Interspecies Hero

by Lord Ganondorf

Link has entered the Interspecies Reviewer, and has no clue what the heck he has gotten himself into. People are confused as to why he and Zel look identical, and Link is confused as to Why the Din he wants to punch people with who make strange faces he can't describe. Also, Meidori is on the warpath to keep the two innocent characters, innocent. RIP Stunk and Zel butts.

2. Enter Links History

Now, this is not a true chapter in the sense it moves the story along. I mostly copied and pasted this from my Child of The Moon story, mostly so I can move on, and have it explained. I know no one is going to like a Copy paste from another story, but I want to show HOW different Link is from the Canon version, and show it. To be honest, 99% of this chapter IS flashback, explaining his life before the story. I will add and change things, just to make it have sense, but other than that, I WILL post a real chapter (By real, I mean a chapter that actually is current, and isn't basically a rehash. Quickly, Meidori is the POV, but for the most part, think of a flashback that happens, from one POV, but with the other POV happening at the same time.

This chapter is going to bloat the words beyond belief. If you don't wish to read it, it isn't totally necessary, as only a few sections are needed to understand Link. If you don't wish to read it, and just want the simple version, skip to the bottom of the page.

Flashback is the pure Italics, or 99.9% of this chapter, and the word bloat for this story.

In Meidori's Room

I can't help it. Listening to Link's tale, and keep rewinding it in my head. I know I should be sleeping, but it just keeps rolling through my head. What Link went through, is pure nightmarish. I don't think ANYONE in this world, Heaven or Hell included, could have the ability to handle what he did, not even God Herself.

"Now, the story I will start with is my first Adventure. I believe it is a good place to start my story." Link says. "Now, it starts when I first met my fairy Navi. She was a fairy that... was a bit dull but had a kind and well-meaning heart the longer I got to know her." I say, explaining everything up to when the Great Deku Tree died, with the explanation of what he represented to the Kokiri, which was a father figure in all aspects. After I finish says that the great Deku Tree died, gifting me the Kokiri Emerald on his last moments, I give a sad look at this, while Stunk and Zel look at me with looks I am unsure of.

"So, is that the end of the first adventure?" I ask still looking sad, with Stunk, Zel, and Crim looking on curiously.

"I wish honestly. But that's just the first third of the beginning of the adventure. It doesn't get much better after that. With a few exceptions. Do you wish for me to continue?" I ask politely, as talking and explaining my adventure seems to be helping me, in some way. I don't know why though, but it's like a weight is slowly being lifted off my shoulder.

"After I finished mourning over the Great Deku Tree, I left and was stopped by my childhood bully, who only made the situation child me had just dealt with worse, insinuating that I caused the Great Deku Trees death, which really, really hurt. He eventually stormed off, and I just ran out of the main section of the forest, and was stopped by my childhood friend, who just asked if the Great Deku Tree did in fact die. The tears I had at the time must have told her, and she tried to comfort me over it. Before I left the bridge area, Saria gave me her Ocarina, the Fairy Ocarina." At that, I pull out the Fairy Ocarina, which looks like it was in the same condition it was carved in, which was new. "While later in the story, I was forced to stop using this one for reasons, I never got rid of it. It meant too much to me, even to this day." I say, and then explaining my run through Hyrule field, and barley making it over the bridge before the day was turned to night, and quickly explaining the dangers of being stuck in the fields, ran up to the castle, and eventually meet the Princess, who sent me with a letter to go up Death Mountian, and get the Goron Ruby from the Gorons, to be able to continue on in my quest, in saving Hyrule and stopping the Evil King.

Eventually, after I finish off my explanation of the Goron City, the race of what they are exactly, learning Saria's Song, and what I did to help the Gorons, finalizing it on learning a magic sword technique, and returning to Kakoriko village, running to Hyrule Castle and learning a powerful magic called Din's Fire, which is just a dome of fire.

I then move on to explaining everything about the Zora, the river they controlled, and the side quest I finished of mask selling, I explored the area around Jabu Jabu, and got a spell that had to functions called Farore's Wind, and eventually entered Jabu Jabu, which we got a bit of a laugh at until I explained that it wasn't all fun and games due to being inside a living organism that could have made me it's shit, which they quieted down, and I went on with the story up until the giving back of the Zora Sapphire. "Now, I am going to clarify the next part, as it IS necessary to understand. Due to me not having the understanding of the way communication, spoken and unspoken among the world happened at the time, I didn't know what an engagement ring was, but I accepted the Sapphire because it was necessary at the time of my quest, which the reason will soon roll its ugly head in. I eventually learned what it mean, and explained that I could do it, mainly due to my lack of understanding of it at the time, and that I needed it for a good reason. Nothing else." I say, before finishing up my interaction with Princess Ruto, learning the Sun's Song, and Epona's Song, both for something later, and my return to Hyrule Castle, and my first encounter with Ganondorf what was face to face. Needless to say, I was lucky he was more amused by me more than anything, and he knew what Zelda was up to with me.

