In the original {{TLoZ|-}}, Hyrule is engulfed in chaos after an army led by Ganon invaded it and stole the Triforce of Power. In an attempt to prevent Ganon from acquiring the Triforce of Wisdom, Princess Zelda splits it and hides the eight fragments in secret dungeons throughout the land. Before the princess is kidnapped by Ganon, she commands her nursemaid, Impa, to find someone courageous enough to save the kingdom. While wandering the land, the old woman is surrounded by Ganon’s henchmen, though a young swordsman named Link appears and rescues her. After hearing Impa’s plea, he resolves to save Zelda and sets out to reassemble the scattered fragments of the Triforce of Wisdom, to become powerful enough to defeat Ganon. Link located the eight underground labyrinths, defeats several guardian monsters, and retrieves the Triforce fragments. With the completed Triforce of Wisdom, Link is able to infiltrate Ganon’s hideout and defeats him with the [[Silver Arrow]]. Link picks up the Triforce of Power from Ganon’s ashes and returns both pieces of the Triforce to Princess Zelda, restoring peace to Hyrule.

In {{ALttP|-}}, Link lives with his [[Link's Uncle|uncle]] in a house near Hyrule Castle. During this time, the land of Hyrule was plagued by a sudden disaster, until the wizard [[Agahnim]] appeared at the court of the [[King of Hyrule (A Link to the Past)|King of Hyrule]] and quelled the upheaval. Named chief adviser to the throne, he soon seized power from the king and kidnapped the six [[Maiden]]s, descendants of the seven Sages of long ago. The Maidens were taken to the castle tower and never seen again. One night, Link is awakened by a telepathic message from Princess Zelda, who says that she is locked in the castle dungeon. As the message closes, Link finds his uncle ready for battle, telling Link to remain in bed. After his uncle leaves, however, Link ignores his uncle's command and follows him to the dungeons under the castle. When he arrives, he finds his uncle mortally wounded. Link's uncle tells Link to rescue Princess Zelda from her prison, giving him his sword and shield. Link navigates the castle and rescues Zelda from her cell, and the two escape into a secret passage through the sewers that leads to the [[Sanctuary (A Link to the Past)|Sanctuary]], where they meet the [[Loyal Sage]]. Link is informed that Agahnim intends to open the seal to the [[Dark World]], a realm once sealed off long ago by the seven Sages when Ganon and his army of evil were banished into the Sacred Realm, which became the Dark World. The kidnapped Maidens were sent into the Dark World to open this seal, and Agahnim intended to do the same to Zelda. Link is told by the man that the only thing that can defeat Agahnim is the Master Sword, and the Sage tells him to seek the elder [[Sahasrahla]] to learn more.

Link is told by the man that the only thing that can defeat Agahnim is the Master Sword, and the Sage tells him to seek the elder [[Sahasrahla]] to learn more.


Link finds the elder near the [[Eastern Palace]]. To prove that he is worthy to wield the Master Sword, Sahasrahla sends Link to find the three [[Pendants of Virtue]], hidden in dungeons across Hyrule and guarded by mythical defenders. Sahasrahla becomes Link's mentor, offering him hints and advice at key stages of his journey. After retrieving the Pendants, Link takes them to the resting place of the Master Sword deep in the [[Lost Woods]]. As Link draws the sword from its pedestal, Zelda telepathically calls him to the Sanctuary, informing him that [[Soldier (Enemy)|soldier]]s of Hyrule Castle have arrived. Link arrives at the Sanctuary moments after the soldiers have vacated, where he learns from the dying Sage that Zelda has been taken back to Hyrule Castle. Link goes to rescue her but arrives too late; Agahnim sends Zelda to the Dark World which opens the seal. Link then faces Agahnim in battle and defeats him, but fails to kill him as Agahnim teleports Link to the Dark World as well.

To save Hyrule, Link is required to rescue the seven captive Maidens from dungeons scattered across the Dark World. Once the seven Maidens are freed, including Princess Zelda, they use their power to break the barrier around [[Ganon's Tower (A Link to the Past)|Ganon's Tower]], where Link faces Agahnim again. Link defeats him a second time, and Ganon rises from Agahnim's body and flies away. Link chases after him, finally confronting him inside the [[Pyramid of Power]] at the center of the Dark World. After a battle resulting in Ganon's demise, Link touches the Triforce and restores both the Dark World and Hyrule to their former state before Ganon intervened.

In {{OoA|-}}, soon after {{OoS|-}}, Link is again summoned by the Triforce to save the land of [[Labrynna]]. Upon landing, he hears a cry for help, and he soon finds that [[Impa]], Zelda's caretaker, is being surrounded by monsters. Link easily scares them off, and Impa asks that he help her search for a woman named [[Nayru (Oracle)|Nayru]]. After finding Nayru, it is revealed that [[Veran]], the Sorceress of Shadows, possessed Impa in order to manipulate Link into leading her to Nayru, who turns out to be the Oracle of Ages. Veran quickly takes over Nayru's body, which she uses to alter events in the past to ruin the future. It is Link who, with the help of the [[Harp of Ages]], travels through time in order to rescue the Oracle and restore the ages back to normal. After Link frees Nayru from Veran's possession, the Oracle of Ages teaches the young hero a [[Tune of Ages|song]] crucial to his quest in collecting the eight [[Essences of Time]] scattered over the land of Labrynna. Unfortunately, soon after, the Sorceress of Shadows possesses [[Ambi]], the queen of Labrynna in the past, and takes refuge in the [[Black Tower]]. Link, with all the Essences in hand, heads over to the sinister tower to defeat Veran once and for all. After this adventure, Link sets sail to an unknown destination aboard a ship.

