Chapter One – The Heroes Return
A long time ago in a land called Hyrule, there was an era of peace not too long after the evil King Ganondorf was defeated by the hands of a Princess with the help of a young, seventeen year old boy who was destined for great things. Link had sapphire blue eyes and golden blonde hair, which he tucked away inside a green cap. He lived within a hidden forest, protected by the magic of the Deku tree scrub, with the eternally young Kokiri children.
He was relaxing by the glittering waters of Lake Hylia with his trusty horse Epona close by. He watched the fish leap out of the water and touch the light of the evening sun and the birds swooping down to try and catch them. He began to wonder what life had install for him next seeing as though he had just finished helping the people of Terminia save their land from disaster. Epona had been following a grassy path and was standing beside him. Link reached up and patted her neck while reaching for a carrot to feed to her. She happily took it and nudged him with her nose for more. Smiling, Link gladly kneeled down and searched his bag for another one.
Suddenly the sky blackened like it had once before while Ganondorf was in control of the land. Link stood up and looked at the sky clenching his teeth. Reaching for his weapon clouds came rolling in at a fast speed. The animals had sensed danger coming and had all gone back to their homes for safety. Link took a few paces sideways gripping his sword and shield looking quickly in all directions for signs of danger. A lightening bolt crashed into a clear patch of grass near Epona. She leaped up and franticly ran in fright straight into a portal that appeared in front of her. Link had registered at the last minute what was happening and rushed towards Epona to catch her before she fully disappeared into it. He couldn't loose her again, not after what happened in Terminia. He was a few seconds too slow, the last of Epona had vanished just as he got there. Link gathered his courage and went into the glowing portal after her.
