==Restoring the Mirror of Twilight==
==Restoring the Mirror of Twilight==
After the young hero restores the light to Hyrule, he encounters the Shadow King, Zant. Zant gravely injures Midna while cursing Link in the process. After enlisting the help of Princess Zelda, she revives Midna and tells of the place where Link can unlock himself from his Wolf form. The young hero and Midna travel to the [[Sacred Grove]], where they find the famed [[Master Sword]], which was the key that Zelda previously referenced. The two then travel to the Arbiter's Grounds to find the [[Mirror of Twilight]], which is the only known connection to the Twilight Realm and more importantly, Zant. However, the Mirror was previously broken into three seperate fragments by the Shadow King. Link traverses to the hidden places within Hyrule and finds the three missing [[Mirror Shard|shards]], thus restoring the Mirror.
