Epilogue
By Link
It's been years since that day. Tetra and I left on our journey to find a new home. Along the way, we had several adventures, too many to really name. Our biggest one, though, was where we got sucked into another dimension by a ghost ship. Yeah, you heard me, a ghost ship. Turns out, it was actually run by ghosts that worked for an even bigger ghost.
See, the adventure occurred in a land where the ocean was ruled by a whale named the Ocean King. He had a temple on an island called Mercay. However, the temple was cursed by the evil Phantom, Bellum. Oh, but I'm getting ahead of myself. I should start at the beginning.
See, we were sailing, and we heard about a ghost ship. We decided we'd check it out. When we found it, Tetra climbed on board and got turned to stone! I jumped on board to save her, but the boat began to move and I was knocked off. I woke on Mercay where I met a fairy named Ciela. We journeyed together for some time and finally made our way to the Temple of the Ocean King.
It was there we met a really annoying and selfish pirate named Linebeck. We had to save him from the Temple of the Ocean King's curse, and when we did, he acted all snotty. He blamed his failure on a sprained ankle, but I didn't buy it for one second. Turns out, he was a total coward.
So, Ciela and I made our way into the Temple of the Ocean King, but it quickly sapped the life out of us, so we had to escape before we died. That's one Oshus, an old man who lived on Mercay Island, gave us a magical object called the Phantom Hourglass. Using its power, as long as there was sand in it, we wouldn't be harmed by the temple's curse.
After that, Oshus sent us on a mission to rescue the three spirits. Interestingly enough, they were the spirits of Power, Wisdom, and Courage. Once we rescued them, Oshus revealed himself to be the Ocean King himself, then sent us on a quest to get a special sword called the Phantom Blade. Using its power, we were able to make it to the bottom of the Temple of the Ocean King and fight Bellum.
However, that's when things went terribly wrong! Bellum escaped the temple and took control of the Ghost Ship! We had to use Linebeck's ship to destroy the Ghost Ship by blowing it apart with the cannon. Unfortunately, it ended with both ships being destroyed. After that, Bellum possessed Linebeck, and I had to fight him! It was terrible! However, we did kill Bellum finally, and all was well again.
Linebeck got a free wish from the Ocean King, and much to our surprise, he wished for his boat back! I mean…he was crazy about treasure all his life, and when he gets the ability to wish for untold amounts of treasure, he wishes for his boat? He could have bought a boat with all the treasure he could have wished for! But, I suppose that was what really showed he had changed.
After that, Tetra, her crew, and I headed out once again. We found this strange land that was split into five realms: Fire, Ocean, Forest, Sand, and Snow. We met these creatures called Anouki there, and it turns out there were some resident Gorons there, too! However, that's where everything went terribly wrong.
We decided to settle in in this land, and the keepers of the land, the Lokomos, allowed us to take it over. But when we did, this creature called Malladus appeared and began destroying the land! We fought hard against him…but our power just wasn't enough to destroy him. So, the Lokomos used their power and sealed Malladus away beneath the ground.
They then forged chains that actually covered the land, and built a massive tower in the center of the land as a key to lock Malladus away. Those chains nowadays are called the Spirit Tracks, and they use them for this new invention they have called the train. It's really awesome! We can only hope that Malladus never gets free, though. If he does…I don't know what will happen…
Oh! I forgot something! Just before we found this land, which we call New Hyrule, Tetra and I got married. Yeah, I know, hard to believe, but I did get over Medli eventually, and Tetra…she came on pretty strongly. We have two kids now, one is a boy named William, the other one is a girl who we named Zelda. Zelda is currently the Queen of New Hyrule, since her mother passed on. William lives in Aboda Village, and though he protects New Hyrule, he's never wanted to be royalty.
Unfortunately, this is going to be my last entry into this book…You see…the curse the Goddesses of Hyrule put on Tetra and I was that we would only live to be sixty, then we'd pass on. Well, Tetra was a year older then me, and she passed almost a year ago. I'm due to drop dead any day now. So, I guess, I'll leave this for my kids to read, and maybe even their kids.
Oh! I forgot! We did get everyone off the Great Sea into New Hyrule, even my sister. The only one that didn't make it was Grandma…but…she was old already. I'm not surprised she passed before we found New Hyrule. Aryll says she passed away only a few months after we left. I kind of wish I had stayed now, so that I could have been there. Not much I can do about that I suppose. Well, I guess that's all. Farewell.
