EX Treasure: Royal Guard Rumors Rewards
Collecting all three pieces nets you the Royal Guard Set. While it's arguably one of the more visually appealing sets in the game, it only provides medicore defense and cannot be enhanced or dyed.
Wearing all pieces of the set gives Link a bonus to his Charge Attacks. It's a good armor to use early in the game, especially if you find yourself surrounded by many enemies.
