My Ganondorf tribute video In order to fully understand my intentions with this video, one may need at least a passing familiarity with Norse mythology, specifically the events of Ragnarok, to see why they can correspond to Ganondorf. It also helps if you like Heavy Metal, as the song used is by Amon Amarth.

Explanation of the lyrics and why they fit with Ganon:

I rise up from Muspelheim

My fury is sublime

The sword I bring burns violently

With wild and lethal flames

(Ganon's original incarnation as Demise, arising from imprisonment and bearing a firey, evil sword.)

I march against the Asa gods

To bring the end of time

I am pure and endless pain

And Surtur is my name

(Defilement and rebellion against the rule and law of the Goddesses.)

See me rise, the mighty Surt

Destroyer of the universe

Bringer of flames and endless hurt

Scorcher of men and earth

See me rise, the mighty Surt

Destroyer of the universe

Bringer of flames and endless hurt

Scorcher of men and earth

(Ganondorf's attainment of demigod level power and transformation into the Demon King Ganon)

Swordless Frej with horn in hand

Rises to his final stand

He doesn't stand a single chance

I'll split his living corpse in half

(Link, disarmed, fighting a most-likely losing battle...)

And yet he stabbed me in the eye

He drove the horn in deep

The overwhelming, raging pain

Is driving me insane

(...but emerging victorious despite the odds!)

The waves of flames that I've unleashed

Will eat us all alive

The rage that burns within my hearth

Is uncontrolled and wild

And now everything shall die

(Ganondorf's rage, hate, and demigod-like power.)

Massive waves consume us all

The ocean is released

Our dying world quakes underneath

And sinks into the sea

(Hyrule, under the Great Sea, finally being truly flooded and allowed to die.)

And now nothing will survive

(Ganondorf's attempt to kill Link and Zelda and deny them the future Daphnes Nohansen Hyrule intended to give them.)

Extinction waits for everyone

For Gods and men alike

When all are gone of the old world

A new one will arise

(Ganondorf's ambition to remake the world in his image.)

See me rise, the mighty Surt

Destroyer of the universe

Bringer of flames and endless hurt

Scorcher of men and earth

See me rise, the mighty Surt

Destroyer of the universe

Bringer of flames and endless hurt

Scorcher of men and earth

See me die, the mighty Surt

Destroyer of the universe

Drowning in waves that floods the earth

The beginning of a new rebirth

See me die, the mighty Surt

Destroyer of the universe

Drowning in waves that floods the earth

The beginning of a new rebirth

(Ganondorf's death in two seperate timelines, paving the way for a new incarnation as per Demise's unending curse.)
