The Mercenary of Darkness
By Evil Excalibur

Chapter 1: Prologue

Long ago, in a distant land named Hyrule, a young boy named Link awoke as the Hero of Time and saved land from the Gerudo King named Ganondorf. Short after that, Link began a new journey, a journey in search of a beloved and invaluable friend. What he did not know was, that a bigger adventure, probably the biggest of them all, was awaiting for his arrival, at the distant land of Termina.

Once he got there, he learned that there was some powerful being trying to
destroy everything. Short while after, Link noticed that this being was actually a friend of his, the one he was looking for and learned that in order to save him he had to travel through time and release the power of
the four gods that guarded the land of Termina.

He traveled through poisonous swamps, frozen mountains, murky waters and tall towers in order to release the gods' power. Having saved the last one at the Stone Towers, Link walked along with a girl he met at the beginning of this story when a mysterious man came out of nowhere and fell in front
of The Hero of Time and his friend, a girl he used to call Kid.

Mysterious man- Halt! You're not going anywhere!
Link- Who are you?
Mysterious man- I am a Garo Master, the brother of the one YOU killed
Link- What do you want?
Garo Master- Revenge!

The Garo Master dashed straight at Link, holding his flaming blades in
front of him. Link dodged the attack.

Link- Kid, get outta her before you get hurt.
Kid- No way I'm leaving ya behind, mate!
Link- Just go!
Link looked back and saw the Garo rushing back, but this time he didn't have enough time or space to dodge the attack. The blow was so strong that
it threw Link down into the bottom of Ikana Canyon. His head smashed
against a wooden platform and his body fell into the river. Kid, after seeing her only friend in Termina fall, jumped into the river, praying for
Link's safety, without knowing that he was no longer in the world.
