===Story===
The Master Sword initially starts in [[Link]]'s inventory but is grievously damaged by Ganondorf's [[Gloom]] attack during the opening.
Upon Link's awakening in the [[Great Sky Island]], he will instead be in possession of a Decayed Master Sword, an unbreakable weapon with a measly 1 attack power, ensuring he cannot be without a source of damage output in the game's tutorial segment. By the time Link clears the Great Sky Island, the Decayed Master Sword will disappear in a flash of light, before the [[Light Dragon]] appears and parts the [[Cloud Barrier]], granting access to [[Hyrule]] proper.


The Master Sword initially starts in [[Link]]'s inventory but is grievously damaged by Ganondorf's [[Gloom]] attack during the opening.  
Through memories, the Sword is shown to have travelled through time and arrived with [[Zelda#Tears of the Kingdom|Zelda]] in the past. Over the course of Zelda's time there, and especially after [[Ganon#Tears of the Kingdom|Ganondorf]] comes to power, Zelda realizes that she was sent there to restore the Master Sword to its full potential. As [[Mineru]] tells her, this would likely take eons to accomplish, and a source of power could not normally be provided for such a long time. Zelda resorts to the only possible method - consuming her [[Secret Stone]] and irreversibly turning into a Dragon. At the end of the memories and the past events, Zelda stands behind the [[Temple of Time (Tears of the Kingdom)|Temple of Time]], and consumes the Stone. She manages to grab the Master Sword and hold it in front of her before she transforms into the Light Dragon.  


Upon Link's awakening in the Great Sky Island, he will instead be in possession of a Decayed Master Sword, an unbreakable weapon with a measly 1 attack power, ensuring he cannot be without a source of damage output in the game's tutorial segment. By the time Link clears the Great Sky Island, the Decayed Master Sword will disappear in a flash of light, before the [[Light Dragon]] appears and parts the [[Cloud Barrier]], granting access to Hyrule proper.
In the present, a restored Master Sword can be found stuck in the brow of the Light Dragon, who soars all around Hyrule. The Sword requires 5 [[Stamina Vessel]]s to pull out (temporary stamina will not work; Link gets a free, full stamina refill upon attempting to pull the Master Sword). If Link does not retrieve the Master Sword before confronting Ganondorf, then he will pull it out for free at the start of the [[Demon Dragon]] fight.


Afterwards, a restored Master Sword can be found stuck in the brow of the Light Dragon, who soars all around Hyrule, and requires 5 [[Stamina Vessel]]s to pull out (temporary stamina will not work; Link gets a free, full stamina refill upon attempting to pull the Master Sword). If Link does not retrieve the Master Sword before confronting Ganondorf, then he will pull it out for free at the start of the [[Demon Dragon]] fight.
After Ganondorf has been defeated and the Light Dragon transforms back into Zelda, she is relieved to see that Link found the Master Sword, and that her attempt to restore it worked.  


===Powers and Statistics===
The Master Sword can be [[Fuse]]d like any other weapon, though it cannot be used as a fuse material for something else, due to being impossible to drop from the inventory. Materials fused onto the Master Sword will be irrecoverably lost, as they will be destroyed when the Master Sword runs out of energy and unlike other weapons, [[Pelison]] cannot remove materials fused onto the Master Sword.

A similar sword, called MsgNotFound, is used by Link during the prologue, appearing exactly like the Master Sword, but lacks the Master Sword's name and description, as the player cannot open the equipment menu in the prologue without glitches. It cannot break, and cannot be legitimately used outside of the prologue. If it is somehow glitched into the game proper, then it also cannot have materials fused onto it without the use of additional glitches.
