{{Quote|The Master Sword is a sacred blade which evil ones may never touch.... Only one worthy of the title of "Hero of Time" can pull it from the Pedestal of Time....|[[Rauru]]}}
The '''Master Sword''', also known as the '''Blade of Evil's Bane''' and the '''Sword that Seals the Darkness''', is a recurring [[Sword]] in [[The Legend of Zelda (Series)|''The Legend of Zelda'' series]]. It is one of the most iconic items of the series, along with [[Link]] himself. In many games, it is said to be the only sword capable of defeating [[Ganon]]. This legendary blade is blessed with the power to vanquish beings of evil and is often found in the [[Pedestal of Time]]. It has become one of the most iconic symbols of ''The Legend of Zelda'' series, often appearing in other video games.
==History==
The Master Sword was forged from the [[Goddess Sword]], a blade originally wielded by the Goddess, [[Hylia]]. During the events of ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword|Skyward Sword]]'', [[Link]] is revealed as Hylia's chosen hero and removes the blade from its pedestal on the floating island of [[Skyloft]].
The sword is tied with a guardian entity known as [[Fi]], a being created by Hylia to guide the chosen hero. Fi helps [[Link]] in the forging of the Master Sword. This is done by imbuing the blade with three [[Sacred Flames]] which represent [[Din]], [[Nayru (Goddess)|Nayru]] and [[Farore]] respectively.
Each sacred flame [[Skyward Sword Upgrades|increases the properties of the sword]] as well as the shape and structure. Farore's Flame forges the Goddess Sword into the [[Goddess Longsword]], a longer and sharper blade that does double damage. Nayru's Flame makes the Goddess Longsword into the [[Goddess White Sword]], making the color of the hilt white and enhancing [[dowsing]] abilities. Din's Flame changes the Goddess White Sword into the Master Sword. The hilt turns purple and green and the blade does three times the damage. However, the wings on the side of the hilt are not extended, and the yellow gem in the middle is not glowing. These are indicators that the sword is not yet in its true form.
The Goddess Hylia blesses the blade and turns it into the [[True Master Sword]]. [[Skyward Strike]]s now charge much faster.
==Design==
The Master Sword is a double-edged longsword with no fuller and blue hilt, although in the artwork for ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|A Link to the Past]]'', the hilt of the sword is golden. The sword's cross-guard is large and elaborate in relation to its pommel, and is similar to the seal of [[Royal Family of Hyrule|Hyrule's Royal Family]]. The [[Triforce]] is engraved on the base of the blade, and embedded in the cross-guard is a gem.
In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Wind Waker]]'', the state of the gem in cross-guard seems to be indicative of the sword's power. When Link first acquires the un-awakened Master Sword, the gem in its cross-guard is dark, and the guard itself seems to have retracted toward the grip. Only once the sword has been restored to its full power does its hilt regain its signature appearance, and its blade again shines a mysterious light. In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]'', the Master Sword is much longer and slimmer.
==Appearances==
===A Link to the Past===
[[File:Lttpmaster sword.png|thumb|left|200px|The Master Sword as seen in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|A Link to the Past]]'']]
In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|A Link to the Past]]'', the Master Sword is obtained by collecting the three [[Pendants of Virtue]] from the three temples in the [[Light World]] across [[Hyrule]]. Once Link has them, he finds the Master Sword in the [[Lost Woods (A Link to the Past)|Lost Woods]]. In this game, the Master Sword can be upgraded to the [[Tempered Sword]] and the [[Golden Sword]]. In the [[Game Boy Advance|GBA]] version, the Golden Sword can break pots.The Master sword is a long double edge blade.

===Ocarina of Time===
[[File:oot3ds_mastersword.jpg|thumb|left|200px|The Master Sword as seen in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D|Ocarina of Time 3D]]'']]
In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]'', [[Link]] obtains the Master Sword in the [[Temple of Time]] from the [[Pedestal of Time]]. Link needs to place the three [[Spiritual Stones]] on the temple's altar, which can be found in the three dungeons from the Child Timeline across Hyrule. [[Sheik]] describes the blade as a ship that sails across time; obviously referencing the ability of it to take Link back and forth between childhood and adulthood. After defeating [[Ganon]], Link places the Master Sword back into its pedestal. This creates a split in the [[timeline]].

