Rito Village Main Quest: Boarding Vah Medoh!

Okay, so, while this post will not go over the dungeon itself, as that will be saved for another day. I will be going over the quest leading up to Vah Medoh, and some things that happen after it. And for anyone wondering why I decided to start with Vah Medoh, it's mainly because it's the one I have the most ideas for! Now let's jump straight into it!

Again! I know people reading this probably already know, but everything written here is my AU/rewrite! Unless stated otherwise, none of this is canon to Breath of the Wild, outside of locations! (Excluding dungeons, minus the Divine Beasts)

So rather than the Hebra Divine Beast/Dungeon quest, starting at Rito Village, it will start at Tabantha Hills (or on the path between Piper Ridge and the Rayne Highlands if you're coming from that direction) where you will encounter Tulin for the first time.

During this encounter Link will fight off some monsters that were attacking Tulin, with Tulin dealing the final shot on whichever enemy is left. Afterwards Tulin will explain that he's trying to learn to fight to be like his dad and help protect his village.

This conversation will transition into a cutscene where the Calamity spews out malice that looks like it's going to hit them.

If Link has Mipha's Grace, then after the Malie hits him and Tulin, he will use Mipha's Grace on Tulin, while taking damage himself. If Link has Daruk's Protection, then he will activate it and use it to protect himself and Tulin. If Link has neither then both get hit and nothing else happens.

After the Malice is spewed, Teba will fly in as one last monster will appear (If Link has Urbosa's Fury then he will use that on the monster, with Teba taking it out in one hit. If Link does not have Urbosa's Fury, then Teba will take out the monster with a bomb arrow, doing damage to Link if he does not have Daruk's Protection.) with Teba taking it out.

Teba will talk to Link and thank him for helping to protect his son before heading back to Rito Village. If it is between the hours 7 PM and 6 AM in game, then Tulin will ask his dad to let Link go with them, as to help him avoid the monsters that appear at night, fast traveling Link to Rito Village (This offer can be denied). If it is outside of those hours, then they will leave Link to walk to Rito Village himself.

Whichever path that is taken will still lead to the same basic outcome, with Link having to track down Teba after getting to Rito Village. (If the night path is chosen, then Tulin will have some extra dialogue on how it was fun to hang out with Link, and how he'd like to do it again sometime) If you talk to the village chief, after the normal dialogue when you have the divine beast quest started, they will mention an old tool they heard had been used by those that had constructed the Divine Beast, that was apparently hidden away in the Hebra region.

This item is completely optional, but does make Vah Medoh easier in this version. It's essentially the grappling hook from Wind Waker, and can be found inside a dungeon near Lake Kilsie, opposite of the Sturnida Secret Hot Springs. This dungeon would essentially be similar to the Wind Temple in TOTK, at least in puzzles, with a single boss/mini boss at the end where you get the grappling hook.

Outside of puzzles in Vah Medoh that will be discussed in its own post, the Grappling hook would be able to be used to grab items from afar, do minor damage to enemies (around 5 atk), and grab onto trees and allow Link to climb up it. There would be a distance limit, and it would use up stamina, but not as much as normal climbing.

Whether Link gets the grappling hook or not, events would continue from there similar to canon BOTW, Teba will be able to be found at the flight range. However, during this meeting, Link will gain the memory of his first time meeting Revali (I don't have too much of an idea for this, so for now it's pretty much the same as the canon one, just earlier on) after which, you'll do the training thing with Teba, and he'd offer to fly Link up to Vah Medoh. (If the player has gotten to Vah Medoh's altitude within the Hebra or Tabantha regions, Teba will also make an off hand remark about it probably being safer if he flies Link up.)

A mini Easter egg that, while difficult, could be found in this au is after shooting Vah Medoh's canons, if Link/the player manages to avoid getting hit while on Teba, then he will give Link either 10 normal arrows or 10 bomb arrows, depend on which ones lower. And will also offer Link a low level healing potion, if he leaves Vah Medoh mid dungeon while damaged. This will not happen of Teba takes any damage while aiding Link in shooting down the canons.

Another easter egg would be that, after the dungeon is complete, if Link has gone to Zora's domain and has only started the Vah Ruta quest, Teba will give Link 10 Shock arrows, saying “He'll probably need them where he's going.”

Anyways! That concludes the info dump for today! I hope you all have a wonderful day or night, and stay safe!

Pt 2 and the final part of LL Megatrons conversation with an aware G1 Starscream

this one wasn’t as dramatic as the first part but there’s only so much emotional vulnerability Screamer can do with his new free will heheh, thanks for all of the comments encouraging me! I’ve never drawn longer comics like these before and it’s pretty fun so hopefully I can improve with the next comic I make!

