The is a cadre of vigilantes in. They are centered in Telma's Bar of Hyrule Castle Town. They are covertly working to restore peace to Hyrule. The Resistance includes Telma, Auru, Ashei, Shad, and later, Link. Rusl has also been a member for some time, and he decided to seek them out after recovering from the attack on Ordon Village.

Biography
The Resistance is first mentioned in Kakariko Village when Telma compliments Link on his skills and asks if he intends to put them to use for Hyrule. She then reveals that she is a part of a group trying to do their part to protect Hyrule and invites the young hero to join them sometime at her bar.

When Link enters the bar after taking Telma to Kakariko Village, The Resistance will be inside, but will treat him harshly. Later, after Zant curses Link with the Shadow Crystal and mortally wounds Midna, the young hero must traverse the loft of the bar in his Wolf form to gain access to the Hyrule Castle Sewers to seek Princess Zelda, where The Resistance can be overheard talking about him and considering apologizing. When Link next meets them after he withdraws the Master Sword from the Sacred Grove, they will apologize to him for their behavior and properly introduce themselves. Each of the members, with the exception of Auru who is at Lake Hylia during this part of the game, will tell Link the area of Hyrule that they are each currently investigating: Ashei is working to discover Snowpeak's mysteries, Shad is researching the sky beings known as the Oocca, and although Rusl does not specifically mention what he is researching, Link later finds out that he was investigating the Sacred Grove in the northern Faron Woods.

From this point onward, the members of The Resistance will be of crucial assistance to Link as they lead him to the locations of the missing Shards of the Mirror of Twilight. The Resistance first advises Link to visit Lake Hylia, where Auru is located. When the young hero reaches the lake, Auru will help him gain access to the Gerudo Desert and, to an extent, the Arbiter's Grounds, learning about the Mirror of Twilight in the process. Later, Ashei helps the young hero track down the Yetis of Snowpeak, so that he may access the next dungeon, Snowpeak Ruins, and obtain one of the Mirror Shards. After this, Rusl lends Link the Golden Cucco in the northern part of Faron Woods so that he can make it across the chasm that separates the Sacred Grove from Faron Woods and reach the Temple of Time, where another Mirror Shard is located. Shad seeks out the secret of the Owl Statues around Hyrule, and indirectly leads Link to reactivating the Dominion Rod, as well as locating the Sky Cannon and thus ultimately reaching the City in the Sky, the location of the final Mirror Shard for the Mirror of Twilight. If at any point during his journey Link is unsure where to go next, he can always return to Telma's bar and speak to her, and she will guide him as to which member of the group he should visit in which part of Hyrule.

When Link enters Hyrule Castle, The Resistance assists him by saving him from a near-death experience. Just as Link is about to get attacked by numerous enemies, The members of The Resistance make their entrance and defeat all of the enemies for the young hero, allowing him to proceed to the last few floors of Hyrule Castle and eventually reach Ganondorf.

After peace returns to Hyrule, Ashei, Shad and Auru travel to the Sacred Grove to explore it. Telma continues tending her bar and Rusl returns to Ordon Village with TPHD: and the other children where he meets with Uli again, who recently had a newborn daughter.
