You know as well as I that time is fickle, unyielding. It has been a very long time since our journey together, perhaps, but the peace stretches forward. If you find it appropriate to send me out to travel in this foreign land yet again, I will do so.

Rest assured, Princess, that peace will not stretch much longer. So long as the Triforce itself exists, so will our conflict.

I can rest assured in the absolution that between our inevitable conflict, there is a peace that we are allowed in your blessed defeat.

And you remain ignorant of the final end we are inexorably moving toward. So long as time marches on, our war will ever rage. The only way it ends is with my victory. Not even time is infinite, and there will be a time when not even it's own hero can save it.

On that day, I will relish damning you and your precious hero to the infinite void you so gladly confined me to. And on that day, I will listen as you both scream curses upon me and know that I have won. That there is no escape from a void that is without time. That you are already there and suffering that eternal damnation even as we speak.

Hyrule was born from the chaos of the void, and to that void it will one day return, I promise you that.

You are as blind as ever, Ganondorf, unable to see the future for what it really is. No matter how great the darkness you cast upon us, it will always be shed by new heroes, new brave youths who are born into this destiny. You are vastly overestimating your strength in the face of those who will forever defy you.

Even if you were able to throw the hero and I into your prison, there would be no screams or curses. I will only pray for Hyrule, that another rises soon to break your hold upon my kingdom.

What you seem to forget, princess is that light and dark are not two sides of a single coin as the Shiekahs have claimed. Darkness is simply an absence of the light. Darkness is eternal, and all encompassing. The Darkness has thrived since before time, and will continue to do so without it.

It is light that cannot survive without the darkness by which to define itself. Because of its reliance on the dark to provide its meaning, it can never - and will never - fully vanquish the darkness. All it can hope to do is simply prolong its transient and temporary existence.

You fight a war you cannot hope to win, against forces more persistent than you can comprehend. My victory will come. And when it does, you will know pain and suffering the likes of which none before or after will have ever known.

Your perspective is skewed, as expected. I will not concede to what is not true. We could debate light and dark and the passage of time until time itself ends, but neither of us will ever agree with the other.

We will win this war, and your reign will end. If your forces are persistent, than so are ours. You may achieve a victory in the future, but it will always follow with a defeat. This, I promise you.
