Main article: Twilight Princess Story

This game's story takes place after the Child Ending of Ocarina of Time, when Zelda sent the Hero of Time back in time to prevent the events of Ocarina of Time and allowed him to live out his childhood.

This generation's Link lives a peaceful life in Ordon Village as a goat herder and animal wrangler. He is a valuable friend to both the village and forest. One day, Link is given the opportunity to visit Castle Town as an envoy to present a specially crafted sword to the royal family. Before Link embarks, however, tragedy strikes the village and he is forced to leave his tranquil life behind. Link must venture forth into the vast land of Hyrule to bring peace back to his village and, along the way, uncover the secret behind the mysterious Twilight.
