'''Hyrule Castle''' is the final [[dungeon]] in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]''. It isn't the longest dungeon in the game; however, it contains a collection of some of the most difficult enemies in the entire game. [[Link]] and [[Midna]] go to Hyrule Castle directly after learning from [[Zant]] that his ''God'' ([[Ganon|Ganondorf]]) has escaped the [[Twilight Realm]], and has been reborn in the Light World. | '''Hyrule Castle''' is the final [[dungeon]] in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]''.

She uses the [[Fused Shadow]]s to destroy the barrier and open the entrance to Hyrule Castle. | ||
The first obstacle for Link as he enters the Hyrule Castle Courtyard is to collect a [[Small Key|key]] to unlock the entrance to the actual ''castle'' portion of the dungeon. This objective leads him into a fight with one of the [[Mini-Boss]]es of Hyrule Castle, [[King Bulblin]]. Once Link has gotten the key and has entered the castle, he will face off against the other two Mini-Bosses of the dungeon; a [[Darknut]] and an [[Aeralfos]]. Eventually, Link makes his way to the top of the castle, and into the [[Throne Room]]. Here, he finds Ganondorf, sitting on the Throne of Hyrule. They chat; which mainly consists of Ganondorf calling the [[Interlopers]]' attempt to defy the gods pathetic. | The first obstacle for Link as he enters the Hyrule Castle Courtyard is to collect a [[Small Key|key]] to unlock the entrance to the actual ''castle'' portion of the dungeon.

The [[Boss]] of Hyrule Castle, who is also the Final Boss of ''Twilight Princess'', is a very common [[The Legend of Zelda (Series)|''The Legend of Zelda'']] villain, Ganondorf. The battle against Ganondorf has four different phases, all of which involve Ganondorf being in a different form. In the first phase, he has possessed [[Princess Zelda|Zelda]] and used her as a puppet to fight Link. Phase Number 2 has Ganondorf in his Ganon form, very similarly to the final battle against Ganondorf in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]''. The third phase takes place on horseback in [[Hyrule Field]]. The fourth and final phase is a classic [[Sword]]-and-[[Shield]] battle, where the best swordsman will win. Ganondorf wields the [[Sages' Sword]], the same one they tried to kill him with, which he kept after being imprisoned into the Twilight Realm. After hitting Ganondorf with the [[Hidden Skills#Ending Blow|Ending Blow]], he will stand and start to talk. He tells Link to not think that this is the end, | The [[Boss]] of Hyrule Castle, who is also the Final Boss of ''Twilight Princess'', is a very common [[The Legend of Zelda (Series)|''The Legend of Zelda'']] villain, Ganondorf.