===Oracle of Seasons===

===The Wind Waker===
[[File:ww_mastersword.png|thumb|left|200px|The Master Sword in its weakened state in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Wind Waker]]'']]In ''The Wind Waker'', [[Link]] finds the Master Sword underneath the [[Great Sea]] within [[Hyrule Castle]] in the drowned land of Hyrule. After his first face-to-face encounter with [[Ganon]]dorf, he is told that the Master Sword has lost its power. To restore the Master Sword to its former glory, Link must awaken the new [[Sage]]s of earth and wind.

[[File:ww_mastersword2.png|thumb|left|200px|The Master Sword powered with the prayers of the Sage of Earth]]
<br/>After awakening [[Medli]] as the new Earth Sage, Link takes her to the [[Earth Temple (The Wind Waker)|Earth Temple]]. Upon defeating [[Jalhalla]], Link and Medli play the [[Earth God's Lyric]] and restore power partially to the Master Sword.

[[File:ww_mastersword3.png|thumb|left|200px|The Master Sword returns!]] After awakening [[Makar]] as the new Wind Sage, Link then travels with him to the [[Wind Temple]]. Upon defeating [[Molgera]], Link and Makar play the [[Wind God's Aria]]. With the prayers of both Sages, the Master Sword returns to its true state.
{{Clear|left}}
===Twilight Princess===
[[File:tp_mastersword.png|thumb|left|200px|[[Link]] removing the Master Sword from its pedestal in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]'']]
In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]'', [[Link]] obtains the Master Sword after getting cursed by [[Zant]], causing Link to remain permanently as a [[Wolf Link|wolf]]. The Master Sword is the only thing that can break the curse and it lies in a place called the [[Sacred Grove]].
Later in the game, upon entering the [[Palace of Twilight]], [[Link]] infuses the Master Sword with light. This light comes from the light sources of the [[Twilight Realm]] known as [[Sol]]s. Once infused with light, the Master Sword can cut through veils of [[twilight]] which normally would transform Link into a wolf upon exposure. The light vanishes from the sword upon leaving the [[Twilight Realm]], but returns to the sword upon re-entry.
{{Clear|left}}
===Skyward Sword===
[[File:ss_mastersword.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Upon exposure to Din's flame, the Goddess White Sword becomes the Master Sword in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword|Skyward Sword]]'']] ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword|Skyward Sword]]'' explains the creation of the Master Sword. It was originally known as the [[Goddess Sword]] wielded by the Goddess, [[Hylia]]. The blade was exposed to three [[Sacred Flames]]—[[Farore's Flame]], [[Nayru's Flame]] and [[Din's Flame]]—and then blessed by the Goddess in the form of Zelda, turning it into the True Master Sword. In comparison to the Goddess Longsword, it deals twice the damage. Each slash can deal 16 points of damage. The Spin Slash deals 24 points of damage and the Skyward Strike deals 8 points of damage.
{{Clear|left}}
[[File:ss_mastersword2.png|thumb|left|200px|The Master Sword in its true state after being blessed by [[Hylia]].]]
In this game, the Master Sword also has the ability to [[Skyward Strike|shoot beams of light]] and can [[Dowsing|search for people or items]]. This is likely due to the presence of Fi, the spirit inside the sword. After completing the game, the player can replay it in Hero Mode, which makes the Goddess Sword and subsequently the Master Sword's Skyward Strikes much quicker from the very beginning.
{{Clear|left}}
===A Link Between Worlds===
[[File:A_Link_Between_Worlds_-_Master_Sword.png|thumb|left|200px|Link obtaining the Master Sword from the Lost Woods in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds|A Link Between Worlds]]'']]
The Master Sword makes an appearance in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds|A Link Between Worlds]]'', and is found in the same location as ''A Link to the Past''. It can be found in the Lost Woods and cannot be obtained until after Link has collected the [[Pendants of Virtue]] and finds his way through the woods. It is needed to break the barrier around Hyrule Castle.
The Master Sword replaces the [[Forgotten Sword]] and features enhanced strength over his previous sword, and like its prequel, a sword beam can be shot out of the Master Sword whenever Link has full health. It can be upgraded to deal more damage if Link acquires two [[Master Ore]]s and gives them to the [[Blacksmith (Hyrule)|Blacksmith]] in [[Hyrule]], and he can further upgrade the Master Sword if he takes two more [[Master Ore]]s to the [[Blacksmith (Lorule)|Blacksmith]] in [[Lorule]]. When upgraded, the Master Sword Lv2 has a red blade while the Master Sword Lv3 has a golden blade, much like the [[Tempered Sword]] and the [[Golden Sword]] respectively in ''A Link to the Past''.

