Long ago there were four protecters of the world. These protecters were giants. However, the giants grew tired and told the people to call them if there was trouble. And with that they went 100 steps north, 100 steps south, 100 steps west and 100 steps east. But a friend to the giants: an imp, grew very angry at the giants for leaving him, and started to reek havoc on the four worlds. The people cried for help, and as promised the giants came. When they found out what the imp had done, they banished him from the four worlds.

Years Later something odd happened.

Link was travaling through the woods one day on his trusty steed: Epona. However, a skull kid (with two fairies no less) wearing a very odd mask, knocked him off his horse, and stole her (Epona) and the Ocarina, running off into a large log tunnel. Link follows to get his things back, but litterally falls into another world. There he find Skull Kid with his Ocarina, but not Epona! She had run off. Link begins sheath his sword, but the skull kid turns him into a deku! One of the fairies: Tatl, decides to taut Link, but she gets left behind by the skull kid. Distresed, Tatl makes up with Link and the two decide to team up, and find Skull Kid and see what hes up to and to try to heal Link back to normal.

Eventually, Link enters a strange clock tower, where he meets a strange man. It turns out theis Man is a mask collecter, and that Skull Kid had stolen his most precious, but dangerous mask: Majora's Mask. This Mask is said to be filled with evil power. The Happy Mask Man tells Link that he will heal him if he brings back Majora's Mask. From there link exits the clock tower into Clocktown, which is in the strange world: Termina, where the moon will crash down to the earth in three days. What is Link to do?
