After their adventure in the desert, they were soon headed north towards the wooded areas of the wilderness.

"If we keep headed north, we should reach the Rito Village soon." Link said.

"I cant believe this will be my first time seeing actual Rito. Real, live Bird People." Hope said.

"Yes. The Rito do take on the appearance of birds. They fly just like them and are very skilled archers." Cabbage said.

"It makes sense. Vah Medoh is a large flying Divine Beast modeled after a bird." Sakura said.

"Yes. In fact, the Rito named Vah Medoh after a legendary Rito from the Era of the Great Sea. The Earth Sage, Medli." Cabbage said.

"I wonder if Link knew the Rito Champion 100 years ago?" Toma said.

"Why not? We've been to the three other villages and he's known three already. The Zora champion, Mipha. The Goron Champion, Daruk. Even the Gerudo Champion, Urbosa." Ichiro said.

"That being said, there's reason to believe that Link knows… Or I guess I should say, knew, the Rito Champion as well." Regal said.

They soon heard a loud screech as they saw a large beast flying in the sky.

"Divine Beast Vah Medoh." Cabbage said.

"How the heck are we supposed to get to that thing? Its 30,000 feet in the air!" Fuyuhiko said.

"We'll just have to figure something out in the village." Zoro said.

"Good point." Sectonia said. "Some of us can fly, but we wouldn't make it that high."

They soon arrived to a village built around a rock pillar as various bird like humanoids walked around doing their own business.

"So these are the Rito." Lloyd said. "A lot more bird-like than I expected."

"The only bird people I've heard about are harpies, and they can claw your eyes out if provoked." David said.

"But… These guys won't do that, right?" Zelos asked.

"They look pretty peaceful. Let's just go to the elder.' Jexi said.

Heading up the circling wooden stairs, they approach an owl like Rito.

"Hmm. We don't get much of...a Sheikah Slate? But the champions died out along with Master Revali. Then...Hoo! Wonderful! Welcome Champion descendant! I am Kaneli, the elder of Rito Village." he said.

"It's nice to meet you, Elder." David said with a bow.

"We're planning to go all the way up into the sky and take back Divine Beast Vah Medoh from Calamity Ganon." Hope said.

"You knew what I was about to ask. I tried explaining this to those Rito Warriors but they engaged Medoh anyway. Both Teba and Harth tried to battle it but to no avail. Harth was injured but Teba escaped unharmed. I fear he may try to fight Medoh on his own. Please. Find Teba. I am sure if you work together, you can stop Medoh." Kaneli said.

"If he's as stubborn as we think he is, then convincing him won't be easy." Jude said.

"Nonetheless, he's going to get himself killed if it goes on." David said. "We'd better hurry and find him, then."

"Where can we find Teba? Any ideas, Kaneli?" Toma asked.

"Hmm, most likely at the base of the Hebra Mountains, at the Flight Range. Its where all Rito warriors train, as set up by Master Revali long ago." Kaneli said.

"Revali… is he the Rito Champion?" Hope asked.

"Yes. He was." Kaneli said.

Link then looked out the window to a flight deck next to the house as he focused on it before a memory flashed through his mind.

Flashback…

Near that same deck flew up a black feathered Rito before Link.

"Impressive, is it not? An updraft created just by me. It is amazing I know. Very few can achieve a total mastery of the sky. Yet I have made it an art of creating an updraft that allows me to soar and lifts me higher than ever before. Its considered to be quite the masterpiece of aerial techniques even among the Rito. With proper utilization of my aerial skills. I see no reason why we can't easily disperse with Ganon."

"Don't act so superior, Revali. You know what they saw about those that brag." Link said.

"Ah, I don't brag. I tell the truth. But let us not forget I am the most skilled archer of all the Rito. Yet despite these truths, I am to merely assist you. All because you happen to have that darkness sealing sword on your back. I mean, its just...asinine. You think you can prove me wrong? Maybe we should just settle this one on one. But where? I know. Up there!" Revali said pointing to Medoh.

"What? Are you crazy?" Link asked.

"Ah, that's right. I had forgotten that as a Hylian, you have no way of getting up there on your own." Revali said as he quickly to the sky. "Good luck sealing the darkness!"

