Link's Story

Disclaimer: I own nothing.

Link grew up as an orphan in Ordon village. His parents abandoned him as a child. A kind rancher took him in and taught him how to ride a horse, herd sheep and goats, and how to milk a cow.

Growing up Link dreamt of adventure and knights in shining armour, it didn't surprise anyone when he asked the village's only swordsmen, Rusl, to teach him swordplay.

Nor did it surprise anyone when he left to become a soldier on his sixteenth birthday. Link left his village with determination and confidence.

His confidence was not misguided. At the training academy for soldiers, Link was at the top of his class.

The academy is a tough place. Many fail to become soldiers and are sent home or killed in training. Those who do not fail become soldiers. Quitting is not an option.

The final test of the academy is a battle between a trainee and a soldier. When it came time for Link's class to take the test only nine of the twenty-four that began were left.

As Link was preparing for his test he overheard the soldiers talking about how they only cared about the money they made not the royal family, or the people or anything.

It was then that Link realised that the soldiers were corrupt and that he did not want to be one so he ran away.

He first went to Kakariko village. He used the Rupees he had left to get a room at the Inn and stayed there for a few weeks.

Link didn't like Kakariko much. The inn was run down, it was always windy, the dirt got in his eyes and it was too small.

Despite all of this the people were very nice. The priest's daughter Luda brought him lunch each day and helped take care of Epona. But when it boiled down to it Kakariko wasn't the place for Link.

Next he went to the gorons on Death Mountain. They were having problems with their mines. They were infested with monsters.

Link helped them get rid of the monsters, earning their complete respect in the process. Unfortunately living with the gorons didn't work.

The next place he tried was Lake Hylia, but there were next to no people and frankly there was too much water.

So he went to Zora's domain next. Their Lakebed Temple was also infested with monsters and, again, he helped them earning their respect as well.

But Zora's Domain didn't work either.

Next he tried Gerudo Desert. That obviously didn't work. But while he was in the Desert he found a baby girl wrapped in a blanked lying in the sand. There was a note pined to the front of the blanket saying that the girl had been abandoned.

The girl had a small fringe of red hair atop her small head and mocha coloured skin. The girl couldn't have been more than a month old.

Link knew that the chances of anyone else finding her were slim to none so he took her with him and raised her as his daughter. He named her Naja.

Finally Link decided to build a house for Naja and him in Hyrule Field near Kakariko village.

He lived there happily with Naja for five years. For those five years he helped people by defeating monsters that threatened them and helping to heal those who were hurt.

Naja grew to be a spirited five-year-old. Her red hair now reached her waist and she always wore it in a ponytail. She was already tough and slightly outspoken. She was also a bit mature for her age.

Link and Naja's lives changed drastically one day when they found a young blond women running for her life from a king Bulblin & Lord Bullbo.
