Everywhere he looked, he could see Surbrosians running around in panic. It was unusually cool down here too.


Fighting his way among the tiny populace, he came across Rosa. "Link, thank the stones! We wanted to find you, but we can't


leave Surbrosia right now! It's a mess! The Evil One was here-" "What!?!" "The Evil One was _here_. He tried to get in! We


stopped him, and the Vulia-Cuin exploded and he got the secret stone!" "Secret stone?" "Oh yeah, it's a secret. Anyway, he


got it and took it back with him. That happened a few days ago, as you toppies think time." Link sat next to Rosa and held


her by the shoulders. "Rosa, try to calm down. What is the secret stone?" Rosa sobered up and explained. Surbrosia was a


secret and hidden place because the Surbrosians were in charge of guarding the Golem Stone. It was a powerful stone that


when controlled by the Chosen One, would bless them with it's powerful magic. But when misused, it's power could destroy


everything. The Surbrosians had locked the Golem Stone inside the mighty volcano Vulia-Cuin, and thought it safe from theft.


"Great, and he's already used it." Link said. Such an object was the only way Ganondorf could have broken free of Triforce


magic. "Rosa, how do we stop the Golem Stone?" "It is an object of Fire," she said, "Only Fire may wield it. Link, if you


are going to fight the Stone then I must go with you!" Rosa was adamant. She was the descendant of the Surbrosian who'd


locked the stone away, and was the only one who knew it's full powers. Link finally agreed, and Rosa brought three friends


with her - for protection, she said. They were Cane, Wisp, and Lily. All of them were skittish about going aboveground, but


they swallowed their fears for the sake of their duties. Cane was an old friend of Link's. As they made their way back to


the Temple of Time, Cane and Link spent the nights going over what they'd missed in each others lives. "Don't worry, my


friend." Cane said. "He and you will find harmony eventually." Link said, "I hope you're right."



















Meanwhile, Lace was very busy. She and Quill were running around helping and asking questions. What she learned was


disturbing. Freak accidents and strange appearances had been happening all over the place. Cows stopped giving milk, and


not even Epona's Song was helping. In addition, wild animals were behaving strangely. She had been attacked by panicking


Keese in the Market on twelve separate occasions. Wolfos would trail her from place to place. Even an Redead she had seen


had ignored her, and just stood waving it's arms and making a bone-chilling wail. Death Mountain was incredibly active, and


the only clue she'd unearthed was a whisper between two Gorons in Clock Town. "The Stone, it has to be!," was all they'd


said. Now the week was up, and Lace was looking for the Temple. In her haste, she had neglected to ask how to find it on


her own. "Augh! I'm either very proud or very mad that Link made the Temple so hidden!" She said irritably. Quill


nickered condescendingly, and trotted to Lon Lon Ranch. There, they ran into Epona grazing. "Yeah, sure Quill. Suck up to


your mom," Lace teased. With Epona's help they made it to the Temple in no time. Navi was wondering aloud where Link was


when they walked inside and found themselves alone. "Who knows? My brother is the weirdest person in Hyrule." "Hey!"


"Admit it Navi, you agree with me." "Yes, but I don't go yelling it to the whole world!" "And for that I'm ever so


grateful," said the voice behind them. Lace turned around, and cried, "Link!" Then she saw the really small people in hoods


behind him. They looked really shy, and one was wearing a big red bow and matching key. "Who're your friends, big bro?"


Lace asked. "In a minute," was all Link said. He walked to the door of time and pulled out the Ocarina of Time (an old


gift from Zelda) and played Saria's Song. One blinding flash of light later, he walked back to Lace, trailed by all Seven


Sages. "We couldn't find anything," Zelda whispered to Lace. "Me neither," Lace said back. "Link, you said you found it?'


Rauru asked. He didn't look comfortable outside the Sacred Realm. "Yes, tell us Brother," Darunia said. Link didn't look


happy, but just said, "The Golem Stone." That brought an immediate reaction. "There's no way!" Darunia protested. "That


stone is merely myth!" "It is real," said one of the little people Link had brought. She stepped forward and bowed. "I am


Rosa, leader of Surbrosia, and what our friend says is true." Lace had never seen a Goron go pale before. "Darunia, do you


know something we don't?" Impa asked. Link also looked intrigued. "And here I was told that no one knew about Surbrosia."


he said. "Alright! The entire Goron race is aware of Surbrosia!" Darunia admitted. "Our ancestors were sworn to secrecy


when the Golem Stone was first placed there." "That's what they meant!" Lace blurted. "I heard two Gorons talking in Clock


Town. They were saying something about a Stone!" Rosa nodded. "The Gorons know of the Stone, but only the Surbrosians know


of it's full powers. The Evil One tried to escape to our home, and he got the Stone through sheer chance." "That explains a


lot that's been going on," Link took over. "He knew he couldn't get _through_ the Barrier, so he's been trying to punch


through the void between worlds and make an escape. And that way, we would never have noticed until he attacked us from


behind!" "What exactly has been going on?" Ruto asked. "The wild animals have been behaving erratically for some time now.


I've been finding the undead in thethe liveliest places you could imagine. And certain creatures in places they were never


meant to inhabit." "I remember what you said about the Skulls at the Castle…" "It's everywhere." "Now that I think about


it, the spirits in the Forest Temple were acting pretty strangely before…" "So what can we do?" "You must find the Stone!"


Rosa, being a celebrity, was more used to attention than her fellow Surbrosians. She took center stage rather gladly at this


point. "You must find the Stone! We must lock it away before great tragedy befalls every world! The Stone is difficult to


sense, so someone must go look!" Unconsciously, everyone's gaze drifted to Link. "I might as well," he said. He sounded a


bit depressed. "But there will be a problem. If I go back, and Ganondorf tries to go through…nothing you can do will be


able to stop him." Link looked at Zelda while he said this. "The Triforce will not allow you to block him if one piece is


trying to pass through. It cannot be used to destroy itself." Silently, everyone nodded. "You all had better get ready for


the worst. If he comes, the best place for each of you is your Temples. Alright?" They nodded. "Good luck, Hero of Time,"


Rauru said softly. Link walked to the Master Sword. A moment later, he pulled it free, and was enveloped in a blue light.


It swirled until the only thing left was a glowing blue oval hanging where the Pedestal of Time had stood. "You guys better


stick with the princess and me, okay?" Lace said to the frightened Surbrosians. They nodded, and everyone left.
