Summary: The Story of Ganondorf, told in all it's Unholy Glory.
Through a Nightmare Darkly
Chapter 1: Prologue of Ignorance
--
Ganondorf…a name that strikes fear into the hearts of men. We, the people of Hyrule, have come to know this man as the Ultimate Evil, the Scourge of the Earth, the Wrath of the Gods, an immortal being that will forever plague our children's dreams. But even the Ultimate Evil has a beginning…a childhood…a life.
For he was never always evil. Most people don't know this. The ignorance of people can be unfathomable at times. We write him off as a man with no morals, no care for people, families, or friends…but the question remains: How was this caused?
The answer…closer than we think. For we see it everyday of our lives. When we talk to our friends, love our lovers, feed our children. For whenever you look into the eyes of a Hyrulian…there the answer lies. Us. As shocking and disturbing as it sounds, that is the reason. Us. We brought upon ourselves the Destruction of a Thousand Wraths. Us. The neglectful, spiteful people that we are. Judging all others as lowly barbarians who have no chance to ever gain civility. Us…us…us...
This book will hopefully reveal the undeniable truth of us Hyrulians. For I can no longer stand the injustices that are brought forth by us. The ignorance, the stupidity, malice, hate, and spite can longer be accepted by us Hyrulians as adequate behavior. We see ourselves as noble beings, the closest race to the Gods. But it is not they who are barbarians…it is us.
In the following pages, the story of Ganondorf will unfold. I warn you this…this is not a story that is to be taken lightly. It shows why he became evil, in all its misery and wretchedness. You ask: How do I know this? Well…everything will be explained in due time, my friend. In due time.
For now, this is his story…
