After the Celebration (which was wonderful to say in the least) Link wandered around the castle which, once apon a time he had had to sneak around gaurds to get around, now they came and patted him on the back, or asked him for training lessons, it was quite a bit to get used to.

As Link continued to wander around in his nostalgia, The ground began to rumble and shake.

"whats going on?" he yelled to the nearby guards

they all laughedd at him and told him to puttdown his weapons, for they said it was only Sir Orpheus in the training grounds.

"Sir Orpheus?"

" yes even though he is but a child he excels greatly in the magic arts. it sounds like hes practising with fire now.."

Orpheus squinted as the heat of his spell maneaged to temporarily blind him for a moment. As the flash dissipitated he noticed there was an odd young boy standing on the other side of his field. Smirking he decided to sendd a small burst of wind ,just enough to knock the curious greenclad boy on his way, when he say the boys sword begin to glow blue, then orange , then a frightingly red color before the boy leapt at a target with a mighty yell and disintigrated the large metal manikin!

Imposible! thoguht Orpheus its takes one of my strongest firebals to disintigrate a metal manikin! who is this kid?

Link wiped some sweat from his brow, how good it felt to loosen up some of his muscles!Link turned at looked at the impressive feats done by orpheus; Telekinesis, Elemantincy, Transmutation... small wonder he was knighted at age 9... Link then made up his mind to meet this knight in battle in the sparring pit.

orpheus looked up and saw the boy point to the sparring ring.. ah hah... trying to see who best eh? well your gonna be in for a big surprise! orpheus walked over towards the ring and put down his Staff of Knowledge,which allowed him to learrn more about his opponent, there would be time for that the Referee blew his whistle he shot out 3 spells, Flaming Lance, Freezing Sword,and Shocking Sheild. and saw something that made him set his jaw agape...

Link dashed for ward and dodged the fire and ice spells while readying a small charge in his sword which broke the lightning sheild surrounding the mage, and put the sword against orpheus's neck.

"i win" Link said simply

Inconcivable! how couldi lose? orpheus thought to himself no, no, nononoNONO! i have not come thins far just to be beatin by this boy!

Power surging through him Orpheus pushed out the biggest gale he had ever made and attempted to push the Sword toting elf away.

Sighing Link pointed downward.

Following his gaze Orpheus said "Metal Shoes?" before getting a swift pop on the nose thus losing the match.

When Orpheus woke up he saw The strange Elf standing over him and helping him up. "h-how?"

"heh i guess it comes from defeating so many other mages" the boy said

" who are you?" Orpheus asked still in a stupdor from being nock out.

"my name is Link, The Hero Of Time!" Link said proudly.