"Now, Zelda threw this into the moat, near the entrance." I say, pulling out a blue ocarina. "This, is the Ocarina of Time. A relic of a time long ago to the Royal Family, and a very, very powerful relic as well. The power, is used more in the second adventure, with some signs in the first. It's the Ocarina I came to use, for the rest of this adventure, and the entirety of the next with a simple song called the Song of Time." I explain, before putting it back away, and continuing on, until I drew the Master Sword, which I draw from it's sheath. "This, is the Sword I pulled. This is the Master Sword. It's also the Relic that makes my first Adventure go from understandable to a fucking mess." I say, and explain that I was sealed away for seven years, which is where the adventure becomes a damn convoluted mess.

A minute after that, and I explain that it gets weirder after that.

With that, I start off when I woke up seven years in the future, to meeting Rauru, the ancient Light Sage, and him telling me what has transpired since I pulled the Master Sword and went to a forced sleep. After that, and receiving the Light Medallion, I am returned to the Temple of Time, where it looks the same, just darker, so I take a few steps away from the pedestal that held the Master Sword, and meet Sheik, who basically just repeated Rauru in some aspects, but told me what I had to do. I had to head to 5 temples, and awaken the sages there to gain the ability to stop Ganondorf from taking over the entire world. After teaching me the Prelude of Light, she just stands guard at the pedestal that held the Master Sword, saying I had to save the Sage of the Forest, before I could return to the past.

After I leave the Temple of Time, I find that the town is completely destroyed, and when I enter what was once the main hub, to be filled with Redead. Instead of fighting them, I headed to what was once Hyrule Castle, to find it is now Ganon's Tower. A big black tower, that took up where Hyrule Castle once stood. After leaving, I first went to Lon Lon Ranch, where I got my trusty steed, Epona, after beating an arrogant, but hard-working guy in a race, rode to Kakariko village and learned the Song of Storms, which I will get back onto at the end of this portion of the story, get the hookshot, and starting a chain quest that would get me for at the time, my strongest sword in terms of power, then going to the forest I grew up in, Kokiri Forest.

When I entered the tunnel that goes into the Lost Woods, on the very bridge that Saria stopped me on, I noticed an atmosphere change instantly. It was like the very air of the Forest screamed danger, to all those that lived in it and traveled through it. So I cautiously entered Kokiri Forest, and what I saw in it, enraged me, and horrified me. My Home, for my entire life that I was aware of, was under the control of monsters. Luckily none of the Kokiri were dead, but I couldn't find Mido or Saria. After asking the Kokiri where the two were, I found out that Saria went to the Forest Temple, and Mido was guarding the path to it. I go and enter the Lost Woods, where I am quickly forced to continue the side quest, and return, and get a lumberman's ax, and following the path to the Sacred Forest Meadow, where it is patrolled by giant pig monsters, who I have to kill with the HookShoot.

Eventually, I reach the Forest Temples entrance, where I meet Sheik, after sometime talk about the flow of time, she teaches me the Minuet of Forest, to return to the entrance of the Forest Temple in the future. After leaving, I use the Hookshot to enter the Forest Temple.

Entering the Forest Temple, I could tell just by the Atmosphere it was different to the other dungeon I have been through so far. I am greeted by two Wolfos, which I quickly kill, and climb up a vine, and find a small chest, that I open to find a key, which I end up picking up quite a bit later. After going through a small tunnel, I enter a room and see an elevator, surrounded by four torches of different color. Red, Blue, Green, and Purple. When I take a step to go to the Elevator, four poes, which are ghosts, take the fires, and seals off the elevator, and leave to four different portions of the temple.

So I go through the temple, gathering keys, solving puzzles, and fight a creature called a Stalfos, which I will explain later, and finding the first Poe, who I cant fight. The Poe sisters, as I find out what they are called later, hide in paintings and portraits to escape having to be beaten by me, so I am forced to move on, and fight three stalfos, first, one on its own, then two fighting together, and I eventually beat the both of them. Doing that reveals a big chest, that holds the first bow I ever used, the Fairy Bow. Picking it up, I did a few test shots, which were not that good, but quickly picking up on how it works when compared to the Slingshot I used as a kid, I returned to the Red Poes room, and forced it to reveal itself, and beat it, returning one of the flames to the elevator room. The room past the Stalfos room, help the blue flamed Poe, which I quickly beat, and moved on.

Reaching a room with a hole on the wall, and twisty turny room's I quickly head back to the first one I encountered and righted it, to get a chest that looked far nicer than any other chest has looked so far, and revived a strange-looking key. More backtracking and some new rooms, I eventually reach the room that the Green flamed Poe held, and doing a quick puzzle of pushing block together, harder than it sounds, as the puzzle blocks were taller than me, and if I didn't complete it in a time limit, they all flipped, I eventually revealed the Green flamed Poe, and beat it.

