Line 6:
...But, when these events were obscured by the mists of time and became legend... A mysterious wizard known as Agahnim came to Hyrule to release the seal. He eliminated the good King of Hyrule... Through evil magic, he began to make descendants of the seven wise men vanish, one after another. And the time of destiny for Princess Zelda is drawing near.|The game's opening cinematic}}
'''''The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past''''' is an action-adventure game developed and published by [[Nintendo]] for the [[SNES]], known as '''''The Legend of Zelda: Triforce of the Gods''''' in Japan and commonly abbreviated as '''''(A)LttP'''''
The story is set many years before the events of the original ''[[The Legend of Zelda (video game)|Legend of Zelda]]'' and its sequel, ''[[Zelda II: The Adventure of Link]]'', as stated by the game's manual (and reinforced by the official timeline of ''[[Hyrule Historia]]''). Link receives a [[Call to Adventure|psychic message]] from Princess Zelda, telling him to come and save her from her imprisonment in the castle dungeon. Link's uncle, a former knight in service to the royal family of Hyrule and the lad's guardian, is about to leave the house with a sword and shield in hand; seeing Link awaken, he promises to return in the morning and suggests Link remain in bed. Ignoring his instructions, Link later sneaks into the palace via the sewers in an attempt to rescue the Princess himself, and finds his uncle mortally wounded, unable to go on; he entrusts Link with the task of saving the Princess and gives the boy his sword and shield before dying.
