Entry 8- Din, Nayru, Farore and a man of the desert
When I landed on the soft grass before the Deku Tree he congratulated me for my success and told me that he had important matters to tell me and asked I would listen. I told him I would, so he told me who cursed him, 'a wicked man from the desert' I repeated in my mind as he told me, and what I thought about sent shivers down my spine, the man in my dream swam into the front of my mind, and the evil I somehow felt within him. He then told me the story of the creation of Hyrule and the sacred realm, which I am going to write now.
A long time ago three goddesses descended onto the chaos that was once Hyrule. They were Din, the goddess of power, Nayru, the goddess of wisdom, and Farore, the goddess of courage. Din used her strong flaming arms to shape the land and created the bare earth. Nayru poured her wisdom over the land and gave the spirit of law to the world. Farore, with her rich soul, created life that would uphold the law. The three goddesses then left for the heavens, leaving three golden triangles. Since then the triangles, known as the triforce, and the realm that they were found in have been sacred.
After telling me this the Deku tree told me that the desert man in black armour must not get his hands on the triforce and that he was going to die soon because of the man, and although I broke the curse he was doomed before I even started to break it. He told me not to grieve for him, as he has been able to tell me about these matters. I got up and he continued by telling me to go to Hyrule Castle and talk to the 'Princess of destiny' he also told me to take the item that the man was looking for, and that he has foreseen that she will understand everything. He then gave me the Spiritual Stone of the Forest, also known as the Kokiri Emerald. I took it, unable to believe that he was actually giving this to me. He told me to go, and that I had great courage. He added with his last words to Navi, "I entreat ye Navi. good.bye." and he died before us, his wooden bulk went dry and his leaves started to brown and fall. "Let's get going to Hyrule Castle." Navi suggested, I nodded, as a lump in my throat left me unable to speak I wanted to cry in sadness, but I held it back as I was sure Navi would only feel worse, "Goodbye Great Deku Tree." she whispered as I left, she lingered a little, and flew after me.
Entry 9- Mad Mido. again
When I passed the Deku Babas Mido was blocking my way as usual. He then asked what happened, and if the Deku Tree died. I nodded, and then he blamed me for his death and before I could say another word he stormed off and out of sight. I knew this was going to spell trouble, but I had no choice but to let him go. I couldn't find Saria so I went to leave without saying goodbye.
I was crossing the bridge when a voice from behind me said, "Oh, you're leaving." I turned around to see Saria standing in front of me. I walked over to her, unsure of how to start explaining to her what the Deku Tree told me. She told me that she knew that I would leave the forest one day because I was different to her and the others, I thought Mido got to her again but she said that it was OK, because we were going to be friends forever. She gave me a Fairy Ocarina and told me to think of her whenever I played it. I didn't know what to say, so I nodded and ran through the tunnel to what lay beyond it.
