It was a beautiful day in Ordon. The sun shined at his brightest and there was no cloud in the sky to be spotted. As usual Link was busy, with the goats. Bringing them one by one in their shelter. Sweat was already on his forehead by the hard work and the sun. When all the goats where in the shelter he rubbed his hands against his forehead to remove the sweat.
'I'm going to change clothes' Link said as he walked past Fado. 'Sure, you are already done so take a rest. You don't have to work anymore today.' Link stopped to turn around to Fado and smiled. 'Thank you.'
Link arrived at his tree house The sun was shining at it what gave it a really "welcome home" feeling, though he was already at his home place the whole time: Ordon. He climbed the ladder which wasn't full of spiders for the first time which was weird they are usually making webs in the ladder, then Link had to remove them with a slingshot which he got from the shop owner Sera after he found her cat again. When he was up he opened his door and toke a step to be inside the house. He closed the door and went inside.
As he changed his clothes he putted his old clothes away. 'I'll clean that up later' he said as he trew the clothes in a corner. He stepped on a letter. He picked it up slowly as he didn't remember who's letter it was. He rolled it out and remembered it again. The letter from Ilia. They were in a fight and this letter was to make peace or something. "Ok sorry that I yelled at you for riding on Epona without permission, it's your horse of course. But still, can you ask me before riding on her? I hope you are okay with it now. Sincerely Ilia." Ilia was always worried about Epona. Link knew that and forgives her every time she would get angry for not asking or something. Link lay the letter on a table that was the nearest of him. He walked away and opened the door to go outside again.
The weather had changed. 'Huh?' Link stared at the clouds that slowly came closer to the center of Ordon. 'Better warn Ordon before a storm appears.' He jumped from the top he was standing on and walked into the center of Ordon. The residents were already aware and were getting inside. A woman was putting her wet washed clothes in a basket and walked in her home. Rusl one of the residents and one of the best friends of Link, which Link sometimes saw as a father or brother walked into Link. 'Ah, good you noticed. The weather changes quickly.' Rusl said it with a slight laugh. Link looked at him. 'Yeah, but this is very weird. It never changes that quickly.' He looked up in the sky again. Rusl frowned his face as he had remembered something again. 'Oh, Ilia is at the Ordon spring, can you say that she has to come to mayor Bo?' Link nodded. 'Will do.'
Link walked trough the tree's, he felt a weird and cool atmosphere. Something wasn't right here. It was getting darker when you got further in the forest. It was still morning so it shouldn't get darker but lighter. He got closer to the spring while the feeling, that horrible feeling was getting stronger. He was standing in the door opening and saw Ilia injured on the floor.
'Ilia!' He screamed as he run towards the weak girl. 'What's wrong, what happened?' Ilia glanced up to make eye contact. She whispered with a crack in her voice. 'Bad things, monsters, dark people, you need to go.' Link made a worried face. 'How go? I'm not going are you crazy?' Ilia widened her eyes which made Link very uncomfortable like something was standing behind him. 'Whats wrong Ilia?' He asked her. Ilia was shaking her head and her body while she gasped. 'Be-behind you.' Link turned his head slowly, his eyes fell on a dark creature not knowing what it was. He turned his whole body with his head and still looked at this monster-like person. He tried to protect Ilia as he sat before her covering her body. This creature had a large silver helmet with a lizard like face on it. He wore a robe like uniform with silver armor and dark red pieces of robe hanging out of the armor. He came closer to Link as he held his hand to Link.
'So, you are the one, the hero chosen by the goddesses.' He putted his arm next to him. There was a silence. Link made a clear vision of this person and looked concerned about what was going to happen. 'What do you mean?' Link breathes with a confident voice. 'You don't know? That makes this job easier.' Link stood up to watch in his helmet's eyes like it were the real eyes of this person. 'How do you mean job? Who are you anyways.' The creature started to walk around Link and stopped while he was behind him. Link turned around. 'I said who are you.' The creature started to bow for Link. 'Did your people never talked about me, I'm Zant king of the twili. Does that ring any bells for you?' Link started to think if he ever had heard about this race but it didn't come up in his mind. 'No, I never heard of you.' Link's eyes fell on Ilia who was still laying on the ground scared. His eyes went back to Zant. 'Well, doesn't matter then.' He saw that Link was staring at the girl. Zant walked to the girl and picked her up by her arm like she weight nothing. 'No! Get away from her!' Link screamed while he was running towards Ilia. His running stopped by a force that drove him back again. This force looked like it was coming from Zant. 'I want to make a deal with you. This girl will be save if you come with me, as I said you are the chosen one, I need you.' Link crawled back up again. 'Need me for what?'
Zant lifted Ilia higher which looked like it was hurting her. 'Let her go!' Link screamed louder as he was trying to call residents from Ordon. 'I'll. let. her. go.' Zant let Ilia slide through his hands and she fell on the floor. 'But.' He whispered as he walked near Link, locking both his arms behind his back and whispered to Link's ears. 'That means you are coming with me.' Slowly their feet were getting black while fading into small pieces and went up to the sky. Their feet were gone and slowly the rest of their body were coming after all the small pieces of darkness. 'Ilia! They will notice that we're gone for a long moment, they will come here before you know it.' Link shouted while the last pieces of his body faded in the air. Ilia nodded while she was trying to crawl back up. 'Ok' She said with the same crack in her voice.
