Story

This game's story is believed to take place after The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask, when Zelda sent Link back in time to live out his childhood in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time.

The story unfolds in Ordon Village, a small farmering town in Southern Ordin Province. One day a character named Rusl gets instructions to deliver a gift to the Royal Family of Hyrule, but he offers the job to Link instead. Link agrees to deliver the gift, and gets ready to leave in two days. The next day, Link is given a Fishing Rod and uses it to catch a fish for the cat that wouldn't leave the pond. He then gets a Bottle in return.

Link saves up money to buy a Slingshot, and then shows the local kids how to use it. After the lesson, Link is given a Wooden Sword, and shows the kids how to use that as well. This acts as a kind of tutorial to get the player used to using the sword. After that lesson, a monkey comes out of the woods and the kids decide to chase it. Unfortunately, one of the kids (Talo) and the monkey gets caught in a trap and Link has to go save them.

(The remaining of this section is in need of a major re-write/cleanup)

The next morning, after herding goats, Link is ready to go. Link's friend Ilia notices that Epona is injured and takes her away to Ordon Spring to heal her. When Link goes to the spring to get her back, the Bulblin King and some Bulblin Riders come crashing through the gate. They kidnap Ilia and the other children, and scare Epona away. Link is knocked unconscious by a rider, and left there alone. Link soon wakes up and runs across the bridge towards the woods looking for Ilia and the kids. He is pulled through a newly placed black wall by a Twilight Beast, who drops him when a Triforce Symbol appears on his hand. Soon after entering the Twilight, Link turns into a wolf, when he goes unconscious again and is dragged away. Link is taken to Hyrule Castle (although he doesn't know it at the time) and imprisoned in the cellars. There, he meets Midna, a mysterious character who doesn't fully reveal who she is until much later in the game. She help Link escape, but tells him he must obey everything she says. He finally makes it to the top f the tallest tower, where he meets Princess Zelda for the first time. She tells him through a cutscene of the recent battle that ensued in Hyrule. How Zant, an evil sorcerer, and his Twilight Beasts killed many soldiers, and how she finally was forced to surrender.

After leaving Zelda, Link and Midna escape from the Twilight and return to Ordon, where they acquire a sword and a shield, the very things Link was originally supposed to bring to Hyrule Castle as gifts. On their way back to the Twilight, Link and Midna are stopped outside Ordon Spring where they meet Ordona, the first Light Spirit in the game. There Link fights his first Twilight Beast. Link and Midna then go to the Twilight-covered Faron Woods where they meet the shattered remains of the Light Spirit Faron. He gives them the Vessel of Light so they can find the Tears of Light and restore light to the Faron Province. After that, they meet the revitalized Faron, and Link finds out that he is the chosen hero of destiny.

Link and Midna then go to the forest temple where they get the Gale Boomerang and defeat Diababa. After that, they are granted the first Fused Shadow. Faron then tells them to go to the Eldin Province to the west (Wii) or east (GCN). On his way there, Link is stopped just outside the Wall of Twilight by The Postman. Continuing on, Link and Midna go into the Twilight and find Link's Wooden Sword, which he gave to Talo awhile back. Since Link is a wolf at this time, he can smell the kids; he follows the scent to a broken bridge and three Twilight Beasts.

After going to Faron Woods to recover the bridge, Link and Midna continue on to Kakariko Village, where they find the shattered form of the Light Spirit Eldin. Once again, they search Kakariko and Death Mountain for the Tears of Light, this time to restore light to Eldin Province. After doing so, Link is reuinited with the kids at last, but one person is still missing. Where's Ilia? Anyway, Link talks to the kids and meets a new character, Renado, who tells Link about the Gorons at Death Mountain and how they are in an uncontrollable rage. After Link tries to go up to Death Mountain and is knocked back by a Goron, Renado tells him that Bo, the Mayor of Ordon, could beat the Gorons in strength contests.

