"N-no, milady." The stranger said quietly. "Milady? I like it. Perhaps I should force future pawns to call me as such." The stranger looked up at Lordona, slightly confused. Pawns? Is she speaking of the holders?. "I know what you're wondering, I don't have to read your mind to know that. Your face tells me of your questioning."

Lordona crooked her head down and slightly smiled. She raised her head back up with a menacing grin and said, "I suppose I can tell you of the holders." The stranger looked up at the fallen Goddess, astonished. "Please, it is the main reason I have come into your presence."

"Really? I thought you came to annoy me." Lordona turned her back to the cave's entrance for a moment and thought. Where to start, where to start... The story of the holders was long indeed. It involved many trials, many hardships, and many falls all at the fault of the creator of the Triforce of Rage. The Goddess herself.

"It begins with a young girl, she is of the Sheikan blood and my blessing brings her many hardships in her home". The deity begins to cackle slightly. "Oh but, what enjoyable hardships they were to watch!" Her cackle grew into a menacing laughter that echoed throughout the cave. "Her pain and suffering was so great! I only wish I could record such a life of hatred!"

The stranger backed up a few inches, This woman is mad.

"Let me go on without your thoughts clouding my mind!" Lordona yelled angrily. "If you do this constantly I will stop telling you this story!" The figure quietly mumbled,

"I am quite sorry, milady."

"That's what I thought!"

"Finally, let me begin." Lordona took a deep breath and began describing the small Sheikah village of Kakariko in it's from nearly 533 years in the past. She also described a young girl of about eight, her name was Rulia. Her hair was long and beautiful, long pure white hair, she had the trademark read eyes of the Sheikah, wore a light blue scarf bearing the symbol of her tribe in white, light blue sleeves connected at the back, a dark blue sash, a tapestry baring the Sheikah eye, and traditional Sheikah leggings. Her skin was also pale, paler than most of her race.

Her personality was a little moody, but she was especially cheerful at times. She only had two friends, their names being Colin and Celia. Colin was a young boy a little older than Rulia and had light brown hair, red eyes, and his skin was slightly darker than Rulia's. Most of his outfit consisted of wearing white and he was quite skilled with a sword at his age. Some in the village would say that he would be a personal protector of the Royal Family if it weren't for his age. Celia was quite a bubbly character and was slightly younger than Rulia. She had brunette hair up in a side ponytail, red eyes, the darkest skin out of the three friends, and clothes mainly made up of the colors red and though Rulia would sometimes act distant towards these two, they all knew they were all friends.

The sun was shining, there was a warm breeze, and the village of Kakariko seemed to sing. If it wasn't for the screaming cuccos. Rulia was sitting in the graveyard, one of her favorite places to be. It was a place to think, a place to pay respects, and a place to meet friends. She and her acquaintances would meet in the graveyard on a daily basis. Rulia was counting clouds when she hear a voice yell out her name.

"Colin!" Rulia yelled while waving her right arm when she saw Colin standing at the entrance of the graveyard. "So, what are you up tp?" She asked while Colin walked towards her. "I think found something really weird." Colin said with a discontent expression. "What do you mean? What could be weird about the graveyard?" Colin turned around to Rulia with a serious look on his face. "I think, I think I found... I found." The young girl looked at her friend with a concerned look, What is it Colin? Let it out!

"I found this doll!" Colin yelled while throwing it up into the air and catching it. Rulia immediately recognized it as her doll and yelled, "Hey! That's mine, give it back!"

"Its yours?" Colin asked.

Rulia looked unhappy. Colin handed the small doll back to her and she snatched it out of his hand and concealed it in her own. "What's so special 'bout your doll anyway?" Colin said questioningly. "I got it from THE Princess Zelda!" Rulia said proudly, "You got a doll from the princess? But you've never been out of the village!" Rulia looked at the ground, "Well daddy said that Zelda gave it to him to give to me. For my fifth birthday." Her father often left home to be a guard in Castle Town. Due to his important job he often had contact with the royalty.

She raised her head again and said, "So it is from the Princess!" Colin folded his arms and looked to his left and said, "What's it even a doll of? Never seen anything like it. Hmph." Rulia actually studied her doll for the first time since she first received it, "Uh, I think mommy told me told me it was a fairy. Y'know, from the forest!" Rulia had never actually seen a fairy but knew that they were orb-like creatures with wings. They would float around and were quite abundant in the Kokiri Forest.

"I really want to go to the forest someday." Rulia said in a melancholic tone.

"I've heard bad stuff about that forest though! I can tell you when we start heading back to the village." Rulia looked a little annoyed but complied.

"I heard that if you stay there too long, you turn into a Stalfos!"

Rulia screamed and hugged Colin tightly, "I never said there were Stalfos around! Jeez! Get off me!" She released her grip and walked silently beside Colin with her head down. She was blushing too. "I also heard there are weird kids there! They all wear green and never grow up, or at least that's what I heard." Rulia suddenly no longer wanted to visit the forest and looked at her doll questioningly. Could you really come from such a strange place?

"But don't be sad, Rulia! There are scarier places than the forest!" Rulia looked up and at Colin, "T-there are...?" Colin looked at her too, he put his arms behind his head with a big grin and said, "You bet! I hear that the Gerudo race is nothing but a bunch of thieves that tear apart anyone who enters their desert uninvited!" She looked up at the sky and said, "Th-that's so, so crazy. I never want to leave Kakariko!"

Right at that moment Celia came running towards the two. "Heeeey! I've been looking for you guys!"
