A new day dawns in the peaceful land of Hyrule. Inside a cozy cottage, we find our hero, a young boy named Link, fast asleep.
Though Hyrule is tranquil, Link’s dreams are anything but. This morning, he is troubled by eerie visions of a triangular golden artifact, and the fiery eyes of a mysterious monster.
Our hero’s bad dream ends when another youngster, Gulley, arrives and awakens Link. It seems our hero has overslept—he’s late for work at the Blacksmith’s shop!
