This is my very first fan fiction that I ever published. The prolouge isn't very good, but it's good enough of a kick start to what I belive, and what I hope you all think of as, a great story. Obviously, I wouldn't be able to hold a candle to great authors like Robert Jordan, but I can atleast try to get there!
Feel free to critique as you read, I appreciate every little bit that you say! Thank you, and, hopefully, you will enjoy reading this as much as I enjoyed writing it!
The Legend
Of
Zelda
The Last Wood-Elf
I. Prologue
Deep within the kingdom of Hyrule, there echoes a legend. A legend of three goddesses. Din, the goddesses of Power; Nayru, the goddess of Wisdom; and Farore, the goddess of courage. These three golden goddesses descended upon the chaos that was Hyrule. Din, with her flaming arms, cultivated the red earth. Nayru, with her wisdom, created the law of the world. Farore, with her kindred spirit, created the life that would uphold that law.
Then the goddesses, their labors completed, headed for the heavens, leaving behind them a golden relic, known as the Triforce. The Triforce was entrusted to the first race to have walked the lands, and the Wood-elves guarded the Triforce with their very lives. Eventually, the goddesses created the Humans, not as strong nor as powerful as the Wood-elves, but they helped build the world into a rich place.
Soon, the goddesses told the Wood-elves to place the Triforce inside the Humans' lands, and to guard the humans as well. The Wood-elves did as they were bidden.
Now, the Triforce had the power to grant its wielder's greatest desires. If the person who touches the Triforce has a pure heart, the Sacred Realm would become a paradise. But if someone with an evil heart were to touch it, the Triforce would break, and only the part of the Triforce that the evil one believes in will remain in his hand.
One such a day happened, when one with an evil heart touched the ancient relic. It broke into five, bestowing two boys and two girls with the other pieces, leaving the part of the Triforce that the evil believed in most, Power.
Why to four others, instead of two, you ask? The Triforce of Courage has too great a power for even a Wood-elf to wield safely, so it needed to be broken up into three. The three who possessed the Triforce of Courage fought all makers of evil, before battling the source of the chaos himself.
The evil king was locked away in the Sacred Realm. But that was not the last of him. Continuously, he found ways to break out of his prison, and he fought with the heroes' descendants. Always, in between battles, there was an era of peace. But then the evil king would somehow manage to rise up again, and would be beaten back down by the heroes' descendants. For thousands of years, this continued. Until one day, when he was slain. The three, Link, Leyla, and Jav, had done their ancestors' work, and killed him, only less than a year ago. They now live their lives, back in the place where it all started. Back in the place that they called home. Except…
Except to one, it did not feel like home. She had unlocked her true powers, and since then, she knew nothing of herself. She is now only filled with questions, and fear. Questions of who and what she is, or was, and fear, fear of what the answers might be. Fear, of herself.
