A 32 page long Manga included in Nintendo's Hyrule Historia artbook. Link the Hero foretold that the Demon King would arise to obtain the Triforce for his nefarious desires, but his warning fell on deaf ears. Framed and imprisoned, he was left chained for four years. Yet the people returned, begging for his aid when his prophecy was revealed to be true. At the same time, the goddess Hylia descends riding a crimson Loftwing, a bird of the gods. She offers the people a way to escape into the skies, but Link vows to defeat the Demon King—no matter the cost. (Source: MAL Rewrite)

Released in 1998, it is an interesting adaptation of the classic videogame. There are two parts to this manga: 'Child Saga' and 'Adult Saga'. The protagonist is Link either as a child or an adult and during the course of the book he is on a quest to stop Ganondorf from taking over Hyrule. Princess Zelda helps him in his quest. The book more-or-less follows the same plot as the game; however there are a few differences in plot from the game. There are ten chapters in the first book, and eight in the second. Some of the added information in the manga is added to explain certain points; for example, in the manga pierced ears is a traditional rite of Sheikah passage, although this is not included in the game.