End flashback…

"Revali...you always were a bit of a showoff." Link said chuckling to himself.

"Something up, Link?" Presea asked.

"Just remember this show off I used to know." Link said laughing to himself.

David smiled at that. "I'm sure we all have someone like that at one point in our lives."

"Let's head off to the Flight Range. We have to talk with Teba." Damien said.

They traveled further north to where the snow was falling before reaching a wooden structure where seeing on a takeoff deck was a white feathered Rito fiddling with a bow.

Teba

Rito Warrior

"Yeah? I don't know you and I'm actually kind of busy here. So its best to leave me be." he said.

"I'm afraid that's not going to happen." David said. "The Elder asked us to come find you."

"Just like him to trust anyone that walks into our village. Look, you seem like all right people so let me make one thing clear: I'm not going anywhere. As a Rito Warrior, I can't rest until my people are safe." Teba said.

"As it turns out, we're after the Divine Beast as well." Sectonia said. "The Elder suggested that we would work together."

"Hold on a second, Sectonia." David said. "If we have followed the pattern until now, there is an artifact that we need to find first."

"Hmm." Teba said before seeing Vera and her bow. "I see your friend is an archer. All right, let's make a bet of it. There are targets all over here. If she can take out 10 of them...in the air...then we team up. If not, then you leave me be." Teba said.

"Sounds fair." Vera said.

"This will be tough… Leanne, Vashyron and i are good at mid-air shooting but Vera cant exactly shoot in mid-air. Can she?" Zephyr asked.

"Not on my own, but if I were to use the Paraglider in combination with the bow, the task will be easy to complete." Vera said.

She jumped off the platform as she took flight with the paraglider as she fired arrows all around at the targets. She hit all 10 in good succession.

"She's….a skilled archer. I'll be honest, when you guys showed up, I thought someone was pulling a prank. But I believe you all are the real deal. You must have seen a battle or two." Teba said.

"I have." Vera said. "Plus, I've used it in action before."

"She's not used to combat situations, so we gave her a bow to defend herself." Jude said.

"She's been doing well with it since then." David said.

"Because I'm not as attuned to combat as everyone else, I'm mostly with them for support." Vera said.

"Is that right? Well, if we're going to take down Medoh, it's now or never. Using the updrafts here can lift you into the same air range as Medoh. It'll also give Vera free range to hit its cannons." Teba said.

"We thank you, Teba. We will not disappoint." Vera said.

"Then let's get going." Teba said as he took flight as the others used their paragliders to catch the draft and follow after him. "Hey, just curious, but why are you doing all of this?"

"For the Rito, of course." Jexi said.

"But trust us, you wouldn't believe the real reason, even if we told you." David said.

They were soon high enough to see Medoh as well as its four barrier generating cannons.

"There's the target. Now, here's the plan. See those cannons? I'll draw their fire while Vera fires away at those cannons with Bomb Arrows." Teba said.

"Understood!" Vera said.

"We're counting on you!" David said.

They soon approached Medoh as it began firing its cannons as Teba drew its fire away from the group. While he did that, Vera fired at each of the cannons with Bomb Arrows in order to try and get its barrier to open up. Soon after the four cannons were destroyed, the barrier soon shut down.

"Nice work! Medoh is history!" Teba said as they began descending towards it as Teba groaned in pain. "Bad news. Looks like I got hit pretty good back there. I think...I need to get back to the Flight Range."

"I'll take him back to the village. See you guys when you reawaken the Divine Beast." Jude said.

"Will do. See you when we get back, Jude." David said.

"You guys got this." Teba said with a thumbs up before flying back to the Flight Range with Jude.

The group soon landed on Medoh as Link put his Sheikah Slate on a terminal turning it on.

"Well, I've seen that face before. I had a feeling you would come back eventually, but making me wait 100 years seems a bit...indulgent." a voice echoed.

"Revali…" Link said.

"You're here to wrest control of Medoh away from Ganon, correct? If so, you'll need to locate the five terminals all over Medoh...if you can that is." Revali said.

"Okay, did he seriously just mock us?" Zelos asked.

