B PRELUDE /B

I Ganondorf Dragmire was standing before the King of Hyrule with an unfamiliar glint in his eye. It was hard to describe his expression. It was a fake and foreign smile; one that was looking to decieve and please. His eyes flashed with malevolence and greed as he continued to talk with the King about their pending alliance. Zelda was frustrated with her mother and father, for they did not seem to understand that this man sadisticly wished harm upon them. Princess Zelda of Hyrule saw prophecies in her dreams, and her most recent one was bothering her. Darkness and evil swarmed around Hyrule until a beam of light shot out of the forest and a Kokiri boy with an emerald and a fairy appeared. Zelda was almost one-hundred percent sure that this man represented the evil in her prophetic dreams. The only one who actually believed her was her Sheikah guardian and friend, Impa.

The Sheikah were an ancient race of warriors. They were sworn protectors of the Hyrule royal family. The Sheikah kept to themselves and the shadows, never being noticed unless they wished to be. However, this grand race was rapidly disappearing. Impa was one of the last remaining, and she herself did not know where the remainder of her people hid. With Hyrule being at peace, there was hardly any need for them at all. After all, they were warriors born of the warrior spirit. Sitting around made them understandably restless.

Princess Zelda and Impa had both been have a very powerful premonition of danger ever since King Ganondorf of the Gerudo Clan from the West. Something bad was going to happen, and it was going to happen all too soon. Princess Zelda's life was about to change forever, and they both knew it. /I
