((A/N: This is my newest addition to my Zelda Fics. It's beign called 'The Empire' as of right now, because I have no clue what I should call it. Anyways, I plan on this to be long and... different. I hope you all enjoy what I come up with!))
It is the 20th century...
Peace has but swept the entire world of Hyrule, a prosperous land full of beautiful forests and mountains. The world is ruled over by its princess. She has long kept the peace throughout the land, as did her ancestors for over a millennia.
The world has built itself around this peace. This land used to be a land full of wonderful creatures that no one would ever have imagined, that used the very essence of magic. Creatures that evolved to its surroundings, such as the mountain Gorons, or the aquatic Zoras. Each and every creature, good and bad, built the circle of the kingdom.
Though, centuries later, most knowledge is gone. These creatures have vanished, evolving into humans. Magic has ceased to exist, and is now considered a lost art. Swordplay is all but forgotten, as the invention of gun powder has become prominent. Though these magnificent things have been lost, peace has been kept.
Within the centuries, the world has become infatuated with its technological advancements. Energy to run machines. Automobiles and other forms of transportations, rather than horseback. Consequently, with these good advancements comes genetic experimentations.
All the knowledge of the past is nearly lost... but the ruins remain to guide the archaeologists. Many of the legends of the Chosen Heroes has been forgotten. The history of the Evil King is only history. The goddesses and the Triforce have all been forgotten by the people of Hyrule. The only knowledge that is left of this old land is in the hands of the Royal Family. But all of the information is written in the books in Old Hylian.
Peace grew stronger... but then one day...
A beast that was thought to be forever destroyed had returned, the reason unknown. The same day the best returned, the princess had mysteriously disappeared.
A few days later, this monster claimed himself as emperor, and began his horrid reign all over the land. Black clouds blocked the light. Cold breezed freeze the land. Within a week, the land of Hyrule, once coveted for its beauty and peace, became a land of chaos.
Soon after this outrage began, many people formed resistance groups against this evil emperor. Their major goals were to find the princess and destroy the emperor.
Many of these groups still remain unknown to this new empire. Many pledge their lives to the emperor. Others risk their lives to the resistance, such as this young man from the city hidden in the forest...
