With Nintendo's announcement of an Ocarina of Time remake, a beloved 1998 adventure stands at the threshold of reinvention — and with it, the question of what a story can afford to lose. The game's bosses are not merely obstacles; they are the architecture of a mythology, each encounter a chapter in Hyrule's long unraveling under Ganondorf's shadow. To remake this world faithfully is to understand that some confrontations are not gameplay mechanics but moral reckonings — with corruption, with time, and ultimately with oneself.