===Breath of the Wild===
{{spoiler|section}}
{{image|file=Master-sword.png|align=right}}


In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]'', the Master Sword can be found in its pedestal in the [[Korok Forest]], guarded by the [[Great Deku Tree]]. The Great Deku Tree reveals to Link that if a person deemed to be weak attempts to draw the Master Sword from its pedestal, they will slowly lose their life. This means that Link must be powerful enough to draw the blade from its slumber and, unlike any previous incarnation, he requires at least thirteen hearts to successfully retrieve the sword (These hearts must be permanent [[Heart Container|heart containers]]: using consumables that [[Temporary Heart|temporarily increase your maximum hearts]] will not allow you to obtain the Master Sword). Upon taking the sword, Link will obtain [[The Master Sword (Memory)|a memory of the sword being placed in the pedestal]]; however, this memory is not actually Link's, rather, it is [[Zelda#Breath of the Wild|Princess Zelda]]'s. Zelda placed the sword in its resting place after [[Zelda's Awakening|Link's near-death]], where the hero would come to retrieve it once more after his slumber in the [[Shrine of Resurrection]].

Line 109: Line 13:
After Link's death during his final memory, the sword begins to flash blue and emit a sound that is the same as [[Fi]]'s in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword|Skyward Sword]]'', indicating that she is still present within the blade. Fi speaks to Princess Zelda, and tells her that Link can still be saved by taking him to the [[Shrine of Resurrection]], where he can fully recover to fight [[Calamity Ganon]] once more.

===Super Mario Maker 2===
[[File:Link Sword stab - SMM2.png|right|64px]]
In ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]'', the Master Sword serves as a power-up in the ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' theme which transforms Mario (or the other playable characters) into Link, with a full set of typical Link moves. This includes using the Master Sword to stab, [[Downward Thrust|down thrust]] and [[Dash Attack|dash attack]]. The power-up is lost if Link takes damage.

The '''Tree Branch''' is a weapon found in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]''. They can be found lying on the ground across the [[Great Plateau]], and later, across all of [[Hyrule#Breath_of_the_Wild|Hyrule]] itself. [[Link#Breath_of_the_Wild|Link]] can use these Branches to attack enemies; conversely, they can also be used be enemies to attack Link. Tree Branches are one of the weakest weapons in the game; they do very little damage, with a base power of 2, and break easily.

Tree Brances can be lit on fire and will burn up quickly. While on fire, they can be used to light campfires or burn other nearby objects.

