Zelda's Awakening - Recovered Memory #17 - The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild

Hello my friends!

Link continues to fight, protecting Zelda from a pack of pursuing Guardians, but collapses in exhaustion, terribly wounded. As the Guardians close in, Zelda stands against them and finally unleashes her sealing power.

This is the seventeenth memory. It is a memory you can unlock after you have found the 12 memories within the album on the Sheikah Slate. This memory is located west of Fort Hateno, east of Dueling Peaks Stable.

The fact that Link took his somewhat last look at Zelda making sure she’s still safe and alive eventhough he’s struggling... it’s just so powerful.

[laylover]

The fact that she stood in the way of the Guardian beam, without knowing she even had the power to stop it like that in the first place. Damn man. This is by far the best memory.

[Hei_Darkfire]

Damn this scene hits you everytime like a ton of bricks...
Gotta love this cutscene though... It's the first real time they've shown that Link is not an invincible hero like he's always portrayed, and shows that he is just as human as everyone else.

[winxwest]

Gotta appreciate how well they portray link as weak and dying while not having a drop of blood to keep it pg. That takes skill

[RBL]

His left arm is blood soaked, he has a wound on his right knee and you can hear his breathing is labored probably from exhaustion and pain yet he still staggers to his feet in an attempt to protect her but can’t even lift his sword. When she steps in front of him you see he falls back down on his knee resting on his sword again before he collapses once he sees she is safe.

It honestly makes me tear up when Zelda pushes Link out of the way and screams “No!” The voice acting for that was honestly amazing, I could really feel the pain in her voice.

[rileywilliams]

It's amazing to learn Fi is still there after all those years. She was able to bring Zelda some hope even if only briefly.

[Davechow]

1:23 “Link you’re gonna be just fine.”

Link’s face is like, “ Girl I am not fine.”

[faeriecat]

zelda’s lullaby playing in the background gives me chills every goddamn time it makes this scene all the more powerful

[vanessarahimi]

Zelda cries in Link's arms, and Link dies/passes out in Zelda's arms. Why does Nintendo have to play our feeling like that, genius bastards

[jackson]

Good thing neither of those guys tripped getting him to the Great Plateau!!

[ellalinko]

And from that day Link and Zelda has guardian ptsd.
Even a nap for 100 years couldn’t stop the fear.

An ancient hero, a Calamity appears, Now resurrected after 10, 000 years.

Her appointed knight gives his life, Shields her figure, and pays the price.

The princess's love for her fallen knight awakens her power And within the castle the Calamity is forced to cower.

But the knight survives! In the Shrine of Resurrection he sleeps, Until from his healing dream he leaps!

For fierce and deadly trials await. To regain his strength. Fulfill his fate.

To become a hero once again! To wrest the princess from evil's den.

The hero, the princess - hand in hand - Must bring light back to this land.

I like this version of Zelda’s Lullaby that plays after her powers awaken. It fits very well with this scene. The music in this game is so underrated.

[zestfulmaple]

Ill admit, Zelda's voice actress can be a BIT wooden sometimes, but when she's good, shes REALLY good

[TheRegulus]

Can't believe so much time has passed since the game came out.

In all this time, in every cutscene, Link was portrayed as something of an unstoppable force with courage fueling every strike of his sword. Confident. Focused. Precise. Always on guard to keep Zelda safe. In all that time we forget, and Zelda's voice resonated in my mind that day to what she told him when he took down 3 Lynels and multiple other enemies.

As brave as you are, that does not make you immortal.

That courage however held his crumbling body together. Through pain of the wounds inflicted on him. Through the despair and hopelesness Zelda felt that day. Himself and his sword were the only thing keeping her from harm. Had Link lost heart that day, I don't think Zelda would have ever awakened her power.

While he had personality and shown bravery multiple throughout this franchise, I personally think Link's courage was never portrayed as strongly as in Breath of the Wild's scenes, especially against such overwhelming odds tied against him. And seeing Zelda break after she finally unlocked her power through what she thought was his life with that final look he gifted her, one of apology and relief that she would be fine...

Truly a great scene and one of my favorites in this game.

[danielprokopius]

I always like to think that at 1:25 when Link looks at Zelda one last time, he’s saying “I’m sorry I have to leave you now too, but stay strong, and have courage. You didn’t fail anybody” as a last goodbye.

[diyarts]

The look on Zelda's face after Link passes out breaks my heart.

[jenntall]

Hearing Fi’s sound effect coming from the Master Sword really hit my heart for some reason
