The Legend of Kail
Prologue
Link sped over Hyrule Field Epona carrying him easily over the familiar territory. The blanket of stars and bright moon above offered enough light for them to keep traveling even through the depths of the night. It had been 6 months since Ganondorf had fallen and the land had returned to a state of peace. As Lonlon ranch passed by Link slowed Epona to a walk, he wanted to get back to the castle and see his love but no sense in killing his good mare in the process. He closed his eyes and breathed deeply knowing Epona knew the way home as well as he. His mind wandered back over the last few months. The defeating of Ganondorf, colleting men to help him purge the land of the last of the monsters, checking to see if the Zora's had returned and getting the alliance of the people in the desert all seemed like a dream to him. All his men had returned to the city or Kakariko village where ever their home may be for Link knew he couldn't take a band of 30 or so men tramping through Kokiri forest and to the Deku tree. He wasn't entirely sure if he could handle being king of Hyrule. He remembered when his only troubles were being the only child in the Lost Woods without a fairy. Now that he had a whole kingdom to look after he questioned if that boy could possibly know what would have to be done to keep the peace and make sure the people were content. Before he left the castle Zelda had told him she knew that he would be the greatest king the land had ever seen and he knew that as long as he strived to be a king worthy of a queen like her he couldn't stray too far from the right path. It was times like these he missed the practical advice of his former fairy, Navi, who had stayed with the Deku tree. Shouts from above roused him from his thoughts and he subconsciously reached for his sword. He realized Epona had stop moving and was waiting patiently for the guards to finish lowering the drawbridge.
"Good to see your back Highness!" Called one of the guards as he passed beneath them. He gave them a friendly smile and a salute as they began to draw the bridge back up behind him. The sound of Epona's hooves echoed loudly on the cobble stones in the empty market. The zombies that had roamed the area not too long ago had returned to their human state when Ganondorf had died and the spell on them was broken but at this time of night all the shops were closed up and the people in bed. As the towers of the castle silhouetted in front of the bright stars peaked over the hill he reined Epona to a stop. A smile spread across his face as he pictured his beautiful wife-to-be asleep in their chambers. All doubts he had in himself vanished with all other worries as he kicked Epona into a gallop towards Zelda, his love, his hope and the only thing he could think of right then.
