Plot Elements

 * Link and Zelda set out to explore a cavern beneath Hyrule Castle, from which a poisonous substance called gloom has been seeping out and causing people to fall ill. There, they find a mural depicting the founding of Hyrule and a conflict known as the Imprisoning War—an ancient battle against a being referred to as the "Demon King"—and decide to venture deeper, triggering the awakening of a mummy who attacks the two with gloom.
 * As a result, Link's right arm is badly damaged, the Master Sword is shattered, and Hyrule Castle is raised upwards.
 * Zelda falls below, and as Link tries to catch her, she vanishes with a mysterious artifact.
 * Link is rescued by a disembodied arm, which had been restraining the mummy, and he awakens on the Great Sky Island to find that it has replaced his damaged arm. He meets the spirit of Rauru, a Zonai who is the source of his new arm.
 * Rauru assists Link as he traverses the Great Sky Island, and once Link reaches his destination, the shattered Master Sword vanishes and a mysterious dragon called the Light Dragon appears in the sky.
 * Link then dives to the surface below.
 * There, he learns that the event in the cavern, known as the Upheaval, has wrought chaos upon Hyrule, and sets out to investigate reports of strange phenomena occurring throughout the kingdom. In the process, he reunites with Sidon, the prince and later king of the Zora; Tulin, a young Rito archer and the son of Teba, a past ally of Link's; Yunobo, a Goron and the president of YunoboCo, a mining company; and Riju, the chief of the Gerudo.
 * Alongside them, Link ventures into ancient Zonai temples and defeats the monsters occupying them. As he does so, he finds strange artifacts and the spirits of sages from ancient times appear to him and his allies. They appoint his companions as sages and pass down the artifacts, secret stones, which they once wielded. Afterwards, after reports of Zelda's appearance across Hyrule, Link tracks her down to Hyrule Castle, where she reveals herself to be Phantom Ganon, a servant of the Demon King, Ganondorf, who was the mummy beneath Hyrule Castle.
 * Phantom Ganon is defeated by Link and his allies, and Link later encounters Mineru, an ancient sage who remains in the physical world via spiritual projection. He helps create a mechanical body for her spirit to inhabit.
 * Through Mineru, the other ancient sages, and Dragon's Tears scattered throughout the land, Link learns of Zelda's fate.
 * The artifact that vanished with her was a secret stone, and with it, she was transported through time to the distant past.
 * Link recovers the Master Sword in the Lost Woods after it's been restored. Zelda is astonished to learn from the Deku Tree that the Master Sword will become even stronger when flooded with sacred power.
 * While investigating the mysterious gloom under Hyrule Castle, Link and Zelda encounter a mummy that attacks them. Events spiral out of control when the Master Sword shatters. Zelda falls into the depths of the earth, and Link, gripped by a mysterious arm, is enveloped in light.
 * After disappearing into the depths under the castle, Zelda wakes up and meets two strangers who introduce themselves as King Rauru and Queen Sonia. She's left startled by a suspicion that she's heard those names before.
 * Looking out across the world she's found herself in, Zelda realizes she's traveled to the ancient past and questions how she can get back to her own time. Sonia offers some helpful thoughts, but it's Rauru who realizes his older sister, Mineru, might know a way Zelda can travel forward in time.
 * After examining the Purah Pad, Mineru accepts that Zelda is from a different time and explains the only way she might get to the future is by using draconification. It's a forbidden act, however, because Zelda would need to sacrifice her sense of self. Raru tells a disappointed Zelda to speak with Sonia and learn more about her power over time itself.
 * The Gerudo chief, Ganondorf, in his push to conquer Hyrule, uses a swarm of Molduga to assault the castle. When Rauru uses his powers to unleash an attack that destroys the swarm, Ganondorf notices the Zonai secret stone on Rauru's right hand. The sight of it draws a sinister smile from Ganondorf.
 * Invited before the court of Hyrule, Ganondorf kneels before King Rauru and pledges his fealty—while concealing a smile that says otherwise. Still, Zelda is uneasy, and tells Rauru that she's certain the chief has treachery on his mind. Rauru assures her that he's been fully aware of it.