{{quote|This torch will stay lit once ignited, but if you put it away, the flame will be extinguished until you light it again.|In-Game Description}}
The '''Torch''' is a tool found in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]''. It has the ability to carry flames across distances without extinguishing. Torches can be used to burn grass, bushes, or wood to start a [[Campfire]]. Although it is classified as a weapon, it only has a power of 2 and has low durability.
When Link first exits the [[Shrine of Resurrection]] and meets the [[Old Man (Breath of the Wild)|Old Man]], he can steal the Torch that is nearby. The Old Man will ask Link how he plans on using it.{{Ref|''Well then, just help yourself to that torch there. And how, may I ask, are you planning to use it?'' - '''[[Old Man (Breath of the Wild)|Old Man]]'''}} If Link plans to use it as a weapon, the Old Man advises against it, and tells Link to use the [[Woodcutter's Axe|Axe]] instead.{{Ref|''Innovative... However, that is probably best used to light fires. If you need a weapon, you can find something better. Many beasts roam the land past this point. You can take my axe with you, if you please. Assuming you can find it.'' - '''[[Old Man (Breath of the Wild)|Old Man]]'''}} Alternatively, Link say that he is using the Torch to set things on fire, and the Old Man warns Link to be cautious, as it can burn the dry grass.{{Ref|''That is rather...unnerving. Please be cautious with that around any dry grass that might catch fire.'' - '''[[Old Man (Breath of the Wild)|Old Man]]'''}} Link can also say that his usage of the Torch is a secret, and the Old Man will let him do as he pleases.{{Ref|''I see, Well then, do as you please.'' - '''[[Old Man (Breath of the Wild)|Old Man]]'''}}
Link will need to use the Torch, or another burnable weapon, to carry the flame and light the standing torches leading up to the [[Hateno Ancient Tech Lab]] and the [[Akkala Ancient Tech Lab]]. In these cases, Link will light the torch with [[Blue Fire]], lighting the individual standing torches on the way.
When Link travels through the [[Lost Woods]], he will need to use a Torch while navigating through the maze. When standing still, the flames of the torch will travel in the direction that Link must go in order to progress deeper into the Lost Woods.

