the legend of zelda: nermaro's crown
The story
Long ago, the three goddess, Din, Nayru, and Faore created the land Hyrule and it this land, they left there labors, the Triforce. Unbeknownst, to the Hyrulians, the three goddess also created an another land, Utonial. It was once peaceful and lovely. The river's water was said to heal wounds and aid in healing. It's air was so fresh that many kept bottles of air, in case it would run out. After their labors, they left a crown. A crown beyond any crowns. Given directly to the king of Utonial, King Thedren, this crown would serve as a balance of the bloodline from father to son. Much desired it and many of villainous peoples tried stealing it but the power of the crown was too strong and righteous. One fateful day, when the 7th king to the throne, King Saurson, was in power. A party of 4 nomads mysteriously to the land and whispers of death, fear, and evil swept the land. A dark cloud grew over the great land of Utonial and the air started to be polluted and not that much desired for. The waters of Utonial, instead of healing, it harmed many weary traveliers. Evil biengs from unknown places leapt forth and a fortress sprang up, in the most southern border of the country. In this fortress, the 4 black magicians (who left their nomadic ways and in Utonial) lived. Commanding a legion of undead and the most wretched of creatures. Many were deformed Utonians and controlled animals. The legion of evil attacked the castle of Nermaro and a mighty war broke out. Many died. Many suffered. Few survived. The king, Saurson was killed but his wife, the beautiful Queen Maladoor ran and went into hiding with her infant son, Prince Dora and took the mighty crown. Kept safe by a army of the king, they also were blanketed from the power of magic. A wizard, by the name Susurn, shielded them and with his every inch of power, he defeated the army of undead and banished the 4 wizards to a void. One escaped though, his name was Gasuda and fled to a nearby land named Hyrule. Attempting to serve under Lord Ganondorf (during when link was asleep). Ganondorf banished Gasuda from him and attacked him. Gasuda fled and became a nomad once again and vowed to get revenge on utonial and Hyrule. The new king Dora began his leadership at 16 years old. (link just defeated Ganondorf) and the land became peaceful again. Under great leadership, he increased security on it's borders. In Hyrule, Link just came back from Termania and has settled back down in the Koriki Forest. Link once again had a fitful nightmare of a distant land and a mighty and powerful wizard with a crown, sitting at a thrown. This dream plagued Link for 2 weeks until the fateful day when the wizard came. And this is were our story begins..
Chapter 1: Link's Fateful Quest
The land of Hyrule continues as usual, the usual day, usual weather, and usual feeling. With the threat of Ganon, his evil banished from Hyrule, and everything back to normal, everyone is merry. In a small village, with strange houses made of large tree stumps is where our quest begins.
A small boy, clad in a green tunic (looking like an copy of Peter Pan) is whistling to himself and picking up mushrooms. Grabbing one by it's head, he yanks the fungi out and places it gently in the bag next to him. For no reason, the ground begins to buckle and shake. Link, balancing himself, looks around. Looking for the reason for the cause of this tremor. As Link looks at the ground, a shadow envelopes Link in a dark shadow of black. Horrified, Link looks skyward to his amazement of rocks falling from the sky. Stuck in time, Link's face grows pale as thousands upon thousands of falling rocks on fire fall from the sky. Link turns his direction to see a giant rock heading right towards Link. Looking widely, Link makes a dive towards an open deku scrub hole. Appearing in the hole is a friendly deku scrub, who extremely nervous and frightened.
"What could this be? What is causing rocks falling from the sky?" The Deku panics but Link can only look at the ground and shake his head.
All around them, the Earth is shaking and thoughts of Zelda, Saria, Malon, and all of his other friends he made during his quests. He gets lost in his thoughts and memories and doesn't feel the Deku Scrub shaking his shoulder.
"Link! Link!" The Deku, calls out his name urgently. Link comes to from his thoughts and looks at the Deku Scrub. "I believe the rocks have quit falling and it's save to go outside. It's just the entrance is jammed. Link, do you have a solution to our current problem." The Deku politely asks.
