The Legend of Zelda: Secrets of the Gerudo

Chapter 1

Ten years after the events of Twilight Princess, the Gerudo princess sees a vision of Hyrule falling. She wanders out of the desert and makes her way towards Hyrule Castle to warn the royal family of Hyrule's coming downfall, making the Gerudo once again known citizens of Hyrule and pledging their allegiance to the Royal Family.

Dark clouds rolled in from every direction blotting out the sun. Fierce winds began howl, but no rain was in sight.. In the sacred desert dust devils arose with sandstorms. The river on the other side of the desert dried up completely. Ice in the mountains began to melt flooding the valley below with debris. The mountain which can be seen from the desert erupted. Races were killed wither bay lack of water or the destruction taking place around them. The ones left alive prayed for redemption fro the goddesses and asked the Great Fairy for her blessings. The last hope of Hyrule was destroyed when the light spirits disappeared and the royal family of Hyrule was killed. The Great Fairy was able to save the hero but there was nothing anyone could do the goddesses had forsaken them. Taking the triforces of wisdom and courage he used them to ask the goddesses blessings one last time with his life and the life of the Great Fairy as the cost. Even the it was not enough and chaos still reigned. One man appeared upon the horizon of the desert., his laughing voice ringing out upon all the land. "Hyrule and it's hero have fallen. The goddesses have forsaken this land and left me with all three pieces of the Triforce. It is now mine."

Aceline woke with a start. She was unable to see clearly at first which scared her fear it a side effect of her vision. A guard heard she was awake. "Princess, are you alright?" she asked. "Yes I'm fine. What time is it?" Aceline asked. "It's around three in the morning." The guard replied. "Saddle my horse and tell my maid to come here. It is time for the Gerudo to stop hiding in the shadows like the Sheikah. I'm going to Hyrule Castle. I've seen a vision of Hyrule's downfall and I'm going to warn the Royal Family." Aceline said. "Yes, princess." The guard replied. A short while later a young woman entered the tent followed by a middle aged woman. "I head that you asked for me miss." The young woman said. "Yes get my riding attire out and two of my formal gowns along with my slave bracelets and tiara. Get my gauntlets and my knee boots as well as my sword and bow." Aceline said. "As you wish Milady." The young girl said. "I heard from the guard that you are going to Hyrule to tell the Royal Family about a vision you saw. Do you realize that we have not shown ourselves to the Hylians in over 300 years and that you look nothing like a Gerudo yourself?' The middle aged woman said. "Yes, Mother, I realize that. Yet I'm still going. The Queen possesses the Triforce of Wisdom. She will be able to tell that I am not ;lying. I am the only one who can relay what I saw to others." Aceline said. "Be careful dear. You burn do easily. Ask for the Great Fairy blessing before you leave too. I wish you well my only daughter and the heir of my kingdom." The middle aged woman said as she left. "After Ganondorf was born and became consumed with greed we Gerudo cut all ties with him and hid deep within the desert. Still I do not know how the Hylians will receive her and through her us. Will they think us cowards for not fighting with them?" The middle aged woman thought..

Inside Aceline put on her riding attire. It consisted of loose purple cotton pants tucked into calf boots with thick soles for holding in stirrups. The top was purple with long loose sleeves that flowed outwards as it went down. Aceline's long blonde hair was pulled into the signature ponytail of the Gerudo and held with a large purple amethyst.. a small teardrop shaped amethyst was on her forehead as Aceline didn't like the large jewels other Gerudo royalty wore. She had loose leather gantlets on her hands for holding the reins. Lastly a purple veil was tied under her eyes above her nose. It was long so it could be used to cover her face in case of a sandstorm.. Aceline's mare was usually sued when she went riding but they decided to give her her stallion Ginjiro because of her need to get there quickly. She placed her two dress outfits in her saddle bag and attached her sword to her hip and her bow and quiver to her back.. SH then mounted her horse. 'Do you want someone to accompany you Princess?" The guard that saddled her horse asked?" "No, that would take more time. I will be fine on my own. Take care of my mother while I'm gone." Aceline said. "Of course. The Queen is our leader. If anything were to happen to her while you are away we would be leaderless and in an uproar. May the Goddess watch over you Princess." The guard said. "May it watch over us all." Aceline said as she rode away. Like her mother requested she stopped at the Cave of Ordeals and asked for the Great Fairy's blessing. She had been there many times as it was the training all Gerudo had to do. The Great Fairy gave her blessing and warned her of Hyrule's danger and sent her off. She rode until nightfall when she made it to the other side of the desert and decided to stop for a little as she'd been riding for almost 24 hours with small breaks here and there. Tomorrow morning before sunrise she would cross the ridge and ride straight to Hyrule Castle without stopping to make up for the time she would lose while resting. Her mother was right she was fair skinned and had light hair and eyes. She had heterochromia, having one blue eye and one green eye. She didn't look anything like a Gerudo save for her clothing. She hoped that she was right about The Queen. Wondering about what Hyrule looked like on the other side she drifted off to sleep.
