Since the dawn of time, Calamity Ganon, the Demon King of Evil has terrorized the citizens of Hyrule. To oppose him, the goddess Hylia created a human soul that could oppose him. Link, the goddess's chosen knight, has appeared millennia after millennia to strike down the calamity and restore peace to his land... in most timelines.
