In a land far, far away there lives a boy. This boy was like no other because he is the key to many mysteries in the land of Paradise. This land is where he will find out why he has been chosen to be the warrior of destiny and the savior of the world. This story begins with Link, the boy, at his 15th birthday. He is opening his presents when some bushes start to rustle. Then there was a "ROAR!" and a scream. The scream was Link himself as a griffin was carrying him away.

"Hello young warrior of destiny. I am in need of your help. I am the guardian of a land that is being destroyed at a rapid pace. All I can tell you is that you must find our Guardian Stones that hold the essence of this land." The mythical beast explained to Link as they were flying into the horizon.

"Where are you taking me?" Link wanted to know.

"I am taking you to the land of Paradise. It is through a portal of which I have entered this world. During your visit to my land, you will undergo many grueling trials to see if you are the true savior of this world. I know that the first trial is to find the ancient sage. He will direct you to the next place where you have to go. He will also explain to you why you have been chosen." The animal-like beast told Link as they traveled through the swirling mass that was hovering in the air.

Link lost all sense of everything around him. He saw images in his mind. These images twisted every thought that Link had into nothingness. The images were of different places because he recognized some of them as places in Hyrule. There was he Temple of Time, Castle Hylia, and the Great Deku Tree, the one who had brought him up as a child. What he couldn't decipher were pictures of a monastery, a vast lake that wasn't Lake Hylia because he remembered the temple that was in the center and the land mass that it was built into, and finally he saw a place of stars and chaos. That last image made Link think of what he would dream about, even before he had visions of Ganondolf chasing the princess. This place was where he first met a darling young lady who told him of Ganondolf and his plans. he remembered it quite clearly. After a second the images disappeared, and Link found himself surrounded by dead trees. He picked himself up from the ground and looked around to acclimate himself with the land. He noticed that there was many dead trees all around him and that the sky was reddened by the dying sun. When his eyes darted to the griffin he noticed that he turned to stone and became dust as he placed his hand upon the face. Link went wandering around, looking for any place that a person would live. He ended up in a town. He wondered how a town could survive in a place like this, but he shrugged it off and entered the town.

When Link looked at the town name he saw that it was called Lang. The town of Lang had in its courtyard, Fire and Stone statues of griffins. Link wandered around asking people if they knew any such sages with any ties to the Guardian Stones. His efforts were in vain because no one knew any thing about the Guardian Stones or the sage. He went into a store and looked around. He saw a shield, a bundle of arrows, a wand, some bugs, a spell book, and a fairy. Link bought a shield, but he couldn't afford any thing else. So Link went along and exited the city of Lang. When he went out of the town he noticed something he didn't when he entered the town: a hidden cave in an inset of a cliff. The deadness around it made it almost impossible to see when entering the town. Link went climbing to the cave and slipped a little above the half way, but he grabbed on to a dead branch. He propped himself up on the ledge and sidled on the edge to get to the cave. Inside the cave was the old sage that the griffin had lead him to. The sage greeted Link and they started to talk about the history of the land of Paradise.

"Link, you must understand that your life has been intertwined into this whole mess of things. You are our savior, but where is the other messenger from a foreign land that was suppose to come with you?" The sage questioned Link.

"I was the only one who the Griffin captured. All he said was to search for you and to ask about the Guardian Stones." Link answered the old wizard.

"You mean you have met the guardian of this land? Only truly gifted warriors are awarded with his presence. So now you are to be trusted with the secrets of this land. that he had lived through the Age of the Stones. The age itself only lasted 100 years, so it had little effect on the history of this land. The Dark Age began about 200 years ago when a stupid fool opened the chest that was containing the stones and that fool dropped them and they shattered to pieces those pieces are the missing Guardian Stones. The Guardian who was inside those stones was released and was able to wreak havoc and chaos to the people of Paradise. The mighty sages of the Stone Era sealed the Guardian up eons and eons ago. Before this era there was a great evil walking the land. It was said that anyone who touched it would be consumed by evil. This evil was the source of all-evil on the land of Paradise. The evil was terrorizing the land, so a band of fearless magi formed a group that was called Fiends for they looked deformed and were outcasts. The group had enchanted a group of 7 stones to encase the daemon. When they cast the spell to encase it they made it so the even if only one was broken that the barrier would be shattered. So when that fool dropped the stones and shattered them to 14 pieces they opened a portal to which the daemon was able to enter this world again. This sage disappeared and Link was left with only a slingshot, a sword and a puff of smoke. Link picked up both the slingshot and the sword and went down the cave.

