Hey! Long time no see! Don't hate me for being gone so long please ;) but I'm being serious with this story, hopefully by the time this first chapter comes out I'll be prepared with about half of the story prewritten, but no promises. I've been wanting to do a story like this for quite sometime, originally being an oc accompanying the main character, but that was boring and I've always been a sucker for an original story in a known universe. I'm dropping everything for this story, and Star's flight will be delayed for a very long time. Be prepared though, it's coming.
A quiet hovered over the lake, punctuated only by the footsteps of a young woman in her twenties. Though the freezing weather drove most inside, something about the night was irresistible to her, taking quick steps she came to the edge of the lake. Though dawn was approaching the night seemed to linger, turning it into a fake twilight, the woman stood there, drinking it all in. Cold hard eyes piercing the semi twilight, gazing at the cool waters, she could feel something foreboding about this night. Standing outside she enjoyed the fast approaching dawn, the sun rose with a sort of finality, as if it would be the last.
The woman shook her head, attempting to clear her mind of such dark thoughts, today was going to be a zora festival, and she always appreciated such things. Turning away from the lake she returned to her small cabin, yawning. Often she neglected sleep for dawn, hoping, praying that it would be there to greet her. The looming darkness this morning unnerved her, it was threatening, like a cloud of twilight swallowing up the land.
Shaking her head again she paused. Turning back to the lake she stared hard at the cave across. Had she seen a shadow move? Tensing the woman froze, whispering invaded her ears as the light around seemed to wash out and the dawn began to mute. Her mouth dried and she threw herself into the cabin, reaching out for the bow at the front door.
It was clearly no simple hunting bow, the wood was a gleaming ebony and intricate designs had been etched into the wood. Gleaming bright as the moon the gems set in the edges shined as a shadow descended over her. Tears spilled from her eyes as unearthly shrieks pierced the air, freezing her in place. Covering her ears she screamed as well, a bright flash came from the gems as destructive pain worked its way around her body, eventually coiling around her centre. She was aware of the door splitting open, the figure of an beast, the shrieking pain lashed out across her body again, twisting in agony she had no chance to scream as shadow infected her vision.
She could not feel, could not speak nor see. The pain was gone, but where it had coiled, she felt a pervading emptiness, as if it had stolen something important. Something gone that she would never retrieve, anger sludged through her mind, she was broken now, beyond any repair. The haze began to fade as the rage spread throughout her body, filling the void. Springing to life she lashed out unknowingly, only seeking to hurt. The distinct sound of crunching was music to her ears after the void she had endured and her teeth became wet as she realized that instead of punching or kicking she had bitten.
Vision restored she gazed at the beast before her. Some sort of mask covered its face, and black tentacles erupted from its gray body, long gangly arms with twisted fingers reached out at her. One askew she realized, from the bite she had delivered. Its body was thin and fragile looking, and it stood like an ape, relying heavily on its arms.
Her mouth gaped as she took in the creature, it was a beast of nightmares, something out of a mythos. It certainly fit in with the rest of the terrible monsters Hyrules history described.
The beast lifted it's head and screamed like a banshee freezing her in place. Unable to move she watched helplessly as it approached, the unearthly terror left her body all too late as the beast clubbed her in the head, effectively shutting her body down.
The beast let a satisfied snuffle before continue to drag it's captive down the cobbled bricks. Unbeknownst to anyone a shadow continued it watch, the wolf had blue eyes, blue eyes of legend. If anyone had been paying attention, they would've seen the smirk of a imp, eyes glittering with a hope she had thought dead.
