The Master Sword makes its second appearance in the series with The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. But this was truly my first experience with the Sword of Evil’s Bane.

You get it after opening up the Temple of Time and while it does look a little bit too big for Link…

He automatically wakes up as an adult realizes that 7 years have passed and Ganondorf has taken over Hyrule. Not great news to hear…

While the Big Goron sword is more powerful and longer, the Master Sword is needed to actually kill Ganondorf. And during the final battle, Ganon knocks it out of your hand and it falls out of your reach.

But after finding another way to attack him (hopefully you have the other blade) you’ll manage to get it back.

And put it into the evil Gerudo king once and for all… Until he reincarnates to pester a new generation.
