Epilogue

After the battle was over, Zelda ordered the Monster Squad to bring the remaining monsters to the monster island out at sea. Because of Hyrule's previous experience with dealing with the monsters, everyone was glad that the rest of them were being shipped away. Poump, Zhago, Uten, Tipa, and Link took the last bunch of monsters on the boat with them to the island. One more guest appeared on the boat, Kilton, the owner of the Fang and Bone shop. He wanted to live with the monsters, so Link allowed him to stay on the island. As all of the remaining monsters were dropped off on the island, Poump decided to name the island, Koholint Island. Kilton now lives on the island with the other monsters. The monsters themselves set up their own clans, and built structures for themselves to live in. The monsters even started to learn different farming concepts from Kilton, as he demonstrated to them how to plant crops and how to herd wild animals.

On the way back to Hyrule, the party stopped by Windfall Island once again. Efiath thanked Link for teaching her about speaking to other people. Her and Ophea became best friends, and from that friendship, Efiath had many more friends on Windfall Island. Efiath allowed Pep to stay with Link, as she wanted a fresh start with her life on the island. Link accepted this and took Pep in with open arms.

Poump spoke to his family about coming to Hyrule in order to visit. They chose to visit Hyrule with Poump, and in their visit, Poump taught them about how to ride on horses. Poump also showed them his friends and how much they grew. Bomp and Groose met each other after such a long time and flawlessly performed the secret handshake together.

Since Link took Pep with him to Hyrule, he and Zelda looked over the child. They even had another baby on the way. By Zelda's jurisdiction in the court, Link was allowed to keep his status as Knight. She respected his decision to not be crowned King. As for Ganondorf, he would visit Link and Zelda at Hyrule Castle in order to watch over Pep sometimes. He taught Pep about different fighting styles, and how to use them.

Lady Riju of the Gerudo allowed Ganondorf to be accepted as a part of the Gerudo Tribe. He assisted them greatly with his combat skills and ability, and joined their ranks as the General of the Gerudo, next to Captain Buliara. With the recent resurgence of the Moldugas, the Gerudo Tribe set up new rules in the desert, allowing for no hunting. The Gerudo put their efforts into conserving the Molduga's species. If a rare disease were to ever arrive again, they would have enough Molduga Guts to go around.

As for the Shadow Beasts turned Twili, they all went back to their home in the Twilight Realm through the Twilight Mirror. The Gerudo Tribe took control over the Arbiter's Grounds, and managed to turn it into a working facility for themselves, with the assistance of the Royal Family. They were in good relations with the Twili, as they had no qualms with Veerus' death.

All of the former Yiga Clan members were in Kakariko Village. Paya anointed all of them as members of the Sheikah Clan. Impa's ghost blessed each of the new Sheikah Warriors, as all of them had redeemed themselves. Zhago and Pokh walked into their homestead together and saw a familiar face at the table before them. "You two look healthy!" Zhago's wife said as they entered. Zhago smiled, now knowing that his ideal life was put back together. Additionally, Zelda allowed the Sheikah Clan to use any Sheikah Tech they wanted to, which allowed Purah and Robbie to excel at their research.

Uten and Prince Sidon continued testing on the water outfit. She put 10% of her newly accrued lot of 500,000 rupees into further research of the suit. As a result of this, more Zora were able to visit the Gerudo Desert, and see new sights for themselves.

The horns on Tipa's head fully receded into her skull. She now appears as a normal Hylian girl. Link and Zelda adopted her, accepting her as a part of the Royal Family. She was given speech lessons, which sharpened her ability to speak.

Poump made amends with Goggodu the Goron, and the two of them wrestle on a regular basis on Death Mountain. Additionally, Poump also visits the Korok Forest a lot, in order to play with the Koroks and the other Skull Kids. Then as if by some miracle, the Skull Kid that antagonized him throughout his adventure joined alongside him, alive and well.

Nebb walked into Hateno Village, feeling exhausted from all of the combat he had to endure. As he walked in, the 6 villagers that were previously dead walked up to him alive and with warm welcomes. The next time he met Poump, he fully forgave him. The two of them would challenge each other to a friendly sword duel, as a way of becoming friends.

Roldi the General took a count of all of the soldiers of Hyrule. All of her fallen friends were alive and accounted for. She felt overwhelmed with happiness, as seeing her old comrades again gave her a warm feeling inside. Roldi accepted Poump as a member of the Soldiers of Hyrule, and announced him as the Hero Who Defeated Aghanim.

Keeseman continues his crusade on crime in Hyrule Castle Town. Even with the Yiga Clan gone, there are other criminals who live among the people in Castle Town. He made sure that nothing bad could ever happen in Castle Town again, with his new acquaintances assisting him, as well as Link, who recognizes him as a being of pure heart.

