Groose Role in Skyward Sword

Link's Rival

Zelda Skyward Sword HD - Groose - Link
Groose is Link's class rival in the Knight Academy who considers himself a romantic rival for Zelda.

Early in the game, he steals Link's loftwing in order to get the upper hand at the Wing Ceremony. When Link finds his loftwing, Groose denies having any involvement in the kidnapping.

After Zelda's disappearance, Groose blamed Link for what happened to her. He eventually leaves Skyloft to search for Zelda and he catches up with Link on the way to The Surface.

Groose's Role

Zelda Skyward Sword HD - Groose
After watching Link's battle with The Imprisoned , he gains respect for Link. He talks to the mysterious old woman (whom he calls Grannie) that resides in the Sealed Temple that tells him he has his own role to play in rescuing Zelda, and begins to regard Link not as a rival, but as an ally.

At Link's next battle with The Imprisoned, he helps link with the use of his catapult called the Groosenator, and helps him again when Faron Woods becomes flooded.

Endgame