He slipped and fell to the ground. With a thud and another scream Link was shrouded with darkness. He broke through the surface and fell down a hole. When Link opened his eyes he saw hundreds of statues in rows. Link went down one row and surveyed his surroundings to see if he could find a way to get out of this predicament, but he didn't find anything useful. So Link went to the walls to see if any could be broken down by a little force, but to no avail. He did see, however, a door. When he tried to open the door it seemed like it was bolted shut. That was when he saw an eye of one statue glisten. He took his slingshot and filled it with a fragment of a stone and shot it right into the eye. With a crank and a crack the door slowly opened revealing another chamber with statues, but this one had some small details that the room before didn't: like some light in this room allowing Link to survey the room quickly, raised platforms, a window to the direction that Link was facing when he entered the room, and some monster, or what looked like monsters. Link drew his sword and went to work slaying the creatures. When the last one fell it left Link a map of the area around him. Link looked at the map and noted where he was by looking for the characteristics of this room. Then he noted that the window was supposedly facing a wall but when Link looked through the glass he saw another room with torches on the walls. Well Link didn't want to dwell on the subject so he went to work searching around for some way to exit the room. He noticed that a stone was pushed out from the wall. Link tried to push the rock into its place, but he couldn't push the stone. Then he tried to pull it and it popped out. With astonishment the wall that the stone was supporting crumbled revealing a beautiful mosaic wall with a door. Link opened the door and entered the room that lay behind it. It was the room with torches on the walls. It was in this room where Link first saw it, his map started to fill in the space where the room he was in was supposed to be. He was so startled that he backed up right into a torch pulling it down and revealing a secret door with stairs leading down. Link went down these stairs and opened the door at the bottom. He entered the room and saw the same monsters as he saw upstairs. He dispatched these monsters with ease and went to go look around when Link tripped and fell right into a trap that one of the monsters had set. Link saw red then black as he fell unconscious. The trap was a special indent to trip some one and a trip wire setting off a poison dart. In the blackness he saw a figure and this figure started to walk close and closer to Link. Link tried to draw his sword, but when he felt nothing he looked down and saw that its sheath was missing and so was the sword. Link tried and tried to run away, but by some magic he just stood in the same place. As the figure came closer Link's breaths were becoming faster and his blood pressure rose. His fear was overcoming him and he felt like he would just die from seeing the face of the figure. But when the figure came close enough so that Link could see the face he noticed and recognized it as Impa, Zelda's attendant, who was trying to speak to Link ever since he found himself on the land, but she couldn't because Link never fell asleep.

Now she had the chance, "Link, Zeldais missing and so is the Temple of Time along with the Master Sword. Also,Link, whenI tried to summon the other sages, they did not come.That's when the trouble started", Impa said, " Zelda was just writing in her diary when she disappeared into thin air. Then the Temple was gone. When Navi told me that you were taken away by a griffin then I got scared because I thought that there was no one able to save Hyrule again. Then the gods who we pray to every day said that they would open a portal to the past to figure out what had happened to the land. That is where you are, the Past of Hyrule, when it was just beginning it was called Paradise. Somehow the griffin got loose and took you to the past, but I don't know how it got there unless it involves magic. The portal to the future is somewhere there, but it can only be accessed withthree of the Spiritual Stones, which weren't created until the present. I can get there, but you need to find the portal and secure it so that I may be able to pass through. I don't want to be captured and live here for the rest of my life. I can give you the power to see things from the fragments. Just close your eyes and think of clear thoughts."

Link saw many different things ranging from men in cloaks to a meteor hitting Hyrule. When the thoughts stopped Link was back in the dungeon where he had fallen. Link got to his feet and continued on. He was looking at his map when he noticed something strange about the room, it was to small and the shape didn't match with the map. He went around looking at the walls and spotted the discoloring of one set of stones. He pushed and pushed and pushed until the wall gave way showing a chest and a lever. The chest looked strange because it's shape was almost like a "U". The lever had a carving on the top of it. It looked to be a skull, but a closer inspection revealed it to be a totem head. Link pulled the lever and the chest disappeared.

A voice in his head began saying, "Link things are not as what they seem. Look beyond the deception and illusion to find the true key to the fragment."

Link, startled, walked backwards on to the place where the chest was a minute ago. He tripped in thin air. He slammed his hand down onto the spot and it hovered in midair halted by something. Link felt his way to what it seemed to be the opening part and opened it into thin air. What Link saw was a staff with a couple of rings attached to one end? When Link held the staff and closed his eyes he saw men chanting some sort of spell, what looked to be a caged person, and some stones. After a while he saw a blinding flash and then the stones started to glow. Then the cage was surrounded be glowing orbs and a screeching scream came out. Within a second the cage was empty and the stones where hovering. The men grabbed a bag and placed each stone carefully into it while one of them went to go and get sarcophagi to place the cage in with the stones. Then the men exited the room and sealed the door. The crest on the door was that of Hyrule's royal family.

