Harth is a character in Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom.

Breath of the Wild

Harth is a Rito who can be found at one of the higher elevations of Rito Village. He is an injured Rito who initially is a bit shy about providing any real insight as to how he got hurt.[1][2] He is a bow craftsman, but because of his hurt right arm, he is unable to work and business is not exactly booming.[3] He hints that perhaps he should have put more stock in what the village elder Kaneli had to say.[4]

There is a Swallow Bow on the shelf in Harth's room. If Link tries to take the bow, Harth will initially call out towards him, but then says he can just have the bow as Harth cannot use it in his current condition.[5]

After speaking with the village elder Kaneli, Harth will open up a bit more on his injuries and what happened.[6] Harth and Teba went up to approach Medoh, but Harth was shot down. He was falling from the sky, but fortunately Teba was there to catch him and save him from his fall.[7]

Harth is good friends with Teba and their families have grown to be quite close to one another. His daughter Molli is around the same age as Tulin, who is Teba's son, so the families spend a lot of time together. Harth had a boyhood dream of becoming a warrior, but eventually settled into the family business of crafting bows.[8] However, Teba's desire to battle with Medoh once again makes Harth question his sanity. Teba has a wife and child and Harth thinks he is a moron for risking that with another battle with Medoh.[9] Although Harth immediately contradicts himself, as he states that once his injuries are healed, Harth wants another go at Medoh as well, this time flying up and launching some Bomb Arrows at its cannons.[10]

Tears of the Kingdom

Harth can be found at the Hebra Trailhead Lodge alongside Amali, just north of Rito Village. With Teba protecting the village, Harth is handling things over at the Hebra Trailhead Lodge.[11] He is very pleased to see Link when he first arrives.[12] As part of the Tulin of Rito Village quest, Link visits Harth to find out some more information. He has no information on the whereabouts of Princess Zelda, but contends that the Rito have more immediate concerns than Princess Zelda having gone missing.[13] He mentions that almost everybody from Rito Village has left to either scavenge for food, or to investigate the Blizzard.

Harth does suggest that maybe Tulin can help out. He mentions that Tulin has developed a way with wings that puts even the adult Rito to shame. Even with the ongoing blizzard, Tulin patrols the skies and reports any usefull information. Although Harth does gloat a bit too much, even Teba acknowledges Tulin's abilities are a cut above the rest of the Rito.[14] Harth guides Link to towards the Hebra South Summit Cave to seek out Tulin. He was last seen Gesane and Laissa, searching for food.[15][16] He tells Link to go up the cliff, and up the mountan road. He'll find a bonfire at the mouth of the cave.[17]

Harth comments that all hands are on deck with researching the Blizzard and scavanging for food. Ever since the island-looking think appeared in the sky, it has been raining down junk ever since. This, along with the numerous flying monsters have made it dangerous. While some of the Rito are searching the mountains, others are evening looking into past Rito legends and fables for clues.[18] The Rito are nearly certain the blizzard is being caused by what is above the cloud. At the moment, the Rito don't have the supplies to make the trip up there, although Hart seems to believe that Tulin might be uniquely qualified to investigate.[19]

Harth later joins with Gesane to meet up with Link and Tulin, after they defeat a group of Bokoblin. He congratulates the two, but emphasizes that teamwork is how things are accomplished.[20][21][22]

After hearing that Princess Zelda was spotted, Hart encourages Tulin and Link to investigate the cloud up above.[23][24] As much as Harth wants to see for himself, he recognizes that Tulin is the only Rito who is uniquely qualified to travel through the stormy sky. Harth tells a quote to Tulin which comes from Tulin's father Teba. "Tulin will be the finest Rito warrior of all once he understands the value of working with his allies."[25][26][27][28][29]

Harth appears at the end of the Tulin of Rito Village quest, when Teba gives Tulin his Bow.[30] He says that he is considering heading to Lookout Landing to help with Hyrule's problems.[31][32] After Link leaves the area, Harth can be found outside Purah's research building. He thanks Link for his assistance with the Rito's problems, and will help Hyrule's problems by checking out the Sky Islands.

