After [[Link]] rescues [[Princess Zelda]] from her prison in Hyrule Castle, the young hero takes her to the sanctuary and hides her there from [[Agahnim|Agahnim's]] clutches, putting the princess's safety in the hands of the Loyal Sage. However, after the young hero withdraws the [[Master Sword]] from its [[Pedestal of Time|pedestal]], Princess Zelda telepathically sends a message to him saying that the sanctuary has been attacked by the castle soldiers. When Link reaches the sanctuary, he finds the mortally-wounded Loyal Sage lying on the ground and informs the young hero that the princess was kidnapped and taken back to the castle so Agahnim could use her to open the [[Sage|Seven Wise Men's]] seal.<ref>{{cite|Link! You are a second too late. I have failed... Zelda... The soldiers have abducted her. They have taken her to the castle. You must find her before the wizard works his magic. Please...You are our only hope...|Loyal Sage|A Link to the Past}}</ref>

The Sanctuary is last seen during the ending credits, showing that the Loyal Sage has fully recovered from his wounds.

[[File:Renado's Sanctuary.jpg|Renado's Sanctuary in ''Twilight Princess''|thumb|left]]
The Sanctuary in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]'' is located in [[Kakariko Village]], {{exp|GCN version; northwest in the Wii version|northeast}} of [[Malo Mart]] and {{exp|GCN version; west in the Wii version|east}} of the graveyard. It is where [[Renado]] lives with his daughter, [[Luda]], and it's also the place where [[Colin]], [[Talo]], and [[Beth]] take refuge after they were kidnapped by [[King Bulblin]] earlier on in the game. Although the sanctuary looks small at first glance, it actually has a large cellar which can be accessed by lighting up all the candles in the main room, thus removing a large statue that blocked the entrance to the basement.<ref>{{Cite|The entrance to the cellar is designed to open when all of the candles have been lit...|Renado|Twilight Princess}}</ref>
 
Link first visits the sanctuary as a [[Wolf Link|wolf]] and while Kakariko Village is covered in [[Twilight]], searching for [[Tears of Light]]. Here, he discovers that Renado has been taking care of the [[Ordon Village|Ordon]] children all along, who are all trying to protect themselves from the [[Shadow Beast]]s that prowl the village.<ref>{{cite|We are safe as long as we remain in here, child. Be at ease.|Renado|Twilight Princess}}</ref> Later on in the game, Link must come back to the sanctuary, where Renado and [[Gor Coron]] will tell Link how to [[Retrieval of Ilia's Memory|retrieve Ilia's memory]].<ref>{{cite|Fortune has smiled upon us! If things go well, we should be able to help Ilia recover her memory! The Goron elder believes that to help her regain her lost memories, we must piece together the fragments of her past... Which means... If we work our way backward from the very place where she lost her memory, we may find something that will restore it.|Renado|Twilight Princess}}</ref> After the young hero obtains [[Ilia's Charm]] from [[Impaz]] in the [[Hidden Village]], Link must show it to Ilia at the sanctuary, where she will recover her memory and thus give Link the [[Horse Call]], which was actually going to be a present before Link departed from [[Ordona Province|Ordon]].
 
[[Shad]] can also be found in the cellar after Link completes the [[Temple of Time#Twilight Princess|Temple of Time]]. Once the young hero obtains the [[Ancient Sky Book]] from Impaz, he must show it to Shad, who will read it and cause for the [[Dominion Rod]] to reactivate.<ref>{{Cite|What's this? Ah! It's Sky Writing! Where in blazes did you get this? You don't suppose this could be the word that breaks the seal...|Shad|Twilight Princess}}</ref> It isn't until Link completes the missing characters of the Ancient Sky Book that will allow Shad to completely read the book and thus permit Link to move the [[Owl Statue]], revealing a secret room in the sanctuary's cellar.<ref>{{cite|Is this that book from last time? ...Hm? Are there more letters in the word than the last time I looked at this? How did you investigate the... [Link], this is amazing! Amazing! Now THIS must be the word we need! Let's try it immediately! Ah! It has taken on the same shape as the other statues... What can this mean?|Shad|Twilight Princess}}</ref> It is here that the broken [[Sky Cannon]] can be found, which Link must [[Warping|warp]] to [[Lake Hylia]] for [[Fyer]] to fix.<ref>{{cite|That seems to be broken, so you'd do well to show it to a cannon expert first, I should say!|Shad|Twilight Princess}}</ref>

In the [[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past (Comic)|''A Link to the Past'' comic]], Link and Princess Zelda reach the Sanctuary after escaping [[Hyrule Castle]] through the [[Secret Passage]]. Upon reaching the Sanctuary, the [[Old Man]] living there explains the consequences of Agahnim's plan.<ref>{{cite book|quote= Yes...and were he successful, the master of evil would marshal his forces against this world again!|book=A Link to the Past|publisher=Nintendo Power|page=14}}</ref> However, Agahnim suddenly appears and commands that Zelda return to the castle.<ref>{{cite book|quote=Princess Zelda...

==Trivia==
*In the Japanese version of ''A Link to the Past'', the Sanctuary is known as the Church, while the [[Loyal Sage]] is known as the Priest. A few other minor name changes were made to the game for similar reasons. Visually the location and the Sage remain the same despite the name change.
