I (obviously) don't own anything related to LoZ. Thank you to Nintendo for their awesome series.
The LEGEND of ZELDA: The REBEL SAILOR
Long ago; ages before the discovery of black powder…
There was a kingdom where a golden power lay hidden.
It was a pleasant land blessed with peace and tranquility.
But a day came when a man of unsurpassed evil discovered the golden power.
Emboldened and substantially augmented by its mystical strength,
He sought to rule the kingdom, summoning minions and monsters to enforce his will.
Darkness spread across the land, consuming every hindrance in its path.
Going into hiding, the princess of the kingdom issued a desperate plea in the form of a magical call.
Months went by, and some say years…
...
Eventually, the people of the kingdom saw their doom closing in, and all hope was lost.
Finally, the call was answered, and the Chosen One appeared, wielding the legendary blade of evil's bane.
The Chosen One defeated the Evil King and restored peace to the land.
The Dark One routed, seven wise sages divided up the golden power into three equal parts, creating the mythical Triforce.
They bestowed the Triforce of Wisdom upon the princess, and they bestowed the Triforce of Courage upon the Chosen One.
Taking the final piece, the Triforce of Power, they locked it in an enchanted chest, magically sealing it with their combined power.
The sages then chartered the kingdom's greatest builders to create a temple; a fortified temple so complex and dangerous that no one would ever be able to reach its innermost room.
Then, before the temple itself was sealed, the seven wise sages locked the chest in that innermost room and destroyed the key.
As the centuries passed, the old kingdom was forgotten, and the Triforce and the Temple of Power along with it.
They survive only as a legend passed on generation after generation.
A/N - And so it begins. I'm sure you all saw the resemblance to Wind Waker's intro. I wanted to have a prologue like so many other Legends of Zelda, and my favorite is the one from WW. I also originally wanted to make this part into a video so it could have fitting music, but oh well. The next chapter will be up very soon.
