Freedom!

Words cannot express the feeling in the Castle Town air this morning. After a one long, grueling month of the oppressive Ganondorf the Dark Lord and Zant, King of the Twili, we are finally free, my fellow countrymen!
Citizens noticed an ominous yellow barrier surrounding the beloved castle a couple days ago, but it wasn't until yesterday that something changed.
"It was like a huge, black octorock! Only, it could climb and seemed to glow," says Fadra, 31. Many other people had claimed to see an enormous, dark-colored monster climbing up the castle's barrier, though the accounts differed from each interviewee.
What happened after that, however, was indisputable. The monster destroyed the barrier, and disappeared. A guard has claimed he saw a small figure fall after the beast vanished, but he was likely intoxicated, as our field reporter noted the number of empty glasses beside him.
Actvity ceased for around three hours while citizens anxiously watched the castle for signs of disturbance. Then, it happened.
A gigantic roar shook the air and the ground rumbled as Hyrule Castle began to glow. Suddenly, with a huge flash and burst of sound, the Royal Castle disintegrated. Townspeople screamed and fled for their homes, I myself among them.
We have only recently learned of the defeat of the Dark King, as he has been named, but within hours Castle Town has sprung to life. Music blared in the streets as people danced, bars were giving free drinks, decorations were flung, and traditional songs were sung. The festivities continued through the night and into the morning, where many of us dragged back to our homes to rest.
Next week, we have a special feature waiting for all you faithful readers- an interview with the supposed Hero of Light himself! Until next time, may the Goddesses smile upon you.
