Hey there again! I'm back with another update. I figure I should get a few in before finals week
starts. Shiver. As many of you figured, this story will have LinkW/Tetra material. I'm not sure
about the LinkT/Saria, but it's possible. Saria is one of my favorite characters. I'm also considering
a few *interesting* plot twists. We'll see. Now, on with the story! Please be sure to send me
reviews! They are much appreciated!
Disclaimer: I do NOT own the Legend of Zelda. If I did, Link on WW would have proportional
legs.
The Legend of Zelda
The Golden Land
Chapter Ten
The Lord of the Seas
Everyone on the pirate ship were manning their assigned posts as they approached Greatfish
Isle. Actually, they approached what was lest of the isle.
The Hero of Time let out a low whistle. "Gee, you weren't kidding about this place. It's
trashed."
The Hero of Winds nodded. "Yeah. Ganon did this trying to find Lord Jabun. The water
spirit only returned here after Ganon was defeated." LinkT nodded.
"So, do we know exactly where we can find this Lord Jabun?" Tetra asked.
LinkW shrugged. "I'm not too sure. All I know is that he is somewhere around here."
"Let me try to bring him out," LinkT said, pulling out the Ocarina of Time. He put the
instrument to his lips and began to play a song that the others had never heard.
When LinkT had finished, Tetra turned to him. "What was that song?" she asked.
"That was the song of the royal family of Hyrule. It's also called Zelda's Lullaby."
"Oh."
"Miss Tetra! Look over here!" one of the pirates bellowed, pointing off the side of the ship.
Everyone turned to where he was pointing. The water stirred and the rose, parting as the large form
of a whale-like creature surfaced.
"So this is Lord Jabun," Tetra mused to herself. The water spirit opened its mouth and
uttered several words in a language the pirate princess did not understand.
LinkW slapped himself on the forehead. "I forgot! I can't understand a thing he says!"
Beads of sweat rolled down everyone else's foreheads.
LinkT looked curiously at the large fish. "Lord Jabu-Jabu?" he asked a loud. The massive
fish turned slightly, resting it's eyes on the Hero of Time. Again, it spoke in a strange language, this
time with a bit more of a surprised tone. LinkT nodded his head. "Yes, it's me," he said to the fish.
LinkW lifted an eyebrow. "You can understand him?"
LinkT nodded. "Lord Jabu-Jabu speaks an ancient Hylian dialect," Saria interjected. "It
was not so uncommon in Hyrule centuries ago."
"Oh. Why are you calling him Jabu-Jabu?"
"That was his name back in Hyrule."
"Oh."
LinkT turned back to the great fish. "Lord Jabu-Jabu, we need your help. The Fierce Deity
has returned. My seal was broken. We need to know if there is any way to raise Hyrule again."
The fish deity paused for several moments before uttering another string of words.
LinkT nodded. "Yes, I know. However, the only way we can face the Oni is to use the
Master Sword." Again, Lord Jabu-Jabu replied in his ancient language.
"I am well aware of this," LinkT replied. "However, we must choose between the lesser of
two evils. There is no other way." Again, the Lord of the Seas paused before replying.
The Hero of Time scratched his head. "How do we do that? The only entrance was in
Hyrule, at the bottom of the seas." Lord Jabun again replied in his ancient tongue. This time he
spoke for a longer period of time.
Once the sea spirit had finished, Saria interjected. "Are you sure we can get in through
there?" Again Jabun replied.
The great fish's eyes darted around the seas. He uttered more words in a hurried voice.
LinkT nodded. "Alright. Thank you for your help. We will go now as quickly as we can." Jabun
replied with a short utterance.
The Hero of Time nodded and turned to Tetra. "We need to head for Dragon Roost Island
as quickly as possible. Lord Jabu-Jabu said that time is very short. I'll explain once we are under
way."
Tetra nodded and turned to the sailors. "Alright you scurvy dogs! You heard him! Set sail
for Dragon Roost Island and step on it!"
* * * * * * *
Once Greatfish Isle had been reduced to a speck on the horizon, LinkW, Tetra, Medli,
Makar, Aryll, LinkT, and Saria convened in the captain's quarters.
The Hero of Time began to explain to the others what was happening. "Lord Jabu-Jabu said
that the Triforce was what buried Hyrule originally. As such, we have to use it to raise Hyrule
again."
"How exactly do we do that?" Medli asked, shifting in her seat.
LinkT continued, "The Triforce currently rests in the Sacred Realm. With Ganon sealed in
stone in this world, the Triforce was returned there. The land is once again a paradise of light.
