Summary: Rauru has perfect confidence that you have a purpose to fulfill.


Your own life, in your own era, seems so far away now.

Together, once, you and Link worked together to seal away the Calamity Ganon. For you, that's all in the past.

For this incarnation of Hyrule, though, that's in a future that's far, far removed. Here and now, how much it all seems like a child's dream, all the things that you went through while waiting for Link to recover. How silly, and almost inconsequential, it all seems.

And how easily all that you knew can be undone, thousands of years before it will ever occur.

Ever since you were dropped into the past, you've wondered what you are doing here, and how you will go home. If, of course, the latter is even possible.

Rauru has perfect confidence that you have a purpose to fulfill. What that could be seems impossible to discern.

When the Master Sword, corrupted and decayed, makes its way into your possession, you suddenly find yourself holding your cynosure. No matter what sacrifices are required of you, the Sword will guide you back home again.

It's only a matter of Time.
