Disclaimer: I do not own the characters of Zelda.

Author's Note: Hi! This is my first fan fic, so please RR. I will happily accept any flames and advice that you can give me. I would also like to tell everyone that this is an original fan fic that I came up with. It is going to go from when Link is born until he marries. That part was in the summary but nobody was reading the story so I decided to make the summary more interesting. So PLEASE do not tell me "that's not supposed to happen" or "that's not how the story goes". Trust me, I know how the story goes. I've only beat Zelda: OoT a thousand times. I hope you enjoy this!

In the beginning, there was nothing. There was no world and no life. But then, a ray of hope descended upon this nothingness in the form of three beautiful women. But they weren't women either, for their beauty was beyond comparison. They were goddesses. And these goddesses looked upon the nothingness with an eye for what it could become.

The first goddess, the one with red hair and red eyes, looked at her two sisters and smiled smugly. She then descended upon the nothingness and created land. She flew around the foundation that she had created from the nothingness and shaped mountains, hills, and valleys. She then created fire, which dwelt in the heart of her mountains. Her name was Din, and, in legend, she would always be called the Goddess of Power, because she was the first to create something from the nothingness.

When Din returned to her sisters, feeling that no one could create anything like that of what she had just formed, the second sister was smirking. She then flew down, her blue hair and intense blue eyes focused on the task set in front of her. And this goddess created a light source for this new world. She not only created light in the physical sense, but she gave the small world the Light of Order, which included the laws of nature and the laws of humanity that would govern the world. For her doings, she would always be remembered in legends as Nayru, the Goddess of Wisdom. When she was done, Nayru returned to her sisters and gave a polite smile to Din, who gave her sister a sarcastic smile in return.

The last sister, the youngest sister, then looked at the other two sisters with a small, but clear, pout. The two older sisters shook their heads with clear disapproval, but the younger sister descended upon the world nevertheless, her purpose clear to her sisters. She landed in one of the valleys that Din had created and began to chant, her voice growing louder with each incantation. As she spoke, all around her, trees, plants, and animals began to grow. Low places in the land began to feel with water, and the oceans, lakes, and rivers of the world were formed. Something moved the sands of the earth and the plants which she had just formed, and she called this invisible force "wind". She was soon enclosed in a forest as brightly green as her own eyes and hair. She returned to her sisters who gave her a look of obvious irritation. Din looked upon her youngest sister.

We told you that you were not to interfere with anything that we did this day! Din said sullenly.

But this world seemed to be missing something, something I could only give to it, the youngest sister argued, a pout on her small face.

You are too young to understand! Din said resentfully.

You still disobeyed us, but I have to agree with you. This world did need your special "something", but you are still in trouble, Nayru admitted with an annoyed look on her beautiful face. Now we have to look over these living things that you have created.

And that's a bad thing, the sister said, a tone of disbelief in her voice. I was bored anyway.

Oh, alright, Din said, we will need company however. A mate perhaps, it has been six hundred years since I have had one.

I concur, Nayru said with a sly smile. The youngest sister nodded earnestly, a large grin on her face.

And because of the daring that the youngest sister showed this day in disobeying her older sisters, she was always remembered, in all legends, as Farore, the Goddess of Courage.

The sisters then formed mates of their own tastes from nothing, and they settled into the world that they created and started a new race, the Hylian people. These people settled in the valley in which the first seedlings from Farore had begun to grow. The goddesses named this place Hyrule and it was called this by their descendents and their descendents' descendents forevermore. The harmony that the sister goddesses had created blossomed, forming Hyrule's first Golden Age. Over the course of hundreds of years of peace, many different races came about through Farore's work. These races included the Zoras, the Gorons, the Gerudos, the Kokori, and the very spiritually powerful Sheikah. The Hylians, however, became the ruling race of Hyrule and established the realm of Hyrule, along with a king and queen to rule it.

After the goddesses felt that they had served their purpose in their world, they left it, creating another world in the likeness of Hyrule. They called this place the Sacred Realm and eternally bound it to Hyrule. When they entered the Sacred Realm, the goddesses placed an element of themselves in the core of this realm that was to supposedly keep a magical balance in the land of Hyrule. They called it the Triforce. It was a triangle formed from the combination of three smaller triangles, and it contained immense power for those who bore it on their left hand. The goddesses also left a part of themselves and a part of their power in Hyrule, or, more plausibly, in their descendents, because they knew that, one day, Hyrule would come to harm, and a new trio of goddesses, those who had inherited the first goddesses' traits and powers through a direct bloodline, would have to rise to prevent evil from taking over their beloved world.

Author's Note: OK, there's the story and I hope you liked it. I know that the prologue's a little bit boring, but please read the next chapter before you decide that you don't want to read more. The second chapter's a whole lot better. This is just the typical opening chapter that tells about the goddesses. There's still a lot more action to come. Please RR and tell me what you think.
