Link defeats Zant, but Zant remains alive as long as Ganondorf lives, his power will keep Zant alive. It is revealed that Midna is the true Twilight Princess, and was overthrown by Zant and turned into an imp using Ganondorf's power. When Zant was passed over in the choice for ruler, he went into a crazed rage, and was approached by the spirit of Ganondorf, who selected him to be a servant that would help him come to power (he had told him that he would grant him his power and that he was a god). Link and Midna confront Zant and finally learn that Zant was actually in line to become the true Twilight King, but was passed over.

When they assembled the mirror, the story of how Midna found Link in the first place, and the fact that she's the Twilight Princess, is exposed. Link and Midna venture out and recover the fragments of the Mirror of Twilight, reconstruct the Mirror, and use it to warp to the Twilight Realm, where Zant rules in the Palace of Twilight. The duo then set off to find the remaining fragments of the Mirror of Twilight. The Sages reveal that only the true Ruler of the Twili could destroy the Mirror of Twilight and that Zant was only powerful enough to break it in four. The ancient Sages who guard the Mirror appear, and reveal that the evil Ganondorf had the Triforce of Power, and thus could not be killed.Īfter he was impaled, the sages had thought he'd been executed, but he instantly rose, and killed the Water Sage and was then sealed into the Twilight Realm. Only one fragment of the Mirror of Twilight is present. However, when Link and Midna reach the Mirror, Zant had already broken it into four fragments. Midna explains that the only way to save Hyrule and stop Zant now is to find the Mirror of Twilight and use it to confront Zant with the Master Sword. Midna and Link then venture deep into the Sacred Grove and obtain the Master Sword. Midna's life is fading away, and Zelda, upon realizing that Midna can save Hyrule, sacrifices herself to save Midna. Zant leaves, and Link hurries Midna back to Hyrule Castle to seek aid from Princess Zelda.Īt Hyrule Castle, Princess Zelda, reveals that the only way Link can return back to his normal form is to find the Blade of Evil's bane, otherwise known as the Master Sword. Just as it seems as if Link finally has the upper hand, Zant appears, curses Link to be trapped in his wolf form, and Midna is exposed to the spirit Lanayru's light and is mortally wounded. The goddesses created the Mirror of Twilight, a device to banish beings into the Twilight Realm (though it can also be used to enter the realm normally).Īfter many trials, Link and Midna re-assemble the Fused Shadow. The Twili's ancestors were interlopers with great magic who went to the holy Sacred Realm in order to establish dominion over it, causing a war to break out in Hyrule.Īfter these sorcerers became too powerful, the goddesses sent three light spirits to seal away the beings' magic and sealed the beings themselves away into another realm known as the Twilight Realm. However, Midna cares nothing for the fate of Hyrule.ĭuring the quest to assemble this weapon, it is discovered that the Twili are a race of beings whose ancestors were banished to the Twilight Realm by the Gods of Hyrule ( Din, Farore, and Nayru). In order to defeat Zant, Midna is searching for a sacred weapon called the Fused Shadows that she can use to defeat Zant and save the Twilight Realm. She explains that Zant, a member of a race known as the Twili, is trying to merge the Twilight Realm and Hyrule to make them into one land of darkness (Zant's Invasion of Hyrule).
