    I always find it strange that the NPCs ingame always rely on Zelda and say that she will save them when Link is an absolute menace. I've heard many times that a full power Zelda should be able to easily beat Link because she has control of time and light but I don't think that's the case. Link slayed dragons and beat the person who defeated Rauru and all six sages at once including Zelda. He even defeated him alone because Ganondorf easily defeated the five sages again and if Zelda would be there he would've beaten all six. That's also why I really like that one scene from Totk where Rauru says to Ganondorf that Link will beat him. That was too epic and the only time Link got acknowledged. So yeah, Link is just too powerful for them. I even restricted myself and didn't use my Bow because Ganondorf lost too much health too quickly when I did and he's literally the final boss