Link thinks for a minute and comes up with an answer. Reaching into his belt, he pulls a small brown bag, opens it and pulls out a small bomb. Link then goes out to the entrance and lights the fuse and just holds it.
"Link, excuse me! Aren't you supposed to throw it?!" The deku panics while sweating bullets. He runs for cover behind a small plant and covers his head. Link's bomb starts to glow red and then Link throws it upwards. With a deafening sound, the bomb explodes causing rock and pebbles to explode every which way.
The Deku gets up and dusts him off. "I'm off to search for my family but after what has happened, I don't doubt we are the only ones left."
Link climbs out of the small grotto to his amazement find destruction, fire, and panic. He helps out the deku out and the Deku runs off into the distance. Without hesitation, Link runs off towards his village. Entering the village, he finds all the Koriki houses are gone and the merry songs, dancing, and joyful chorus has all disappeared. The light does not shine of a strange green glow but instead, of blood red. Fire dances on the walls cascading horrible shadows. In the middle of the small village, a lifeless form lies there. Link, with tears streaming down his face, runs towards the figure and in his mind, he wishes it's not her, it's not her. Please let it not be her.
Link stands over the figure and his face becomes distorted, almost horrified. With a scream, he yells out and slams his fists on the ground, and the ground shakes.
Link, his eyes red from tears, walks off towards the bridge and in the background, a tombstone lies and etched in it says "In loving memory of Saria, the Fairest of all the Koriki, Sage of the Forest Temple".
Link leaves the once massive trees of the Koriki forest and enters Hyrule Field to find more death and destruction. All the grass is burned and no trees are in sight. He looks towards Lon Lon Ranch and that lies in ruins, it's once great steeples toppled down. The air smells and the sky is of a putrid color, that of a polluted, murky swamp. It's clouds circle and twists, lighting, color of purple, strikes the ground and a giant boom always follows. Link, wanting to go to Lon Lon ranch, starts off but in his mind, he knows he must go to the castle.
Pressing with every strength, Link pushes against the horrible winds. Of in the distance, a fiery glow erupts and a tornado, a funnel of terror and death, touches down throwing debris and destruction high in the air. F
Finally making it to the Town's gates, he walks through it. It's marts and stores burned down, skeletons lying, destruction. The temple of time, used a be a place of magnificence and grace is now reduced to rubble. Making his way to the Castle. The castle to lays in ruins and fire sprouts everywhere. Finding a small crack, Link enters the demolished castle. The great castle's steeples and peaks rose high in the air, showing the Hyrulians courage and power, are now reduced to rubble too.
Link continues to crawl through the rubble and has been scraped up my the carnage.
"...Link.." cries a voice amidst the rubble. Link looks around and listens carefully.
"..Link..." The voice cries and dies off. Link, in his mind, knows it's Zelda and he rushes as fast he can go, not caring for his personal injuries. As he paces a sharp stone, it's cuts his cheek, past his eye, and up to his eyebrow, giving him a scar there for as long as he lives. Finally a clearing, but to his amazement, theirs a blue forcefield holding the debris out of it and in the middle is a tall and stern woman, raising her hand towards the heavens. Glowing in light blue, this is Impa, Zelda's maid and guardian. Next to her, lying is the princess of Hyrule, the beautiful Zelda.
Link runs torwards Impa and Zelda and knees down and places his hand on her hand. Impa looks down on them and looks upwards, concentrating all her energy on her given task. Zelda opens her eyes and her eyes focus to see Link. A fate smile appears on a beaten and dirty face.
