You see, this tower is the perfect place to observe bird-men in their natural habitat.'' - '''Branli'''}} Branli doesn't understand how birds with such small wings, such as the Rito, can support their weight and maintain flight.

Branli is a character from Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom.

Breath of the Wild

Branli can be found on top of the Ridgeland Tower. He has dedicated his life to studying the Rito, which he refers to as the bird-men. He had been studying the bird-man in the area, but just happened to be in the location where the Ridgeland Tower is located when Link first caused all the towers to rise up.[1][2] Branli doesn't understand how birds with such small wings, such as the Rito, can support their weight and maintain flight.

When he realizes that Link too is on the tower, he assumes that Link is stuck as well and can't get down without hurting himself.[3] After learning that Link can glide down, he is excited as he thinks this could help his research. He hopes to understand the science of bird-man flight and wants to one day himself be a bird, capable of flight.[4]

Bird-Man Research Study

Main article: Bird-Man Research Study

When Link speaks with Branli, he can he participate in his research study, where Branli will see how far Link can fly.[5] This comes in the form of a mini-game where Link simply needs to glide as far away from the Ridgeland Tower as possible, without touching the ground. It will cost Link 20 rupees to participate, as a liability fee in case he injures himself.[6]

The best strategy is to glide southeast from the tower, towards the lower elevation within the Breach of Demise. Whatever the prevailing winds are at the time could influence the distance that Link can travel.[7] It does not matter how long Link is in the air, just simply how far away from the tower he can land.

While gliding, Link can use a Stamina Elixir, or eat a meal to increase his stamina. With just a few Stamina upgrades, Link should be able to glide and reach a distance over 600m, which will give him the top prize. Alternatively, Link can simply use Revali's Gale and with some stamina upgrades, can get to distances well over 800m.

Getting a score under 450m results in no reward at all.[8] A score between 450m and 600m will give Link a Purple Rupee.[9] A top score of over 600m will result in a Silver Rupee as a reward.[10]
