Hi Everyone! I'm back again for some time shifting! Well, that's not exactly my department, its Aden's. Or, is it both of ours? Could we just be the same person with different faces? Alright, I'll stop with the riddle speak. So what I want to talk about today is a common debate for Zelda players, 2D or 3D Zelda? Story or gameplay? To me, I always like a nice, gripping story when playing a game. But I don't like people bashing each other's heads in to see who is right. I won't explain it because a person called Gaijin Goomba did it better. Go to his channel and check out his 2D vs. 3D Zelda video. It got lots of praise and it really helped put out some of the flames of this rage debate. Now let's stop the blabbing and get to the story!

Chapter 2; Elements of the Past

Great Fairy's POV

I listened to Aden's explanation about his dream. He certainly was an interesting human, he made me very curious when he talked about it, especially the part with the middle Triforce piece. For all I have learned, I always thought there was only three pieces of the Triforce, Power Wisdom and Courage. But when he said that the "Mysterious Voice" called him "Bearer of Magic," it really got me thinking.

Aden certainly was interesting though, but his clothing really made him stand out. Ever since my fairies and I found him two days ago, I have tried to find out what kind of race wears those kinds of clothing. But from everything I could find in my knowledge, nothing had come up about those kinds of garments. Blue leggings that went down to his ankles that were made of some unknown cloth, and a shirt that had strange symbols on them. They certainly weren't any kinds of Hylean me or my fairies know, so what are they?

So I listened to Aden talk about his dream from beginning to end. When he finished, it looked like he was confused as well. I was too, with the talk of "him", "bringing him into all of this", and the dark hand. But from what I know, a dream like that can only mean one thing. This person was very important, and something evil was on its way. But that only comes from the bearers of Wisdom and Courage, never from Power.

I decided to break the silence by asking him a question.

"So are you sure that you cannot remember anything before your dream?" I asked. I knew the answer already, but I wanted to know if during his explanation he remembered anything.

Aden shook his head, then said, "I said before, the only things I can remember right now are the things from my dream." So nothing came up, that is unfortunate. I did have more questions, so I decided to further the conversation.

"Aden, what exactly does the symbols on your shirt say?" I asked. Aden looked at me, an even more confused look on his face. "You can't read this Great Fairy? But this is just plain English." He said. Now I was the one who was confused. "Um, what exactly is en-glash?" I said.

"Um, English is what we are speaking right now. How do you not know what it is?" Aden asked.

"Aden, you and I are speaking Hylean right now, I do not know of the 'English' Language." I said. Aden looked at me like I was crazy, what was he saying about this "English"?

"Huh, I don't know what is going on right now. Maybe English is the same as Hylean?" he said. I shook my head to answer his question.

"Aden, I have knowledge on many things, I have never heard of this 'English' you speak of. Maybe it is the way you read wherever you come from?" I said. Aden then reached back and scratched his head, an obvious sign of confusion.

"Yeah, it probably is, but I still don't remember. Either way, my shirt says, 'Keep Calm and Have Courage.' Above it is, well, I don't know." He said, as he was pulling his shirt out more so I could see it. I was a bit shocked when he said he didn't know what the symbol was. What he was pointing at was the symbol of the Triforce, a power left by the golden goddesses themselves, how did he not know of it?

I decided to let him know. "Aden, that symbol is called the Triforce. If I recall, you also said that the symbol was in your dream." Aden then looked down to have another look at the Triforce. "'Triforce' huh? It sounds familiar, but I can't put my finger on it. Can you explain it please?" he said.

I nodded. "I shall. You see, (For effect, play the Ocarina of Time song "Legend of Hyrule" In your head or put it on right now. Just to settle the mood.) long long ago, before the first Hylean was born, three goddesses came down to this planet and used their powers to form it. The goddess of Power, Din, used her powers to form the land. From the towering Death Mountain to the low lying Lake Hylia. The goddess of wisdom, Nayru, created the magic and the natural law of the world. And the goddess of Courage, Farore, created lifeforms to uphold said laws.

"After building the world of Hyrule, they left to the heavens. But not before leaving a piece of their power. That power being the Triforce. Each piece represents each goddess. The top piece is the Triforce of Power, which is from Din. The bottom left piece is the Triforce of Wisdom, which is from Nayru. Lastly, the bottom right piece is the Triforce of Courage, which was left by Farore. If a mortal was to wield all three pieces, then they shall get their greatest desire.

"The Triforce however, cannot distinguish between good and evil hearts. If the person's heart is pure, then his good wish would become true. If a person with an evil heart touches it, then his evil wishes would be granted. The Triforce is the cause of countless wars against good and evil. But whenever that happens, a hero clad in green comes up to save his homeland from evil. And that person, is the bearer of the Triforce of Courage.

(You can stop listening to "Legend of Hyrule" now)

"The most recent war for the Triforce was a mere two years ago, and that war was dubbed "The Twilight Invasion." The hero of the war was named Link, and he gained help from myself. I do not know what happened to Link after that, but I hope that he lived a peaceful life." Oh my, I must have gone too much into detail again.

