[Rauru's smile fades slightly in response, where he hangs in the air before him.] When it vanished here at the Temple, I had my suspicions. But I am not all-seeing -- I had no way of knowing her intentions with the Sword. More of a hope, I suppose.

[In life he had never come to a solution on why Zelda had been sent to them, and even when the sword disappeared, he could only speculate on how she might intend to restore it.]

The only true information I possessed was Zelda's unwavering faith in you. In that regard, I chose to place my faith in the both of you, as well.

comes back to this now that i have finished the game!

[ Considering his answer, Link looks down at the Sword again. Its polished blade shines beautifully in the crisp morning sunlight, reflecting the blue expanse above. Green zonai gylphs glow softly along its length, an imprint of the material fused and absorbed within it. ]

Zelda gave up everything to return this Sword to me. [ he says, softly. ] Not just to me... to us. To everyone, to Hyrule itself...

[ With a sigh, Link returns the Master Sword to its scabbard. As he does, his eyes linger on the zonai ornamentation winding around his arm — Rauru's arm — and the black skin underneath it. The rings around each of his fingers glow with the power of the awakened Sages. ]

It's only a matter of time before he faces the Demon King. But... what's going to happen to Zelda, when it's all over...?
