This is my master story! The one I have been working on for so long! Well, before I get into the prologue, might as well get the disclaimer out of the way…
DISCLAIMER: I do not own Legend of Zelda, but I do own the story line and other stuff.Oh, and for the first chapter, before I do the story, I'd like to thank a couple of people…
Biggorron/My best friend Kyle: Thanks for making the Goron character, and giving me the basic idea for the story idea, and helping me start the story by being the one to send me the Hylian character and giving me someone to talk to between stories.
AlchemistM/Gabby, another good friend: Also thanks for giving me someone to talk to between stories, thanks for the Gerudo and the Deku Scrub characters, and thanks for re-vamping the Zora character when I was busy and couldn't!
Kishazi: Thanks for those reviews, and thanks for E-Mailing me back when I emailed you, and thanks in advance when I need the Sheikah language! ( Which will be very soon. ) Also thanks for sending me the character audition for the Zoran character ( even though it was painstakingly short… )
My Computer chair: For giving in to my demands, and becoming more comfortable! Hah, I win!
Now, prologue…
Link had sealed away Ganon. Zelda and Link had brought a prosperous era to all of Hyrule. This era had lasted nearly a millennia, in which the face of Hyrule has shifted, and changed. New mountain ranges had formed, lakes developed into oceans, and plains became valleys, and forests grew… but now, the well being of this world has been threatened by a new evil, and it wasn't Ganon. It was themselves.
The forests. The place where the small woodland children live, the Kokiri. They hadn't been affected very much by the newly arising racial tensions, but they had been starting them as well. The Kokiri, intimidated by the expanding countries of the seven races around them, had begun to start fights with the other small race that lived close to them within the forests. The Deku. Despite the Deku Tree's orders to be peaceful and live together harmoniously, the Kokiri began to steal land from the Dekus. It all started something like this…
It was another day, the Kokiri had been flourishing, and the size of their small dwelling had expanded to the size of a developing town. The Kokiri Elders had made a peace treaty with the Deku Royal family, that as long as they used their immense magical ability to keep strong forest creatures out of the town, and they wouldn't attack and steal land from them. The treaty lasted about a week, until a group of bandits strolled through the town, raiding and burning. The Kokiri managed to force them back, and ever since, the two have been fighting a private war in the forests.
The Kokiri formed to bands of fighters, Lands Stealers, and Kokiri Defenders, which both did as their names implied. The Land Stealers were extremely quick and agile, and were trained to resist magic attacks, so that they could easily work there way into villages, and take the land without much hassle. Then the Kokiri defenders were trained in defense and offence , wearing actual plate armor fitted for them by a Hylian blacksmith, who was paid rather nicely. The armor was fitted for any normal Kokiri so that if one died on duty, fighting off powerful white wolves, and even once, a Cyclops, they could get a replacement, without the extra cost of more armor. But now, The Deku Tree had finally found the perfect opportunity to settle the problem in the forest and quite possibly the whole world of New Hyrule.
A purple and red fairy floated above a rumpled pile of sheets on a bed that were vaguely human shaped. "Alayna, wake up!" He said, and there was a murmur from the pile of sheets. "Go… screwer-self Raea…" The sheets said, and Raea gathered himself up. " WAKE UP!" He yelled, flying full force into the lump of sheets, and the pile of sheets jumped and fell of the bed. A head poked out from the sheets. Alayna had loose curly brown hair that reached around her shoulders and a pair of deep blue eyes.
"Happy now?" She groaned, brushing off her green Kokiri dress and throwing her sheets back onto the bed. "Whadded you wan?" She mumbled, rubbing her eyes. Raea floated around her. "You've achieved a great honor! The Great Deku tree wants to speak to you!" He said as enthusiastically a fairy could say it. Her eyes opened wide. Last time any Great Deku Tree called upon a Kokiri was with Link… She said, walking over to shelf over her bed, and grabbed a oaken short bow, a back up dagger which she kept on her waist horizontally behind her back for last ditch attacks. She then strapped on her small oaken bucker and walked down the ladder, and left her tree house home. She looked at the carving on the base of the tree and began to walk through the small town towards the Deku Tree's glade.
A coincidence that I live in Link's house, maybe? I dunno, maybe… She thought as she walked towards where Mido, the town's eldest, who had been alive since Link had been around, stood guard over the entrance to the Deku Trees glade. He still looked young, but his eyes told a different story. He stopped her. "I know you have weapons to protect yourself, but I'd like to say something." He said, and she nodded. " Yes?" She said politely, and he nodded. "Well, as you might've known, the last person to be called on by The Deku tree was Link…" And She nodded. "We're all expecting great things from you." He and, and then he let her pass.
She walked through the beaten path that had been rarely used, barely ever. She made it to the glade. When she got there, she sat on the top of the hill that lead down to the Deku Tree. "You wanted me great Deku Tree?" She said to the great tree. The wood twisted into a smile. "Ah, Alayna!" He rumbled, and then, the smile crumpled into a frown. "It's obvious, that you have felt it too?" He and Alayna gave him a questioning look, and held her silence.
"The dreams, the ominous cloud of evil hovering over the land of Hyrule?" He asked, and her eyes widened and she nodded. The Deku tree allowed a short smile. "That is why you have not been using your voice as much. The dark dreams you have, of destruction, and death, and a great evil have caused you to think and that all that thinking has disabled you from speaking as much as you used to." He said, and Alayna wrapped her hand around her throat. " Is… is it Ganon? Did he escape?" And The Deku tree frowned. "No. Do not worry yourself with the ominous cloud of evil. It is the war between the people of Hyrule that you must stop from fighting. The world has begun to erupt into discord, and the people have begun to fight each other over every last thing between them…"
"What do you want me to do?" Alayna asked eagerly, seeming to find her voice. "I want you to help settle the disputes between the races, and then, everyone must unite or fall to a new evil." And he stopped talking. "Who's the evil?" And The Deku tree stood expressionless. "Unite or fall. Unite or fall. That is all I have to say. Start here in the forests, and then work your way out. It's the only way. Unite or fall." And The Deku Tree said nothing more, but to the right of him, the foliage seemed to part, creating a pathway. "Go, begin to help the races. Start with the Dekus. You will meet a Deku named Onaka as you travel, do not push him away; he is part of the grand plan. Accept him, and unite the races." And Alayna walked towards this newly shown path, and looked back on the forest she had grown up in, and then pressed on towards the marshes.
Next Chapter: They want him to be what he is not.
