A/N: This story is about how link always seems to come around at the perfect time, also how Hyrule seems to have a constantly changing landscape. I don't have much to type now, so here is something I have to open it up. Hope you like it. Soon I hope to have a timeline of Hyrule, and of the life ( and lives) of Link, Zelda, and Gannon. Respond if you like it so I will write more.
Chap 1: prolog
It was a quiet spring night, clear and cool. All was calm, light came only from the moon, stars and the little cabin on the edge of the woods.
It is in this cabin that the greatest hero will be born. None knew of this baby's great future, none but one. This one stood at the top of a great tower looked down on the new kingdom of Hyrule, an empire, created from a successful uprising of it's people.
The king, a good and virtuous man had reluctantly taken power, hence the reason he was made king. The mage of the realm, the teacher, the master, was a strict magic user, while the onlooker, the apprentice Toru, was a fun loving child with the extraordinary power to see distant places.
This power granted him to see the child and his future. At the same time, he saw another child. The infant still will someday rival much older. The boy he saw, the boy that was raised by a band of female thieves would someday try to take power. The boy, the boy Gannondorf, later to be known as Gannon the Powerful shall be known as the master of Hyrule and the Triforce unless the sleeping boy could come to realize his destiny.
This however this prediction fell upon deaf ears. The young mage was far to young to worry about such distant future. What worried him was here and now, this was neither. To him, all that mattered was that his master didn't know what he had seen, what future lied ahead for these to youths, and the third. The girl.
Yes, he had seen another role in his vision. The role of the princes, Zelda. She had not been born yet, not even conceived. Yet he could feel her presence, the graceful elegance reserved for the woman of royal and noble birth, and there where no other royal or noble families, besides the king's family.
So sleep child of the forest. Feel the warmth of your mother, hear the beating of her heart, smell the leather of your late father's armor hanging near the bed. Sleep, young Link, and dream of sweet dreams that the children of your time. Worry not of the child of the dessert for he is sleeping to, and sleeping children cause no harm. All children need to sleep, as do you. You will have plenty of time to stay up late later so rest your eyes, and dream.
