Zeltik's "Echoes of Wisdom" explication video-essay is up

My favorite ZeldaTuber, [youtube.com profile] Zeltik, posted his close-reading explication of the lore and story of Echoes of Wisdom yesterday. I enjoyed it immensely! He did exactly what I was hoping he would. It's not only as good and as connective as any of his previous game condensations -- which I hesitate to call "summaries," as they are much richer than that word implies -- it hit a home-run right off the top with one specific major canon lore and fan theory connection that I had not yet put together on my own. Key into lock. Lost puzzle piece found under the table where it clearly was waiting all along. Chef's kiss!

When you're ready to be utterly spoiled on everything that matters most in Echoes of Wisdom, I recommend Zeltik's "Lore and Story of 'Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom' Explained" (YouTube, 55:40).

(Next, I'm looking forward to [youtube.com profile] TheLadyOfLore's take...)
