Title : Sages Of Hyrule

Author: Lunitari

Category: Drama

Rating: PG-13

Summary: This is basically a re-telling of "Ocarina Of Time", but in the point of view of the key females of Hyrule. A lot of details in the game concerned Link, so this fanfic will elaborate more on the other characters.

Disclaimer: Hyrule and all the characters and places associated with it as well as the story of "Ocarina Of Time" belong to the company Nintendo. No money is being made and no infringement is intended.

Author's Notes: In medival times the king often adresses himself as a third person, so it might be a bit strange to those unfamiliar with the medival period. Reviews would greatly be appreciated since this is only a rough draft. The final copy will be posted on my website i1ca.

Chapter One: The musings of a Gerudo

A middle-aged woman stood alone on the roof of the desert fortress watching the sunset. The light breeze played with her red haired poney-tail, but wasn't enough to cool her down from the desert heat. Only once the darkness of the night came the temperature would go down. Not that she really minded, having lived in the desert all her life.

She was named Nabouru and had been the leader of the tribe once.However that was a long time ago, or so it seemed. That had been before the male was born. Now she was second in command. At first she hadn't minded at all, she was actually happy to finally enjoy life without having to worry about the survival of the tribe. But as the male grew up she realized that enjoying life would have to wait. He had made sevral mistakes in the past leaving her to do the patch up work. She had offered him to guide him as a sensai, but he had refused preffering the councils of his mother and aunt. With the years she came to hate him.

He went against every code of the Gerudo tribe, and had committed murder on several occassions. Just because he was the leader and the lone male he believed he could do everything he wanted and everyone should obey him without questions. She thought of him as having an evil personality and an ambition to match it.

He certainly didn't make his intentions a secret. Over a year ago he had announced that he was going to find the legendary Triforce and make Hyrule his. Unfortunately being regarded as outcasts by the rest of the kingdom, the idea had pleased the rest of the tribe. To them this was an opportunity to finally show those Hylians what they were capable of. Nabouru strongly opposed to the idea but the majority ruled.

Finding the Triforce, what an absurd idea. It was just a story, a myth. She recalled that speech Ganondorf had made the night before about needing the Spiritual Stones to open the Door Of Time in the old temple of Hyrule Town. Like that door really led to the Sacred Realm! That was just a children's tale, thought Nabouru. Looking down below she suddenly noticed Ganondorf mounting his black war horse. He was in armour and so was his horse. Nabouru snickered. Was he going to scare the fabled Kokiri kids into giving him the Spiritual Stone of the Forest? Or did he plan to burn down that tree, what was it called again? Nabouru searched her memory, ah yes the Deku Tree.

Let him waste his time in trying to find things that didn't exist, meanwhile there would be peace in Gerudo Valley and she would be in command again. She jumped down onto the balcony with ease and went back inside her room. She sat down at her vanity table and brushed her long red hair. Suddenly the thought came to her, what if he was right? What if there was really a Triforce? What if he did find it? Nabouru shuddered preferring to dismiss that thought for Hyrule's sake.
