A Battle for Time^[1] is an event that is part of the Zelda Timeline. The event occurs during the climax of Ocarina of Time where Link confronts Ganondorf.

Overview

During the final act of Ocarina of Time, Link will scale Ganon's Tower, and will confront him. Here the Triforce is reunited, as Link, Zelda, and Ganondorf are all present in the same location. The battle takes place with the fate of Hyrule changing, depending on the outcome. If Link falls in battle to Ganondorf, this leads to the Decline Timeline. If Link is triumphant in battle, it leads to either the Adult Timeline or Child Timeline.