[stealingpotatoes]

I saw this on twitter and the idea of this happening sounds absolutely hilarious. Like Han, Ventress and Merrin just direct Thrawn to a DMV and make him coming to dathomir absolute hell (I also accidentally sent this ask to someone else 😅)

LMAO???? i take back everything I've ever said about legends, this is everything to me. nothing but respect for MY king of dathomir send that gay blueberry to parking ticket superhell

[lumiink]

in a turn of events that surprises no one, i have once again been thinking about them

[spicyraeman]

im struggling but by god im trying

[egophiliac]

As someone who hasn’t played the twst game very long I just got into it. I wanted to know about events? Like do some not come back? For example do the Masquerade, Port, Beanfest, Ghost bride, starsending events. Do those come back? I hear people say how they missed their chance to get this great card like as if it won’t ever come back and then someone on Reddit will say something like “Oh beanfest happened twice on the JP server” so which events have gotten reruns so far? I would ask about more recent ones like the Easter one but idk if it’s too recent to know if get rerun or if they clarify that it won’t come back? I was really sad to find out about the Silk outfits I missed out on when they visit the scalding sands. I also was really sad to find out i missed out on the anniversary cards because I didn’t play the game yet. I wish they would add the anniversary cards to the store at least…I want to be apart of the celebration :’)

I was looking in the shop and saw all the different groovy items you need to groovify event cards and this question just came to me so I had the urge to ask someone…

welcome to Twst! 🎉 it is a bit confusing to jump right into, especially because. they're not always consistent. :') it sounds like you're probably playing on Eng, which I'm less familiar with, but I'll try based on what I know! (I also don't always remember everything, so somebody please correct me if I get something wrong!)

first, I do recommend the Twst wiki.gg, which seems to stay pretty up-to-date on events for both the Eng and JP versions! it's a great resource for when you want to see if/when an event ran or rerun. in general, I believe that the Eng version only does reruns that have already happened in JP, so if JP has a rerun that hasn't happened yet in Eng, they should get it too eventually! on the other hand, I don't think either version has ever rerun an event more than once. :( BUT this doesn't mean you're entirely out of luck, because:

anniversary events (March for JP, January for Eng) will usually offer a chance to get both an older event SSR and an older birthday SSR in the shop, via buying a special item with exchange currency (which you get by doing pulls on the anniversary gacha, I think you need to do 100-150 pulls for enough currency to buy the item to exchange for an SSR). only SSRs though, and you're limited to one each (one birthday, one event). so if there's an SSR you REALLY want and it's already had its rerun, it's probably worth planning to save up some keys for!

as for actual reruns, they seem to come in a few different flavors:

straight-up rerun, no changes or extra cards

unchanged event story, with a new SSR of a character who wasn't in the story (e.g. Applepom Jamil)

slightly rewritten event story that includes a new SSR (e.g. Ghost Marriage, they don't seem to do this anymore though)

completely new event story that acts as either a sequel or alternate-universe version of the original (e.g. Beans Day part 2, Fairy Gala IF) (though this is pretty rare and might actually count as a separate event, rather than a rerun?)

Master Chef/Culinary Crucible events have never gotten reruns (though they might start now that we've finally gotten through all the characters in JP, time will tell). birthday and Halloween events will also rerun the previous version in addition to the new one -- for instance, Eng should be getting a Glorious Masquerade rerun this year, followed by the new (Playful Land) Halloween event. and a birthday campaign will, in addition to the new card, have a separate pickup for the previous year's birthday card.

for the specific ones you mentioned -- I think Beanfest, Ghost Bride, Fireworks, and Starsending have already rerun in Eng, so those most likely will not be rerun again (at least not anytime soon). Masquerade should be coming back for you guys this Halloween, and Portfest JUST got its rerun in JP, so that should be coming too sometime in the future! (no new SSR though, alas, I was really hoping for a little marching band sailor boy Leona. 😔) the Easter event is the White Rabbit Fest, right? that one hasn't gotten a rerun in JP yet either, so it's still on the table!

all that said, it's entirely possible they'll change the rules at some point and start doing more reruns/chances to get older event cards, especially since the game's been going on for a few years now and some cards haven't been available for a pretty long time! there's only one card that they said was for-realsies limited-time-only and wouldn't ever be available again -- Platinum Grim, since he was to celebrate the 100th anniversary -- so. there's always a little bit of hope for everything else. :D (fairy gala Ortho PLEASE COME BACK SOB)
