''The Golden Power'' is notable for both its world-building and the manner in which it approaches the Triforce. Ghent and its host of original characters are a completely original addition to the mythos yet they slide into the setting as naturally as if they had always been there. The Triforce and what it means to be a bearer of the Triforce are also handled with an unusually epic flair; Link and Zelda are portrayed as myths walking among mortals, larger than life [[{{Exalted}} Exalted-like]] superbeings for whom the impossible is routine.

With no particular destination in mind, Link accepts a request to investigate suspicious military maneuvers being performed by Hyrule's neighboring country of Ghent and finds himself swept up in a conspiracy that threatens to destroy both nations. Meanwhile Zelda plots to turn Hyrule from a shattered wreck of a kingdom into the greatest superpower on the continent while also dealing with scheming nobility and courtly politics. And far to the east, the Gerudo nomads are rocked by the appearance of a new bearer of the Triforce of Power.

!!'''This fanfic contains examples of:'''
*BagOfSpilling: Played with. Link went around returning some of his gear to the temples between Twilight Princess and the start of the story because objects like the Master Sword and the Hero's Bow are cultural and/or religious artifacts that he thinks he has no business hanging on to now that Ganon has been defeated. He keeps his bomb bags, quiver, clawshots, and most of his other gear however.
*{{Brainwashing}}: Attempted twice. Backfired ''horribly'' on the brainwasher in [[spoiler: Zelda's]] case.
*TheChessmaster: Zelda is a heroic version, [[ManipulativeBastard if also occasionally ruthless]] when the situation calls for it.
*ExcuseMeWhileIMultitask: Zelda does this almost constantly. One of the benefits she gets from the Triforce of Wisdom is “multiple independent reasoning centers”, meaning she can follow multiple trains of thought simultaneously and spin wheels-within-wheels plots while carrying on a conversation with her advisers.
*FantasyCounterpartCulture: The Principality of Ghent is fantasy France on the surface at least insofar as the local language (and the casual contempt for foreigners) is concerned.
*{{Expy}}: Ghent's troll population loves their voodoo and speak in thick Jamaican accents. [[{{Warcraft}} Sound familiar?]]
*GodSaveUsFromTheQueen: Zelda dips into this trope from time to time; while she's usually TheHighQueen, she's also very pragmatic and quite ruthless when the situation calls for it, and isn't above taking political prisoners to keep her more unruly vassals from plotting against her.
*InHarmsWay: The entire premise.
*SmugSnake: David Reynalds, Earl of Ordonia. He thinks he's a ManipulativeBastard but Zelda can usually make his plans blow up in his face with minimal effort, [[EyeScream sometimes literally]].