"Yes. I did." Revali said.

"And now we're talking to a spirit. These adventures just get stranger and stranger by the day." David said. "Not that I'm complaining. That's what makes it exciting."

"In any case, let's get to work on the terminals." Presea said.

It wasn't long before the group got to work moving all over Medoh and activating the 5 terminals.

"Well, what do you know? That's all the terminals. Now all that remains is to activate the Main Control Unit." Revali said.

As soon as they approached it on top of Medoh's back, Link pressed his Sheikah Slate onto it as Malice began pouring out of it, soon taking on the form of a bizarre creature with a Guardian Laser Cannon for an arm.

Scourge of Divine Beast Vah Medoh

Windblight Ganon

"So… This thing did Revali in." David said as he prepared his weaponry.

"Yes. That thing plays dirty. It defeated me 100 years ago...but only because I was winging it." Revali said.

"Once we're done here, we can besiege Hyrule Castle and Kick Calamity Ganons ass!" Luffy said.

"I can't believe I'm actually saying this...but you must avenge me, Link!" Revali said.

A loud roar was then heard as they looked up to see a white tiger in a suit along with a monkey wielding a polearm.

"The Tiger and the Monkey. Well this isnt an odd combination." Hope said.

"What is so odd about it?" Tiger asked.

"Ook, Oook! We are simply doing our jobs. And those...happen to be making you split life itself." Monkey said.

"Bring it, kitty and chimpanzee! Then all thats left is Ryuji!" Hope said.

"Also the dog!" Monkey said.

"Growr! Enough talk! We fight now!" Tiger said as he pounced. "Beast man Arts: Tiger Trap!" he shouted slashing through a number of the members as he charged ferociously.

"You'll need more than that to beat us!" Rainbow said.

"Oooh, OOoh! How about this?" Monkey asked leaping with his polearm. "Monkey Beastman Spear Style: Monkey See, Monkey Do!" he said leaping over Rainbow before knocking her down from behind.

"That's no way to treat a lady!" Sectonia said as she casted Thunder Blade.

"Its a battle of Artes, huh? Fine with me!" Indigo said hefting Daruks blade, Boulder Breaker, over her shoulder. "Hah! I can lift this baby easy with my Guts Armor! Now for a fire Arte!" Indigo said as a magic circle appears below her. "O infernal emperor, arise from the depths of the earth... Eruption!" Magma starts to pulse from under the enemies.

"Ooooh, aaaah! Hot hot hot!" Monkey said.

"Yeah! Take that!" Indigo said.

"Whoa, not bad kid! Was that your first time using Eruption?" Zelos asked.

"Yeah. Pretty awesome." Indigo said.

But the Tiger just roared as the fire didn't seem to phase him at all.

"Looks like Tiger's strong against fire attacks." Hope said.

"Thats one cool kitty cat." Yang said. "Get it?"

"No time for jokes, Yang! Hey, try a different type of arte!" Hope said.

"Your artes are useless against me. I am a master of the Beastman Arts. I have been trained to resist all elements!" Tiger said.

"Alright then, we'll just use non-elemental ones." Presea said as she prepared her Mystic Arte. "Become dust... It's Over! Infernal Ruin!" Presea said as she swings her axe at Tiger, causing an explosion. The axe was seen in Tiger's claws as he growled.

Windblight was firing at the the group with its cannon in order to eliminate them.

"That's the same laser as the Guardians." Link said.

"Indeed. It is a powerful cannon that will bring you ruin!" Tiger said.

"Things don't seem to be looking good." Jexi said before they saw something flying at them. "What the…"

It was Teba flying right at them with two talons out as he kicked both Tiger and Monkey off the edge of Medoh before collapsing.

Jude landed on Medoh as that happened. "Is everyone alright?"

"Yep, now." Sheena said.

"Sorry...if I stole the thunder. Couldn't just let you...fight those monsters on your own." Teba said still in pain.

"Take it easy, Teba. You're still hurt." Jude said.

"I don't care. As a Rito Warrior, I couldn't just let these guys go and die, knowing they were protecting my village." Teba said.

