Princess of the Zoras
Disclaimer: Take a wild guess.
------------------------------________________________--------------------
The Grand Hall of Zora's Domain is crowded. Zoran doctors and nurses surround the Queen. Next to the bed on a stand is Zora's Sapphire. A momentous occasion is happening, and it is only fitting. On the bed in front of the Queen is a special egg. Doctors and nurses are checking and rechecking that everything is prepared. This isn't just any Zoran egg. It is the heir to the throne of the Zoran people. And today is the day it is supposed to hatch.
Very softly, Queen Reil sings to her unborn child. Neither mother nor egg has left this sanctuary for almost three Hylian months. By Nayru they were going to make sure this child was safe if it killed them.
"It is almost time," one of the doctors says. Everyone prepares for the child's arrival. About twenty minutes later, the egg starts to change shape. The child's head slowly becomes visible, then the tail fin it will have for the first few months of its life. When the Zoran child is completely born, a nurse carefully picks it up. A doctor examines it, then looks at the Queen.
"A perfectly healthy baby girl." He pronounces. Another nurse leaves the room to inform the king. Queen Reil breathes a sigh of relief. Then she looks at the Sapphire.
"Thank Nayru..." she says. She closes her eyes for a moment. Everyone watches her expectantly. When she opens them, she stares straight into the Sapphire. "Nayru, in your infinite wisdom, please bestow a name on the child of the Zoras." She closes her eyes again. Everyone is holding their breath. Finally the Queen opens her eyes again.
"Well?" A nurse prompts. Reil nods.
"Ruto." She says. At the announcement of the name, the entire room erupts in applause. For the rest of the day and into the next, it can be heard echoing throughout the domain.
Although none of them know it, the Sage has been born.

I did one on Nabooru's life, and one of the reviews I got asked if I was going to do any on the others. This popped into my head. If anyone wants me to, I'll continue it.
