Storyline
As a young boy, Link was tricked by Ganondorf, the King of the Gerudo Thieves. The evil human used Link to gain access to the Sacred Realm, where he placed his tainted hands on the Triforce and transformed the beautiful Hylian landscape into a barren wasteland. Link was determined to fix the problems he helped to create, so with the help of Rauru he traveled through time gathering the powers of the Seven Sages. After a grueling quest, Link eventually faced Ganondorf, and watched as the wicked soul transformed into Ganon. When the battle was over, Link had successfully sealed Ganon in the Dark World.
