− | The Master Sword | + | The Master Sword was forged long before the time of Ganon as instructed by a 'divine oracle'. The source of it's power comes from the [[Sages]] - whose prayers to the gods, gives it the power to defeat evil. Without them, it becomes dull and no more powerful than any other sword. This sword has been used many times by heroes through the ages (all named [[Link]], of course). In most cases, the sword is used as a key of different sorts. Three jewels/pendants/pearls are usually needed to claim the Master Sword. |

− | === | + | ===Ocarina of Time=== |
− | The Master Sword | + | The Master Sword is found in the Pedestal of Time within the [[Temple of Time]]. Drawing it from the pedestal will open a gate to the [[Sacred Realm]]. However, the Master Sword can only be drawn by the Hero of Time. Since Link is still a child and not yet old enough to be the Hero of Time when he pulls the Master Sword, he goes into a slumber for seven years. Strangely enough if he returned the Master Sword to the pedestal he would be sent back in tim to his child years until he pulled the Master Sword again. |
− | + | Link used the Master Sword to aid in his powers against Ganon, eventually defeating the beast with the sword. At the end of the game, [[Princess Zelda]] used the [[Ocarina of Time]] to send Link back to his childhood years. Link was returned to the Temple of Time, where he returned the Master Sword to its resting place. | |
− | === | + | ===Twilight Princess=== |
− | The Master Sword | + | The Master Sword is found in the ruins of the Temple of Time, known as the Forest Sanctuary. When Link is trapped in his wolf form by an evil curse, he approaches the Master Sword, and it cleanses the evil, turning Link to normal. Link then draws the sword and uses it in his quest. During return visits to the sanctuary, Link can briefly place the Master Sword back in its pedestal to open new areas, including the "real" Temple of Time. Link later impales Ganondorf on the Master Sword, leading to Ganondorf's supposed death. In the game's ending credits, the Master Sword is shown to have been returned to its pedestal. |
− | + | ===The Wind Waker=== | |
− | + | The Master Sword is found in the basement of [[Hyrule Castle]] (an area adorned with stain glass windows depicting scenes from Ocarina of Time), underneath the Great Sea. Link pulled the Master Sword from its pedestal, causing time to un-freeze in Hyrule Castle. Link attempted to use the Master Sword against Ganondorf but failed due to the fact that the Master Sword had grown dull without the prayers of the sages, [[Laruto]] and [[Fado]], whom had been killed by Ganon's men. | |
− | + | Link then sought two new Sages, [[Medli]] and [[Makar]], and brought them to their respective temples. With their prayers, the Master Sword was restored to full power. Link then used it in battle with Ganondorf. In the end, Link defeated Ganondorf by planting the Master Sword in his head - thus turning him into stone. | |
− | === | + | ===A Link to the Past=== |
− | + | The Master Sword was found in the [[Lost Woods]]. Link was able to claim it after gathering all three of the Pendants of Virtue. The drawing of the Master Sword also cleared all of the fog in the Lost Woods and allowed Link to shoot sword beams. With the Master Sword in his possession, Link destroyed the barrier blocking off the tower of Hyrule Castle and battled various monsters of the [[Dark World]]. | |

It could then be further upgraded (or simply bypassed straight) into the Golden Sword by Venus, | + | The Master Sword could additionally be upgraded into the Tempered Sword with help from the dwarven smithies. It could then be further upgraded (or simply bypassed straight) into the Golden Sword by Venus, Queen of Fairies. At the end of the game, Link returned the Master Sword to its pedestal, where it would sleep forever. |

It only appeared if certain conditions were met. It could be accessed either as the final part of a trading sidequest or by distributing passwords between the two games. Depending on the path, the Master Sword is either upgraded from the [[Noble Sword]] (casting into doubt the authenticity of the sword's presence in the games) or obtained seperately. |