The '''Boomerang''' is an iconic item in [[The Legend of Zelda (Series)|''The Legend of Zelda'' series]], appearing in almost every title in some shape or form. It works by returning to [[Link]] after he has thrown it every time, making it very versatile. It can be used in many different ways, such as picking up items, or stun and even defeat enemies, or to hit distant switches, and much more.
==Appearances==
===The Legend of Zelda===
The Boomerang makes its debut in ''[[The Legend of Zelda]]''. Link can use it by assigning it to the B Slot and pressing that button to throw it. It can damage smaller enemies,{{Ref|''[[The Legend of Zelda]] Game Manual'', pg. 24|Link can use [the boomerang] to inflict damage on weak enemies.}} such as [[Keese]], and stun all other enemies,{{Ref|''[[The Legend of Zelda]] Game Manual'', pg. 24|[Link] can also stop  most of the enemy in their tracks if he throws the boomerang on target.}} like [[Goriya]]s. After being thrown, it only travels half the screen, making it very inconvenient. It is found in the first dungeon of the game, [[Level 1: The Eagle|The Eagle]]. Later on in the game, Link gets an upgrade to the Boomerang, entitled the [[Magical Boomerang]]. This upgrade is found in the second dungeon, [[Level 2: The Moon|The Moon]]. It travels much further than the original Boomerang,{{Ref|''[[The Legend of Zelda]] Game Manual'', pg. 24|The magical boomerang flies further then the wooden boomerang.}} making it a much better weapon in combat.
===A Link to the Past===
{{Quote|Boomerang<br/>The Boomerang has weak destructive power, but it has the ability to stun most enemies for a short period of time. The Boomerang is the item of choice when walking about Hyrule because you can use it to quickly retrieve items such as Hearts, Rupees, Arrows and Bombs.|Nintendo Power Player's Guide}}
{{Quote|Link can't throw the Blue Boomerang too far, but he'll be able to retrieve items within a short distance.|Nintendo Power Player's Guide}}
{{Quote|Blue Boomerang<br/>Link will pick up the Blue Boomerang in Hyrule Castle.|Nintendo Power Player's Guide}}
[[File:Boomerang-Sprite.png|left]]In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|A Link to the Past]]'', the Boomerang can be found in [[Hyrule Castle (A Link to the Past)|Hyrule Castle]]. It does the same thing it did in ''The Legend of Zelda'': paralyze enemies and bring items from afar. It also has an upgrade, a red version, which can make the rounds launched by pressing the D-Pad. In the [[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past (GBA)|GBA version]], the Boomerang can do things that it previously did not like mowing the lawn when released, etc.
{{clear|left}}
===Link's Awakening===
[[File:LA Boomerang Sprite.png|left]]
In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening|Link's Awakening]]'', the Boomerang appears as the final item in the [[Link's Awakening Trading Sequence|Trading Sequence]]. It is given to Link by the [[Secret Goriya]] at [[Toronbo Shores]] in exchange for the item on his B button.{{Ref|LA|512|Secret Goriya}}{{Ref|LA|515|Secret Goriya}} However, he cannot accept certain items, such as the [[sword]] or [[shield]].{{Ref|LA|518|Secret Goriya}} If Link returns to the Goriya after trading for the Boomerang, he begs to have it back and offers Link's old item.{{Ref|LA|516|Secret Goriya}}
With the Boomerang, Link can easily defeat several enemies that previously were much more difficult, such as [[Shadow Nightmares#DethI|DethI]], the final form of [[Shadow Nightmares|The Shadow Nightmares]], who can be defeated with one shot from the Boomerang.
===Ocarina of Time===
The Boomerang in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]'' is very similar to Boomerangs from previous titles, except it is in 3D. It can stun enemies, grab stuff, etc. It can be found [[Inside Jabu-Jabu's Belly]], the third [[Dungeon]] of the game. It is one of the many items Link loses the ability to use while in the future. The [[Hookshot]] replaces the Boomerang while Link is an adult, though it is much more useful, and much easier to control.
===Oracle of Seasons===
The Boomerang can be obtained from the [[Subrosian Dance Hall]] in [[Subrosia]] after dancing with its inhabitants the correct pattern. Its uses are similar to ''Ocarina of Time's''.
===Oracle of Ages===
In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages|Oracle of Ages]]'', the Boomerang is obtained from the [[Goron Shooting Gallery]] in [[Rolling Ridge]]. Link must earn at least 400 points in the mini-game, at which point the owner gives Link the Boomerang.{{Ref|OoA|1155|Goron Shooting Gallery Owner}} It is not required to complete the game.
===Four Swords===
===Four Sword Adventures===
===The Wind Waker===
The Boomerang in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Wind Waker]]'' is the first one to be able to lock on to multiple targets at once; five to be exact. It is found in the [[Forbidden Woods]]. It can be obtained after defeating the mini-boss [[Mothula]].
===The Minish Cap===
[[File:Boomerangmc.png|right]]
There are two Boomerangs in this game. The regular Boomerang works like in previous ''Zelda'' games and can be bought in [[Castle Town]] for 300 [[Rupee]]s. The [[Magical Boomerang]] can be obtained after [[Tingle]]'s sidequest and fusing [[Kinstone]]s. It can be controlled with the D-Pad. It will be found in [[North Hyrule Field]].
{{Clear}}
===Twilight Princess===
[[File:GaleBoomerang.png|left|40px]]
{{Main|Gale Boomerang}}
