[[File:Link_Artwork_1_(A_Link_to_the_Past).png|160px|left]][[File:Link-Alttp-Sprite.png|right]]Link is a young boy who lives with his Uncle in Hyrule and is the male protagonist. He finds himself thrust into a quest to save Hyrule after one night when he begins to hear a girl's voice in his head telling him to come to the dungeon of the castle and rescue her. He wakes up to see his [[Link's Uncle|Uncle]] sitting at the table with a sword and shield in his hands. His Uncle tells him to not leave the house and that he will be back in the morning.

He hears the girl's voice again that tells him to follow the flower path that leads to a secret passageway that leads inside the castle walls. He follows the path and finds a hole underneath a bush at the end of it. He falls down the hole and is shocked to find his Uncle wounded from an apparent battle with the guards. He goes to him and his Uncle scolds him for not listening to what he said earlier about staying at home. Nonetheless, he gives Link the [[Sword]] and [[Shield]] that he possesses and tells Link how to use the [[Spin Attack]], a secret technique passed down their people, the [[Knights of Hyrule]]. He implores Link to save Princess Zelda and then he falls into unconsciousness. Link leaves his Uncle and enters the Castle.

After freeing her from her cell, he takes her back through the castle and they use a secret passageway located in the throne room to reach the [[Sanctuary (A Link to the Past)|Sanctuary]]. Once Princess Zelda is in the safe hands of the Sage, Link leaves and continues his quest by searching for the wise man named [[Sahasrahla (A Link to the Past)|Sahasrahla]]. After getting directions from [[Sahasrahla's Grandson]], he locates the wise man in a temple located near the [[Eastern Palace (A Link to the Past)|Eastern Palace]].
