The Final Day, also known as the Third Day or the Last Day, is the third and last of the three days of the cycle of time in The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask.
Overview[]
The Final Day is noticeably the darkest day as almost all of Termina's inhabitants are in a state of despair at the seemingly inevitable doom. The Clock Town Soldiers, who are forced to maintain their posts, urge the citizens to evacuate Clock Town. Clock Town's theme is altered and plays at a rapid pace with dark undertones and chords added. The random tremors throughout the day remind the citizens of Termina that the Moon is slowly falling closer and closer.
From 6:00 p.m. onward, Link will be unable to summon the effects of the Song of Double Time or dance with the Stylin' Scarecrow, as the dawn of the next day supposedly does not exist. During the final six hours of the day, a countdown timer appears below the game's normal clock display. In most locations other than dungeons, the normal music is replaced with a foreboding, hopeless theme, which is reused in Majora's realm before the final battle begins. At the end of the Final Day, the Moon will destroy Termina if Link is unable to prevent it.
