Set a few decades after the events of Ocarina of Time, the game begins with Link living and working as a ranch hand in Ordon Village. When monsters suddenly attack the village and kidnap the village children and his close friend Ilia, Link pursues the attackers and a monster pulls him through a strange black wall which transforms him into a large wolf ("blue eyed beast"), seemingly by the power of the Triforce of Courage. The monster drags him off and he wakes, imprisoned, in Hyrule Castle. An imp-like creature named Midna appears and releases him. She guides him to another of the castle's prisoners: Princess Zelda.
Main characters Link and Midna in the Wii version.Zelda explains that the Twilight King Zant is trying to merge the Twilight Realm and Hyrule into a land of darkness using an evil power. Zant is a member of the Twili, a race of beings descended from magicians banished to the Twilight Realm by the goddesses of Hyrule. Midna is a Twili who is searching for a weapon called the Fused Shadows to defeat Zant and save the Twilight Realm. Restoring the four Light Spirits of Hyrule, Link and Midna re-assemble the Fused Shadows that had been broken up and hidden in the Forest Temple, Goron Mines and Lakebed Temple. However, Zant appears, takes the Fused Shadows, embeds a black crystal in Link's forehead, trapping him in his wolf form, and exposes Midna to the light of the Light Spirit Lanayru, critically injuring her. Link rushes Midna to Princess Zelda, who reveals that the only way Link can return to his normal form is to find the Master Sword. Zelda combines her heart with Midna's to heal her, allowing her to exist outside of the Twilight. After Link reaches the Master Sword, Zant's black crystal is forced out of him. Midna keeps the crystal, allowing Link to assume his wolf form at will.
Link and Midna travel through the Gerudo Mesa and conquer the Arbiter's Grounds dungeon to reach the Mirror of Twilight — the only way to enter the Twilight Realm and stop Zant — only to discover that Zant has broken it. The ancient sages who guard the mirror reveal that they banished Ganondorf to the Twilight Realm using the Mirror, and that he may be the source of Zant's frightening newfound powers. They also state that Zant attempted to destroy the Mirror completely but couldn't because only the true ruler of the Twili has the power to do so and Zant's powers are false. He could only break it into four fragments, and three are missing. After completing Snowpeak Ruins, Temple of Time, and City in the Sky, they obtain the missing Mirror shards. After Link and Midna restore the Mirror, the sages reveal that Midna is the true ruler of the Twili, the Twilight Princess, and that Zant's curse turned her into an imp. When Link and Midna confront Zant in the Twilight Realm, he explains that he encountered Ganondorf while in a rage about being passed over as the king of the Twili. Ganondorf offered to make Zant's wishes come true and made Zant into a vessel for his power. Midna regains the Fused Shadows and uses it to kill Zant.
Triforce and Goddesses statue in the Wii version.Link and Midna return to Hyrule Castle, which is surrounded by a seemingly impenetrable magical barrier, but Midna breaks through it with the Fused Shadows. They then encounter Ganondorf who possesses Zelda. Link is then forced to fight Zelda. After Link defeats her, Midna purges Zelda of Ganondorf's spirit. Ganondorf then transforms into the form of a giant boar (his "Ganon" form). After Link defeats Ganon, Zelda's spirit is released from Midna's body, bringing Zelda back to life. Suddenly Ganondorf reappears as what looks like a floating, flaming apparition of his head. Midna teleports Link and Zelda to safety, and tries to destroy him with the Fused Shadows. However, after Link and Zelda are safely transported to Hyrule Field, Hyrule Castle is decimated and Ganondorf, having apparently defeated Midna, appears on horseback holding the Fused Shadow Midna wore on her head before crushing it in his hand. Zelda prays to the Light Spirits, who grant her the Light Arrows, and she and Link battle Ganondorf on horseback. Ganondorf falls from his horse in battle but challenges Link to a swordfight. After a grueling battle, Link drives the Master Sword into Ganondorf's glowing wound. Ganondorf stands, impaled, believing the Triforce of Power will save him. Instead the image of the Triforce fades from his hand and he seemingly dies standing upright.
With Ganondorf dead the curse that Zant put on Midna, who survived her defeat at Ganondorf's hands, is broken and she regains her true form. Link, Zelda and Midna travel to the Mirror of Twilight, where Midna returns home. Before she leaves, Midna sends a tear into the Mirror, cracking it. After Midna enters the portal the Mirror shatters, severing the link between Hyrule and the Twilight Realm.
During the ending credits, the image of the Master Sword returned to the Pedestal of Time in the Sacred Grove is shown. Afterwards, Ilia is shown looking down the path leading out of Ordon in consternation, and then the screen flashes to Link riding Epona through Faron Woods away from home. Despite the general misconception that Link is riding towards Ordon, close inspection of the ending scene and the landmarks of Faron Woods show Link is in fact riding away. The final image is of the statue of the Triforce and the Goddesses above the throne room in Hyrule Castle, light shining on one half, the other half in shadow
