Zelda had been trying to unlock the power to seal away the Calamity as the reincarnation of the Goddess [[Hylia]] by praying at the spiritual springs. Frustrated with her lack of success, Zelda On her 17th birthday, she visited the one remaining spring in a final attempt to awaken her powers, but was again unsuccessful. Just as she was bringing this news to Link and the other Champions, Ganon returned. He took control of the Guardians and the Divine Beasts, killed King Rhoam and the four Divine Beast Champions, and left much of Hyrule in ruin. Unable to access the sealing power, Zelda and Link retreat from the castle. As an army of Guardians approached Link and Zelda in the aftermath of Ganon's attack, Zelda finally unlocked her sealing power out of desperation to protect the gravely wounded and exhausted Link. After Zelda destroyed the approaching Guardians, she found Link collapsed at her side and had him taken to the [[Shrine of Resurrection]], where after a deep sleep he would recover and be ready to fight Ganon once again. Princess Zelda returned the sacred [[Master Sword#Breath of the Wild|Master Sword]] to its resting spot in the [[Korok Forest]], and used her power to contain Ganon within [[Hyrule Castle#Breath of the Wild|Hyrule Castle]] until Link awakened. | |||

A century | A century after the events of the return Calamity Ganon and death of the champions and king, Link woke from his slumber in the Shrine of Resurrection to a mysterious voice, not knowing who or where he was. After walking out onto the [[Great Plateau]], he met an [[Old Man#Breath of the Wild|Old Man]], later revealed as the spirit of King Rhoam in disguise. The King tells Link that Princess Zelda has been gradually losing her power to contain Ganon, who will soon break free of his prison.
