The Secret of the Sages
Disclaimer: I will never own it. I am poor.
"OK, let's think about this logically." Sheik says. They are all in a circle, only they have moved to Lake Hylia. Nabooru looks around the island they are all on. One tree, directly over the Water Temple. A good defense, if it weren't for that bridge leading right to it.
"What logic?!" Link shouts. Link's habits lately have been to hurt first and talk later. He has been getting really edgy. Did he unconsciously sense this coming? We all look at him.
"Well, Link." Impa says. "If you want to go all over Hyrule with no idea what you are looking for, be our guest." Link shuts up. Impa just nods. Does she even understand what a smile is? Everyone turns to Sheik.
"You have some kind of idea?" Zelda finally asks. Sheik nods.
"Well, we all know our own elements. The sages before us had the same ones right?" Everyone except Rauru nods. Rauru looks down.
"Sorry everyone." He says. "Each generation of Sages has different symbols. So we can't go by the same ones we have." Link slaps his forehead. Nabooru whistles. Impa growls a bit. Everyone else is just in shock.
"Rauru...." Zelda says, "At least tell us you know what they are...." Rauru nods.
"I do. But I don't know where their temples are." Link is on his feet.
"SO SPILL ALREADY!!!!!!!!!" Link shouts. Draunia, who was sitting next to him, reaches up and shoves him back down.
"If you will just calm down...."Rauru says. "I will." He waits for a moment to see if Link will give them another outburst. When he is satisfied that Link has finally calmed down, he continues. "There are six of them as well. Rock, sky, solar, lunar, eclipse, and life." Everyone thinks about this for a few minutes.
"Hey Rauru?" Nabooru asks. Rauru turns to her. "Do Sages die?"
"No, they are sealed in special chambers in their temples." Saria's eyes go wide.
"So, there are never the same symbols ever again?" she asks.
"Not exactly...." Rauru replies. "We are only the Second Generation of Sages."
"The SECOND?" Impa cries. "Tell me you're kidding....." Rauru shakes his head.
"But, Sages have existed since the beginning of time....." Ruto says.
After this whole thing sinks in, they begin to plan what to do.
**Back in the Fortress....Nabooru is in a really great mood....**
Nabooru is looking through stacks of papers. The discarded ones are in a pile in a corner. One of the guards comes in just as she throws another one into the pile.
"Lady Nabooru?" She asks carefully. Nabooru looks up.
"Yes?" Nabooru is really impatient.
"We....um...we were wondering what you were doing..." Nabooru looks at her for a moment. Then she just sighs.
"I need some information, and I am not finding it." She finally says, gesturing to the pile. "Do you know anything about the Sages?" she asks. The guard looks at her a moment.
"Of course! Fire, Forest..." Nabooru shakes her head.
"No, before those." The guard just stares a moment.
"I'm sorry Lady Nabooru, I have no knowledge of any before those." Nabooru sighs. This is going to be difficult.
"Don't worry about it." Nabooru goes back to her search, and the guard leaves. As Nabooru goes through the books, something clicks in her mind. But it is not clear enough to make out yet. Something.... a place with knowledge.... she has been there.....some book...they just did this!! It is right there, yet out of her reach. She goes back to what she was doing, hoping it will come of its own accord. As she is looking through the back books, one catches her eye. 'Of fairies and Kokiri', one of their children's books. Fairy......FAIRY ELENTEN!! The book she needed to defeat the fairies!!! The abandoned Sheikan Village! Maybe that holds the key. Just one problem, the last time, they had directions. She doesn't anymore. Not unless she can convince Sheik to help her. She cleans up so it doesn't look like a desert twiler came through, and then heads over to Hyrule Castle, hoping Sheik is there.
To be continued......
