Princess Ruto,(OoTOcarina of Time)[3] also known as simplyRuto,(HWHyrule Warriors)[11] is a recurring character inThe Legend of Zelda series. She is the daughter and only child ofKing Zora, the ruler of the Sea Zora population residing inHyrule, and serves as the attendant of the Zoras' patron deityLord Jabu-Jabu, preparing his meals.[12] As a child, Ruto appears to be a tomboy and is shown to be very strong-willed and stubborn even in the face of danger, a trait she would temper and yet benefit from in her adult years when danger once again threatened her people.[13] Though she initially shows a selfish streak in her youth,[14] she grows to become much more benevolent in her adult years, especially after she is awakened to the knowledge that she is theSage of Water that guards theWater Temple beneathLake Hylia.

It is implied that Ruto's mother passed away some time before the events ofOcarina of Time, though she gave Ruto theZora's Sapphire at some point in her youth. Ruto's mother told her that the stone serves as the so-called "Zora's Engagement Ring" by tradition, and instructed her to give it to the man that would one day become her husband.[8]

Princess Ruto
Zora's princess, Ruto is very much a tomboy.

Princess Ruto is first mentioned whenLink comes toZora's Domain in search of theSpiritual Stone of Water inOcarina of Time.[15] When Link arrives, Zora's Domain has been thrown into a state of disarray with the sudden disappearance of Ruto, the Princess of theZoras. After learning of Ruto's disappearance and earning theSilver Scale from theDiving Game, Link makes use of the object to investigate Princess Ruto's disappearance, as her father does not seem to be able to give any attention to Link's quest while his daughter remains missing.[16] Taking the shortcut leading from Zora's Domain toLake Hylia, Link discovers a bottle with a note inside it at the bottom of the lake. The note is signed with Ruto's name and reveals that she has been swallowed by the Zoras' patron deity,Lord Jabu-Jabu, and requires rescue.[17] Showing the letter toKing Zora, the Zora ruler commands Link to rescue his daughter and allows him access to see Lord Jabu-Jabu.[18] It is later revealed that Ruto accidentally dropped the Spiritual Stone of Waterinside Lord Jabu-Jabu and lost it.[19] Instead of getting help, Ruto chose to go deeper within Lord Jabu-Jabu hoping to find the stone on her own.

Link finds Princess Ruto fairly quickly upon his entry into Lord Jabu-Jabu's belly.[20] The feisty Zora princess denies knowledge of the letter Link had found in Lake Hylia and initially tries to deny any need for assistance, telling Link she could care less about her father's worry and ordering him to leave her.[2] However, Link continues to pursue Ruto, attempting to convince her to either come with him or accept his help in recovering what she had lost.[21] Ruto eventually reconsiders her opposition to the idea and accepts Link's assistance, deciding to have him carry her around Lord Jabu-Jabu's interior while they search for the Spiritual Stone of Water together.[22] Eventually, the two find the stone resting upon a raised platform deep within Lord Jabu-Jabu's belly. Link tosses Ruto up onto the platform, where she recovers the stone,[19] though this causes the platform to rise into the chamber above them with Ruto still on it. The platform descends again carrying aBig Octo, which Link is forced to battle. After defeating the beast, Link jumps onto the platform and rises into the chamber above, but finds no trace of Ruto.

Ruto and Link after escaping Inside Jabu-Jabu's Belly

Eventually, Link is forced to battle againstBarinade and, once he defeats it, Princess Ruto is shown waiting for him. The visibly shaken Zora princess scolds Link for the time it took him to rescue her, but the two are soon transported outside via the portal.[23] Once outside Lord Jabu-Jabu's belly, Ruto's demeanor toward Link changes entirely, with the Zora princess having grown quite fond of him and asking him what reward he would ask for rescuing her and helping her recover the Spiritual Stone.[24][25] Link requests the Spiritual Stone of Water, and Ruto happily hands it over to him, calling it her most "precious possession" and revealing that the stone effectively acts as the "Zora Engagement Ring",[15] meaning that she now considers the two of them engaged to be married. Despite this, Link is unaware of his engagement to Ruto, only knowing that he had finally obtained the three Spiritual Stones.[26]

Ruto awakening as the Sage of Water

Seven years after Link is placed into suspended animation by theMaster Sword, evil returns to Zora's Domain when Ganondorf uses the power granted to him by theTriforce of Power and causes the entire area and its inhabitants to be frozen under a thick layer ofIce. This fate also befalls Princess Ruto initially, but she is rescued from beneath the cursed Ice bySheik. She then goes to theWater Temple in the hope of finding a way to save her people from being eternally frozen.[27] This is where she and Link meet again for the first time in seven years. Although Ruto is happy to see him, she is aware that this is not a time to talk about love. Ruto asks Link to assist her in saving the Zoras by destroying the monster at the heart of the temple and informs him of the workings of the Water Temple.[28] After this, Ruto leads Link into one of the temple's upper chambers but mysteriously vanishes. Link does not see her again until he defeats the Giant Aquatic AmeobaMorpha, the monster responsible for the sad state of both Zora's Domain and the nearly dry Lake Hylia. Inside theTemple of Light, Link learns that Ruto is the newSage of Water that guards the Water Temple. She tells Link that she still loves him, but their engagement must be put on indefinite hold due to her duty as a Sage, and he must continue his search forPrincess Zelda.[29] Right before he returns to Hyrule, Ruto gives him theWater Medallion,[30] and asks him to thank Sheik for saving her if he sees him again.[31]

Princess Ruto appears within the water room insideGanon's Castle after Link dispels theWater Barrier protecting the castle, where she urges Link onward to rescue the captive seventhSage and leader of the Sages, Princess Zelda. After Link defeatsGanondorf both in hisGerudo form and in the form of the Dark BeastGanon, Ruto combines her power with that of the other Sages to cast Ganondorf back into the taintedSacred Realm and to create a powerful seal that would imprison him there. She is last seen alongside several of the other Sages atopDeath Mountain, overlooking a jubilant Hyrule now freed of Ganondorf's evil tyranny.