Link begins preparing to leave Kakariko, but then Epona comes riding in with two Bulblins on her back. After handling her, Link can ride her to Ordon. When he meets with Bo, Link gets a quick sumo lesson and Bo gives him the Iron Boots. With these in hand, Link returns to Death Mountain, fighting off the Gorons along to way, until he finally reaches a large room with lots of Gorons who are prepared to fight. The Goron Elder, Gor Coron, comes out and tells Link that if he can win against him in a contest of strength, he will grant him entry into the Goron mines to save the Goron Patriarch, Darbus. Link defeats Gor Coron in a sumo match and is allowed into the Goron Mines; inside, he finds the Bow and gets the three pieces of the key to Darbus's room from the other three Goron elders (Gor Amoto, Gor Ebizo, and Gor Liggs). When he gets to Darbus's room, Darbus turns into a monster called Fyrus. By defeating Fyrus, Link saves Darbus and takes the Fused Shadow that corrupted him.

Link then travels to the Lanayru Province, which is also covered in Twilight. There, he meets the Light Spirit Lanayru and saves the province from Twilight. After doing so, he is reunited with Ilia, who is in the care of the bartender Telma. The two of them are taking care of a collapsed Zora child name Prince Ralis. Link quickly escorts them to Kakariko village where Ralis and Ilia are put into Renado’s care; Ilia has lost her memory, and apparently retrieving it is no simple task. Prince Ralis's dead mother Rutela then grants Link the Zora Armor.

Link heads to Lake Hylia where he enters the Water Temple. Here, he gets the clawshot and defeats Morpheel, granting him the third and final Fused Shadow. With these in hand, Link and Midna return to Lanayru Spring, where they learn the story of the Dark Interlopers. At the spring, they quite literally bump into Zant, who hurts Midna by trapping her in the Light World even though the light is not good for her. Link and Midna then return to Hyrule Castle, where Zelda grants Midna the power to survive in the Light World.

Link and Midna go back to Faron Woods to a hidden portion called the Sacred Grove. Here, they find the Legendary Blade of Evil’s Bane, the Master Sword. They then go to the Gerudo Desert, which is the location of the Arbiter’s Grounds. Here, they defeat Stallord, who is powered by Zant. Afterwards, they head outside to find the Mirror of Twilight, which is broken into four pieces. They also meet the Sages and learn about Ganondorf, who apparently holds the Triforce of Power. The Sages sent him into the Twilight Realm after a failed execution.

Next, Link and Midna go to Snowpeak, the home of Yeto and Yeta, to recover a cursed mirror shard that possessed Yeta, turning her into Blizzeta. Next, they return to the Sacred Grove and enter the Temple of Time, where they find the Dominion Rod and recover another mirror shard from Armoghoma. They then return to Kakariko, where they meet Shad, who tells them about the sky beings known as the Oocca.

Gor Coron tells Link to go to the Hidden Village near the Bridge of Eldin. There, Link and Midna find Impaz, who is the last of the Sheikah. She gives Link the Skybook, which allows Shad to read a word that moves the statue in the basement. Link gets a wooden statue from Castle Town, as well as a Horse Call from Impaz, which, combined, give Ilia her memory back. Link goes back to Kakariko and shows the book to Shad, who gives him the location of the remaining owl statues around Hyrule. Link goes and moves them all, restoring the full word, which removes the seal on the owl statue in Kakariko. Link moves it and finds a cannon, which allows him to access the City in the Sky, home of the Oocca.

Link defeats the Dragon Argarok, thus granting him the final mirror shard. With all three shards in hand, Link and Midna return to the Mirror of Twilight and enter the Palace of Twilight. Here, Link recovers the two Sols, thus bringing the power of light to the Master Sword. Link and Midna then go to defeat Zant once and for all, but find out that he is just a puppet and the real bad guy is Ganondorf. Link and Midna return to Hyrule Castle once more, where they face off with Ganondorf. Link stabs him in the stomach with the Master Sword, which finishes him. Midna is then revealed to be a beautiful princess. She, Link, and Zelda return to the Mirror Chamber and say their final goodbyes; as Midna leaves, she shatters the mirror of Twilight into a million pieces so that nothing can enter or leave the Twilight Realm ever again.
