Chapter 1: Prologue
The Land of Hyrule was in a terrible war. This war had started several years ago, when the different races were after the Sacred Hallows of the Sacred Realm. There was a prophecy made concerning them. Each one corresponded to a different powerful trait. The Invisibility Cloak allowed its wearer to become invisible, and sneak into the enemy's camp undetected. The Resurrection Stone allowed one to bring the dead back for a short time to learn about their mistakes. The Elder Wand was a powerful stick of magic, and could cast any spell with no drain on the caster. The prophecy stated that only one with the elements of Power, Wisdom and Courage in balance could use all three at once. If the person who grabbed them didn't have all three elements in balance, the objects would split, and the one who touched the sacred artifacts was left with the object related to the element he most believed in.
The war had gone on for years now, with no end in sight. The Hylian knights were losing men, as were the Merpeople, Giants, Humans and Gerudo. many were getting married and having kids as soon as possible, so they'd have an heir to carry on, should they die. One such couple were the Potters. James Potter was a knight wqorking for himself. Lily Potter was a Human mage. She and James had a 1 year old baby boy with them. On the other side, the Gerudo were fighting them, led by Tom Riddle. He was after the Hallows, so he could conquer death, and killed anyone in his path. Flashes of sickly green light occured almost constantly, and sweat was starting to appear on Tom's brow.
"Give up, Knights. You can't win. It is hopeless." as he talked, he cast more green spells, and more people dropped like flies.
"We won't give up! Lily, I'll distract him, you run to the forest behind you. It is a safe haven that he can't enter, not during war at any rate." James pushed his opponent back with his shield as he said that, and deflected a green spell.
"Al-alright. Just come back to me!" Lily ran off then.
"Chase her! Don't let her get away!" Some of his followers, mages, ran after Lily then. They cast red lights at her, and one even threw his ax at her,hitting her square in the back, but she kept running, as blood trailed behind her. Once she entered the haven, her followers stopped in their tracks, and had to return.
In the safe haven, Lily collapsed on the ground, already feeling herself transforming. Hagrid, the guardian of the woods, approached her, and noticed the injury. Even transforming wouldn't save her.
"Please... t-take my ch-child... Raise him... as your own... T-tell him... what happened... when he's old enough.... I beseach... thee...." Lily gave her last wishes with her dying breaths, before taking one more, and going still. Hagrid took the one year old into the forest, while outside, James was mortally injured trying to force Tom back. Eventually, Cornelius Fudge stood, and took Kingship, stopping the fighting, as he united the nation. Tom was forced to retreat, but threatened to return. All the nations returned to where they belonged. The Humans to Ordon, the Giants to Death Mountain, the Merpeople to their domain east of Kakariko, the Gerudo to the West, and the Hylians to Kakariko.