Originally, the only entrance was through the Temple of Time in Hyrule City."
Saria continued for him, "However, when Ganon escaped his imprisonment in the Sacred
Realm centuries ago, he drove the Gorons from Death Mountain and set up his head quarters there
for the invasion of Hyrule. This was when the gods flooded Hyrule."
LinkW nodded thoughtfully. "Alright . . . but what does that have to do with anything?"
Saria rolled her eyes. "When Ganon escaped he created a connection between the Sacred
Realm and Death Mountain. Using that connection, Lord Jabu-Jabu said that we could enter the
Sacred Realm and use the Triforce."
Tetra nodded. "Okay, so we have to go to this 'Death Mountain' place. Do you mean that .
. . ?"
Saria nodded and interrupted. "Death Mountain is now Dragon Roost Island."
"So the entrance to the Sacred Realm was at my home the whole time?" Medli asked. Saria
nodded.
"Alright," LinkW said. "So we're going to go get the Triforce. Again."
* * * * * * *
Lord Jabu-Jabu watched the pirate ship sail away. He had not been jokin about the ergency
of the situation. When the ship fianlly sailed over the horizon, the Spirit of the Sea turned around.
I know thou art here, Oni, he called out. Show thyself!
The Fierce Deity descended upon the water before the great fish. He smiled rather
sadistically. "So, you are the Spirit of the Seas, great Windfish? How amusing."
Jabun stared down the demon. Thou shalt not destroy this world, Oni.
"Is that so? I guess we shall see."
The large fish narrowed his eyes. What do ye want?
Again, the demigod grinned. "I seem to be having a slight problem. You see, the Hero of
Time has arrows of light that I cannot defend against. These things are quite annoying."
This concerns me how? Jabun asked, his voice rising.
"Well," the Fierce Deity replied, "I was hoping you could help me find a way to defend
against this."
Thou knowest I will not aid thee. Why trouble thyself?
The demigod grinned. "Oh, your cooperation is not required. I merely need to extract the
information from your mind, Windfish."
Thou shalt not find that task easy, demon.
"Let's find out," the god of wrath replied hoisting up his massive sword. Lord Jabun cried
out in an ancient tongue and the oceans stirred. A pillar of water erupted under the evil god.
The Fierce Deity floated out of the water, annoyed, only to find spears of ice flying at him.
He skillfully began to dodge the magic projectiles. "Is this the best you've got?" he called,
shattering an ice spear with his sword.
Lord Jabu-Jabu began to swim away from the demigod. "Running away?" the Fierce Deity
called after him.
If thou wantest mine knowledge, thou must give chase. Or else leave now.
"Have it your way," the Oni replied, flying after the Windfish. Lord Jabun called upon the
sea and the powers of water to slow his pursuer. Not actually trying to flee, the Lord of the Seas
only wanted to stall the Fierce Deity.
The demigod chased after the last of the Windfish for a very long time. He was surprised at
how well his opponent could fend him off. Lord Jabun's powers were not very good for attacking an
opponent, but they were excellent for defense. In all, the pursuit lasted well over a week, neither
party relenting. The traveled many, many miles from Greatfish Isle in their confrontation.
In the end, however, the Fierce Deity finally caught up with the Spirit of the Sea. The two
battled using magic until finally, the god of wrath prevailed.
The Oni floated next the immobile form of Lord Jabu-Jabu. He place a hand upon the
Windfish. "Now, let us see what you know. It had better be worth all the trouble."
The Fierce Deity closed his eyes and began to read the Lord of the Sea's mind. Suddenly,
the ogre-god's eyes snapped open. "Impossible! How could it be so unguarded.?"
He again focused on reading the fish's mind. A smile slowly formed on the Oni's lips. At
last, he pulled away. "It is better than I ever anticipated! I will become invincible!" he cried,
laughing maniacally.
The demigod then turned to his opponent. He grinned cruelly. "No, I will not kill you.
That would be too kind of me." He raised a hand. Lord Jabu-Jabu levitated out of the water. With
the flick of a wrist, an egg shell formed around the spirit. "You will sleep forever, Windfish, trapped
in your own dream."
The egg containing Jabun rose in the air. A large island shimmered into existence
underneath it. The egg rested at the peak of the island. A shadowy figure emerged from the Fierce
Deity and entered the egg. "My nightmare will keep you sealed here, on the island created by your
own dream. May you never wake, Windfish."
As the Fierce Deity flew away, people began to emerge on the new island. All were the
product of Lord Jabu-Jabu's dreams. The people inhabited this island. They called it Koholint.
