Imprisoning War

The refers to two events in.

Following Series:'s defeat at the hands of Series: in the Series:, the Series: King steals the Series: and Series: from the Series: and Series:. He then uses the full power of the Series: to transform into the Series:. Left with no other option, the Series: seal Series: away with the completed Series: in the Series: and return a relative peace to Series:.

Because of ALttP:'s takeover of ALttP:, the knowledge of the Series:'s existence and the Series: spread throughout the Series:. People began to search for an entrance to the Series: in search of the Series:'s unlimited power. However, because ALttP:'s wicked heart transformed the ALttP: into the ALttP:, every person who found their way into it transformed into a ALttP: resembling their true nature. Because the NaN Sages were unable to locate the ALttP:, the ALttP: ordered the ALttP: to seal the ALttP: entirely.

As they prepared to do so, an army of NaN Monsters under ALttP:'s control broke forth from the ALttP:, threatening the lives of everyone in their path and beginning the ALttP:. No hero could be found to wield the ALttP:, so the NaN Knight of Hyrules were forced to give their lives to protect the ALttP: as they prayed to seal the ALttP:. Thanks to their sacrifice, the ALttP: narrowly escape their death and manage to seal the ALttP:, trapping the remaining NaN Monsters in ALttP:'s army within.

However, because most of the combatants were killed during the battle, the ALttP: began to decline. NaN Hylians began to lose touch with their ancestral powers and relationships between the ALttP: and other peoples like the NaN Zoras began to fall apart. The ALttP: also expended most of its wealth on the ALttP:, weakening its political power and economy and impoverishing its citizens. Though ALttP: was unable to return to the ALttP: during the ALttP:, he managed to set the stage for his eventual return in the ALttP:. Because of this, a prophecy is foretold of a ALttP: indicated by ALttP:'s return to ALttP:, and that a Hero descended from the NaN Knight of Hyrules would appear to defeat the ALttP:. This prophecy was recorded on the ALttP: for future generations.

The TotK: is an event that occurred shortly after the founding of TotK:. It follows the events of TotK: and his rise to become TotK: before being sealed away by TotK:. Over the course of the TotK:, TotK: is assassinated and her TotK: TotK: is stolen. To combat TotK:, TotK: appoints the TotK: and gives each one a TotK: to amplify their natural abilities. However, their power is not enough to defeat him and Rauru sacrifices his life to ensure Ganondorf is sealed away. While he knows that he will eventually be freed due to Zelda's warning about the future, he shares her trust in TotK:'s ability to defeat him for good.
