Prologue
In the land of Hyrule, there echoes a Legend. A legend held dearly by the royal family that tells of a boy. A boy who, after battling evil and saving Hyrule, crept away from the land that had made him a legend. Done with the battles he once waged across time, he embarked on a journey. A secret and personal journey. A journey in search of a beloved and invaluable friend. A friend with whom he parted ways when he finally fulfilled his heroic destiny and took his place among legends.
A lean man walked silently through the woods. Each step cracked against the dried, autumn leaves on the ground. He muttered to himself in mumbles barely heard over the leaves. His purple robes had a very regal appeal.
But he does not appear to be royal.
A large pack, that seemed to be twice this mans size was carried on his back. Strapped around the sides of the bags were masks. Each one had its own unique appeal to them.
The red-headed man continued to walk, all the while he muttered words, "Finally", and "After looking for so long".
In the man's hands was a mask. It was nothing unusual for this man. The mask had a very ominous vibe to it. Protruding from the sides of the mask were large spikes, The mask was violet and red, with accented lines of black, white and yellow. The shape of the mask was in a heart. Finally, there were two large, round eyes that looked to glow in the dark woods.
"To have found it after so long," The man muttered, rubbing his sleeve on the mask.
There was no response in the woods where the trees rose endlessly into the sky. It was obviously that the man was unaware of his surroundings when he stubbed his little foot on the root of one of the trees.
In his startlement and tumbling trip, the mask flew out of his hands and tumbled soundlessly against the ground.
"No! My Mask! My Mask!" He scurried closer to the mask. His fingers caressing the mask. His breathing was in panic as he inspected the mask. Nothing seemed damaged. His breathing calmed. "You are a tricky thing, aren't you?" He chuckled to himself. He lifted the mask into the sky, looking upon it with a wide grin. "Soon, you will show your potential,"
A crooked smile crept on the man's face as he brought his bag around and slid the mask inside carefully. He shuffled his bag back onto his back and continued walking. He begun humming a strange tune as he walked.
Soon.
But it is too soon.
