Five years ago, the second "Twili Incident" occurred, claiming the lives of several thousands of citizens of Hyrule. Princess Zelda was killed through the treachery of the once "Great Fairy," now simply known as "The Traitor." Zelda was brought back as the second Great Fairy and Protector of Hyrule. The Traitor brought the dark king Ganon back from the Sacred Realm into the Twilit Realm. They corrupted the souls of the four resistance members Ashei, Rusl, Shad, and Auru. This handful of individuals wreaked havoc on the realm of Hyrule.
The lost hero of the first "Twili Incident," Dimitri resurfaced along with his brother Link, the original victor over Ganon. These two quelled the Twili threat and returned the Resistance members to their Hylian selves. Dimitri personally killed Ganon and his former lover, the Traitor. Zelda reigned over Hyrule from the unknown position of Great Fairy.
Dimitri fell in love with Ashei of the resistance while Link took his lover Midna, the Twili princess as his wife. These four were granted immortality for their services in the name of Hyrule and became known as the "Kings of Fate."
The events that unfold now bring to light that maybe Dimitri's godliness and flawlessness were only a façade, hiding the slumbering demon within him. A demon that will bring the downfall of the once eternal kingdom of Hyrule.
