 ====Zant's Story====
-Once Link has gathered all the Mirror Shards, entered the [[Palace of Twilight]], and confronted Zant, he will again hear more of how Zant got his powers.

 After Link has defeated Zant, Zant will reveal to Link and Midna that his god, Ganon, has already descended and been reborn in the World of Light.<ref name="Quote1">{{Cite|TP|1754|[[Zant]]}}</ref> He continues by showing good faith in Ganon, saying that as long as Ganon survives, he will resurrect Zant without cease.<ref name="Quote1"/> This mini-scene shows how much Zant really praises Ganon, which can be interpreted as Ganon playing Zant so he can be revived in Hyrule, or as a true relationship that has mutual feelings.

 ====Confrontation====
-Ganon is finally confronted by Link at the very end of ''Twilight Princess'', where he is physically seen for the first time. This confrontation happens at the highest tower of [[Hyrule Castle (Twilight Princess)|Hyrule Castle]], in the [[Throne Room]]. Ganon can be found sitting on the throne, with [[Princess Zelda]] levitating above him, in the middle of the Triforce statue. He arrogantly introduces himself by welcoming Link and Midna to ''his'' castle.<ref>{{Cite|TP|1767|Ganon}}</ref> After a dramatic scene of Ganon standing up, Ganon begins his speech by making fun of Midna's people, saying it was very pathetic that they defied the gods with ''petty'' magic only to be cast aside.<ref>{{Cite|TP|1770|Ganon}}</ref> He continues by saying the anguish felt by the Twili people acted as his nourishment, as their hatred ''bled across the void'' and awakened him.<ref>{{Cite|TP|1771|Ganon}}</ref><ref>{{Cite|TP|1772|Ganon}}</ref> He explains why, in his opinion, Midna's people didn't succeed; it was because they lacked true power.<ref>{{Cite|TP|1773|Ganon}}</ref> The kind of power those chosen by the gods wield.<ref>{{Cite|TP|1774|Ganon}}</ref> He continues by saying that someone with the type of power would make a suitable king, while at the same time holding up his right hand, which has the marking of the Triforce of Power.<ref>{{Cite|TP|1775|Ganon}}</ref> After Midna vowes to deny Ganon what he desires,<ref>{{Cite|TP|1779|[[Midna]]}}</ref> Ganon redirects their attention to Zelda, who he refers to as their ''little friend''.<ref>{{Cite|TP|1783|Ganon}}</ref> He uses [[Twilight]]-magic to possess Zelda, and this begins the epic four-phase battle that concludes ''Twilight Princess''.

-After Link completes the four and final phase of the battle by stabbing Ganon in the middle of his chest with the [[Master Sword]], Ganon states his final words. He says to Link to not think that this is the end.<ref>{{Cite|TP|1819|Ganon}}</ref> He explains that the history of light and shadow will be written in blood.<ref>{{Cite|TP|1820|Ganon}}</ref> The scenes continues by showing the Triforce of Power leave Ganon, at which point Zant will appear, in more of an image rather then physically. He leans his head to the right, with a crack. This seemingly ends Ganon, as his eyes roll to the back of his head, and he seizes movement, yet still standing. This is the end of Ganon in ''Twilight Princess'', but it is unconfirmed if he died or not.
