Ganondorf was reassured by his wife's fiery spirit. After he absorbed the sight of her swaying hips as she jogged away, he watched Naydra return to the battlefield. There was only one way to defeat this dragon without suffering more losses. He pulled back his arm, hand open wide with a glowing black orb in his palm. The energy grew denser and stronger as he charged the attack, his eyes narrowed on Naydra. He curled his fingers into a clenched fist and thrust it forward as if punching the air, and unleashed his power. The orb comprised of pure hatred darted through the air and exploded against Naydra's lower jaw. Her head was thrown back, sending her whole body reeling in the same direction. Having successfully captured the dragon's attention, Ganondorf hovered away from the balcony and calmly approached her in the sky. "You've tasted this malice before," he growled, and summoned the Lightscale trident to his hand. "Now I'll make you choke on it!"
Naydra recovered and purposefully disregarded the soldiers on the ground to focus on her primary target. Ganondorf was mere yards from her jaws. Puffy white spheres floated toward him, but he made no effort to dodge. The cold and ice was nothing with Dora's barrier protecting him. When Naydra discovered her elemental offense had no impact, she lashed out to snatch Ganondorf in her serrated teeth. He darted to the side to avoid being chomped and launched his trident at her. The weapon spun as he guided it in an arch toward the dragon, only to watch it bounce off her scales with a clang. He drew the weapon back to his hand and scowled, changing his methods.
Ganondorf drifted back, continuing to lure the icy dragon toward Death Mountain. By air, the treacherous volcano could be reached quickly, but he needed to be patient. Naydra followed him, drawing close and swinging her massive talons. She grew frustrated at Ganondorf's fluent ability to fly with such grace and avoid her attacks. The Gerudo sorcerer's free hand was filled with magic once more, this time crackling as if he commanded the force of lightning. He waited for her to open her mouth to lash out. The orb flew out of his hand, screaming with the red lightning that engulfed it, and landed inside her mouth. Ganondorf yanked his arms apart and the ball of lightning exploded. Naydra shrieked, spiraling wildly through the air. As she lost control and sank to the ground, he pitched a flurry of corrupt energy at her to make recovery more difficult. Naydra tumbled and splashed into Hylia River, but she was far from being out of the fight.
In the time the dragon needed to return to the air, Ganondorf drew much closer to the lava spewing mountain. Naydra became wise to his trick and veered left to avoid the heat. Ganondorf glared and refused to lose this chance. He appeared beside Naydra's snout and walloped her with a hard right fist, packed with a burst of energy to send her careening toward Death Mountain.
Ganondorf checked his position. Below him, to his left, were the ruins of Great Hyrule Forest and the Lost Woods. Directly ahead of him was the Goronbi River, which emptied into Darunia Lake. He might have used this river of lava to end the fight sooner, but that would not satiate his evil desires. Nothing would please him, except seeing Naydra drown at the bottom of Death Mountain's crater.
The King of Evil rushed forward, summoning an ancient hilt to his grip. A large, shining blue blade, in the shape of an axe, extended from the hilt. Before Naydra regained her senses, he slashed through her scales, opening a deep wound in her side. She screeched and struggled to retreat. Ganondorf swung the ancient battle axe again with all his might, leaving another laceration directly beside the first. Enraged, Naydra twisted about and smacked Ganondorf out of the air with a giant talon. He sped toward the ground, unable to catch his body before he smacked into the side of the mountain near the Goron Hot Springs. Dora's defensive barrier significantly decreased the force of the impact, but his entire body cried out in agony all the same. He gritted his teeth, his scream of pain coming out as an animalistic roar. Ganondorf rolled out of the cavity created by his frame's ruthless collision with the rock. He freed the hilt of the axe and the mystical blade vanished. His eyes quickly turned to the sky when Naydra unexpectedly howled in pain, and found she was under attack by the Gorons. They lifted huge rocks overhead as if they were pebbles, and then hurled them at her with inhuman strength. Naydra was forced into retreat. The white orbs she produced disappeared instantly in the terrible heat. Ganondorf felt the sweat already pouring from his body. He needed to act, now or never. Despite his body's protests, he ascended into the sky, a firm grip on his trident as he prepared for the final attack.
Naydra roared viciously at the onslaught of boulders. Each hit grew more painful the closer she was forced to the hottest part of Death Mountain. The Gorons chased her clear to the Bridge of Eldin, where Ganondorf patiently floated high above, glaring down with superior arrogance. The pain that throbbed through his entire body faded fast, and he owed that to his queen. He raised his trident over his shoulder like a javelin, aiming it directly for Naydra's skull. Ganondorf flung the trident forward and pierced her directly between the eyes. As the prongs sank into her flesh, a burst of dark lightning stunned the dragon, and tendrils of malice wrapped around her head like crimson chains. Ganondorf charged forward. Just as he was about to collide with Naydra's head, he snatched the grip of his weapon and drove her down toward the crater of Death Mountain. The heat was so intense, Ganondorf thought he might have burst into flames without the barrier. When enough momentum was gathered, he pushed off with his feet and escaped the heat to watch the dragon perish.
Naydra screeched and cried in anguish from the torturing heat searing her scales as she plummeted inside the crater. She desperately flailed when her body met the lava, but her attempt to flee was futile. The broiling molten liquid hungrily consumed her like quicksand, and the more she struggled the faster she was burned alive. Her gut-wrenching death cries echoed throughout all of Hyrule, until the lava devoured her completely.
Ganondorf smirked, pleased with the gruesome nature of her death. He turned his back to Death Mountain and made his way toward the fields of Hyrule to learn the outcome of the other battles.
