CHAPTER 3- YGGDRASIL
"What is THAT?" Link said as he stared at the Mask that Mitch held in his hand.
Mitch looked at the Mask, grinning.
"Marvellous, isn't it?" he said. "I made it, you know..."
"How? Are you related to that crazy mask man by any chance?" Link replied with a bemused expression on his face.
Mitch just laughed.
"No, I am nowhere near the level of expertise that Resuum has raised to.."
"So, are you...a god or something?" Navi said, becoming slightly worried.
"Oh no..no.I am not really the creator of this dimension, nor do I have a name of power that will inflict those ailments on you...just a little scare tactic, you know how it is. The truth is, I am mortal, just like the Hero here.
"Can't you just call me Link? I'm sick of people calling me Hero..." said Link, looking at his feet, which were apparently standing on nothingness.
"Of course you are, mainly because you are not a Hero anymore." Mitch solemnly replied.
"What?!" Navi and Link uttered in unison.
Mitch sighed. "I know what the Sheikah Owl told you, Link. That you are not the Hero of Time anymore. But that is irrelevant just now. What is relevant is your upcoming challenges-"
"-Wait, I never agreed to any world saving or anything!" Link interrupted. "I don't want to risk my life AGAIN!!! Can't there be another Hero?"
"No, Link. I am sorry that you have these burdens to bear. To commoners, being a Hero may seem fun and adventurous, but I know how you feel about your status. You feel you have been punished, not blessed. I am deeply sorry for this, but you must rise again, Link. You must become the Hero once more." Mitch said. Mitch packed the mask away. He'd have to explain a bit more.
"Now Link. The masks of Changing. Namely, Deku, Goron, Zora and Giant.
Link was about to state that he no longer had the masks, but Mitch put his hand up to silence him. He clicked his fingers once, and the darkness around them began to swirl and transform.
"This, Link, is where the Aetheric Energy comes after it is dismissed. The Masks of Changing were destined to come here, so as no mortal would accidentally use its power."
The darkness began to move like water, flowing this way and that, splashing on the darkness of nothingness, changing, transforming, and then streaks of green, blue, white and yellow began to flow around inside the darkness..until..
The darkness disappeared in a flash, and was replaced by acres of green, lush grass. Link, Navi and Mitch were standing under an enormous tree. The sky was clear, save for a handful of fluffy white clouds.
"Link, we're back..inside the Moon.." Navi said gently, taking in the awe all around them.
"Not quite, Fairy Guardian. This is a part of the realm of Masks. The plains. The tree above us is called Yggdrasil, the Tree of Life. Maskmakers all around Hyrule, Termina and other lands seek this tree to make their masks. Had you noticed, Link, that all our masks never got wet underwater? Or were never burned or scorched by flame? This is because all of them are made from wood of this tree, and the wood is magick. It can never be destroyed." Mitch stated.
"What, so every mask in the world comes from this one tree?" asked Link.
"Not necessarily this one; there are thousands just like it, and all the important masks and some not-so -important ones are made from this species of tree." answered Mitch.
"So why have you brought us here?" Link enquired.
"For your masks" Mitch replied coolly.
Link was about to ask him what he meant when Mitch pulled out a small grey bag. He proceeded to close his eyes and put his hand inside. There was a sound like many stones being moved and pushed around inside the bag. Mitch then pulled out a small round transparent stone with a symbol engraved on it; Gebo, the rune of trust, shaped like a saltire cross.
Mitch opened his eyes and stared at the stone, then hastily put it back inside the bag. He shook the bag and offered it to Link.
"Pick a rune at random. This will determine whether or not you are destined to be the Hero again.."
Link hesitated, then put his hand into the bag, searching for a stone. At last he pulled one out, and gave it to Mitch. The stone's symbol resembled an arrow pointing upwards.
"As I thought. Teiwaz, the rune of Courage. It seems the Goddesses of Hyrule choose you as their Hero once more." Mitch said, the slight hint of a grin on his face.
Mitch then cupped his hands around his mouth and shouted in an ancient and foreign tongue.
"Yggdrasil! Drec ec Link, dra Hero Of Time. Sa sec byccat dra dacd, yht cu ec tacdehat du cyfa dra myhtc ykyeh! Kefa ser dra Masks of Changing!!"
When Mitch lowered his hands, the ground began to shake, and there was a dull roar emanating from Yggdrasil. Suddenly, knolls in the wood opened to reveal two eyes, a nose and a mouth.
"Great Deku tree?" Navi said, mystified.
"Not quite." Mitch replied.
The tree began to talk to Mitch.
"Dra Masks of Changing? Yna oui cina?" it said.
"Oac" Mitch replied.
"Jano famm" the Tree said, and as it did, it's branches shook, and four masks flew down to the ground. "Mitch, e ruba oui ghuf fryd oui yna tuehk.." the tree said, before the knolls in the wood closed over, and the tree became dormant once more.
"I do, Yggdrasil. I do." Mitch uttered.
He bowed his head, then turned to Link.
"Your masks. Safe and sound." Mitch said.
"This is only four." Came Link's reply. He counted the masks off with his fingers. "Deku, Goron, Zora and Giant. You've missed out the Fierce Deity."
"Oni-Kami will return to you when he is ready to. He is busy right now." Mitch said. "Your immediate concern is saving your friend Saria from a cruel and malicious death. Which will happen in precisely thirty minutes.
****
Ooooooh! Whats gonna happen? Will Saria be killed? And when will Oni-Kami return? And how is Oni-Kami a separate being? I bet you're all wondering 'Why so much emphasis on Masks? Well, these are NOT the only enchanted accessories lying around Hyrule, but I chose them because they represent a constant need to merge with your surroundings..well y'know how Link was in the Lost Woods at the start of MM, because he was trying to get away from being a hero? Well, Termina's Masks represent a change of character, of not knowing who is underneath the mask...or something cool and witty like that. Chappy 4 coming soon, Sorry these chappies are delayed so much...don't blame me.I'm too cute to blame.*puppy dog eyes*...
