One day, an evil army attacked this peaceful little kingdom and stole the [[Triforce of Power]]. This army was led by [[Ganon]], the powerful Prince of Darkness who sought to plunge the World into fear and darkness under his rule. Fearing his wicked rule, [[Zelda|Princess Zelda]], the princess of this kingdom, split the [[Triforce of Wisdom]] into eight fragments and hid them throughout the realm to save the last remaining Triforce from the clutches of the evil Ganon. At the same time, she commanded her most trustworthy nursemaid, [[Impa]], to secretly escape into the land and go find a man with enough courage to destroy the evil Ganon. Upon hearing this, Ganon grew angry, imprisoned the princess, and sent out a party in search of Impa. | One day, an evil army attacked this peaceful little kingdom and stole the [[Triforce of Power]].

What could she do? | Braving forests and mountains, Impa fled for her life from her pursuers. As she reached the very limit of her energy she found herself surrounded by Ganon's evil henchmen.

All was not lost. A young lad appeared. He skillfully drove off Ganon's henchmen, and saved Impa from a fate worse than death. His name was [[Link]]. During his travels he had come across Impa and Ganon's henchmen. Impa told Link the whole story of the princess Zelda and the evil Ganon. Burning with a sense of justice, Link resolved to save Zelda, but Ganon was a powerful opponent. He held the Triforce of Power. And so, in order to fight off Ganon, Link had to bring the scattered eight fragments of the Triforce of Wisdom together to rebuild the mystical Triangle. | All was not lost. A young lad appeared.
