When Link retrieves the Ocarina of Time from the moat, he receives a telepathic message from Zelda, telling him that she won't be around anymore and to play the "Song of Time" in front of the Temple of Time's altar. Link makes his way to the Temple of Time and proceeds to use the three Spiritual Stones and play the Song of Time to open the Door of Time. Beyond it lies the legendary Master Sword, also known as the Blade of Evil's Bane, resting in the Pedestal of Time. Link draws the magical blade, unlocking the gateway to the Sacred Realm. Despite the Master Sword accepting Link as its wielder, it suddenly seals him away in the Sacred Realm. Ganondorf, who had suspected that Link might have already acquired the keys to the Sacred Realm, followed him, appears, and mocks him for leading him to the Triforce. Link watches helplessly as Ganondorf crosses over into the Sacred Realm with an evil laugh.
