Chain of Fate
Prologue
So this is how I have ended up in life. Marriage is like commitment, right? Then it's clear to me that I am not wedded properly.
Can you imagine yourself forcefully married to an insane power crazed man, who is king of the Gerudos? That's right. Ganondorf.
Most women complain that their men drown their sorrows and miseries of their shallow lives with alcohol, but his is based purely on power, and he channels it through fear.
This is why I lie here now, bruised and beaten for simply voicing my own opinion. A thing of pleasure, which the novelty has increasingly worn off.
Does he not realise that his son stays here with me, confused and knows little of his father. I understand that a king has to be busy, so why did he do all this?
Does he not realise that everyone treats me so badly? Some hide, some spit at me for Ganondorf's treachery. As if the trouble must be heaped onto my shoulders.
I hear the Hero of Time will sometime arrive. I am sorry to say this, Ganondorf, my dear, that he will settle your hash.
And you can't even hear what I say, because you never cared for me, and didn't bother to listen to me. That's right. I can help this boy, I can get him access to this castle, but you wont know. Because you don't care.
Chapter 1
The door opened wide as Ganondorf entered the chamber, his eyes flaming as they usually did, cape bellowing back, a sign of imprisonment for the just.
"Where is he then? Where is Sho?" he bellowed.
"He's just playing outside, but he wanted to see you. He wants to talk to you.." she lied, knowing that Sho was still a little wary of his father. She had planned well.
"Well, now's his lucky day" Ganondorf smiled, but not a friendly one, "I want to tell him what he'll be if his father's plan is successful. Not that it'll fail, of course..."
He pushed past her and into the gardens. She smiled.
"Not if I have something to do about it..." she added, as she draped her cloak over her shoulders, and made her way towards the entrance.
A Gerudo guard came up cautiously, trembling a little.
"Should I tell...Ganondorf where you're going?" she asked quietly, sensing that she was in one of her bad moods.
"Well, it doesn't take a queen to tell a lower order like you when to mind her own business! Now, out of my way!" She shouted. Sometimes there wasn't much difference between her and her husband.
She made her way to the stables, and as she reached her horses' paddock, she smiled slowly.
"Nah, he needs a rest. What I need is a decent one…"
Ganondorf always had to have the best, and his horses were of course no exception. A coal black steed, with eyes so dark it camouflaged with the colour of its hide, reflecting Ganondorf's anger and evil tendencies, was her optimum choice, as she made her way to the forest, unaware that Link had left ages ago.

"So, my boy, want to know what your father is up to, huh?" Ganondorf called from inside. Sho ran up, breathless, knowing his father's short temper.
"Well, as you know, the hero of time is predicted to arrive, and this guy has everything arranged. By the time he has enough of those medallions, I will already have the palace under my power. This is the moment that I've been anticipating, boy. A chance for all of us. Power is needed for everything in life. If you lack it from birth, then simply build it, or you will be nothing." He spread his arms wide.
"This fortress, my boy, my minions, that is the product. But far more is needed to get it all. Soon we shall take over, while the young fool will be drowned in my presence. He may have courage, my boy, but he has no power to back it. That's why fairy tales aren't true. Simple tales to fool the weak."
He turned and strode into his fortress, unaware of his wife's plans. Sho, however, was engulfed in a new feeling of pride for his father's actions, and wondered whether his mother would feel the same way as he did.
