Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. In the original "Legend of Zelda" (NES) what does Princess Zelda do to prevent the Triforce from getting into Ganon's hands?

Answer: She splits the Triforce of Wisdom into eight pieces

Zelda is the holder of the Triforce of Wisdom, which she split into eight pieces and hid them in the dungeons of Hyrule when she knew her kidnapping was imminent. Ganon, being a terrifyingly strong beast, already possessed the Triforce of Power.

Answer: Maiden

Zelda is maiden, a female descendant of the seven sages. Her duty, once Link has rescued her and the other maidens, is to break the seal surrounding Ganon's Castle so Link can enter and fight Ganon.

Answer: Sheik

Sheik, whose face remained covered until the end of the game, taught Link the warping songs as well as the location of the five sages that needed to be freed from dungeons/temples. One sage was already free and the other one was Zelda.

4. "Wind Waker" (Gamecube/Wii U) Zelda, incarnated as the pirate Tetra, fights alongside Link the final battle against Ganondorf. What is her weapon of choice?

Answer: Bow and Light Arrows

During "Wind Waker", Tetra/Zelda is initially mean toward Link and often takes the opportunities to humiliate him and gives him the dirtiest jobs on the ship. However, when she learns of her identity, she gains respect for him and the two become friendly.

5. Our danger-prone princess is turned into stone by Vaati in "The Minish Cap" (GBA) and needs rescuing once again. When Link frees her, what does Zelda do to return Hyrule to its peaceful state?

Answer: Wishes for things to return to normal

After Link slays Vaati, Ezlo tells Zelda to make a wish. Luckily, she is smart enough to wish the monsters and the darkness away.

Answer: Midna

After Link and Midna collect the three fused shadows, Zant steals them and injures Midna as revenge for not siding with him. Wolf Link takes Midna to Zelda who saves her after realizing that Link will need Midna's help in finding the Mirror of Twilight.

7. Which incarnation of Zelda reappears in "Phantom Hourglass" (DS)?

Answer: Tetra

"Phantom Hourglass" is a sequel to "Wind Waker" so it makes sense that Tetra reappears, although there are few references to Tetra being royalty. Tetra is kidnapped early in the game and during the ending sequence, she believes the whole adventure to be a dream.

Answer: Take control of a Phantom Knight

In the Tower of Spirits, Zelda must infiltrate a Phantom Knight in order to help Link advance. Doing so allows Link to cross lava, spikes and other obstacles that he would normally not be able to cross or defeat.

9. In "Skyward Sword" (Wii), Zelda performs another heroic action, this time to save the surface world. What is the action that she believes will prevent Ghirahim from resurrecting Demise?

Answer: She will sleep inside of a crystal for 1,000 years

Zelda is a descendant of the Goddess Hylia whom Ghirahim needs to resurrect Demise. Zelda believed that be sealing herself away, she will not be able to be captured. She is incorrect and Ghirahim resurrects Demise anyway.

Answer: A painting

Link must go around to the dungeons of Lorule and rescue the sages before he is able to battle Yuga and save Zelda. Interestingly, there is no particular or recommended order the dungeons must be completed in, except that Lorule Castle, where Zelda is hidden, must be last.