  1. Arrgh... Welcome. Owwww... - Harth
  2. No offence, but this is not your concern. That cursed monster... - Harth
  3. I am Harth, the bow craftsman. But... I cannot raise my right arm right now, so business is not exactly booming. - Harth
  4. Not really... If this is what we are up again, we should have put more stock in the elder's words. - Harth
  5. Hey... Heh... Take it. Not like I can use it in my condition. - Harth
  6. Hey, buddy... I'm guessing you caught wind of that monster circling around our village. I suppose I should get you up to speed on what went down. - Harth
  7. Here goes... You see this wound here on my wing? I got shot by that thing in the sky, Divine Beast Vah Medoh. Legend has it, that monster was once the protector of this village. But those days are long gone-as soon as Teba and I approached the thing, it just shot at us out of nowhere. We tried to fight back, but I was too slow and got it. Thankfully, Teba caught me while I was falling from the sky. We had no choice but to retreat. When I think about what would have happened had Teba not been there... Still gives me the bumps. So you planning to go find Teba? I will tell you everything I know. - Harth
  8. I am Harth. Bow craft is my trade. My boyhood dream was to be a warrior, but I gave that up once it came time to inherit the family business. My daughter, Molli, is around the same age as Teba's kid, Tulin, so our families spend a lot of time together. Hold on... Is any of this helpful at all? - Harth
  9. Teba. Him and I go way back. As far as flying goes, he is undoubtedly the best in the village. His only downside is that he's reckless... and has a bit of a temper...and he can be rude. But we look out for each other. But the way he was talking...saying that he was going to "blow Medoh out of the sky." He ants to go back up there...alone. Which is absolutely insane. What kind of moron with a wife and a kid does that? - Harth
  10. Divine Beast Vah Medoh... I don't believe it myself, but some say it used to protect our village before disappearing 100 years ago. Teba and I got to wondering about it, and when we went to investigate, it just opened fire on us...hence the injury. But as soon as I recover, I plan to fly up there with a whole mess of bomb arrows and blow its cannons to bits! - Harth
  11. "Teba is protecting the village, where the children are, so that I can keep things going here. Whether it's figuring out the source of this weird weather or scrounging food day and night, everyone's pitching in. But don't feel like you're intruding, bud! If there's anything you want to know, you can ask me." — Harth, Tears of the Kingdom
  12. "Link! You're all right! I worried after I heard that you had gone missing. What happened?" — Harth, Tears of the Kingdom
  13. "Ah, so you're looking for Princess Zelda. Sorry to tell you that I haven't heard anything about her. Our feathers are full dealing with a more immediate problem. Everyone from the village has left to scavenge for food or to investigate the cause of this terrible blizzard. And all that has been hampered by the sky monsters that seem to be everywhere. We're spread too thin to deal with them properly on top of everything else. Sorry, bud. Wish I could do more for you. Though now that I think of it... maybe Tulin could help." — Harth, Tears of the Kingdom
  14. "Oh, right. You weren't around for it, but... Little Tulin has developed a way with wings that puts the adults to shame. Even in this vicious weather, he patrols the skies and reports all kinds of useful information. His wind-gust technique is something to see. None of the rest of us can pull it off. Even stern Teba acknowledges that Tulin's skill is a cut above. The kid does preen about it more than he should, but... Well, it's worth asking him, at least. Last I saw him, he was with Gesane and Laissa on a trip to find food." — Harth, Tears of the Kingdom
  15. "I think they were on their way to Hebra South Summit Cave. That's to the northeast from here. The cave is past the cliff out front and up the mountain road. There should be a bonfire marking the spot." — Harth, Tears of the Kingdom
  16. "Right now, Tulin is with Gesane and Laissa looking for food at the Hebra South Summit cave. The blizzard hasn't hit the caves as hard, so you can still find fish and mushrooms inside them sometimes." — Harth, Tears of the Kingdom
