"Link.. you may not yet be at a point where you have recovered your power or all of your memories... But courage need not be remembered... For it is never forgotten."

"It's been three long years since The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild rewired the connections inside my brain. It messed me up. In some ways you might say it ruined video games. Other video games. [...] It's not God of Wars fault that it's not Breath of the Wild. It's not Spider-Mans fault that it's not Breath of the Wild. I spent a good 10 hours playing Red Dead Redemption 2, hoping it was Breath of the Wild, then eventually gave up. No one's fault. Sorry, other video games. You tried, but you weren't Breath of the Wild."

"[Laughs] Well done young one. Now the time has come to show you who I truly am. I was King Rhoam Bosphoramus Hyrule. I was... the last leader of Hyrule. A kingdom which no longer exists. [Reveals his spirit form to Link] The Great Calamity was merciless. It devastated everything in its path, lo, a century ago."

"This one here is called the silent princess. It's a rare, endangered species. Despite our efforts, we can't get them to grow domestically yet. The princess can only thrive out here in the wild. All that we can hope... is that the species will be strong enough to prosper, on its own."

"All my friends... the entire kingdom... my father most of all... I tried, and I failed them all.. I left them... all to die."

"Everything–everything I've done up until now... It was all for nothing... So I really am just a failure! Our only hope for defeating Ganon is lost because I couldn't harness this cursed power!"

"How... How did it come to this?"
