100 years later, and Link awakens from his slumber, having lost his memories while in stasis. During the battle, Link was fatally wounded, and Zelda had him sent to the Shrine of Resurrection to recuperate while she sealed Ganon inside Hyrule Castle. However, when Ganon's return finally came, he ended up taking control of the Sheikah clan's machines and layed waste to Hyrule. Link was afterwards chosen as the princess' royal knight, and this new responsibility led to him acting stoic and silent so he didn't crack under the pressures of being a hero. These warriors were known as Champions, and the Hylian champion was the boy who was chosen by the Master Sword, Link. Many years later, and Ganon was getting close to breaking the seal, so the Hylians decided to find new warriors to wield the weapons and powers used to defeat Ganon in the past. However, the people of Hyrule managed to seal him away using ancient technology crafted by the Sheikah clan known as Guardians and Divine Beasts, the sword that seals the darkness called the Master Sword, and the holy powers of the kingdom's princess, who possessed the blood of the goddess Hylia.
10,000 years ago, an ancient evil known as Calamity Ganon attacked the kingdom of Hyrule.