  17. "Find the bonfire at the mouth of the cave, and you'll be on your way to finding Tulin." — Harth, Tears of the Kingdom
  18. "Other than making sure everyone is fed? Mostly we investigate what the deal is with this blizzard. This island-looking thing appeared in the sky along with the blizzard. It's been raining down junk on us ever since. Not only that, we have to deal with these packs of flying monsters. I've never seen anything like them. Most of us are focused on checking out the mountains themselves, but some are looking into Rito legends and fables. We're casting a wide net with this one. Anything that might be related is fair game. You never know where the clue that breaks the whole thing wide open will be found, after all. I wouldn't rule anything out as long as there's a chance." — Harth, Tears of the Kingdom
  19. "We're nearly certain that the source of this blizzard is above that cloud. If we can confirm that, it's a good first step. We don't yet have the supplies to make the trek up there, but we're chipping away at the problem, little by little. Just between you and me, we're thinking of sending Tulin as our investigator. You should see him in action. His abilities really are something, Link. He's a better flier and archer than most of the adults. And the way he can create winds at will? That's a trick I've never even heard of anyone else pulling off. The only thing is...with all that skill at his command, he tends to assume he doesn't need anyone else backing him up. And that's gotten him into trouble more times than I can count. Teba and I talk all the time about what he could accomplish if he could only get rid of that silly idea." — Harth, Tears of the Kingdom
  20. "That was some impressive teamwork, you two! " — Harth, Tears of the Kingdom
  21. "Aw! You saw that, Harth?! Talk about embarrasing. I...didn't listen when Gesane tried to stop me. I thought I could handle it. But I just ended up losing my favorite bow to those stupid things. I thought I was fully-fledged, but there's probably no way I could've gotten it back on my own." — Tulin, Tears of the Kingdom
  22. "I bet now you see why we were treating you like a small chick." — Harth, Tears of the Kingdom
  23. "What? Princess Zelda flew above the cloud?! How can that be? Hmm... Seems like a stretch, but we're not going to get to the bottom of it sitting around here. Tulin, Link came out here looking for Princess Zelda. You should go with him, and investigate the cloud you say the princess soared into." — Harth, Tears of the Kingdom
  24. "I got a report before coming here. We think it's likely that the blizzard is coming from inside that cloud after all." — Harth, Tears of the Kingdom
  25. "I want to see for myself as soon as I can, but the strong winds make any approach from the sides impossible. The only way in is through the top, but... There's not a Rito alive capable of crossing this stormy sky and making it all the way there. Well. Except for one. I'm talking about you, Tulin. Only you have the skill and training to create gusts at will. "Tulin will be the finest Rito warrior of all once he understands the value of working with his allies." You know who said that to me? Your old dad, Teba." — Harth, Tears of the Kingdom
  26. "Yep. And I'll make sure he knows what you accomplished here today. Now it's time you go with Link to find Princess Zelda and whatever's causing this blizzard!" — Harth, Tears of the Kingdom
  27. "Link! Tulin! We're counting on you." — Harth, Tears of the Kingdom
  28. "I'm sure the two of you can overcome anything if you work together. Don't worry about Teba. You two should get going! Bring me back a nice souvenir, OK, bud?" — Harth, Tears of the Kingdom
  29. "Between the two of you, I bet you could do anything. And if Teba were here, he'd say the same." — Harth, Tears of the Kingdom
  30. "You guys! You did it!" — Harth, Tears of the Kingdom
  31. "I'm thinking about heading over to Lookout Landing as a representative of the Rito. If Hyrule't not at peace, the Rito aren't at peace either, right? I just need to get a couple things together, and I'll be ready to set out." — Harth, Tears of the Kingdom
  32. "I plan to set out for Lookout Landing as soon as I'm ready. There must be some way we Rito can help." — Harth, Tears of the Kingdom