In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]'', Link gets the Boomerang, which is called the [[Gale Boomerang]], in the first dungeon, the [[Forest Temple (Twilight Princess)|Forest Temple]]. The Gale Boomerang is different from the ones found in other games in that it gives the user the ''Power of Winds''. After Link defeats the [[Mini-Boss]] of the Forest Temple, the possessed baboon leader [[Ook]], he receives the Boomerang and gains the ability to make a hurricane of wind. The player can throw the Boomerang up to five times in various directions.
{{Clear}}
===Phantom Hourglass===
[[File:PH-Boomerang.png|right]]
In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass|Phantom Hourglass]]'', Link receives the Boomerang in the first temple, the [[Temple of Fire]]. Instead of just launching the Boomerang as in previous ''Zelda'' titles, Link must draw a line on the screen of the [[Nintendo DS]]. The Boomerang will follow the same route of the line. If a torch is out and is next to a lighted torch, Link can route the torch lit and then extinguished the torch and it will cause the Boomerang catch fire and ignite the torch. This is one of several features that Boomerang can do in this game.
===Spirit Tracks===
In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks|Spirit Tracks]]'', Link wins the Boomerang in the second temple, [[Snow Temple]]. To control the Boomerang, he can do the same thing as in ''Phantom Hourglass''; draw a line on the bottom screen of the Nintendo DS, and it will follow the same route.
Often there are enemies that cannot be hit from the front, so Link must draw a path with the boomerang and hit the enemy on its backside in order to stun it. While some enemies can be defeated with one hit of the boomerang, many others will only be stunned. This will, however, give Link an opportunity to finish them off with his sword. The boomerang is also capable of equipping fire and ice along its way. If Link targets a lit torch and then an enemy, the boomerang will carry the fire and can burn the enemy that Link targets. Link can use the boomerang on ice torches and then send it over water, which will cause the water to freeze and ice platforms to appear that Link can walk over.
The boomerang is very commonly used to hit switches or other objects in order to solve puzzles. At times Link might need to hit several objects consecutively in a certain order to solve a puzzle and open a closed door, or to access a treasure chest. Other times Link must hit a distant object in order to create a bridge, or to lower or raise a platform to allow him to access new areas.
===Hyrule Warriors===
In ''[[Hyrule Warriors]]'', the Boomerang is a sub-weapon that can be unlocked in [[The Sorceress of the Valley]] scenario from [[Legend Mode]]. The Boomerang functions like it does in other ''Zelda'' games, stunning enemies and being a key weapon against [[Manhandla (Hyrule Warriors)|Manhandla]]. If Link picks up a power-up for the Boomerang, it becomes the Gale Boomerang, sending out tornados that stun multiple enemies.
===A Link Between Worlds===
In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds|A Link Between Worlds]]'', the Boomerang is a rentable, and later purchasable item that can be found at any point in [[Ravio's Shop]] after completing the [[Eastern Palace (A Link Between Worlds)|Eastern Palace]]. It can be used to stun enemies, cut grass, grab items, and flip switches, similarly to most other ''Zelda'' games. After purchasing it for 800 Rupees, it can be upgraded by [[Mother Maiamai]] by collecting ten baby [[Maiamai]]. This turns it into the [[Nice Boomerang]], which functions the same, but with increased speed, and a triple throw.
===Tri Force Heroes===
The Boomerang appears as an available item in many stages, beginning with the first section of the [[Volcano]], the [[Blazing Trail]]. Like in past games, it can be used to stun or defeat enemies, hit switches, and retrieve distant items, including other Links. The boomerang can also be used to transfer fire between torches, similarly to its use in ''Phantom Hourglass'' and ''Spirit Tracks''. It can be upgraded by wearing the [[Boomeranger]] costume, which grants it increased range, size, and damage output, as well as the ability to carry two items at once.
===Breath of the Wild===
The Boomerang makes a return in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]'', but this time in many forms, including the standard Boomerang, [[Giant Boomerang]], [[Lizal Boomerang]], and more. This weapon can be used as a sword, through means of melee attacks, but can also be thrown like a traditional boomerang. If it hits a solid object, it will lose all momentum and drop to the ground. In order to retrieve a boomerang after it has been thrown, the player must hit the A button as it nears Link. In the case of this not happening, it will keep going for a small distance and drop to the ground, where it can be picked up. The standard Boomerang can be found in the [[Pumaag Nitae Shrine]].

The '''Spring Loaded Hammer''' is an unusual hammer found in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]''. It has a base power of just 1, and can be obtained by visiting [[Kilton]]'s shop; the [[Fang and Bone]]. He sells this item for 199 [[Mon]]. It is more of a novelty item rather than a respectable weapon, due to its often humiliating effect and low damage output.

Many NPCs that Link encounters throughout [[Hyrule]] are equipped with the Traveler's Sword. Some enemies will also wield them, such as [[Bokoblin]]s and [[Stalkoblin]]s in [[Hyrule Field]] and [[West Necluda]]. It is a good weapon while still on the [[Great Plateau]], but is quickly exceeded by the [[Soldier's Broadsword]] and other higher tier weapons.
