Walkthrough
Beneath the Tower of the Gods, you descend into the silent Hyrule Castle, frozen in time under the sea. Walk its flooded halls guided by the light — there are no enemies here, only the story: statues of ancient heroes and an empty throne.
In the final chamber rests the Master Sword, wrapped in a barrier of light. Pulling it free triggers a vision of the Great Flood: the gods drowned Hyrule centuries ago to seal away Ganondorf, and with him an evil the kingdom itself couldn’t defeat.
💡 The Master Sword you pull here doesn’t have its full power yet — it wakes up gradually as you gather the Pieces of the Triforce of Courage in the Earth Temple and the Wind Temple.
Sword in hand, the King of Hyrule (who has remained in the castle as a spirit since the Flood) explains the mission: gather the Triforce of Courage for any chance against Ganondorf.
