Volume 1
The return
It was another hot day in hyrule, if it were not for the slight breeze and the shadow that the hyrulian border gate casted, the lone guard feared he might have pass out
"why do I have guard duty? why am I the only one on guard duty!?" the guard thought to himself, he could be out there with his comrades, fighting the Gerudo forces, well yes it was true that only a few years ago Ganondorf had been executed, but his forces somehow still managed to keep the fight going to this day!
The guard sighed as he thought to himself "what am I even doing here? no one's left or entered hyrule in years, they probably just sent me here to get rid of me..."
but then, as if fate was laughing at him, a shadow with the sun at its back, could be seen approaching the gate from outside of hyrule
"!?!?!" both shocked and filled with joy that he finally had something to do, the guard took out his telescope and tried to see just who was apptoaching
upon closer inspection, the first thing he could see was that the stranger was riding on a big light brown horse with a beautiful white mane and feathering, the horse appeared to be carrying several pieces of equipment
luckily however, the rider came in to appearance shortly after the horse as well, from what the guard could see, he had bright blond hair and five o'clock shadow, he also had...an eyepatch on his right eye? he appeared to be wearing a light gray poncho, most likely to protect himself from the elements, he also saw what appeared to be the scabbard of a sword. Upon seing the armored boots and gauntlets he also wore, the guard assumed he was some kind of traveling knight
By the time the guard was done observing him, the stranger was only a few meters away, shocked by how close he suddenly was, the guard quickly grabed his spear and yelled
"Halt! Who goes there!? What business do you have here outsider!?"
they didn't respond at all
"I said halt!" Despite the guard's command, the rider did not stop, however the man suddenly jumped off the horse, when he did so however, the horse fell to its side
The guard didn't quite understand what was going on, so he pointed his spear at the stranger who continued to walk towards him
"Take one more step and I'll!...huh?"
before he could finish his sentence, the stranger fell forward on the ground, upon closer inspection, the guard realized that the man and his horse were both dirty, covered in bruises, and appeared to be extremely exausted, infact once he observed them closer he found it a miracle they could could even ride at all
"well...I suppose I'll have to bring them in before they die..."
meanwhile, in the great castle of hyrule
Zelda sat on her new throne, it was still pretty recent for her that her father died and everyone suddenly started calling her queen even though she hadn't married, while its true that she would be lying if she didn't enjoy the perks she lacked even as a princess, and she fully knew it was the right decision to become queen, she honestly missed her days as a simple princess, she had so much free time and could still enjoy life independently, now she was constantly busy trying to organize the soldiers for the war and whenever she actually had free time and wanted to do something, she had to have atleast four royal guards with her at all times it was honestly beginning to frustrate her
"ugh...im so bored...I could be meeting new people in castle town or shopping or even gardening...but instead im stuck here..." zelda thought as she continued to listen to countless politicians in the throne room argue over the smallest and irrelevant matters as if they were the world
when suddenly a guard bursted the doors open and ran inside
"your majesty! your majesty!" yelled the guard
when he finally arrived he was covered in sweat and was gasping for air
zelda observed him more closely than said
"wait...I think I know you...your the castle town gate guard...yes?...did you run all the way from castle town to here?"
"yes your majesty...I have some news that would greatly interest you..." said the guard "we recently found a stranger entering hyrule...he's currently unconscious from exaustion...he was carrying...this..." the guard then pulled out the ocarina of time
