{{Quote|The legendary sword that seals the darkness. Its blade gleams with a sacred luster that can oppose the Calamity. Only a hero chosen by the sword itself may wield it.|[[Hyrule Compendium]] description, ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]''}} | |||
In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]'', the Master Sword was wielded by [[Link (Breath of the Wild)|Link]] prior to the [[Great Calamity]], after he was discovered to be worthy of drawing the blade from its pedestal in [[Korok Forest]]. In "[[Subdued Ceremony]]", the speech recited by [[Zelda (Breath of the Wild)|Zelda]] states that the Sword is bound to the spirit of the hero, and whether "skyward bound", "adrift in time", or "steeped in the glowing embers of twilight", it always comes to aid him. In [[Resolve and Grief]], Zelda reveals that she can hear the Master Sword talk to her, presumably referring to Fi. | |||

When [[Gloom]] begins to leak from [[Beneath Hyrule Castle]], Link and Zelda retrieve the sword to use during their investigation; The Great Deku Tree explains that the Master Sword has been restored to its full power, and reveals that it has the ability to grow stronger when exposed to sacred light, potentially with no limit. Later, when the two confront Ganondorf's mummified body in the [[Imprisoning Chamber]], Link attempts to use the Master Sword to block a steam of Gloom directed at Zelda; The Gloom corrodes and shatters the blade into pieces, although the tip cuts Ganondorf's cheek as it flies off. Ganondorf recognizes the Master Sword for what it is, and expresses disappointment at having defeated Link so easily. When the [[Upheaval]] begins and Zelda falls into the chasm below, Link tosses the destroyed Master Sword aside to try and save her. | ||
When Link recovers in the [[Room of Awakening]], he finds the '''Decayed Master Sword''' stuck in a nearby rock, with only the hilt and decayed ricasso still intact. In this state, the Master Sword has lost all of its power, with a base damage of 1 and a durability of 5; It cannot be [[Fuse|fused]], and will not recharge after running out of energy, making it the worst weapon in the game. However, it is required in order to get past several vine walls that block Link's path in the Room of Awakening. Later, after Link passes through the [[Temple of Time (Tears of the Kingdom)|Temple of Time]], he discovers a pedestal with a glowing yellow light shining from it; The Master Sword instructs him to place it on the pedestal. When Link does so, the blade is sent back in time via [[Recall]], where it is retrieved by Zelda in the distant past. | When Link recovers in the [[Room of Awakening]], he finds the '''Decayed Master Sword''' stuck in a nearby rock, with only the hilt and decayed ricasso still intact.
