Part 1: A New Kind Of Courage

Prologue: The Legend Of The Triforce

There is a Legend, the Deku Tree had once said. A Legend that carried on the wind's breath, whispering to those of many races, dating back to before the very essence of time. It had been passed down generation to generation throughout all of Hyrule, even passed the ears of other nations. It was a Legend that held great power and secrets, a tale that would soon be forgotten once the the new age would turn.

Long ago, before the world took form, the three golden goddesses descended from the heavens. With their great power, they transformed the chaos that was the world into what is now known as Hyrule. With each one of their sacred powers, they brought forth the waters, mountains, and forests. Then, their task finished, they departed to the heavens, leaving behind a golden triangle of the three elements fused.

'In the hands of good, the sacred triangle will bring fortune to the land. But in the hands of an evil heart, Hyrule, along with the entire world, will fall into darkness.'

Heeding the Legend, the Hylians built the Temple of Time to seal the sacred power inside. But it wasn't enough to suppress enemies of all kinds. In the First Age, the Hylians experienced a time of warfare and evil. After managing to defend themselves from many different nations and evils that trespassed on their boundaries, an evil man from the deserts had wreaked havoc on the all those of Hyrule. Distraught with helplessness, the people could do nothing but appeal to the gods. In their hour of perish, a strange boy garbed in green attire emerged from the forbidden forest, and sought out all the evil of the world. In one day, Hyrule fell into peace once more.

The Legend of this strange boy carried on the wind's breath, reaching to all Hylians in Hyrule. In due time, it became accustomed to clothe young boys in green when they came of age to remember how Hyrule once lost all hope before their young hero came to save them. For a time, Hyrule was blessed with peace and tranquility.

But nobody ever remembered the young boy's name that had saved them, save for those of the Royal Family, and because of this, he was rejected from his home. Everything had changed in his time period from all the many different times of traveling between past and future, and most of the people he had come to known on his adventure no longer existed in his time period. However, he discovered that one friend remained to know of his identity, and he set out on a personal quest in search of this invaluable friend, leaving Hyrule vulnerable for many more evil forces yet to come.

Author's Note: I am aware that most LoZ fans know the intro. already, but I decided to put it out there, anyway. Well, this is my second fanfic right next to the one my sister and I created, and this one is kinda serious with some grim humor and other humor in it. It will most likely start out boring, but I really hope everyone can come to enjoy it. Anyway, if there is anything you want to point out, please do, and please don't comment too harshly. I know most of the stuff is inaccurate, and yes, I did make-up some of it, but please don't burn me because of that. Aside from that, please enjoy! ~T-Lea.