Minor References

Ruto's window

The Wind Waker

While Ruto does not physically appear inThe Wind Waker, one of the stained glass windows inHyrule Castle's basement, where theMaster Sword now rests, depicts her as theSage of Water. The fact that the Rito evolved from the Zora combined with the fact thatLaruto, another Zora sage with a very similar name, isMedli's ancestor, has led some to believe that Laruto is a relative or descendant of Ruto.

Phantom Hourglass

Treasures calledRuto Crowns appear inPhantom Hourglass, where they are said to have been worn by aZora princess.[32]

Spirit Tracks

Ruto Crowns reappear inSpirit Tracks, where they are said to have been worn by many princesses of theZora royal family.[33]

Breath of the Wild

InBreath of the Wild, the fifthStone Monument, entitled theHistory of the Zora, Part Five, details the story of Ruto.[34] She lived in a time long before theGreat Calamity and the creation ofDivine Beast Vah Ruta.[35] It is known that she was the attendant to the Zora's patron deity and was widely beloved.[36]

When anevil man threatenedZora's Domain, Ruto awoke as aSage and fought against him with theprincess and thehero of legend.[37] Her achievements are forever etched into the history ofHyrule Kingdom, passed on and remembered by the Zora.[38] Divine Beast Vah Ruta, which would later be piloted by anotherZora princess, was named in honor of Ruto.[39]

Princess Ruto is also mentioned inMipha's Diary when the Zora princess,Mipha recalled the story of Ruto, who had fallen in love with a Hylian knight, who is the Link in her time, which gave her some hope for confessing her feelings for Link,[40] and when it came the occasion that Link is traveling without Princess Zelda at his side, she calls upon her for courage.[41]

Tears of the Kingdom

InTears of the Kingdom,Sidon recounts Ruto's story on aStone Monument titledLearnings of the Zora, Part Two, similar to the above writings fromBreath of the Wild. Sidon ends with saying that as Ruto's descendant, he shall carry on her legacy and bravery.[10]

Other Appearances

Ocarina of Time (Himekawa)

The following section is not part of the Zelda canon and should not be taken as such.

Ruto largely fills the same role in theOcarina of Time manga byAkira Himekawa as she did in the actual game, though there are some slight differences that can be seen in her character when comparing the two. In the story of the manga, Ruto is swallowed by Jabu-Jabu intentionally, as she hopes to escape an engagement to a suitor presented to her by her father whom she deems unacceptable. After Link saves her, she grows quite fond of him and grants him the Zora's Sapphire in rebellion against the marriage her father was attempting to arrange for her. As in the game, she comes to truly believe she and Link are destined for marriage following these events. In this take on the story, she seems to be far less tolerant of her father, ill concealing that she considers him annoying. She also makes a habit of saying 'Zora' at the end of her sentences.

Hyrule Warriors

The following section is not part of the Zelda canon and should not be taken as such.

InHyrule Warriors, Princess Ruto appears as a playableWarrior. She is based on her slightly redesigned adult form inOcarina of Time 3D. She wields theZora Scale, which she uses as a medium for water magic. Similarly toLana, she can be considered a wizardly character, as her moveset often consists of area-of-effect attacks, such as forming whirlpools, a giant sphere of water which she uses to trap her enemies and unleashing wide splashes. She has a unique mechanic where executing her combos causes a blue gauge to fill. At any point, she can use the gauge to fire off long-range waves of water that plow through enemies.

InLegend Mode, Princess Ruto first appears in the Scenario "Land of Myth", where she has been taken hostage byDarunia and held inDeath Mountain. TheHyrulean Forces, led byImpa andSheik, come to her rescue and defeat Darunia. It is then discovered that Darunia was being manipulated by an outside force. Princess Ruto, along with Darunia, then accompany the Hyrulean Forces as they venture to locate and close theGate of Souls inLake Hylia in the Scenario "The Water Temple". Princess Ruto assists the Hyrulean Forces by opening the floodgates allowing passage to the Water Temple. She then shortly leaves to find theLens of Truth, in order to reveal the true identity of the falsePrincess Zelda. She is however soon captured by Zelda. After being rescued, she hands the Lens of Truth to Sheik before retreating from the battle.

Ruto otherwise does not play a large role in Legend Mode by default. She, however, will appear in place of Zelda, Sheik, or Darunia should any one of them be chosen in a Scenario they appear in. In "The Sacred Sword", Ruto will be the one to activate the Fire and Water Statue if Darunia is being played as. In "Liberation of the Triforce", Ruto will be the one to grant Link theLight Arrows during the final battle if Zelda is picked.

When defeated in battle, Princess Ruto may occasionally drop herEarrings as a silverMaterial, and rarely herScale as a gold Material.
