The story of the Ancient Hero is depicted on the [[Calamity Ganon Tapestry]], where he, with the aid of [[Sheikah]] technology and the magic of the Princess, smote the Calamity, leaving it sealed for 10,000 years. As with the four original Champions and the historic Princess, this screen was the only visual representation of his existence, leaving his identity largely unknown. Within the tapestry, he bears clothing resembling the [[Champion's Tunic]] worn later by [[Link (Breath of the Wild)|Link]], his distant future successor.

The Ancient Hero is also mentioned by [[Kass]] in a series of ancient songs written by his mentor, whom was a Sheikah court poet secretly in love with Princess Zelda and jealous of Link. Kass's mentor later came to respect Link and created a song regarding the Ancient Hero, Champions, and Princess of 10,000 years ago in hope his efforts will help Link when he must save Zelda himself in the present time. The ancient song recounts the same history described in the tapestry, describing the Ancient Hero as a fearless knight and detailing the same plan eventually used by Link and the Champions (sans the assistance of the Guardians).{{Ref|''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]''.|The kingdom of Hyrule is a vast and storied land,

The Ancient Hero is seen again, as Impa's Tapestry is used in a cinematic that describes the unfurling events. In this instance, his visual seems to stand in as a representative of the modern day [[Link]], as the other figures on the Tapestry are used to convey the Champions of the second Calamity.
