The time is three days before
The years is seven previous
The place is new
There are strangers

There are familiar foreigners
There is the Spider
Deku

Normal
A new adventure is taking shape
Time shifts
Back and forth
Forth and back
Reality warps
The world changed
Things are not as they should be
The clock is ticking...
Destiny is moving...

"Weaver in Termania..."
Been given 72 hours
To tie up loose ends
To make amends
His eyes said it all
I started to fall
And the silence deafened
With a disgruntled and somewhat mournful expression on his new Deku face, the warped body of Link pushed open the doors into Clock Town. His eyes drew in the busyness of people, hurrying here and there. Some were building, some were fleeing. Deku Nut Link took a cautious step into this new setting, as if he were afraid the ground would split open from under him. He walked slowly, taking in the world around him. Tatl buzzed around impatiently, but the Deku Nut ignored her.
"Fancy seeing you here Nut-Boy." A familiar voice said.
Deku Link whirled around to see a teenage girl. She had golden-brown hair tied back in a braid. She wore a red shirt that cut off above her stomach. One eye was black and the other was white. There was a black mark, like a tear-line or a shooting star tattooed out of the corner of her white eye. She wore a black choker and black arm-warmers. She wore pants that hugged her hips, butt, and toned thighs...but were loose and long below the knee. She had no navel, and there were entwining black tattoos in its place. There were strings entwined around her fingers.
"Weaver!" Deku Link shouted happily. The Weaver smiled and scooped the boy up onto her shoulders.
"I'll take it you didn't choose your new look." She said.
"Yeah...where am I? What's with the people?"
"This is a place called Termania. I've been here for about a week. There are three days until this big festival time thing. I never really bothered to find out what it was. But..."
"But...what? What are you doing here?"
Weaver just smiled and began chatting about the town. Deku Link introduced her to Tatl and Weaver introduced them to Anju.
The first day passed.
"This town is convinced that the moon will fall." Weaver pointed to the great and ominous moon hanging dangerously over their heads.
Their conversation shifted to the Skull Kid. Tatl provided information, but Weaver knew nothing. She did know that something wasn't right. People had been whispering about a little ogre calling the moon. So when she found that the Skull Kid had stolen the Ocarina of Time, she decided to act.
"The Clock Tower won't open until the final night. We wait until then before we retrieve the ocarina."
So they waited.
Midnight of the final day came. When the tower opened, Weaver and Deku Link dashed up the stairs to the circular roof. Upon reaching the top, the Skull Kid was waiting. Weaver scowled.
"Why do you have that mask!" She shouted, eyes darkening.
"I found it." The Skull Kid said defiantly.
Weaver's fingers tensed. Strings that were once invisible now were taking form. Deku Link spied the Ocarina of time. He reeled back and a bubble appeared to form in his little wooded mouth. He shot it as a projectile. It hit the Skull Kid's hand and the ocarina fell. One of the Weaver's strings shot out and wrapped around it, keeping it from shattering. Deku Link grabbed it, and watched it morph into a different instrument.
"Details for another day!" Weaver shouted, ready to sever the Skull Kid's head.
'Day...Time!' Deku Link thought. The idea came.
The haunting melody of the Song of Time was soon heard.
When both the Weaver and Link opened their eyes, they noticed that the moon wasn't crashing…and that Link had been returned to normal. They seemed to be inside the Clock Tower. Weaver sat up slowly and looked around. Link was checking himself over and there was a Deku Mask at his feet.
"Well, you've gotten back what you have lost, haven't you?"
The two instantly focused on the sound. A strange mask salesman walked into the light. The Weaver tensed. The man explained the story behind the strange mask that the Skull Kid was wearing. He also explained a bit of the powers of time.
"So…if we can bring the protectors here, we can keep the world from ending." Tatl said.
"Then…shall we go?" Link asked when they walked into the light of the first day.
"To the swamp then." Weaver said.
They all nodded, passed through the gates and into the world.

We let the game commence.
