Final Draft: Kaebora's Memories
It was the 289th year of the calendar of the Hyrulean Reckoning, and Hyrule
was in trapped in a terrible civil war, which all began when the Gerudo
kingdom of the east and the Hyrulean kingdom of the west started fighting
over their ancient boundaries. Soon, it turned into a huge war as the
mythical kingdoms of magical creatures, the kingdoms of the Gorons and
Zoras, came to the aid of the aid of their allies. Kaebora Gaebora had
boarded himself inside a building near Lake Hylia. He had prophecized this.
He also prophecized it would get much worse. But he could not prevent it
from doing so. He was dying.
He remembered back ten or twenty years. The night he had prophecized it all.
Kaebora was sleeping, and he had a dream which had reoccurred by his count,
forty-eight times. Tonight was the forty-ninth night. The dream started out
when he saw a huge field which was his homeland, on fire. It affected every
thing in sight. Suddenly, storm clouds started to blow in from the west. At
first, storm clouds extinguished the fire, but then suddenly a huge lightning
bolt fell from the clouds and ripped the earth into pieces. The lightning
bolts continued to fall until the world was completely destroyed, Kaebora
then thought he could hear an evil sounding laugh. Kaebora woke up, and
quickly scribbled down his dream. He then carefully analyzed the dream,
checking various books and scrolls on the art of dream interpretation. The
conclusion he came to was sobering.
There would be a huge civil war in Hyrule. During it, a wicked man would come
from the west, who would be considered a major factor in causing the end of
the war. But, before long, he would seek the glorious power of the gods, and
his greed would tear apart Earth. The morning following, he came to the King
of Hyrule. Being as Kaebora Gaebora was a wise and powerful wizard, he was
easily granted a talk with the King.
"So... you speak of a civil war?" the King said.
"Far worse... someone would try to gain the highest power of the gods and
goddesses, and after that, the world would be destroyed," Kaebora replied,
soberly.
"Well... you have been right before... but I sincerely think you are wrong
now. Peace is strong here. If a war does occur, it will occur in thousands
of millenia. Your prophecy is obviously far off, if true. Now, Kaebora,"
changing the subject, "How about you tell me about that potion you told me
about that will make give off colorful sparks of light. I think that will be
amusing for the upcoming festival."
Kaebora sighed, both then, and in his hiding place during the time of the
war. Nobody had believed him. Well, that's not true. There was one of his
students at his acadamy...
"Sir, I have heard of your prophecy. Doom is it?" Rauru, a young student
of his asked curiously.
"Yes. But I do not expect you to believe me..." Kaebora sighed again.
"Surprisingly, I do. Sir, you are a very wise wizard, I don't believe you
could be mistaken. I will do anything, within reason, to try and stop the
doom. With your wisdom and my youth, well... we have quite good odds."
Kaebora was pleased. Rauru and a few of his other students built a temple to
protect an object which Kaebora believed to be the sacred object that the
evil one would gain. They also crafted a powerful sword, which was created
to destroy the evil one, if perhaps he gets through the temple. The world
seemed safe. But Kaebora discovered that fate was a tricky thing.
"King Gerud, of the Gerudos, the canyon is clearly our territory. I know you
wish it, after all, your land is not very good, but the sacred treaty states
that we own it," the King of Hyrule said at a meeting with powerful emotions
Being stirred up.
"No. It says that the border is the river. And that means that we get one
side of the canyon, and you get the other. Its not much, why don't you give
it to us?" King Gerud replied.
"Because, it is our land, and we are not willing to give it to a group of,
thieves."
"How dare you..." King Gerud was quite angry now, "Although thievery is
slightly above average levels in our nation, it is, we are, not a group of--"
He then stopped. He quickly said, "Good bye! I hope your army is prepared
for a fight." The war had, unofficially, started.
The war was tough. In the present, Kaebora looked around his house, he was
now even sicker than at the begining of this story. He was lying in his bed,
barely able to move, and he realized who the evil man was. Ganondorf.
King Gerud had died, and his heir was Ganondorf Mandrag. Ganondorf was an
open practitioner of dark magic, and instead of ineffectively discouraging
thievery like King Gerud had, he actually promoted it. The Gerudo army was
ten times bloodier under Ganondorf, and yet, Ganondorf constantly spoke of
peace. It was obvious. Ganondorf would be the one. But it was too late.
Kaebora coughed hard, and then thought about the most recent rumors he had
heard the days before me had locked himself in the house.
"Have you heard about the Golden Power?"
"What's that?"
"Something the goddesses who created the universe supposedly left behind.
They say it'll grant the wishes of anyone who can gain it."
"Wow. If I could have that, I'd wish for ten thousand rupees, no, ten
thousand, gold rupees, no wait, an entire kindom, in which the ground has
gold and rupees spraying out of every spare space, no wait,"
"Well, I'd ask for the power of a hundren men, but that's the beauty
of it. You can wish for whatever you want! I'll try to find it, and noone
will try to stop me. I'll pack my sword, shield, a few bombs, and I'll be
off."
"Um, no... I think I'll get it first!"
Kaebora thought. Golden Power, Ganondorf, it all fit together. People seemed
very violent to get the Triforce, another name for the power, and if regular
people were this violent, what if a well trained dark mage with a huge army
behind him seeked it? Kaebora layed himself down to think one last time.
A Hyrulean messanger broke into Kaebora Gaebora's house. He told him that the
war was over. He yelled that King Mundram and King Ganondorf had come to a
truce, and that the Goron and Zora had both allied with the Hyruleans before
that, but then he walked towards Kaebora Gaebora. He saw a cold body, laying
peacefully. He was dead.
Luckily, hope survived. The sword built to protect the world was still
waiting for its future owner, and could only be used by one virtuous enough
to use it right. Rauru was also gaurding the Temple, and some people said
that they found an owl living near the forest which had an odd resemblence
to Kaebora Gaebora, almost as if, he had been reincarnated.
