User guide
In A Link to the Past, Ganon was defeated and forever imprisonned in the Golden Land by Hyrule’s King, thanks to the Seal of the Seven Sages.
Years passed, and someday the King became affected by a strange and grave illness. Doctors and apothecaries from across the kingdom tried in vain to cure him. The king passed away, and his power vanished, weakening the Seal of the Seven Sages.
The Hero, under the guidance of his master Sahasrahla, trusted the heiress of the royal powers, Princess Zelda, with the Triforce. Zelda teamed with eight mysterious children to shatter the Triforce into eight fragments and conceal them across the kingdom. Peace was restored.
And so begins your journey, full of monsters, mysterious characters, labyrinths and puzzles…
