The Age of Freedom and Truths
I am Obura, child of the Gerudo and Earth. Though I am mute, I wasn't born with it. It was a curse given to me by the Evil One's servants. However, two servants who resented him helped me find a way to remove it. If some one only said the words...
I continued to stay in my bed for the next couple of days. Then, Ria told me I could walk around if I wanted to. I was confined to the bed for so long, I had almost forgotten how to walk.
Impa accompanied me during my daily walks. We usually discussed what was going on, and who was who, seeing that I didn't know anyone. One day, Impa looked at me and asked:
"Can you show me? Your power... I'm so curious about it. You don't mind right? Can you summon living people's spirits?"
I nodded as an answer to all of her questions. Then, I waved both my hands, and thought something. To my amazement, I had summoned three different beings. Something I have never done before.
The first figure was Kirjava, or at least that's what I heard Impa mutter. The next figure was of the Deku Tree. The last, however was... him. I thought:
"The Evil One..."
Impa looked at me funny and said:
"What did you say...err... Think? Did you say the Evil One?"
Then, as if I had been holding my breath for the longest time, I gasped. Impa looked at me, then the figures who had started to approach, an owl Bane, and Enil. Also, two others approached with horses at their heels.
Bane smiled and said:
"Well, Enil... Looks like we found the Gerudo child."
I began to talk, to everyone's surprise, and said:
"I was mute because of the curse the Evil One had put on me. Dare I say his name, he would be summoned immediately. Unfortunately for me, I couldn't say anything sooner. I am Obura."
Enil nodded and stated:
"By the way, Everyone has completed their training."
Gesturing at the two boys with the horses. She continued:
"We will be riding horses. The quickest way to get through the tunnels once we start them. I'm assuming no one has ridden a horse yet... Except you Obura."
I nodded and said:
"I'll help."
It was the only thing I could do, since I knew it was me the Evil One's servants had followed.
We began training almost immediately. It felt good to ride on a horse again.
That day, I was amused at Morongo's efforts to ride a horse. He kept asking someone to help him up. Luckily, when Talon and Ingo came back the first time, they had a smaller horse for him.
To my amazement, everyone had ridden well. However, I was especially amazed at Impa's riding ability. For one so young to do well with horses was something I wasn't quite used to.
While I talked with Impa that night, I said:
"Impa, I believe that we Gerudoes and Sheikahs are somehow related. Though I have never seen the Sheikah people, I know we have some things in common. Both our races seem to have an innate talent for riding horses. The way we dress isn't too different either."
She sat and thought a while, and replied:
"Maybe so.... Though, I don't think that we came from the same descent."
I shook my head and answered:
"We don't have to. Maybe the two races lived together at one point, and separated at another."
After sitting for a long time thinking, Impa nodded. Maybe certain ideas made sense with enough proof.
The next day, we continued to train. This time with fighting skills. While I practiced sword fighting with Link, Enil had been teaching Zelda how to use magic. Bane taught other things to the rest, I knew it was something only that race could do.
At sundown, we had started a small fire in front of Link's dwelling. There, everyone, including Ingo and Talon, were discussing the plan. Bane cleared his voice and said:
"Tomorrow, we begin. I'm not sure how long this will take. Kaepora will be sending messages as always. Ingo and Talon will be bringing the horses everyday. They have much better facilities for them. Now, we may not be using all of the powers in the tunnel, but they will be used somehow. Impa, Obura, Rauru, and Morongo, we will not be of needing you assistance yet. I would like to see you finishing those passages to the Zora and Goron places."
We nodded, and soon after Enil spoke:
"This is not only for us, but for all of Hyrule. The Triforce is a neutral item. I can be good... It can be bad. It all depends on how you use it. If we let the Evil One take possession of the Triforce, things will be more corrupt than anything before."
In silence, we ate, thinking about what had been said. At the end, Morongo had picked up his dagger, and held it in the middle, he said:
"For the Triforce, for Kirjava."
Everyone, who all had weapons, put them in the middle as well, we repeated:
"For the Triforce, for Kirjava."
All the animals, Kaepora ,and the horses included, bowed their heads.
this ends the first part of The Children of the Light. Yeah. so... i'll go edit part two.