Ganondorf regularly prays to the Goddess, as a way of thanking her for driving Demise's curse away from him, no longer subject to reincarnation. He has the normal life he wanted at long last, after being bound to such a long and grueling curse. Ganondorf even looks up into the sky and sees three serpent-like dragons flying above. A smile overcame his face.

Zelda ordered every Guardian Unit and ancient arrow to be locked away. There was no need for Guardians anymore, as they were considered more of a detriment to their ranks rather than a blessing. Without any Guardians on the field, every single ancient arrow across Hyrule was locked away on an island where the Guardians were also kept. Ancient arrows were considered unethical in warfare, and the Hyrulean Garrison already had enough weapons to keep ancient arrows out of their repertoire.

Tatl occasionally visits Poump from time to time, aiding him with fresh fairy gossip whenever he wants it.

Yunobo and the Gorons host many racing competitions on Death Mountain. Their mining business thrives, as Goron City is at peace once again.

Teba lost any need to isolate himself again. He kept himself close to his family and the Rito Tribe. They would all fly together, wherever they went.

The bug seller, Beedle, and the map maker, Tingle, formed a merger and now work together as a business. Beedle's useful items and Tingle's insightful maps gave citizens a noteworthy business to buy from. They even celebrated their shop by throwing a party at Lon Lon Ranch, where everyone celebrated gleefully.

Selmie and her brother shield surf across the Hebra Mountains together, and she even leads a hiking group. She was able to walk across all of the different mountains across Hyrule with friends by her side. She even opened an exhibit in Castle Town that showcases her expansive shield collection.

Zelda ordered the reconstruction of the bridge to Gerudo Valley. Zhago even donated 5,000 rupees to assist with the bridge's reconstruction.

Each of the party members spent their rupees well, as their accumulated wealth and lessons they learned on their adventures allowed all of them to help every asset of Hyrule Kingdom.

Poump walked through the library in Castle Town, reading several history books with Kass. Poump was at first saddened, knowing that if Hilda really went on all of those adventures through time, she should've been covered in his history class. Kass opened up one of the history books and pointed out several illustrations that depicted a Hero in a Purple Tunic, with purple hair. Poump was glad to see this, so Kass and him got into revising the history books to include Hilda's adventures as well.

The voice from the Master Sword gave Link one more request. To return to the Korok Forest. He returned to the Korok Forest and appeared before the Great Deku Tree. The Deku Tree told him about how Demise's malice is slowly being torn apart inside of the Master Sword's blade, and the only way to truly contain it is to keep the Master Sword in its resting place. Link placed the Master Sword gently back into its pedestal. The Master Sword now sits inside of the Korok Forest, containing Demise's evil inside of it. The blade's metallic shine and mystical energy made for a very serene area for the creatures of the forest to inhabit.

The Divine Beasts all sat together on the Great Plateau. Completely lifeless and devoid of any movement. The ghosts of the Champions chose to leave Link, as they had fulfilled their duties. They now live on the Great Plateau, with the ghosts of all the previous Champions that preceded them living there as well.

With Hyrule at Peace at long last, Link and Zelda were able to settle down and finally have a family life with Pep, Tipa, and the new baby that was coming. However, they always looked at the picture of them with Hilda with sadness. Looking at the possibilities of what could've been, had she not left Hyrule.

6 Years Later.

Today is a grand day in Hyrule Castle, as all of the Heroes who fought in the Battle of Hyrule are assembled inside of the Dining Hall. The tables are long and everyone is seated. Food is abundant on each of the tables, and everyone digs in happily. Poump, Zhago, Uten, and Tipa are all feasting at this momentous occasion. Zelda and Link sit at the table with them, as well as Ganondorf, Pep, and their new child, Zelda the 2nd. They notice something from outside of the room that no one else notices. "Keep a watch of the children." Zelda says to Ganondorf.

"I will do as I always do." Ganondorf replies.

Zelda and Link walk together out of the Dining Hall. Poump is curious about this, so he follows them as well.

Zelda and Link hear the sound of a song. Zelda recognizes this song as 'Zelda's Lullaby'. They walk through the corridors together with Poump following behind. They continued to follow the song, the soft playing of a harp became clearer and clearer to them. They eventually arrived at a balcony that overlooks all of Hyrule, and in the center of the balcony stands a woman with purple hair, playing the harp. She stops playing it, and turns around to look at the people who arrived. She appears to be 27 years old. Zelda and Link look at her in disbelief at first, but then they understand who she is.

The purple haired woman spoke. "Let's make up for lost time now, shall we?"

THE END
