Gannon is the final boss of The Legend of Zelda. He kidnapped Princess Zelda and holds her hostage in his lair at Death Mountain. After obtaining all eight Triforce Pieces, Link can enter Level 9 to slay Gannon and rescue Princess Zelda.

[edit] Battle

Gannon's chamber contains statues that shoot fireballs at Link while Gannon himself teleports around the room, though he is invisible as he does so. Gannon also attacks by shooting fireballs that do a decent amount of damage. To damage Gannon, Link must blindly swing his sword in hopes of hitting the invisible Gannon, who will briefly turn visible whenever Link's sword connects. After Link gets in enough hits with his (the number of hits depends on the strength of the sword), he must shoot a Silver Arrow to finish off the antagonist. Once he has done so, Gannon crumbles to ash and vanishes, leaving the Triforce of Power for Link to take so he can rescue Princess Zelda.
