausted from my journey to the city—not to mention the events of the evening—I decided to head to the inn. On the way, I chatted with a few Zora and happened to meet an old priest named Kapson. He shared
In the morning, I saddle up Phoenix for the long journey to Wetland Stable. As I approach the familiar fork in the road at the Breach of Demise—the one I’d normally take south to avoid Hyrule Castle—I make a bold decision: to take a shortcut… directly past
Upon arriving at the stable, I find three researchers deep in discussion about the extinction of the Leviathans. They’re debating theories and searching for evidence to support their claims. Recognizing me as an experienced traveler, they ask if I’ve ever come across any Leviathan Great Skeletons and offer
The next day, I take the road toward Rito Stable, clearing out Skywatcher Guardians and defeating a Stone Talus along the way. I also visit one of the Great Fairy Sisters to enhance my gear, making me feel even more prepared for the challenges ahead. When I arrive at the
I leave Lurelin Village with a newfound sense of determination and purpose—to seek out all the remaining shrines scattered across Hyrule. My next destination is Highland Stable, and I decide to travel there via the rugged coastline of Martha’s Landing Beach. The area is crawling with Lizalfos and

From Akkala, I head south toward Wetland Stable, traveling through the Lanayru Wetlands, where I encounter and defeat two Hinox. Afterward, I pass through Kakariko Village to visit Cotera, the Great Fairy, to enhance my gear. Feeling more prepared, I spend some time near Dueling Peaks Stable, harvesting swift violets

Leaving Tarrey Town, I followed a lead from a traveler at East Akkala Stable, who mentioned a mysterious spring west of the stable. My search led me to a massive quarry, guarded by three menacing Guardian Skywatchers patrolling the skies. Carefully, Phoenix and I ascended a cliff overlooking the quarry.

Upon reaching the Akkala Ancient Tech Lab, I cautiously approached the entrance, opening the heavy door to find the same malfunctioning machine I’d noticed during a previous visit. As I stepped closer to investigate, I suddenly sensed movement behind me. Spinning around, I saw two figures dressed in the

Past the gate was the entrance to the snowfield leading up the mountain. Guarding the road was none other than a fearsome Lynel. Normally, I’d have avoided such a confrontation, opting for a longer, safer route. But this time was different. Armed with new strength and confidence, I decided

Early the next morning, I went straight to the Hateno Tech Lab. To my surprise, they had already received word from Impa and were prepared for my arrival. What caught me even more off guard was that the director of the lab wasn’t the older assistant I expected—it

The next morning, I approached the guards stationed at what I assumed was Impa’s home. I moved cautiously, unsure how they’d react, but as soon as they spotted my Sheikah Slate, their demeanor shifted. They quickly apologized and stepped aside, allowing me to pass without question. As I

At the lab, the elderly Sheikah scientist confirms my suspicion: my slate is incomplete. However, fully restoring it requires approval from Impa, the elder in Kakariko Village, to ignite their furnace and power their instruments.

I travel to Central Hyrule, sneaking past mechanical Guardians as I attempt to activate Central Tower.
