The Legend of Zelda

After math

Hyrule Castle- 7:00 pm

A man with black hair wearing "magic armor" kneeled before Princess Zelda, she stood their and reached for the sword one of her trusted servants handed her. It was "her blade" the sword strictly given to the Royal Family of Hyrule. She placed the sword over his left shoulder, then raised it and set it on his right. She then asked him to rise, he stood up with an honored smile. "You are now Sir Velith Myrryl, the royal warrior of the Holy Knight's of Time." The Princess smiled as he turned around and bowed to the crowd as the applauded him. Zelda raised her left hand and the crowd went silent.

She began to recite the history of the Holy Knight's of Time or the H.R.T. also referred commonly as "heart warriors". "During Hyrule's dark age." She began, "Our entire land was covered in an evil we had not even begun to understand. Our world had been covered in a thick blanket of "Twilight" however, out of this thick blanket came a hero… the hero that came before that when Ganondorf the king of demons tried to take over, and before that, and before that. In honor of his frequent and seemingly mystical rescues over the generations, the sages, and the Hylian Royal Family have put together the H.R.T. that represent the strength in our hero, and the strength in our nation at that time. It represents how during such dangerous and dark times, we stood together and concurred over our fears, and the evil that faced us."

She then gave Sir Velith a sword, a fake but still powerful copy of the Master Sword, to represent the courage he showed, just like the Hero of Time. The crowd applauded him once more as he walked down the blue and gold carpet out of the castle's thrown room, and back out into the castles town…

Kakariko Village- The next day 11:00 A.M.

Velith woke up in the Kakariko Hotel, he spent a long night at the castle and an even longer one at the hot spring, still though, his body seemed to ache. He looked around the room; it was one room that held 2 beds, to his left was the door out into the living quarters. He cracked his neck from side to side, then stretched out his back as he looked at his armor that was next to his bed. It was gold, with a tint of green around the edges, and red trimming. It was lighter than most armor so he slipped it on quickly, then headed down stairs to pay for the night. He picked up his luggage next to the counter and rang the bell located on top of the counter. A frail young man, with large glasses came out, and smiled at his sight, "My goodness! Your Sir Velith Myrryl are you not?" he asked excited. Velith smiled, "Wow… had no idea word traveled so… uncomfortably fast." The man laughed, "Oh its not that! I work with the Royal family from time to time, you know… organization and what not, I'm not in the shape to do what you do good sir!" Velith knew what he meant, but he still believed strength was a mental thing, not physical. "Oh I'm sure you would do just fine!" he stated with confidence. "That's very kind of you sir, anyway, you stayed one night yes?" Velith nodded and pulled out his wallet, ever since difficulty with rupees, the Capital of Hyrule finally made money out of paper to help there people with carrying it. The young gentlemen looked at some papers and saw Velith's name written down. "Ah! Well… normally its 100 rupees, however you get the H.R.T. discount so… that will be 80 rupees good sir." With that Velith pulled out 4 twenty's and handed them to the man. "Thank you." He replied putting the cash into a small metal container. "You have yourself a nice day now!" he said waving to Velith as he walked out the door, "you too!"

When Velith opened up the door a huge burst of heat came rushing into him, "DAMN! Why is it so hot here!?" he asked in the mere shock of the temperature. He then looked over at his horse and began putting his luggage onto the horses back, he then mounted himself on top of it and took one last look at everything before leaving, he then galloped pass Malo-mart, the Chief's house, and of course the fairy spring before leaving the village completely. As he rode, he felt a cool shiver run down his back, and then he felt his heart beat quickly, he pulled back on his horse until it came to a halt. He gripped his heart… he got that feeling again… the feeling he got… when he was around HER… he never understood how… or why… he simply looked up into the sky for a moment… "Midna… what exactly happened that day?..." he whispered to him self… he then swiftly jabbed his boots into the horse's side and moved on…
