Note: In Alink to the Past for SNES the 7 sages were called the 7 wise men though it was changed to 7 sages in alink to the past on GBA so I will be using "Sages" instead of "Wise men" to all that played alink to the past for snes. Now on with the story...




Chapter 4: Begining of the Pendent Quest


After bumping into a few guards and making a stop at my home I arrived at the Ancient Ruins. I slowly made my way through small monsters, expecting more. Soon I found a old building, small and old, I Decided to check it out. As I entered the 1 room structure I saw a old man Standing in the middle of it, just waiting, whispering to himself. I Approached him slowly, putting away my sword as I did so.

"I've been waiting for you Link..." The Elder began." I knew you would come, My name is Sashara, Elder of Kakariko and aswell as a decendent of 1 of the 7 sages."

"Princess Zelda has told me to seek you out and ask for you help in stopping Agrahim from opening the Sages Seal."

"Ah I already Know of Agrahim's Quest, and I also know that if your to face him now, you'd surely be Destroyed."

"I don't care, he's the reason my Uncle is now Dead, I Will Face Him and I Shall by Triumphant!" I Yelled at the Elder, Rage boiled in my blood, I Was ready to leave but then he spoke again.

"Child... if you fight him now you will be destroyed and this world will be doomed, you must not face him now, you must first claim the Legendary Master Sword before you can Inflict damage to him." I Stopped at this, I've heard of the sword from my uncle several times before but I've always just thought it as a myth

"But thats just a tale, theres no such thing as The Master Sword..."

"Ah... Thats where your Wrong my lad, Its as real as you and me... By your statement I assume you know already some of the Legendary Blade, The Blade wich makes Evil Flee in Fear..." Sashara slowly stepped closer to me with his head down.

"I shall give you a history lesson my Lad, many many years ago A great battle was Held with a man of Greed, he was Capable of tricking a young man to remove the Master Sword from the Pendastle and opening the way to the Sacred Land, at least thats what it was called back then... Years passed and the lad with the master sword has yet to show his face, within that short period of time the Evil Emporer layed waste to Hyrule, Eliminating the royal Family and Enslaving all who Remained in Hyrule with his never ending Swarms of Monsters... All the Royal family has been dead but one, the Daughter of the King Named Zelda, Princess Zelda. Zelda had escaped from the Evil Emporers Grasps only minutes before he claimed the Golden Power, and she too has not been seen for many years, aswell as her maid Impa, Impa of the Shiekah's, Impa, last of a tribe who served the Royal family in many ways. But I will not bore you with that information for at this time it's not needed for you to know."

"... welll just get on with how I can get the Master Sword already!" I practicly Yelled Fusterated at how long this old man could talk without getting to the main part.

"ahhh Temper Temper lad." He shook his finger at me slowly.

"I cannot leave out all of this... Now I'll continue with my story. Years has Passed and niether the lad who held the Sacred blade nor has the Princess of Hyrule has Been Seen... Untill one day..."

"...welll??? Come on Continue!"I yelled at the old man fustrated beyon my dreams.

"haha so you do want to hear my story now don't you?" That old man laughed, I then took out my blade and smashed it hard against the wall"

"GET ON WITH IT!!!" I Yelled at the old man.

"Tsk, put that blade away before you poke your eye out, then I shall continue." The Elder replied, and I did what he told me.

"Ah were was I now... Oh yes, Niether the Princess of the one that weilded the Sacred blade untill one day, when a Young Man, a Giant by first Reports has slain many Beasts within Kariki, a Tribe now gone, he cleared the Temple of the Forests and Freed one of the Sages From a dreaded phantom and restored peace to the Forest, and the same he did to the themple on Death Mountain, The Temple of Water, The Temple of Spirits and Finally the Temple of Shadows... After leaving to the temple of time did he meet the Final Sage, The Princess of Destiny, Princess Zelda. After Zelda has told the Lad How the evil Emporer obtained the golden power the Evil Emporer Found her! And took her to his castle, wich stood were Hyrule castle once did.The Lad Fought His Way through the Castle, Unlocking the Seals and made his Way to the Emporers throne Room were the Fight that forever would alter Hyrule and all of its inhabitants fate, only One walked away from the Fight, Th Lad then Freed Zelda But the Evil Emporer would not let them just leave like that, he used the remainder of his power and collapsed the Castle, Though his effort was in vein as the Lad and Zelda Exacaped from the Castle in the last second. they Rejoiced thinking the Evil emporer has died with the castle, but they were wrong, they quickly heard a Large noise, the Hero went to investigate when the Evil Emporer Risen from the Rubble and used the Golden Power to transform himself into a Giant Demon, he then smashed the master sword away from the Hero, seemingly a hopless sitiuation for our Hero but he Found a way to weaken the Evil Emporer enough to Reclaim his master sword, he Then Finished him off, but the Golden power wich the Evil Emporer held made it impossible for him to die so the sages all combined their power and Sealed him away within the Sacred Land with a seal that Would remain for all time... or so they hoped. After the battle Princess Zelda sent our Hero back in time, Repairing all the damage caused by the evil emporer and wiping out the memory of the happenings... no one remembered exept our hero and Princess Zelda so it seemed, Our hero then hid the blade back in its resting places and hid 3 Sacred Gems wich must be pocessed by anyone who wishes to claim the Master Sword..." and so he ended his story, I just stared and him trying to process all that he said, after a few seconds I decided to speak.

"So... I need those 3 gems if im to claim the Master Sword and Destroy Agrahim?" I asked

"Yes...."

"Well Where Can I Get them?"

"First go to the Temple within these ruins and Bring me back the Gem hidden there, then I'll tell you more about the Legend..."he finished and walked back to were he originaly stood.

"Whats the Gem Called?"

"Its the Pendent of Power."

"...Ok... So I guess I'll be going..." I said as I began leaving.

"Good Luck Lad... You'll be needing it..."

And so I left, I had a new Journey now...
The Journey to Claim all 3 Pendents and obtain the Master Sword so I Would be able to put an end to this and Defeat Agrahim, Avenging my Uncle.
Little Did I know then...
That collecting the Master Sword would only begin my Journey...
