That’s how long Zelda had to bide her time in the shadows as Sheik, laying in wait as she nurtured the opportunity to strike. To take back what was rightfully hers.
Her kingdom. Her throne. Her people.
Now, together with Link, she’s devised a plan to take down the Great King of Evil once and for all.
Ganondorf wasn’t supposed to find her first.
