Dialogue[edit]

Mysterious Voice: Chosen one... The hero called Link... The time has come. You are now ready to test the limits of your courage. At the place where you reunited with the Master Sword, the sacred Korok Forest... Go there and heed the Great Deku Tree's words. Do so, and a glorious trial will be bestowed upon you.

Great Deku Tree: Hm? What's this? A voice beckoned you here? I see. So the time has come. I shall now tell you all I know about the arduous trial that awaits you. That sword you have reunited with... the Master Sword... it has yet to realize its true splendor.

Mysterious Voice: To the blade's chosen hero... In the name of the Goddess Hylia, I offer the trial of the Sword. You presently lack the power necessary to wield the true splendor of the Master Sword... You must fortify your mind, body and soul by eradicating all obstacles that appear in this realm. In this illusory realm of sacred mystery, anything can happen... All that you obtain here will be lost upon your return to the reality you know. Chosen hero of the Master Sword... Overcome the Trial of the Sword and claim the blade's true splendor! This trial shall test your courage to ensure you are worth of this splendor. It is called the Trial of the Sword. It will challenge you as you have never been challenged before. All of your weapons and armor will be sealed away. You must face your enemies without the tools you've come to rely on. Once you have tempered your soul and proven your wisdom and courage by completing the Trial of the Sword... the Master Sword shall truly be yours! ...Hm. Unless my eyes deceive me, you seem quite willing to take on this trial. A hero through and through! Now, Link... Place the Master Sword in its pedestal.

Great Deku Tree: Ah. You have finally returned. You look stronger than when last I saw you... The Master Sword you wield is now more powerful than before.

Great Deku Tree: If you desire still more power and wish to retry the blade's test... once again place the Master Sword in its pedestal.
