Princess Zelda (Era of Light and Dark)

Princess Zelda is the titular deuteragonist of the 1991 action-adventure game and a major character in the linked game of 2001 sequels and . She is the Princess of Hyrule who rules it fairly. She is the damsel in distress who needs to be saving from Link. 
==History==
===A Link to the Past===
Princess Zelda is depicted as a Maiden descendant of the Seven Wise Men who had imprisoned Ganon in the Dark World many years earlier. One day, Ganon uses the evil wizard Agahnim to kidnap the descendants to sacrifice them and free him from his prison and wreak havoc on Hyrule once more. 
As a last resort to stop Ganon, Zelda uses her telepathic powers to contact Link to save her. Agahnim, however, manages to capture Zelda and sacrifices her to the Dark World, breaking the seal between Hyrule and the Dark World and allowing Ganon to enter Hyrule once more.
Link eventually frees her and alongside the other maidens, they break the seal surrounding Ganon's lair, which allows Link to enter it, where he fights Agahnim, defeating him a second time, then goes on to vanquish Ganon. After that, he makes a wish with the power of the now-freed Triforce to return Hyrule to its peaceful state before the incident.
===Oracle Series===
Zelda is revealed to be the hope of the people of Hyrule. She sends Impa to Labrynna and Holodrum to find Nayru, the Oracle of Ages, and Din, the Oracle of Seasons, and bring them to Hyrule for safety against an impending attack from Twinrova using their minions in Onox, General of Darkness, and Veran, Sorceress of Shadows. If both games are linked, the players must then defeat both Onox and Veran in the linked game. Twinrova will then kidnap Zelda to sacrifice her to resurrect Ganon. The plan does not go according to plan (as Link rescues Zelda, forcing Twinrova to sacrifice themselves instead), and the Ganon that is resurrected by Twinrova's self-sacrifice is mindless and raging and is defeated by Link. Zelda and Link are then rescued from the collapsing Room of Rites by the Maku Tree and returned to the land where Link entered the Room of Rites from, reuniting with Impa, Din, and Nayru.
