— Wortsworth gets very excited.
Wortsworth is a researcher who can be found in the Emergency Shelter beneath Lookout Landing. He talks about his research, which is in the ancient Hyrulean language.[1] The ancient Hyrulean is the basis for the modern language, but it would look like a bunch of gibberish to the average Hylean.[2] Wortsworth himself hasn't made too much progress in his studies as the source of ancient Hyrulean are few and far between.[3]
Wortsworth will also talk about the Zonai Survey Team's three big ideas.
After part of the Zonai Ruins falls from the Sky, Wortsworth is in charge of investigating them. He says the stone tablet is inscribed with ancient Hyrulean, but will need to travel to Kakariko Village for his notes to translate it. He copied down the inscriptions and is heading to the village. This begins the Messages from an Ancient Era side adventure, where he discovers the fallen stone tablet is one of thirteen, and asks Link to take photographs of the other twelve for him to translate.
