The losing battle resulted in Link becoming mortally wounded and being taken to the Shrine of Resurrection to recover while Zelda fended off Ganon alone while Link was dormant in the Slumber of Restoration. Revali was killed by Windblight Ganon, a being created by Ganon to seize control of Medoh. However, despite Princess Zelda's and the Champions' best effort, Ganon surprised them by corrupting and taking control of the Divine Beasts and Guardians. It was also during this time that Medoh served as the protector of the Rito people of Rito Village. The Rito Champion, Revali, was chosen to operate Medoh. In preparation of Ganon's return, the Divine Beasts were rediscovered after being excavated and four Champions were chosen to pilot them.
ġ10 years before the events of Breath of the Wild, the Royal Family of Hyrule was warned by a fortune teller of Ganon's return.
With their overwhelming technological might, their efforts were successful and Ganon was sealed away for a time. Four Champions were picked to pilot the Divine Beasts, who launched a full-scale attack on Ganon, headed by a princess and a hero wielding the Master Sword. The Divine Beast Vah Medoh was created over 10,000 years ago by the Sheikah, along with the other three Divine Beasts and Guardians, to combat Calamity Ganon.
