Hyrule Castle (Twilight Princess): Difference between revisions

The [[Boss]] of Hyrule Castle, who is also the Final Boss of ''Twilight Princess'', is a very common [[The Legend of Zelda (Series)|''The Legend of Zelda'']] villain, Ganondorf. The battle against Ganondorf has four different phases, all of which involve Ganondorf being in a different form. In the first phase, he possesses [[Princess Zelda|Zelda]] and uses her as a puppet to fight Link. During the second phase, Ganondorf transforms into his beast Ganon form, much similar to the final battle against Ganondorf in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]''. The third phase takes place on horseback in [[Hyrule Field]]. The fourth and final phase is a classic [[Sword]]-and-[[Shield]] battle, where the best swordsman will win. Ganondorf wields the [[Sages' Sword]], the same one the [[Ancient Sages]] tried to kill him with, which he kept after being imprisoned into the Twilight Realm. After hitting Ganondorf with the [[Hidden Skills#Ending Blow|Ending Blow]], he stands helplessly and uses his last breath to speak to the young hero. He tells Link to not think that this is the end,{{Ref|TP|1819|Ganondorf}} saying the history of light and shadow will be written in blood.{{Ref|TP|1820|Ganondorf}} It is then that the [[Triforce of Power]] leaves Ganondorf, and he ultimately dies.
