so I finally obtained the last memory for the captured memories quest. therefore I now have all 17 of them. complete. And I just want to jump in here for a second and just. Scream. Cry. Drop to my knees in the middle of a Walmart and die (like link hahaha too soon ueue) sooo..
his tattered clothing. the stains that are most likely mixed with wet dirt and dried blood. the clear exhaustion in his posture by holding on with the scarce amount of strength he has left. the way he forcefully lifts himself up with every last ounce of strength for the sake of protecting her. even if it costs his life. he stands before her. before the danger. becomes her shield. after months of standing behind her as her personal knight.
and just the guttural scream she let out here was just. wow. she refuses to stand behind. to stay behind. all her friends are gone. and in her mind she blames herself for it all. for being left behind from all the champions’ progress. from his progress. but no more. now she stands before him. shields him. she will not allow another one of her friends to fall due to her incompetence. no more.
listen. imagine seeing the stoic but kind knight who always protected you from harms way before thinking of his own safety. that has stayed by your side even during your worst tempers and sorrows. fallen. the rain falling on his battered clothing and soaking them beyond repair. the raindrops on his cheek and hair making the died blood and dirt smudging his features more, his hair damp and tangled. the master sword in an almost painful grip as if it were his lifeline. and it was.
gods this shot. this one right here. his grip never loosens. but his breaths stagger. his heart slows. the exhaustion of fighting for not only your life but most importantly her life from evening to midnight. a cruel way to loose oneself is by the fate of saving the lives of hundreds in exchange for your own demise while doing so. but he simply must make sure she is safe. must look into her eyes at least once before he feels his eyes give to the very darkness he gave his entire life to destroy. and my god i can’t imagine how Zelda must feel. to loose her last and only hope. but to also loose a friend she had learned to cherish along the way. Now left desperately searching for any ounce of life left inside his lithe body with her hands and sobs to his chest.
“princess are you alright?” except that’s the last thing on her mind at the moment. isn’t it? when she immediately redirects them to him and risking it all for the slim chance of the possibility of saving him.
her tone is so assertive here. He is her priority right now. Wow.
i just. have no words. her tone. was downright threatening. so powerful. the delivery of this line. impeccable. made shivers run down my spine just hearing it. she will have her swordsman saved. zero questions or doubts. an absolutely breathtaking cutscene.
Okay I’ll shut up now haha but god this scene racked my very core. Beautifully made and executed with the music and lighting. the tone and ambiance the voice acting the small details of their movements. yup this one has won my favorite memory.
little bonus of me trying not to burst into tears as Zelda’s horse nudges link with his snout after seeing the memory ugh im in absolute shambles over this game.

Ooooh, a volcano!!!!
Eh- well, yes, but-
"WHAT, WHAT, WHAT?!?!"
FOR HYLIA'S- -NG- THERE'S A CLIFF, THERE!!
"SO?!"
YOU WERE HEADED STRAIGHT FOR IT!
"Of course, I was! That's where the best view'll be!"
I can't have you hurtling to your death right out of the gate!
"Why not?"
Wh-?! How can you say that?
"Well, why does it matter to you so much?"
I... I ought not-
"WOAH!"
"...Woooow..."
...Hyrule is beautiful, isn't it?
"HELL TO THE YES!"
...
Ooo, that's a pissy silence if I've ever heard one.
...Not that I know if I've ever heard one before.
Though you'd think if I'd never heard one, I wouldn't recognize it.
...Unless I'm delusional. I am hearing voices in my head. Keep this in mind, Link. Trust nothing. NOTHING. Be suspicious. Of yourself. Which of course means being suspicious of everything, because I depend on me to know what I'm looking at and... smelling and stuff. You think you smell apples, Link? Better be careful. Could be poison ivy. Where would you be if you put THAT in your mouth?
...She's still quiet.
I didn't take her seriously enough, did I? Aw. I don't feel like I'm some kind of insensitive jerk but maybe I am? What can I do what can I do think think think think think Link heheheeee rhyme.
OOOH! Her voice is pretty!
"Your voice is pretty, Voice-Lady!"
I... once again feel I must remind you I can hear you think.
"Yeah... I... kind of don't know how to handle that."
Perhaps frankness would suffice.
Suffice? That's not good enough. Nope. Sufficing is like... when you turn that orange over and the bottom half of the peel is all green and kind of fuzzy but you eat the tippy top of the part that isn't anyway because you're really starving.
...And then you become violently ill.
"Maybe. Maybe not."
Goddess. Had I known HALF of this went on in his head...
Wow. Did you know I could hear that?
...
...Don't be too disappointed, Link. So, she didn't know you that well. I guess. It's not... you know. It's not a big deal. You'd already figured you weren't married anyway. Guess not lovers either. I'm sure I'd've been babbling this sort of stuff if we were. I feel like a babbler.
PFF!
"...Huh."

Have you ever tried/managed to get a horse into the desert?
I've never tried to get a horse in the desert. A long while back I saw a video of someone attempting it and the horse just disappeared as soon as the player pushed it beyond a certain point. Because of that and whatever else I read about it, it seemed to me that horses don't work right in the desert, so I never attempted it.
I have run around with a bear in the desert though!
I also took my friendly little pal to Gerudo Town and scared everyone silly!
Here's a present for you, Riju!
