[[King Harkinian]] announces that [[Duke Onkled]], ruler of the island of [[Gamelon]], is under attack by the evil forces of [[Ganon]], and that he is going to the island to aid him. [[Princess Zelda]] becomes worried for her father's safety, but Harkinian reassures her that he will take the [[Triforce of Courage]] to protect him. He tells Zelda to send [[Link]] for help if he does not return in a month. [[Impa]] also assures Zelda that her father will safely return, according to the [[Triforce of Wisdom]]'s vision. An entire month passes without word from the King. As instructed, Zelda sends Link to find him, but he fails to return either. Zelda then decides to venture forth herself to search for Link and her father, taking Impa along with her.

In Gamelon, Zelda does battle with many creatures working for Ganon, and meets many friendly characters and obtains a variety of useful items along the way. On her adventure, she confronts and defeats several of Ganon's minions: [[Gibdo#Zelda: The Wand of Gamelon|Gibdo]], [[Iron Knuckle#Zelda: The Wand of Gamelon|Iron Knuckle]], the [[Three Witches]], [[Wizzrobe#Zelda: The Wand of Gamelon|Wizzrobe]], [[Hektan]], and [[Omfak]]. Between her battles, Zelda and Impa learn from the Triforce of Wisdom that several of Gamelon's citizens have been captured by Ganon's minions and gone missing,<ref>{{Cite manual|quote=A panic is rolling through Sakado! The Mayor and some of the other villagers are missing. Could Ganon be kidnapping more innocent people? You'd better get to work.|game=TWoG|page=10}}</ref> and eventually learn that the same fate had befallen her father as well who was captured by Ganon himself. Although Link's fate remains unknown, Zelda meets [[Lady Alma]] after saving her from Wizzrobe, and learns that she had once met with Link. Eventually, Zelda reaches Duke Onkled's castle, [[Dodomai Palace]], where she frees [[Lord Kiro]] and learns that Duke Onkled is actually working with Ganon and had betrayed the King. She confronts Onkled and forces him to give her the key to [[Reesong Palace]], where Ganon is hiding. Zelda then later learns from [[Myra]], a woman encountered earlier in [[Hanyu Forest]], that only the [[Wand of Gamelon (Item)|Wand of Gamelon]] can defeat Ganon, which she finds in the [[Shrine of Gamelon]] after defeating its keeper Omfak.

At Reesong Palace, Zelda uses the wand to imprison Ganon inside a book with chains, and rescues her father. Duke Onkled is arrested and turned over to the King, and begs for mercy. He is made to "scrub all the floors in [[Hyrule]]" as his punishment. Zelda wonders where Link had went to, but Lady Alma, present at the King's liberation, calls him a bore. Zelda then takes her mirror and throws it away, which breaks and inexplicably releases Link, implying that he was trapped inside it. He seems to have no recollection of what happened. The group then celebrates by having a feast.
