To rescue her would require the three sacred treasures, which in this context have never been seen before.^{[citation needed]} Enter Link, who in this version is a descendant of the Valcon, a race of elfin warriors who serve the goddess Valkyria.^{[citation needed]} He is able to manifest an arsenal of weapons magically via his bracelets, and cast spells such as one that grants him the power of limited flight. Early on, he encounters Com, a young thief who becomes Link's companion after Link rescues him from a Gohma. Com is later revealed to be this world's version of Impa).^{[citation needed]} Link is also aided by the fairy Fonti, who is an ally of the Valcon, and Cryckon, a crystalline bird and Fonti's friend.

After overcoming many trials, Link, Com, and Cryckon confront and defeat Ganos. Having assembled the Triforce, saved Zelda, and restored peace to Hyrule, Link once more sets off to continue his training.
