Ganondorf

Ganondorf is the Gerudo king whose pursuit of the Triforce reshapes Hyrule. His actions connect the child-era political tension to the devastated adult world.

• Story: The game builds his threat through the castle, the Sacred Realm and the consequences of the seven-year interval. The final confrontation resolves a conflict that began before Link fully understood it.
• In the game: Preparation involves completing the Sage route and obtaining the necessary late-game tools. Watch the specific attack patterns and phase changes rather than treating the final encounter as a normal sword duel.