 * When Zelda speaks with Sonia to learn how to use her own time powers, she's surprised by the queen's techniques. Sonia then speaks with Zelda about everything she must be struggling with, and the princess then mentions Link. Rauru has never heard of him before, and as Zelda explains who he is, her faith in her friend and hero shines.
 * Sonia meets with Zelda in private, and when the princess is revealed to be a creature under Ganondorf's control, Sonia and the real Zelda address the threat with confidence. The false Zelda laughs eerily and vanishes in a mist of gloom. In that moment, Ganondorf steps up behind Sonia and catches the queen by surprise. She falls victim to the scheme.
 * With the secret stone he took from Sonia, Ganondorf turns into the Demon King. The gloom that issues from his body creates countless monsters that howl across the world. Rauru goes to Sonia's side to help his fallen queen. Though furious at Ganondorf, he knows the Demon King is too powerful to confront at that moment. He retreats with Zelda.
 * Having turned into the Demon King, Ganondorf uses his terrifying power to cover the world in gloom and send his army of monsters across Hyrule, attacking the peoples of all territories who oppose him.
 * Backed into a corner by the attacks in all parts of Hyrule, leaders facing the Demon King's forces gather at Rauru's call. He gives each a Zonai secret stone, making them sages with powers amplified by the stones. All of the sages raise their voices as one, pledging to fight with King Rauru to the end.
 * On the eve of battle, Zelda tells Rauru that in her future, she's seen that the Demon King is alive, and that it means they won't defeat him the next day. Rauru says that he will still do what he must, even at the cost of his life. If they fail, their last line of defense will be the knight in the future, who wields the sword that seals the darkness.
 * In the battle against Demon King Ganondorf, King Rauru realizes that he and his allies have found themselves in a fatal moment. Knowing he is at fault for Ganondorf's rise in Hyrule and for the theft of the secret stone, Rauru risks his life to imprison the tyrant.
 * As Zelda worries about the Demon King breaking free in the future, a decayed Master Sword appears before her, delivering the news to Zelda that Link is safe in her time. This helps Zelda realize the reason behind her traveling to the ancient days of Hyrule—she finally knows what she must do.
 * Zelda informs Mineru that she has come up with a plan to restore the Master Sword by performing an act that Mineru herself has said is expressly forbidden. It will consume Zelda's sense of self, but the princess insists that she will make this ultimate sacrifice. Mineru is gravely opposed, but promises to help to the best of her abilities.
 * After leaving the Purah Pad in Mineru's care, Zelda swallows the secret stone, holding a hope for Link's future in her heart. As bright light washes over her, Zelda transforms into the Light Dragon, roaring as she ascends into the sky. Tears fall from her eyes and rain from the heavens as the Light Dragon vanishes into an expanse of clouds.
 * Zelda clutches the decayed Master Sword close to her chest and calls to Link, hoping that the sword, which she's suffusing with new power, can find a way to him somehow.
 * In the present, after ridding the Great Deku Tree of gloom in Korok Forest, Link retrieves the Master Sword from the Light Dragon and goes to confront Ganondorf below Hyrule Castle.
 * With aid from Sidon, Tulin, Yunobo, Riju, and Mineru, Link battles an army of monsters before engaging in combat with Ganondorf.
 * Nearing defeat, Ganondorf swallows his secret stone and becomes the Demon Dragon, who engages Link in combat in the skies above Hyrule.
 * With the assistance of the Light Dragon, Link uses the Master Sword to shatter the Demon Dragon's secret stone, killing it.
 * Aided by the spirits of Rauru and Sonia, Link is able to turn Zelda back to normal and regains his original right arm.
 * Rauru and Sonia fade away, and Link and Zelda fall to the surface below, where they reunite.
 * Some time later, on the Great Sky Island, Mineru bids goodbye to Zelda and Link before fading away, while the sages vow to protect Hyrule.
