So this is another Zelda story. I'm hoping it'll be better than the other one I wrote. Enjoy and review it.


Link stepped down a deserted corridor. He was starting to get used to his new home in Hyrule Castle, but, as happened often, he was lost again. Everything around him was silent, and at the end of the hallway was a door. He walked to it and pushed it open. Light blinded him for a moment, but then his eyes adjusted. He was in a grand library, larger than any room he had ever seen. The wall opposite him was a giant window, and he walked over to it and peered out. He had a view of a almost all of Hyrule from here. In front of him was Hyrule field, and below him was the castle town. Death Mountain stood tall over to the left, and he could see a faint gleam of Lake Hylia over to his right. The view was spectacular.

The young man decided to browse among the books. He found history of the land, fantasy stories written by many deceased authors, and even a small area for legends that noone knows to be true.

The area of legends caught Link's attention. He spent hours reading through books speaking of holes in the ground that could only be opened by hitting them, or of caves that housed powerful fairies. He smiled, feeling special that he knew that these legends were true. After reading about 5 books, he stumbled across one that had an unfamiliar legend in it. It was called, "The Legend of the Sages". At first he thought that it was about the sages, and if they really existed. After reading it, though, he found that it was about something that the sages had never mentioned. The book said;

"Legends speak of seven sages. The sage of light, the forest, fire, water, shadow, spirit, and time. However, the first six sages are usually associated with each other in a group, and the seventh works separately from the others. This legend is about the first six. It is said that the first six have complete control over whatever the rule over. This meaning that, for example, the sage of water can control water, and the fire sage, fire. However, since few people have ever seen the sages, this has yet to be proved."

Link thought of the sages. He had an extremely vague knowledge of what they did, and he mostly guessed about their role in Hyrule. He always thought of them as protectors of whatever they ruled over. He knew they had powers, but it wasn't until now that he thought about what they were. He decided to ask Zelda what they were.

Link found the princess in her garden. She was sitting on a bench, looking at the flowers. He sat down next to her and wrapped his arm around her waist. She leaned up against him.

"What are the sages' powers?" Link asked.

"That's an unusual question," Zelda said, smiling. "Why?"

"I found this book about them."

"Oooh, you found the library. The book you're talking about is true. The sages can control whatever they rule."

"Does that mean I can too?" Link asked, pulling six medallions out from under his shirt. The six sages gave them to him so he could have some of their power.

"I'm not sure, you'd have to find out. Does this mean you're going on another adventure?" Zelda asked sadly.

"What's wrong?" Link asked.

"You just moved in here, and now you're leaving. I don't want you to go."

"It'll only be for a few days. I just want to go and see Saria. She'll help me."

"Fine. Don't be gone for too long, though," the princess said, looking down at her flowers. Link tilted her head up and kissed her. He could feel her smiling. Then he got up and walked out of the garden, away from the castle, through the town, and entered Hyrule Field. He turned and faced the direction of Kokiri Forest. He began to walk.