"Couldn't have said it better myself." David said. "Presea, once more from the top."

"This...is the end." Presea swings her axe at Windblight, causing an explosion similar to Infernal Ruin, however the axe flew in the air as she grabs it. "Now, let's end this!" Presea flips as she swings her axe on the ground in front of Windblight, causing a larger explosion. "Crimson Devastation!" When the attack was over, Presea clasped a hand to her heart. "There's no way to turn back time…"

Windblight screeched as Malice was leaking from its body before it soon exploded into nothing like the other creations of Ganon.

Link then approached the Main Control Unit and reclaimed Medoh.

"So you finally did it, eh? Well I'll be plucked." a voice said as flying down was a black feathered Rito with ghostly fire around him.

Revali

Rito Champion

"Well done. I suppose I should thank you now that my spirit is free. This returns Medoh to its rightful owner." Revali said. "Don't preen yourselves just for doing your jobs."

"Hey!" Rainbow said.

"Though I suppose some of you have proven to be warriors. Mainly Presea, Link, Rainbow and Teba. Thus you all are worthy of my unique ability. The sacred skill which I have dubbed Revali's Gale!" Revali said as he fired four green orbs into them. Link was the first to try it, creating an updraft that would lift him higher than before.

The group was amazed by this development. "Wow, Link. That's amazing!" Colette said.

"Getting to a high up place shouldn't be a problem now." David said.

"Now it is time for me to prep Medoh's strike against Ganon. That is if you still think you need my help against him." Revali said with a smirk.

"Of course we do. Link was right, you really do have an ego." Rainbow said.

"Yes. You do need me. Feel free to thank me now." Revali said.

The group was silent as they began to vanish.

"Or...nevermind. Just go. Your jobs are far from finished, you know. The princess has been waiting an awful long time." Revali said.

After they had vanished, Medoh began to descend towards the Rito Village with its talons out as it gripped a rock formation as if it were a perch. It stood up high as it fired a laser from its beak right at Hyrule Castle.

"Medoh's sights are now set. You'll have a precise bead on Ganon from this vantage point. When the time is right, give him everything you've got. Now we wait for that perfect moment. Hehe. Medoh, we have been artfully patient for the past 100 years. I doubt you'll suffer a feather over a few more moments. After all these years, I simply must admit the truth...Even without the power of flight, Link and his friends made their way to the Divine Beast. And accomplished something I could not. I was wrong about...how lucky he was. I hope that luck holds out, Link. For everyone's sake." Revali said.

The group were soon returned to the Rito Village.

"All of the Divine Beasts have been reawakened." Raine said. "Hyrule Castle should be safer to traverse now."

"Ah. You have calmed the beast." a voice said as Kaneli approached with a bow. "Well done, Champion descendant. For this task, we wish to offer this. The Great Eagle Bow, a powerful bow once wielded by Master Revali."

"I know who this is going to. Vera, catch!" Hope said throwing the bow to the new archer.

"You did well, Champion descendant. Yet all you lack is the sword that seals the darkness." Kaneli said.

"The Master Sword. How can anyone forget that beaut?" Hope asked.

"That's right. We won't be able to properly defeat Calamity Ganon without it." David said.

"Well, I do know where it is. If you head east, you will come across a large forest. At the heart of this forest sleeps the sword." Kaneli said.

"Thank you, Elder." David said with a bow. "You've been of great help to us."

"Don't sell yourself short." Teba said. "You can hold your own pretty well too."

"We're used to these kinds of situations." David said. "But still, Teba. If you and Jude hadn't shown up when you did, we would've been goners."

"Its no worries. Jude explained what you have gone through and...I'm impressed. So..what I'm about to ask next might be a surprise. Will you...let me follow you?" Teba asked with a kneel.

"Are… Are you saying…?" David started.

"I want...to be a Brave Adventurer." Teba said.

"Of course. I'll be happy to accept your request." David said with a smile.

"Thank you. Besides, you need a skilled archer. Your girl may be good with a bow, but I have a mastery over it. I can train her to properly use it." Teba said rising.

"That would be nice. Thanks." Vera said.

"Now, its time to make our way east. We need to get that sword." Natsu said.
