Daruk was killed when [[Ganon#Breath of the Wild|Ganon]] took over Divine Beast Vah Rudania. One hundred years later, [[Link#Breath of the Wild|Link]] returned to free the Divine Beast. Daruk's spirit greets him upon entering, stating that he is happy to see Link has finally arrived.{{Ref|[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]|Hey, little guy! Long time no see. I always knew you'd come back. Y'know, I never stopped believing in you! You're here to take control of ol' Rudania back from Ganon, eh? You're gonna need a map that shows the guts of this place. You can grab the info from the Guidance Stone over there. Now get a move on! - '''Daruk'''}} He shows Link where the map of Rudania can be found, and then explains that he must open all of the terminals within Rudania to free the beast.{{Ref|[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]|Nice job getting the map of the Divine Beast! The terminals that control Rudania are noted by the glowing points on your map. To take back Rudania, you'll need to activate all of the terminals. You got this, little guy! - '''Daruk'''}} Daruk often cheers Link on after each terminal is activated.{{Ref|[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]|There are four terminals remaining! That's the way! - '''Daruk'''}}{{Ref|[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]|There are three terminals remaining!

Just a little more! - '''Daruk'''}}{{Ref|[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]|Just one terminal remaining! Just one more! - '''Daruk'''}} After opening all of the terminals and activating the main control unit,{{Ref|[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]|Nice! That was the last terminal! Now go ahead and start up the main control unit! There should be a new glowing mark on your map. You're gonna need to make your way over to that. Stay focused, little guy! - '''Daruk'''}} [[Fireblight Ganon]] appears. Daruk once again provides Link with advice and encouragement as he battles the monster.{{Ref|[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]|Watch yourself now! That ugly pain in the crag is Ganon's handiwork. Thing got the best of me a hundred years ago. Good luck, little guy! Go get 'im! - '''Daruk'''}} After the battle is over, Daruk appears before Link as a spirit and thanks him for defeating the monster and freeing both him and Rudania. He grants Link [[Daruk's Protection]], which allows the hero to temporarily defend himself against attacks.{{Ref|[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]|I owe you big for this. Because of you, my spirit is finally free. Can't thank you enough! I feel like I should apologize. I was doing all I could to protect Hyrule when that thing got the best of me. Sorry, that me resting with the rubble caused such a mess. The good news is, Rudania is now back under our control! That means that our century-old Ganon beat-down plan can finally go into effect! I'm gonna take this down the mountain. I'll have a better shot at Ganon there. And then, once you've made your way into Hyrule Castle, we're gonna light that thing up! I want to give you something. It's a special power of mine called Daruk's Protection. It's no good to me now that I'm a spirit... but it might be useful for you. - '''Daruk'''}} Daruk tells him that his power is with him while wishing him luck and asks him to give Princess Zelda his regards.{{Ref|[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]|From this moment forth, the power of protection, from the depths of my soul, now lives inside you. Good luck, little guy! And give my regards to the princess. - '''Daruk'''}} He then takes Rudania to the highest peak of [[Death Mountain (Breath of the Wild)|Death Mountain]] and takes aim at [[Hyrule Castle (Breath of the Wild)|Hyrule Castle]]. He takes a moment to enjoy the scenery and he wonders how the Gorons have fared since the tragedy until he catches sight of his grandson, Yunobo who is also staring up at him.{{Ref|[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]|Well, that oughta do it! We're set here, now we just gotta wait for the perfect shot. Once Link is in the castle, Rudania will unleash an epic blast. Ganon won't know what hit 'im! Hyrule looks pretty good from up here... even after a hundred years. The ol' rolling grounds sure are a sight for sore eyes. I wonder how the Gorons fared after the Great Calamity. I sure hope everyone down there is still going strong after every— - '''Daruk'''}} Daruk becomes overjoyed to see that the Gorons are still going strong,{{Ref|[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]|Hey! Well look at that! Still going strong indeed! - '''Daruk'''}} as Yunobo waves back at him.

Once ''The Champions' Ballad DLC'' is active, Link can do [[EX Champion Daruk's Song]] Quest to go through the trials that Daruk himself when through. Once the trial is completed, Daruk's voice calls out to him as he was happy to see that he had done well and reduced his power's cooldown time, and tells Link that if he sees Calamity Ganon, he should pass the message "Good riddance, bacon breath" to it.{{Ref|[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]|I knew ya could do it, little guy! Now you can use Daruk's Protection more than ever. If ya see that Ganon jerk, give him a message for me... Good riddance, bacon-breath! - '''Daruk'''}} Daruk's Protection will be upgraded to [[Daruk's Protection +]]
When Link repeats his fight with Fireblight Ganon in the [[Illusory Realm]], Daruk will provide more dialogue. In the first dialogue, Daruk asks Link to relay a message to Yunobo that he himself was once as timid as him and to work hard, look out for his brothers, and eat plenty of rocks and he might be stronger than Daruk himself.{{Ref|[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]|Little guy! Can ya pass along a message to the youngster for me? Tell him, when I was young, nobody gave me the tome o' day. I was green as grass and timid and a mouse! Just work hard, watch out for your brothers, and eat lots of tasty rocks. Do that, and you'll be stronger than me! It'd be great if you could tell him that for me, brother. - '''Daruk'''}} In the second dialogue, Daruk recalls the day he first met Link and he never thought that he would actually dub a Hylian with Goron-like strength his brother. Daruk also remembers how shocked he was and tells him that it's better that he doesn't remember it.{{Ref|[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]|Hey there, little guy! Say, do ya remember when we first met? Honestly... I never thought I'd find a Hylian strong enough to be considered a true brother! I was so shocked, bet I had a dopey look on my face. Maybe it's best if ya don't remember that part. - '''Daruk'''}} In the third dialogue, Daruk recounts his problems with dogs when he was younger, which he dubs a monster.{{Ref|[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]|Hey, little guy! Listen, I'm trusting ya to keep it a secret, OK? Between you and me, there was once a monster I just couldn't beat. I hated that stupid thing! When I was young, I stepped on its tail, and it went 'ARP!' and 'RUFF!' and 'GRRRR!' Nasty critter. I can still see its awful face and sharp fangs. Facing your fears is certainly no walk in the bark... I mean park. - '''Daruk'''}} In the fourth dialogue, Daruk will tell Link about his training journal that he left behind and tells him to find it to help jog his memories if they are still a little hazy.{{Ref|[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]|Little guy! I'm guessing your memory's still scrambled, yeah? Well... Maybe it'd help if you read that thing about our memories. Ya know, the one from back in the good o' days. What's that thing? Oh, yeah, my diary, I mean... my training journal. I bet it's still around. What? Surprised I kept a journal? If you're curious, try to find it! - '''Daruk'''}} In the fifth and final dialogue, Daruk is impressed at how skilled he is and believes that he can defeat Calamity Ganon.{{Ref|[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]|Hey, little guy! So ya came to test your skills again, huh? With the strength you've mustered, I'm sure beating down Calamity Ganon will be a piece of slate! - '''Daruk'''}}


Upon Link's return to fight Ganon, Daruk uses Vah Rudania's power to weaken the beast, by motivating him and telling Ganon to open wide as he fires his laser.{{Ref|[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]|Let's go little guy! Now! Open up wide, Ganon! - '''Daruk'''}}
