Summoner's Melody
I do not own Link or the Legend of Zelda, or League of Legends. They are owned by Nintendo and Riot Games respectively.
In the middle of the afternoon, Link worked vigorously on the goat ranch. Wiping the sweat from his brow, he grazed upon his work not even half way done. To him it was great to finally be home, it quickly became apparent how much work this was
"I guess I forgot how much hard work this was." He groaned, making all the goats look at him.
"Well, guess I should get back to work." Link mumbled, just as he was just about the start a heavenly noise reached his ears, making them perk.
"Music?" As he listened, he could almost hear words in the voiceless song.
"The Spring. Link, only you can hear my voice. Come to me my Summoner." The notes seemed to whisper as they reached his ears. Then the music stopped altogether.
Upon hearing this he instantly filched, hoping this would not turn into another journey. Although he did manage to slay Ganondorf and save Zelda, it was way to soon to start another, hopefully that day will never come.
Turning he called, "Hey Fado! Do you mind if I go to the spring?" Said man came walking out of the staples.
Fado smiled, "Sure, just be back before sunset."
Link nodded and walked through the village, but stopped at his house to pick up the Master Sword and shield. Link also stopped to change into his green tunic; the same he wore during his journey, he also pondered whether or not to take Epona, but decided against it.
Later
Link was finally coming upon the spring, beginning very suspicious of this entire thing, he scanned his entire surroundings for any danger. Finally, he started to relax...until the music started to play again, only a lot louder and more melodic than before.
"Finally. Yes, come closer Summoner." Sang the notes again. At first they were a whisper not they were an echo.
As he neared the spring, he grew tense with each step closer, he had every right to. Link narrowed his eyes at the entrance of the springs and grip his sword tightly ready fight if. Every time the voice spoke it seemed to relax him, but his doubts quickly resonated when the song stopped.
"Well, its now or never." Link said to himself, and in a quick action he barreled into the spring, sword drawn, shield held protectively against his body only to see a lone figure standing in the spring.
Said figure was a female, young maybe his age or older. She was wearing a long, elegant blue dress which exposed her neck , shoulders and a fair amount of her cleavage. The women herself was short, and had long blue pigtails that ended in gold tips, golden eyes, and pale skin with a small smile gracing her face.
Confused, Link raised an eyebrow at her, "Were you the one calling me here?"
She said nothing, nodding yes.
"Who are you?" He asked.
This made her smile disappear, and turn away from him. Thinking he insulted her, he sputtering apologies, which seemed to have no effect.
"My name is Sona,the Maven of Strings." Link's eyes widen when he heard this, the voice...she was the voice he was hearing, the angelic melody being played in his head.
Sona then turned around, to reveal a floating instrument in front of her. This instrument was a long and board-like with three strings, strange markings and wing like details on the ends of it. Link for one, was shocked he hadn't seen any instrument like that before.
"Sona...can you not speak? Is that way I only hear you when you play?" He asked, which he immediately regretted, her face dropped and her head lowered, and plucked a string.
"Yes, I was born with the inability to talk, or make any noise what so ever." The note carried.
Link's expression softened before sighing, "I-I'm sorry I didn't know."
"Its okay. The goddess in your word are very kind, they allowed me to communicate through my etwahl; the instrument you see here." She explained offering a smile.
Link could help but smile, she was right the goddess were a kind; kind enough to help him on his journey. But his face faulted when he remembered something, a word 'Summoner'.
"You mentioned the word summoner. Am I your summoner?"
Sona looked shocked, Link could tell by her face she was waiting to explain this. If she wasn't mute she likely would have sighed right there.
"Yes, you are my summoner." Came her answer.
"How?" He questioned.
"By destroying the evil that plagued this world." She replied.
"Ganon? How exactly did that summon you?" He questioned.
She tapped her chin before answering, "The summoners of our dimension have been watching other dimensions. For years they observed those worthy of becoming summoners themselves, such as you. Your nearly indomitable courage summoned me here the first time on accident. This time with true purpose." She explained.
Nodding at this answer, he smiled a bit. "But that doesn't explain why you are here."
She rolled her eyes, "I was actually sent by those summoners to inspect your ability. Throughout your entire journey I was watching your progress, and found you to be worthy. They sent me here to because I was familiar with you, that and because Ahri was their other choice."
Link raised an eyebrow, Sona just started at him rather dryly, "Who is Ahri?"
"Ahri is technically a Kitsune or fox spirit normally. However, she was...born the same way, or even close in the matter. She was a fox who became a human through some sort of magic...at least that is what Vayne said."
Link shrugged, "Why didn't they send her?"
Sona groaned, "Because they wanted you to join under your own power, not from being charmed. No one as ever resisted her charms.
Deciding not to ask any more questions, he nodded. "Alright, I'll become a summoner, on two conditions." Gaining her attention, "One, get to meet everyone I can summon. And two you will be my tutor in this Summoning business." He chided.
She nodded beofore turning to wave goodbye and just vanishing from sight.
Link sighed and looked at the sky, to see the sun was going down. He turned and started to make to his way back to the village to finish his work.
Meanwhile
A orb showed the encounter that just happened, sitting with a chair just a few feet way was a masked man who smiled with a sinister gleam.
"Perfect. Now you will be ready...hero." The man chuckled, "I think a old reunion is in order."
The man's chuckling soon turned into hyserical laughter.
"I can't wait to see how this turns out. Link you are in a world of trouble. But do not worry you have an Guardian Angel watching your back. Well a Guardian Reaper."
The man just seemed to disappear.
The etwhal is the name of Sona's instrument
