Link looked at the figures before him. He was expecting a small child for some reason, but not a seven-foot tall bearded thing or a fish creature. He thoroughly examined each and every one of them and finally he came upon the Gerudo. Gerudo, he hated that word, a Gerudo was apparently trying to kill him and one had killed his father. A flame of anger grew within his heart and his fists clenched. Zelda looked and apologizing to the Sages with her eyes took Link off to a small corner where they couldn't be heard. "What's the matter?" she whispered slash screamed. Link looked at her with flames of angry passion burning behind his icy blue eyes, "She's a Gerudo. I don't like Gerudos." Zelda looked at Nabooru and back at Link "Oh, my goodness, I get it since you found out that your dad died by fighting a Gerudo you've grown a grudge against all Gerudo." Link just glared at the Gerudo girl, seething with anger. Zelda grabbed his face with one hand and jerked it towards her "Listen to me, she didn't kill your father and she's not gonna kill you. She's going to help us defeat Nerrudon and Ganondorf once and for all." Link looked at the heiress astonished, and shook his head. He looked at her face, and then the faces of the Sages and began to weep. He fell on his knees and put his hands over his face, pouring out enough tears to fill Lake Hylia twice over. Zelda got on her knees and placed one delicate hand on his back and rubbed his blonde hair with the other. "I'm sorry, I don't know what came over me." He stammered amongst the tears "I just became so angry with a person I don't even know." Zelda comforted the weeping figure "It's alright, it's a lot to take in in one day. Someone wanting to kill you, finding out your father's death was something totally different than what you were told, finding out you're the world's last hope." She stopped as she said those last words. Link looked up at her with a confused look. She gave him a slight smile and said, "Well, your name is Link. Don't tell me you didn't think you wouldn't save Hyrule." He stood up and wiped the tears from his eyes "Well, I wasn't expecting to be told like I just was told." He looked at the faces of the Sages yet again and stood up entirely. He walked up to Nabooru and hugged her. Nabooru, confused by this action, patted him lightly on the back. Link stepped back and looked in her eyes.
He looked at Zelda and standing straight up said, "Well, what do I have to do?" Zelda and the Sages smiled. "Well, first," a tiny voice said, "He has to meet me." Link looked around and saw no one, and then he looked up. He saw a tiny ball of blue light. Zelda laughed to herself "I'm sorry, Navi, I forgot all about you," She turned to Link "Link, this is Navi, she helped the first Link to defeat the monsters in all the temples, and she also helped him to defeat Ganon." Navi flew around in circles and said with her tiny voice "I didn't help him much. Link had to figure out how to beat him on his own." Navi flew close to Link's face and studied him. Link had an odd look on his face the entire time, his eyes following the tiny orb of light. Eventually, he shook his head and rid himself of dizziness. Navi flew over to Zelda and whispered something in her ear. Zelda looked at Link and giggled, then continued to listen. Link looked cross-eyed at his face and furiously wiped everything on his face. Zelda looked at him laughing even louder "We're not talking about you." She said comfortingly. Ignoring them Link turned his attention to the Sages. He had seen them, studied them, but he hadn't met them yet. He came to the little girl and he bent down "Hi, I'm Link. What's your name?" "Saria," She said with a slight giggle "I'm the Sage of the Forest." He looked into her eyes and saw something very comforting, something….kind. He moved on to the tall bearded…thing. Before Link even said anything, the creature spoke "My name is Darunia! King of the Gorons and Sage of Fire." He beamed with happiness "And you are the Hero of Time!" he slammed his hand on Link's shoulder three times. With each blow there was a small shockwave "Man," Link thought to himself "You'd think he ate rocks or something." He then came to the fish creature. He realized 'it' was a 'she'. Her sleek scaly body shone in the sunlight. He gulped and blushed at seeing her body. She smiled and winked at him "My name is Ruto, I am Princess of the Zoras and Sage of Water." Her deep blue eyes pierced Link's soul and he smiled. He moved on to the next Sage. Before him stood an Amazonian woman with a knife hilt sticking out from a sheath hanging horizontally on the bottom of her back. She bowed and spoke "I am Impa, a Sheikah, attendant to the Royal Family of Hyrule, and Sage of Shadow." He backed up looking at them all again. He had met all the Seven Sages. The Seven Sages that sealed Ganon in the Sacred Realm in the first place.
He looked back at Zelda and Navi and saw that they had stopped talking amongst themselves. He walked up to Zelda and stared at her. She didn't notice him for the first ten seconds, but after a while she began to look at him out of the corner of her eye. "Link! Stop!" she screamed, but he just kept staring at her. He had realized it was annoying her and he continued to do it. She looked at him again and had a very frustrated look on her face. Finally, she started to stare at him. Link walked back over to the Sages and stood next to Darunia. Zelda then remembered something she was to do, or at least it was her duty as the Seventh Sage. She waved the Sages over to where she was standing and they got in a huddle. They spoke to each other for five minutes. While they were having a meeting, Navi flew over to Link and landed on his shoulder "You nervous? She asked. Link looked at her resting on his shoulder "Yea, a little bit. I mean it is a lot to find out all in one day. Y'know, especially finding out how my father died." Finally, the Sages broke out of the huddle and each walked up to a pack with the corresponding Medallion symbol on it. Link had seen those symbols before, when he learned the history of his family. The Sages stood in a line yet again, with a pack in their hands. Saria started towards Link and undid the pack. Inside it was a bow and a quiver full of arrows. He bowed to her saying thank you with his body. The rest of the Sages did the same thing. Here is the order: from Darunia the Megaton Hammer, from Ruto the Longshot , from Impa the Lens of Truth, and from Nabooru the Mirror Shield. Also from Ruto Link received the Zora Tunic, and from Darunia the Goron Tunic. Zelda stepped up toward him. Zelda handed him a sword in a leather pack, four colored diamonds, three colored stones, an odd shaped instrument, and two boots. Link unwrapped the sword and saw the Master Sword. "The Master Sword!" he screamed "This is amazing! All of my life I've heard of this powerful sword and now I'm holding it in my hands." He then looked at the four diamonds Zelda gave him. He looked at her with an inquisitive look. "Magic spells," she responded, "the red one is Din's Fire, the green one is Farore's Wind, the blue one is Nayru's Love, and the yellow one is Hyrule's Light." She then explained what would happen whenever used the spells. With Din's Fire he could burn things, with Farore's Wind he could transport from one place to another, with Nayru's Love he would get magical armor, and with Hyrule's Light he could blind his enemies. Link smiled, he was about to save the land of Hyrule just like the other Links.