The vision was gone and Link came to the sound of moaning. When he opened his eyes he saw that he was in a cage and somehow was captured inside the dungeon. He shook of his tiredness and tried to move, but because the cage was so small he couldn't move a muscle. Link was scared; he knew what his fate would be he saw it for himself. As the monsters grunted and snorted Link remembered the sling shot and wiggled it out of his pocket. He grabbed it then found a stone. Then he pulled back as far as he could and released the projectile into the air. It hit the wall a couple of times, but it ricocheted off and had two direct hits to the monsters. Both of them fell down and dropped Link onto the ground with enough force to break open the cage and free Link. Link rubbed his head and ran in the opposite direction because he knew that the noise would attract more monsters that would try to trap him. He ran until he noticed that his sword was missing. He went back to the corridor and went in the direction that he was heading in the cage. He followed it until he found a door. He opened the door a little bit and peeked through. He saw the men chanting and the cage. He was seeing what looked to be a ritual in progress. Maybe it was a sacrifice to a specific and very weird god because of the recent troubles in the land if Paradise. Link then saw his sword lying against the wall. He sidled in and took the sword, but not before alarming the men who started to chant some sort of spell. Fireballs and energy balls started to come out of the druids' hands and they summoned hideous creatures to destroy Link. Link evaded some attacks, but most of them were direct hits. The druids summoned more and more creatures. To confuse Link even further they created illusions and duplicates. Link fought every monster till the last one died and then he drew his attention to the druids themselves. Most of them retreated and left the others to die. The eldest one stayed because he believed that he could destroy Link with his knowledge of Arcane Magic. He eventually died and left Link with a helmet, which was enchanted. The enchantment allowed Link to summon one creature per day if he would sacrifice some life. Link then found a pair of unique gloves beneath some old bones. These gloves allowed him to hold the hottest magma in the land. Link put them on and found a torch. He reached in and pulled out a smoldering piece of wood. He placed it in the slingshot and fired it at a tapestry hanging on the wall. The banner burnt and left an alcove in the wall. Link climbed up and checked out the alcove to see if any treasures were hiding in it. Link found a small key and a magic jar. Link went into the magic jar and was accosted by the old sage.

"Link, congratulations on finding me again. You are doing well up to this point in your adventure. Now I will tell you the monster's weakness." The sage said.

He told Link that there was a boss who guarded a piece of the stones which was given to him by the Guardian because he wanted to stop anyone from getting the stones and performing the ritual to fix them. The boss had one weakness it's tail. To utilize the weakness you need to stun it for a short while to get to it's tail. To help you along the way I will give you some magic knowledge. Here take this book. It contains a couple of first level spells and tricks. Use it wisely. He disappeared the same way he did before, but this time he left a book. Link picked up the book and jumped down from the ledge. Link went to the other side of the room and looked for a locked door. All he saw was a window and some indents leading up. Link climbed up the indents to the very top and looked around. He saw some more indents but they were in the ceiling. Link grabbed each one careful not to fall. At the end of the series of indents was a door in the ceiling. Link opened the door and propped himself through the door and into the next room. In this room he noted a lot of doors and stairs. Most of them were inversed. Link tried a couple but kept coming back to the same spot. When he stopped to catch his breath he noticed a sign. It read: TO FIND THE RIGHT WAY YOU NEED TO ENTER ONE DOOR AND EXIT TWO. CLIMB TWO STAIRS AND DESCEND ONE. After Link read the sign he was totally confused. He wondered how you enter one door and exit two. Then he remembered when you enter a room you can exit in any direction. So Link entered one room and exited two. Then he ascended two sets of stairs and descended one. That is where Link found the door that needed to be unlocked. When Link unlocked and entered the room he heard a slam. The door behind him slammed shut and became locked again. When Link turned around he saw a most heinous of creatures. It spoke to Link, "Link I know you want my fragment of the stones, but you won't get it. My name is Chaosky and I will be the one who will destroy you." The monster looked like a scorpion crossed with a snake. It had one eye and looked like it would poison you. It was then that Link remembers what the old sage told him. Link readied his slingshot with a piece of stone. He shot it, but it had no effect on the monster. Then Link almost gave up when he saw a piece of magma on the ground. He readied his slingshot again and shot the rock. This time there was a flash and a scream. The monster grabbed his eye and flailing about. Then Link unsheathed his sword and started slashing the monsters vulnerable tail. After many blows the monster finally fell and evaporated into the ground.
