When Ganon learns that there is to be an Amateur Magician's Contest in the Castle of Hyrule, he sees his chance. He will enter the contest and use his powerful magic to disrupt it -- and, in the confusion, make off with the Triforce! Only Link and Zelda, in an exciting back-to-back battle with the forces of the evil Underworld, have a chance of stopping him!
While riding, Princess Zelda happens upon a damsel in distress being harassed by the dragon Gleeok, but the damsel rebuffs Zelda's aid until a 'dashing hero' in Link shows up.
Link rescues an old man named Sleazenoze from attackers in the woods, and as a reward, the old man gives Link a brand-new fancy sword in exchange for his old one.
When Ganon captures Zelda, he has a most evil plot in mind: using the Crystal of Control he has just discovered, he will force Zelda to marry him -- and then Hyrule will be under his control!
