ストーリー

The lands of Hyrule and Tolemac, a region in southeastern Hyrule, are in the middle of an Age of Darkness. Ganon (referred to in-game as "Gannon") has captured Link and began exerting his influence over the land. He had stolen the seven Celestial Signs and hidden them away in Tolemac's Shrines, guarded by his followers, the Shrine Keepers. In need of a brave warrior to save the kingdom, the astronomer Gaspra summons Princess Zelda as his champion to undertake the dangerous task of relocating the Celestial Signs, to rescue Link, and to ultimately defeat Ganon and return peace to Tolemac. He gives her a magic pendant and bids her good luck. Along the way, Zelda is guided by Gaspra and Shurmak, who both give her advice on solving Tolemac's puzzles and navigating the land. Zelda journeys through Tolemac as she confronts the Shrine Keepers and takes back the Celestial Signs, while meeting many other helpful and tricky characters along the way. She eventually finds the final Celestial Sign, but she is stopped by Ganon and is sent falling down an opening at the Vision Henge. Zelda again faces the Shrine Keepers in a string of rematches before finally facing Ganon himself. She defeats him, and he disappears in a twister as his realm shatters. With Ganon's defeat, Link is rescued and peace is restored to Hyrule and Tolemac as the kingdom enters an "Age of Lightness"
