Execution of the King of Evil


Several years following the events of and, Ganondorf's execution sentence was to be carried out. The ancient NaN Sages chained him in the TPHD: and produced a sword of pure light, brandished by the Sage of Water, which was then used to impale the King of Evil, creating a glowing wound in his chest.

At this moment, when Ganondorf was near death, the symbol of the Triforce of Power appeared on the back of his hand, preventing him from dying. His strength restored, Ganondorf managed to break free of his bonds. The Sages were shocked to see the symbol on his hand, not understanding how he could have attained the power of the gods. Ganondorf promptly rushed forward, obliterating the Sage of Water. He then removed the Sword of the Sages from his chest and began to wield it.

Shocked, the Sages activated the Mirror of Twilight, which proceeded to pull Ganondorf into the Twilight Realm. Though this would not kill Ganondorf, it would imprison him and prevent him from invading Hyrule again for a time. Ganondorf's spirit would then roam the Twilight Realm, searching for a way to return to the world of light and conquer it. He revitalized himself using the lingering anguish and hatred from among the Twili that managed to bleed through the Twilight Realm's dimensional fabric.
