Description

Main Characters: Princess Zelda


With Hyule being classified as a principality, the sovereign state's monarchs have always been princes and princesses. Succeeding her ill stricken mother at the age of 16, Princess Zelda comes from a historic long line of matriarchs bestowed with the same name. When the monarch inherits the land, Hyrule's elders are obligated to show the newly throned Prince or Princess the city's most highly guarded secret, the ancient Triforce, of which the citizens know nothing about. Influenced by the Triforce and showing wisdom and intuition beyond her years, the young Princess had the ability to govern with a gentle and fair hand. 

On a restless night a year after her initiation, the Princess had a premonition of a tragedy that was to befall her people and their land, but it was too late. At the gates of the royal city was a cloaked figure, a tall, diseased, elderly and unexplainably strange man carrying an ancient Trident. The man did not reply to the armed guards' threats of removal and unleashed a shockwave of destructive power that blew the gates open. Seemingly out of nowhere, mercenaries and beasts began flooding the castle city and amidst the chaos, the sorcerer calmly walked in a straight line toward the royal chamber. Seeing this, Zelda sent out her nursemaid Impa with the Triforce of Wisdom, fragmented into eight pieces moments before the attack. The Sorcerer, making himself known as Ganon, seized the Triforce of Power, sent his mercenaries after Impa and made Zelda his captive. 

Spending the coming months in the confinement of the Ganon's fortress in Death Mountain, Zelda began to lose hope, fearing that her people would have to live in hiding for the rest of their lives and that she'd never escape. Zelda was fed to prolong Ganon's leverage over her, and was constantly pried for the whereabouts of the third Triforce. Zelda's claims of knowing nothing of the third relic only angered Ganon, leading to her being completely cut off. During a particularly dark day, a day that could have very well been her last, the princess heard a commotion on the other side of the stone door that sealed her tomb, culminating in what sounded like something very heavy toppling over. After this there was a period of unnerving silence. Much to Zelda's astonishment, the door opened, revealing the last thing she expected to see; a young boy clad in green.

No yeah, I hear ya! Zelda II is certainly the 'Black Sheep' of the series, hence the characters and story's relative obscurity.

This right here summarizes my childhood the first time I played this game. It was the first time I really felt like I'd accomplished something! Thank you for this!

No thank YOU! You took me back to a place I'd almost forgotten about and it meant a lot to me! Helped reaffirm why I love the fantasy genre so much!
