Several years after he had been caught, the time for the execution of the Demon Thief dawns. Ganondorf is chained to a giant stone slap atop the Arbiter's Grounds, within the [[Mirror Chamber]]. One of the Sages then draws a powerful blade and thrusts it into the abdomen of Ganondorf. However, by a "divine prank", the Triforce of Power shines bright on the hand of Ganondorf and he avoids death.