"Link, Im glad you came. I'm afriad I have another task for you and trust me, its far more dangerous then the battle against Ganondorf. So Link, will you go on this quest?" Zelda pleads faintly and all Link can nod his head. "A evil man has caused this evil. A black magician, his name is Gasuda. You have been seeing dreams of him and I know so because so I have. His reasons for destroying Hyrule is not yet known to me but I can feel his evilness and it's in another world. A world out of our world, it's name is Ultonial and Gasuda is about to unleash his evil on that world." Zelda pasues to catch her breath and she starts to show signs of faintness. "Link, the only way to bring to Hyrule is to defeat Gasuda once and for all and play this song on your ocarina."" Zelda expalins and from no where comes a melodous song that brings hope, courage, and new begguinings to Links mind. The song finally finishes and Zelda speaks again. "Link, concentrate and close your eyes." Zelda instructs and Link does so. The duo start to glow and Zelda lets go. Link finds himself in a spinning vortex streaming with many colors. Tumbling and falling, she looks back and finds Zelda lying, peacefully and Impa, releasing her forcefield to tend to her Zelda. And then the rocks fall.
Link turns away and starts to cry and hisn eyes open and a new fire rekindles in his eyes. He looks at his hands and they begin to grow in size and the legendary Master Sword appears in front of him. He grabs the blade and sheathes it.
"Ultonial..." A voice from the void echoes.
A party of thousands of men, weary from war and battered and bruised. A thick and heavy fog settles in and the sky is a pale red with several dark red pacthes. Thunder strikes the ground and from the streams comes untouchable, polluted water.
The leader, clad in hard mail, clutching his arm and he rides a great steed. A red cloak overhanging of his shoulders, he rides on with sorrow in his eyes. "I wonder when the ambassador will come" The leader thinks to himself. "Poor Hyrule, Poor Princess Zelda" He adds as saddness and sorrow comes to him.
A great flash sparks up further ahead and catches the army. "I want two scouts to go ahead and find out what that flash was!" The leader orders. "Yes, King Dora. Right away sir" Says a strong and burly man and he rides off followed by a skinner more lean man. The party watches their shaodws fade in the dense fog, waiting to her word.
15 minuets later, the two scouts are riding back and someone running on foot. The two scouts and a man, clad in green and blond hair stop. The strong and burly man comes and kneels. "My king, I have brought a friend. I immediately recognized his style of outfit. It's from the Koriki from Hyrule, sire." The scout announces and the King looks down at the man, who is Link.
"So this is the ambassador from Hyrule. He is indeed a Hero of Time." The king says, his depression bieng lifted by seeing Link. Link looks around questionaly. "oh, maybe Princess zelda hasn't told you. Well, my relam and her relam are jointed togther. This may be new to you, young hero. Certainly, Zelda has told you about the Gasuda, correct?" The king asks and Zelda, with fury in his eyes, nods. "Zelda told me she will send an ambassador if Hyrule falls to the evil Gasuda to try and stop him here. She didn't describe the ambassador except he will be carrying the legendary Master Sword and will be clad in green. May I see the sword to verify who you are?" The king asks and Link draws out the Master Sword.
It's brilliant gleam fills the area with light and that is enough to draw back the fog around him. Men in the Company whisper "The sword" "The legends are true" and "The Master Sword of Hyrule"!! Link sheaths it back and the area around them fills up with fog and darkens.
"You truly are Hyrule's amabassador. Now Zelda has told me your name too." The king struggles to remember. "Was it Link?" Link nods his head in agreement. "Link, tell me how was Hyrule doing when you left. Is Zelda ok, is Hyrule safe?" The king asks.
Link bows his heads down and shakes his head. "Oh, that's too bad." But the kings face lightens up. "Zelda told you if you destroy Gasuda, both worlds will be brought back to normal?" The king asks and Links face brightens too.
"Well, we better leave for the castle, there are many spies and evil creatures lurking about that work for Gasuda. We are a day away fromt eh great Castle Ultonial. So Link, you willing to help both Hyrule and Utonial?" Link smiles and nods his head. The kign then remembers something. "Zelda sent us a horse, her name is Epona through the void's link. Is that your horse?" The kings asks and Link nods his head. "Well, she's waititng at the castle's stable, recieveing the best and greatest care. There we can discuss our dilemma." The King, helps Link up onto his horse and like wind, they head off torwards Utonial Castle.
