The Age of Discovery and Adventure

I am Taliv, child of the Rito and of the Earth. I know that there is a connection between the Rito race and the Zora race. I have yet to wonder what it is.

I walked through the door behind me, wondering what my fear was. For I, never having a worry before in my life. I looked, and what I had seen amazed me. I saw Zelda standing in the room.

I flew up to her, but when I approached her, she fell and a pool of blood surrounded her. I looked around and saw my other companions surrounded in blood.

In the background, voices chanted:

"You have failed."

Through all the chanting, I heard a tiny voice:

"You're friends are okay, tend to their wounds, and they will be all right."

I did what the voice had told me, and soon, the door had appeared.

I walked through, and saw the Child. When I approached the Child, I saw that there were two children sitting on the throne. They saw me and, in unison said:

"We are the Child of this Domain. You may see two, but we are connected and are one."

One of these children spoke:

"I am Kila, and this, is my sister, Kurana."

I greeted them with my name, and asked:

"I have wondered why we are connected, the Zora, to the Rito, can you explain this to me?"

Kurana spoke this time, and answered:

"The Goddesses wanted to have every race adapt to land. What they did was create many different fish and birds. Without telling the races what they were to do in order to be able to speak, the Goddesses would be able to see who deserved this gift. The Zora and the Rito were the ones who praised the Goddesses. Both of our races have the same meaning, Blessed by the Goddesses, the only difference is that your race is in the language of the birds, while ours in of the fish."

I thought about her answer, and it had made sense.

Kila instructed me to look behind, for I would see what my friends have feared, and I would be the only one to see it, besides the Zora.

Morongo had feared touching water, while Zelda feared losing her gift. I looked at Link's, and saw that his fear was telling Zelda about his profound love for her. When I saw Kirjava, I couldn't understand. Hers showed a war, it showed all of her companions, but it included the people who looked like her parents.

As my companions fought their fears, I wondered if what I thought was true.

After leaving the Zora's Domain, the Children of the Earth lagged behind a bit. There, Morongo told us about Kirjava and her family.

I listened to Kirjava's life story, and was sad. I had found out that the people Kirjava was fighting side to side with were her parents.

Only then did we all realize that it was dark, when the monsters come out. At that moment, skeletons appeared from the ground. Link had then yelled:

"Attack with all you've got! These skeletons or Stalchilds are pretty weak."

I then flew up, and started dropping rocks on our adversaries. Soon the hoard of them disappeared.

We continued on our way to the Kokiri's realm, where Link and his family dwelled.

When we had stepped into the realm a young boy greeted us by saying:

"Welcome. We have been expecting you."

He then led us to our sleeping quarters. Zelda had shared hers with Kirjava, I with the rest of the of Children.

During the night, Morongo had woken me up, telling me that there was an urgent matter at hand. Kila then explained what the Chamber of fears was meant for. Kila had said:

"The Room of Fears was meant to be the Room of Predictions. It became fear when a Zora saw what he feared most when building a room. In the room, we had seen Kirjava being taken away. We never know when it happens, but what ever we see is true. We must warn her."

That night I heard Morongo leave our quarters. I figured that he was going out to follow Kirjava again.

The next day, Morongo told the Children of the Earth about what he had learned. He had said:

"The Deku Tree had mentioned us playing a part in the future, as if he knew I was there. He also mentioned that we could see from the Children's eyes when apart. He told Kirjava that her parents loved her very much, and to not worry about meeting them, you were very young."

At the mention of Kirjava, we had remembered what would happen to her, and were silent. I knew we were all thinking of ways to warn her.

Unfortunately, we never got to warn her that day. Link, Zelda, and Kirjava had left. The Deku Tree had told us, after we had our meeting. They had left for Hyrule Town Square. Kurana mentioned:

"This is our chance to test what the Deku Tree had told us."

We then lay on the soft grass beneath us. Pondering on what we should do. I looked to my companions, and one by one, they drifted off in to a deep slumber. In my head I heard the Deku Tree:

"Close your eyes, and think about what you have learned. Relax, that is the only path. Remember this, no matter where you are, or how far apart you are from the Children. You can always look through their eyes."

I then closed my eyes, and drifted off into the darkness.
