There they were. The King and Queen of Hyrule, seperated from their
escorts, lost in the woods, and the Queen expecting a baby soon...
Not a good day.
"Oh..." moaned the Queen, "Oh, no, no, no...There are bound to be Wolfos everywhere..."
The bushes rustled.
"EEK!"
"Oh, for the goddesses' sakes...What now?" said the tired and annoyed King.
"Oh! Oh!"
"Calm down! There are no Wol –"
A very large pack of Wolfos emerged from the bushes.
"AAHH!" cried the Queen.
"Get – get out of here! Go on! GET AWAY FROM US!" the King roared, trying to scare them away.
A sharp slash narrowly missed his nose.
"WAH!" he yelled, seizing the hand of his trembling wife and dashing away.
Finally the King stopped, hiding behind the biggest tree he had ever imagined. Then he realized – her wrist had slipped from his fingers!
***
The Queen could see a giant tree in the clearing ahead. But...wait. It had – a face! The Deku Tree, she realized. They were in the Kokiri Forest. She tried to get up, but couldn't.
"Ooowww..."
She could see a large white flower drifting to ground from the tree. It's petals opened to slow the fall, and to reveal – a tiny infant. So...was this how a Kokiri was born? From a flower...
A howl sounded behind her. The Wolfos were surrounding her, closing in. The Queen still couldn't move! There was no escape...
***
The King stared at the baby girl resting on a flower, who was crying loudly. Was this...? It had to be. His daughter. But his wife was nowhere to be seen. She had wanted a girl. They had thought of the perfect name.
"Zelda..." he said.
Not a good day.
