Link

Intro Link is Princess Zelda's appointed knight primarily because he demonstrated exceptional bravery and combat prowess, particularly during a test involving a malfunctioning Guardian. He was also chosen as one of the Champions, destined to pilot the Divine Beasts against Calamity Ganon. While Zelda initially resented his appointment due to her own struggles with her power, their relationship evolved as Link consistently proved his loyalty and dedication, ultimately leading to Zelda embracing her role and unlocking her sealing power. He was very skill at a young age, including deflecting a Guardian's blast with a pot lid, a feat that caught the attention of King Rhoam. Zelda initially viewed Link's appointment as a symbol of her own perceived failures in harnessing her powers, leading to resentment towards him. Despite Zelda's initial feelings, Link's unwavering loyalty and protection, even in the face of her hostility. She desperately spends hours praying to the goddess to try to access her power, while Link has already obtained all things that even a skilled royal guard couldn't do. Link's dedication and vulnerability, particularly during a moment of despair, ultimately helped Zelda realize her own power and unlock her sealing abilities.
