"Where are we?" Red asked. They were on an unfamiliar bridge hanging over a wide chasm.
"I don't know," Green answered, "This place doesn't look like anything on my map."
"I think we're back in time," Vio spoke up, "Zelda plucked a few strings on that harp, right? It must have sent us here, though I don't know where or when we are."
"How will we get back?" Green asked. Vio sighed. He didn't have a clue.
"I don't know."
"Well, we aren't going to get anywhere standing here!" Red piped up cheerfully, "I say we head that way!" He pointed down the bridge towards a well-trodden path.
"I say we go that way," Blue pointed in the opposite direction.
"I don't know," Green pondered, "I think Red's way would be best. It looks the most populated."
"You don't know that!" Blue pointed out, hefting his hammer.
"Wait, how about a compromise!" Vio interrupted, knowing what was coming. He had no wish to be hit with the hammer again, "How about we try Red's path for a bit, and if we don't see anything promising, we try the other way."
Blue gave his purple counterpart a glowering glare and grumbled, "Fine."
Red beamed.

After the group left the bridge, they strode down a short winding path. Almost immediately, they came upon a clear spring.
"Look!" Red shouted, pointing at the clear water. There, lying unconscious, was a boy who looked to be around seventeen. Thankfully, he wasn't face first in the water. The four Links rushed over to help.
Dragging him out of the spring, they tried to wake him up. Green shook his shoulder.
"Mister? Hey mister, wake up!" he said. The boy didn't move. Vio thought for a moment. Then, he had an idea. He had spotted some weird grass, which grew something that looked like a whistle. Picking it, he blew into it experimentally. It produced a high-pitched note. That would do nicely.
"What are you doing, Vio?" Blue asked incredulously, looking up from where he was watching Green's vain attempts to shake him awake.
"Wait and see," he answered, walking over with the plant. Kneeling down next to the unconscious hylian, he blew the grass as hard as he could next to his ear.
Instantly, the boy shot up, shouting, "Ilia!"
"Whoa, calm down mister," Green said, placing his hand on the panicked person's shoulder, "What happened to you?"
"Monsters… attacked, Ilia and Epona are gone! I have to find them!" The boy started to get up.
Epona? That name sounds familiar… Isn't there a horse named Epona in the knight's stables back home? Vio thought to himself.
"Hey, how about we help you!" Red offered, "What's your name?"
"Are you sure you want to help?" he asked.
"We don't have anything better to do at the moment," Blue answered, "Besides, we always help people."
"Alright, let's go," the hylian agreed, turning to leave.
"Yes!" Red cheered, jumping up and down.
"Oh, I'm Link, by the way," the boy informed them, "Now come on, I think they went this way!" He raced out of the spring.
The other links stood for a second, shocked.
"His name is Link too?" Blue asked.
"I think it's cool!" Red exclaimed, "Come on!" He raced after Link, the others following behind him. Vio was thinking hard. Another person named Link? And Epona too… That can't just be a coincidence… can it?
