Can we analyse Tulin for a bit?

Apart from being the keet birb boy, perhaps what makes his character so enthralling is how it so brilliantly reflects and offers commentary on the influences that have shaped him.

Whether that be Revali, his father Teba, and ESPECIALLY Link. Hell, it's no wonder that Link & Tulin have garnered such a sibling dynamic. Tulin essentially IS Link, from a time before the burden of responsibility and pain caused Link to cave in on himself pre-Breath of the Wild.

Right down to the veteran warrior father figure (Link's father was captain of the guard) and their acceptance of a newfound legacy out of forthright integrity. Tulin, at this point in his life, has yet to give himself away until there's nothing of him left to give, and let's pray he never needs to.

But Tulin would do that in a heartbeat, if called upon. He is very much his father's son.

You can see it in how archtypical childish spunk is tempered, like steel, by Teba's down-to-earth bluntness and sheer work ethic.

(BTW I wonder if Link sees his own father in Teba? That'd check out.)

But what caught me most pleasantly off-guard is Tulin's skepticism, which has become one of his most compelling traits for me. It's not something you would expect.

He did not believe that the Stormwind Ark existed, and while ultimately proven wrong, it frankly wasn't an illogical assumption to make. Tulin clearly thought through that opinion. He'd also grown frustrated that the Rito placed their faith on a songbook miracle — a eucatastrophe, if you will — instead of something more concrete like personal skill or, say, Link's whole-ass existence.

The second Link arrived and offered his aid, Tulin accepted his help without hesitation. He turned his skepticism inward to reevaluate his own tenets. And it's as a duo that they brought about said eucatastrophe through no one's strength but their own. They are siblings, Your Honor. Aryll 2.0

(If Revali had been blessed with a support network saying "it's okay to accept help. no man is an island," doubtless he still would have perished in Vah Medoh. But there would be less of an ego to shatter. He would have faced death with less blind panic and more dignity. And most importantly, he'd have other people to bolster the wind beneath his wings during his short life. (At the very least, Revali would not have as big an ass not be as big an ass, just as Tulin would be a different person without his family.)

dammit quaquaval you have RUINED me

Also, one thing that everyone seems to miss is just how deceptively intelligent Tulin turns out to be. This kid fuckin' knows his stuff. His mastery of aerodynamics beyond the instinctual is almost on par with Revali at such a young age. And how many precision headshots has his avatar saved your ass with, don't lie.

He somehow managed to follow his father back through time. Tulin can see Koroks.

It's not the same kind of passion-fuelled intellect as, say, Zelda has. More of an unyeilding conviction to learn all he can and put it into practice. About as understated a quality as Yunobo's inexplicable business acumen and economic sense.

As his mother Saki put it, for Tulin to develop as an individual, he needs to experience more of reality and its hardships. Shooting bullseyes and improving one's flying prowess / wind magic can't contend with genuine combat. True to her word, Tulin had to experience mistakes firsthand, and critically examine his own naïve ways of thinking in order to take those necessary steps.

...

So then, uh, is it wrong for me to wish something horrible upon him, if only to witness the positive character growth that springs from it? Tulin isn't the sort who'll shatter under pressure, like Revali did at the end of his life, or like Link did under the weight of expectation. Buckle, yes — but not break. Tulin's steadfast conviction, inherited from his father and guided by the people he loves, would assuredly see him through.

In any event, his Hero's Journey isn't close to over. I'd be curious to see Tulin at its conclusion.

tl;dr I wanna Emesis Blue his bitch-ass, AITA?

The TOTK post credit/epilogue scene really ended the “Wild” era off on a bittersweet but still very positive note. On one hand, Mineru, who was Zelda’s great great great (etc.)aunt and older sister figure finally passes on, leaving her without a mentor or familiar figure to look up to, besides Impa but tbh she probably doesn’t have much time left either. But on the other hand, the new sages and Link band together give their vow to help protect Hyrule and stand by Zelda’s side as she finally accepts that she’s ready to become Queen. Hyrule has a bright future now and ready to be rebuilt and protected by these new Leaders. They’re gonna be okay. And to me, that’s beautiful.

#also that shot of Zelda stepping forward while Zelda’s lullaby is playing is beautiful #the sages don’t have the same feel as the champions but I still love them #tears of the kingdom #the legend of zelda #tears of the kingdom spoilers #totk spoilers #I really hope in the next game we get to see some evidence of their effort #princess zelda #zelink #zelda: tears of the kingdom #link #link x zelda #zelda #Sidon #tulin of rito village #totk riju #ok well Link just stood there but you know what I mean

Me: After having Link going alone for so long in BOTW I really love that the sage spirits are going around with him in his journey.

Also Me:

Yunobo you are an idiot.

Riju I bonded with you because I like your power the most. I wish someday you would be CLOSE ENOUGH TO ME to actually use it.

To be honest I only use Sidon's power when I am collecting stuff and his big ass steps in the way.

Not you Tulin we are happy that you are here.

Second one done 💀

My back and hands hurt oouuuughghh

Anyway I! Hate the rito set pants. Green on tan is very hard to get right and I am not super happy about this. Also if some parts look lazy it's because I was actively falling asleep while drawing. As soon as I post this I will pass out for at least 10 hours

So! Here's Tulin and Zelda! I've never properly drawn a Rito before so uhmmm?? Hopefully he doesn't look to bad. Changed his design judt a bit :]. Also Zelda rito set 👍

I see your Tulin acting as a little brother/cousin to Link and I raise you Teba and Saki seeing Link as their own son and including him in their family.

Sometimes a family is Two Rito’s and their Rito and Hylian son, I don’t make the rules.

For any of you wondering, this is what it feels like to play Tears of the Kingdom with Tulin following you around. It is a nightmare and I feel like I am babysitting for FREE
