Yep, it's the Story…
Long ago, there existed a kingdom where a golden power lay hidden. Which of course, having this "golden power" meant that the people here were screwed ten times over because some psychotic evil guy would try to take it for himself. Well, that's exactly what happened! A psychotic evil guy found this power and took it for himself. The people thought that they were fucked for sure… But then, some random boy clothed in green who wore leggings that were too damn tight suddenly appeared out of nowhere. Wielding a blade that repelled evil, he sealed the evil dude somewhere and gave light to the land. The boy, who traveled through time, and is pictured riding a poor excuse for Epona, was called the Hero of Time. The boy's tale was passed through generations until it became a legend like most of these epic adventure/hero stories do.
But then, a fell wind began to blow across the kingdom. Yes, the psychotic evil guy crept forth from the depths of the earth to terrorize the people once again. Apparently, the hero didn't do that good a job sealing this guy away, the cheep little bastard… The stupid people thought that the Hero of Time would save them again. But he did not appear. Apparently, he fled before the worst of it happened. So what happened to the kingdom? How the hell would we know! There's nobody around to tell us!
Well, to cut a long story short, nobody cares what happened to the kingdom, yet it's legend survived on the wind's breath, which is weird because how do "wind" and the "Hero of Time" relate to each other?
So now, on a certain island, it became customary to garb boys in green when they come of age. They had to search for some heroic blades or something to cast down evil. So these people dressed their boys up as the random kid in green with the really tight leggings who basically didn't save the people when they were counting on him! Eh, it's good enough… But as always, the elders wish they knew courage like the hero of legend… Nah, they just liked seeing the boys in really tight leggings, if you know what I mean…
