 Impa says that the mark on Link 's hand means that he is the hero chosen to awaken Zelda . She gives Link a chest containing six crystals and ancient writings that only a great future king of Hyrule can read . Link finds that he can read the document , even though he has never seen the language before ; it indicates that the crystals must be set into statues within six palaces scattered all over Hyrule . This will open the way to the Great Palace , which contains the Triforce of Courage . Only the power of the combined <unk> can awaken the enchanted Zelda . Taking the crystals , Link sets out to restore them to their palaces . Meanwhile , the followers of Ganon are seeking to kill Link ; sprinkling his blood on Ganon ’ s ashes will bring Ganon back to life .