Aden then looked at me in the eyes. "But there is something I still don't get. If the three goddesses created each part of the Triforce, then who made the middle piece?" he asked. "That is far beyond my knowledge Aden. I do not know who the other goddess could be, but my guess would be the white goddess Hylia, the one who watched over the Triforce herself."

Aden nodded his head. "Thank you Great Fairy, I understand now. At least, I think so." I then gave another curious look to Aden. "Oh? What else do you want to know?" I said.

Aden looked to the back of his left hand, which bared the symbol of the Triforce. "As much as I can remember, I don't think I can even do a simple magic trick. So, why do I have this new 'Triforce of Magic'?" Aden was beyond confused now. Where he comes from, magic must not exist. But, I guess now is a good time to try.

"You must not have found your current abilities right now. If you do have this new Triforce Piece, then now is a good time to try. Try to focus your energy, and releasing it through your hands." I said, trying to explain to Aden. He then nodded and closed his eyes. He took a long, deep breath and cupped his hands outwards. For a couple seconds, nothing happened.

Then, I saw a spark come from his hands. A dark shadowy orb then formed in his hands. The longer he closed his eyes, the bigger the orb grew. After about five seconds, he opened his eyes and saw the orb. He then gasped and his eyes widened. "Did I…" he was so shocked that he didn't even finish his sentence. He then looked over to me, and I simply smiled.

"Do you see now?" I said. "You had these powers all along Aden." He looked back to the orb, which was now the size of half his body. He then stood up and focused on a spot to the left of me. He then closed his eyes once more and brought the orb closer to him. Then, with a "Hmph", he shot the orb outwards. When the orb hit the ground, it became transparent. What we saw inside the orb, shocked us both.

Inside the orb, was a gray wolf with a strange imp sitting on its back. The wolf was in a battle stance, like it was about to attack something. We just realized that the wolf and the imp were in a freeze frame inside the orb. The wolf was mostly black and grey, with the exception of some white spots on his tail and legs. The wolf had light blue eyes, and on its leg was a broken shackle.

The imp was another story. She had fiery blonde hair, that was tied together by a strange grey stone. The imp's eyes was red and yellow, but only her right eye was showing. Because on her head, was a head piece that covered her left eye and most of her hair. It had strange markings on it, and had two short spikes on top. Her body was made of some type of silk, having markings on her arms and legs that glowed a light green. And her body was mostly colored light grey and black.

Aden may not know of these two, but I do. These were the two that helped stopping the Twilight invasion. The wolf was Link, the hero in another form. The imp was named Midna, and she was the Twilight Princess.

After about ten seconds, the orb disappeared and so did the Link and Midna memory. Aden stood there, shocked at what he just did. He then looked over to me, pointing at where the orb once stood. "Did I, how did I do that?" he said, looking more surprised than I did. I then said, "You had it in you all along Aden. And I think I just found out what a part of your dream meant." I said.

"The imp that was riding on the Wolf's back, her name was Midna. She started out as Link's master, if you can believe it. But after a while, they became close friends. Midna was a Twili, a being from the Twilight Realm. She was the realm's princess, but she had a curse. She eventually regained her true form, but returned to the Twilight Realm and breaking the only connection to this world.

"If the voice in your dream said that you must 'Seek out a friend from another realm,' then there is one place you must go. The Twilight Realm. There, you will find your ally, and she will help you." I said to Aden.

"But how will I know just who my ally is? If I can barely remember my name, then how will I remember someone from the Twilight Realm?" he said, starting to look a little agitated.

"It is simple Aden, your partner will recognize you. But you will not recognize your partner. Now, with your powers, you must find out what do on your own." I said.

Aden then looked at me, a little upset. "What? You can't go with me?" he said. My expression turned sorrowful, and I replied, "Aden, I cannot leave this cave. The gods will not let me, they never will. I stay in here until another fairy takes my place, then I pass on."

Aden then looked depressed also. "I-I'm sorry Great Fairy." I tried to hide my depression from him with a smile. "It is fine Aden, I only wish you a safe journey. But even though I cannot go with you, I can still give you this." I then closed my eyes, and focused magic into my hands. I could hear a gasp from Aden and I could see a bright light through my eyelids. After I felt a weight in my hands, I opened them back up.

In my hand was a basket full of supplies. I then stood up and gave it to Aden. "These are supplies that you will need for your journey. Food, water, rupees, and a cloak for any harsh weather. I wish you the best of luck on your journey." After taking the basket and looking inside, he closed it and kneeled down. "Thank you, Great Fairy. For these supplies, and your kindness."

I giggled, and said "You are welcome Aden, I shall now teleport you to the entrance of the cave, I wish you safe travels, may the goddesses protect you." I then focused my energy once more, and teleported Aden out of the cave. When I opened my eyes, he was gone. I hoped that he would be okay in his travels.