Concerned that the seal which keeps Vaati in the Four Sword may be weakening, Zelda and the rest of the Seven Maidens summon Link and open the way to the shrine of the Four Sword to investigate. However, Zelda and the other maidens are captured and imprisoned by [[Shadow Link]]. Despite the fact that it will release Vaati, Link is forced to draw the Four Sword from its pedestal in order to split himself into four and have the strength to go and rescue the maidens. The Links save all seven of them and collect the four Royal Jewels, which they use to reveal the Tower of Winds. When he followed Shadow Link down to the [[Four Sword Sanctuary]], he pulled the Four Sword splitting him into four like in the original Four Swords, but when he pulled the sword [[Vaati]] was released from the seal once again. After the Links saved Zelda and the maidens, got the four [[Royal Jewels]] from different heroes of Hyrule, and defeated Vaati, Zelda and the Links fought against the dark lord [[Ganon]] and, with the help of the Seven Maidens, seal him within the Four Sword and restored peace to Hyrule. The sword is then returned to its sanctuary and sealed there, and the Links are combined into one again.

In {{ALBW|-}}, Link dreams that he is in an unknown realm with a [[Ganon|familiar character]]. He is about to engage in battle, but [[Gulley]] comes into Link's room and wakes him up from his sleep. In the [[Blacksmith's Forge]], the [[Captain]] of the Guard comes to pick up the new sword that the [[Blacksmith (A Link Between Worlds)|Blacksmith]] forged for him. But he forgets it as he leaves, and Link is sent to return it to him. Shortly afterward, he encounters Yuga, who has transformed the Captain into a [[Painting]] on the [[Sanctuary (A Link Between Worlds)|Sanctuary]]'s wall after he tried to defend [[Seres]], the [[Priest]]'s daughter. He then traps Seres herself in a Painting. Using the [[Forgotten Sword]], Link attacks Yuga, but Yuga evades the attack by [[Wall Merge|Wall Merging]]. Link crashes into the wall and is knocked unconscious. After this, Yuga leaves with Seres' Painting in hand. Link eventually wakes up in his house and meets a mysterious person named [[Ravio]]. After telling Ravio about Yuga, Link is instructed to go see [[Princess Zelda]]. Asking if he can stay in Link's house, Ravio gives him a strange bracelet in exchange. When Link meets Zelda, she gives him the Pendant of Courage and tells him to go meet [[Sahasrahla]]. Once Link does this, he is then told to find [[Osfala]], who is in the Eastern Palace, and is a descendant of the [[Sage|Seven Sages]]. Sahasrahla worries that Yuga may go after him next. Link meets Osfala at the entrance to the Eastern Palace, but Osfala simply laughs off Link's warning about Yuga, telling the young hero that he is just as powerful as the Seven Sages were. He then leaves to confront Yuga. However, after traversing the Eastern Palace, Link runs into Yuga yet again, who turns Osfala into a Painting, just as he did Seres. Link battles Yuga, managing to best him with the help of the [[Bow]] he rented from Ravio. In a fit of rage, Yuga traps Link as a Painting and leaves. However, Link escapes with the help of [[Ravio's Bracelet]] and discovers he could now turn himself into a Painting and back at will with the bracelet.

Meanwhile, having collected the Seven Sages, Yuga quickly takes over [[Hyrule Castle]]. Link meets Sahasrahla again, who instructs Link to obtain the Pendants of Courage, Wisdom, and Power. Only then will he be able to wield the [[Master Sword]] in order to access the castle. After completing this task, Link obtains the Master Sword and delves into the castle, where he finds Yuga with a Painting of Zelda. Yuga then escapes through a mysterious crack in the wall via his ability to Wall Merge. Link pursues Yuga to the other side, where Yuga has begun the process of reviving the evil Ganon, using the power of the Sages to do so. Once Ganon is resurrected, Yuga merges with him, becoming even more powerful. Link is saved by [[Princess Hilda]] and is told he is in the kingdom of [[Lorule]] - a counterpart of his own Hyrule. Link is then given a new task - to rescue and awaken the Seven Sages. Upon awakening all of the Sages, Link is granted the power of the [[Triforce|Triforce of Courage]]. After Hilda's failed attempt to steal the Triforce from him to save her kingdom, Link faces off against [[Yuga Ganon]] and defeats him. Afterwards, Link and Zelda are taken to the Lorulean version of the [[Sacred Realm]], through which they return home to their own Sacred Realm. There, they find Hyrule's Triforce and wish for the Lorulean Triforce to be restored. After the credits, Link returns the Master Sword to its pedestal.
