It was just after Ganon was defeated and was sent to the realm by Zelda.

Zelda: Well, it’s finally over... again...

Link: So it is...

Zelda: Link, you need to give me the ocarina.

Link: Why?

Zelda: Well, you missed seven years of your life and Hyrule is a mess...

Suddenly, the six sages appear it a flash of light.

Rauru: Link! Great job kicking that guy’s ass!

Link: Thanks...

Rauru: For your outstanding courage and stuff, I will restore Hyrule... unless you would like to go back to your own time...

Link: I don’t mind staying here. I mean, early teen years are supposed to be hell right?

Zelda: You have no idea. (A.N.- Link and Zelda are both 17 in this fic)

Rauru: Alrighty then! I shall restore Hyrule.

And then Rauru used his power to restore Hyrule.

Rauru: There! Do you have anything else to say?

Link: Yes.

Rauru: What is it?

Link: Medic! (passes out)

Then they all realized that Link got beaten up pretty badly during that final battle. The sages left saying they didn’t know anything medicalish. Zelda brought Link to a doctor and Link had to spend a month in the hospital. After his recovery, Zelda and her mom (her dad’s dead, get over it) let Link live in the castle...
