Summary

Having been returned to his childhood by Princess Zelda at the end of Ocarina of Time, Link goes on a search for a "beloved and invaluable friend", implied to be the fairy Navi. While traveling deep inside the Lost Woods, Link is ambushed by the Skull Kid and his two friends, the Fairy siblings Tatl and Tael. The Skull Kid makes off with Link's Ocarina of Time, and in the subsequent chase, Link is transported into the parallel world of Termina, where the Skull Kid uses his magic to turn Link into a Deku Scrub. During this process, Tatl becomes separated from the Skull Kid and Tael and joins Link to find them, becoming his Fairy companion for the remainder of the game.

In the caves beneath Termina, Link meets the mysterious Happy Mask Salesman, who agrees to return Link to his normal shape if Link returns Majora's Mask to him, an artifact of ancient power that was stolen by the Skull Kid. As Link embarks on this quest, he learns little by little of the looming catastrophe threatening the land: the Moon in the sky has assumed a horrible, evil face and has abandoned its orbit, and will collide with Termina in exactly three days. Link's quest to restore himself quickly becomes a quest to save the land, during which he not only returns to his original form, but acquires masks enabling him to freely transform between his Hylian, Deku, Goron, and Zora forms.

Eventually, Link succeeds in freeing the Four Giants, enigmatic deities who can halt the Moon's descent, and confronts the Skull Kid. At this point, Majora, the evil entity residing inside Majora's Mask, abandons its now useless host and retreats into the Moon. Link chases after it into the strange core of the Moon, and after a long and heated battle against the three incarnations of Majora, the entity is finally defeated and the menacing Moon disappears. Upon returning the now lifeless mask to the Happy Mask Salesman, Link leaves his new friends and continues his journey, while the people of Termina once more celebrate the dawn of a new day. During the celebration, a Zora identical to Link's Zora form is seen performing with The Indigo-Go's, implying that Link may have returned to the carnival temporarily, though this is never clarified.

Later on, Link lives a life of regret and becomes the Hero's Shade. It should also be noted that he had a child at some point, which led to his descendant in Twilight Princess.

Intelligence: Genius (Can use items right after wielding them, regarded from Tatl as good, defeated Skull Keeta in combat who led the Ikana Army who commented that he skillfully defeated him. Bested the Garo Master in combat, who states Link was spectacular, the Garo's are trained assassins. Could defeat King Igos Du Ikana's lackeys one of which comments they were the best swordsman of Ikana Valley, and defeated King Igos himself who was stated by Tatl to be on a whole different level from the other two. Could get through Stone Tower which King Igos states that not even hundreds of his soldiers could topple it. At this point, Link is a seasoned adventurer, having the events and experience of Ocarina of Time under his belt. Link also adapts extremely well to his new bodies, as well as the new powers and abilities granted to him when he transforms via the use of one of his masks)

Weaknesses: Using the Deku Mask lowers Link’s physical strength (though he's still able to wreck large chunks of ice) and is weak to fire. Zora Link is weak to fire and ice, Goron Link is slow (except while rolling and punching) and can not swim. To use the Giant’s Mask, Link needs a constant supply of magical power. Has a limited supply of magical energy available to him normally, and some of his equipment have limited ammunition.

Notable Attacks/Techniques:

• Song of Time: Link plays a song on the Ocarina of Time that rewinds time to an extent. Variations exist such as the Song of Inverted Time, which slows down the flow of time, and the Song of Double Time, which fast-forwards time to how far he wants.
• Song of Storms: A song taught to Link by Flat. When played, Link is initially surrounded by a whirlwind and then storms are created around his area.
• Song of Healing: An essential song taught to Link by the Happy Mask Salesman. When played, any troubled souls or evil magic can be "cured" by the song in certain conditions, turning them into masks whose powers can be used by Link. This song is the reason Link has the Deku, Goron and Zora masks.
• Fire Arrows: Imbues his arrows with the power of fire that explodes upon impact.
• Ice Arrows: Imbues his arrows with the power of ice that freezes the target upon impact.
• Light Arrows: Imbues his arrows with the power of light. His most powerful magic, these arrows have the power to dispel Ganondorf's magics and even stun him upon impact.

Note:

• This Link and the one from Ocarina of Time are actually the same person but in two separate timelines. Time travel was involved.

• While Wind Waker notes Adult Link gave up his Triforce of Courage when he was vanishing from the Adult Timeline, Young Link still retained the Triforce of Courage in his own timeline.