Because the next room was a short tunnel that leads to the main room, I encountered the Purple flamed Poe, who was crying. I went up to it, and it spoke. "All my Sisters have returned to the Afterlife. I am the last one remaining. Ganondorf used dark magic to bring us back, to serve as an obstacle to you, and tortured our souls by binding us here. You freed three of us to return to our peaceful afterlife. As a thank you, I can tell you our names, before I make my final request. In order of the ones you returned, our names were Joelle, Beth, Amy, and the one left, is Meg. I can't make it easy for me due to the magic holding me here, but please, help me return to my sisters, and let me go back to a peaceful slumber of the Afterlife." Meg asks, in a pleading tone. She then splits into four of herself. "I am sorry, but forgive me for having to fight you, Link." Meg finishes, then after about three shots, as she made it possible to find the real one quickly, she was beaten, and the purple flame returned to the torch, but her soul stayed.

"Thank you Link. Thank you for saving all four of us. I am only staying to tell you this, no matter what, the ones who are no longer with us, watch you, even in death. Whether you knew them or not, they watch over you." Meg says, before fading away, to the afterlife. I didn't know what to think, but I noticed a weird feeling on my face, and found tears on it.

After gathering my composure, I entered the elevator, and after doing some pushing and pulling, and finally came face to face with the boss door. The door was locked with a symbol quite like the key I found earlier, so I used it, and it worked. The lock removed itself and I entered the room.

I enter the Boss room, to find the door locks behind me, and all that is in the room is six paintings, and a singular arena with a short wall on the six sides, except the entrance to it. So, with only one option I could do, I go up into the arena, and to no surprise, a wall of spikes shoot up, and I turn around to be faced with I first assumed to be Ganondorf on his horse. He then smirks and brings his hand to his face and pulls it off to reveal a skull with horns and summons a spear in his hand and jumps into a painting.

To sum up the first phase of the battle, Phantom Ganon, as it was called, jumps in and out of paintings, one or two fakes in different paintings, and a real one coming out of one, and unleashing a bolt of lightning on one of the three Triforce pieces, which I also will explain at the end, and after about 10 arrow shot's, seven of them either were misses or at the fakes, Phantom Ganon stayed behind, and the horse enters a painting, never to return.

The second phase was harder than the first, as Phantom Ganon now-fired energy blasts that could be reflected back at him, or a charge attack right at me. Eventually, Phantom Ganon was beaten, but not before Ganondorf says over a telepathic voice "Hey kid, you did quite well... It looks like you might be gaining some slight skill. But you have only defeated my phantom. When you fight the real me, it won't be so easy! What a worthless creation that ghost was! I will banish it to the gap between dimension!" he said, as the phantom is sent through a dark portal, which I assume is the gap between dimensions.

After that, I am warped to the Sage pedestal where I meet Rauru, but I am facing the Forest symbol, and Saria comes out of it. She talks about how we are great friends, and goodbye for now, as she must stay here, but take the Forest Medallion, for awakening her. After I get it, she says goodbye for now, and hopefully, we will see each other again in another period of time.

I am warped back to the Kokiri Forest, in front of the remains of the Great Deku Tree, and what looks like a sprout growing in front of it. I go up to it and investigate, and the sprout quickly turns into a baby tree! I find out real quick that it is the rebirth of the Great Deku Tree, though as a sprout, so Great Deku Sprout. It tells me how I came to the forest, explains why I grew up, and what my mother did to bring me here to her. He took me because he sensed the mark of destiny in me. He then thanked me for saving the Forest, but my job isn't done yet. I must save Hyrule and stop Ganondorf!

After that, I teleport back to the Temple of Time, and talk to Sheik, who lets me gain access to the pedestal that held the Master Sword, explaining that returning it, would allow me to return to the past. She leaves, and I return it, to go to the past and do a few things that I wanted to do in the past.

"And that's the end of that section of the story. Now I said I would explain a few things, like the Song of Storms for example. The Song of Storms has a couple of powers, one is self-explanatory, which just summons a storm. But, the power of it depends on how much I put into it, emotion, and power speaking. A normal play of it just makes a regular thunderstorm, but when I am full emotion pushing and putting my full power into it, it has the capability to create a storm so powerful, it could destroy a continent. Now I never did that, but at half capacity for it, it nearly destroyed an area a large as Termina. The second ability, which comes in handy in the second adventure, is the ability to heal curses and help purify negative emotions, mentalities, and heal those that suffer from a horrible mentality. Not to be confused with another song that can heal physical and most emotional pains, which I learn in my second adventure. Now, the Triforce. The Triforce is the symbol of my lands Three Golden Goddesses, each one comparable to Chaos, who created Hyrule, and a few worlds connected to it. The Triforce is split into three pieces. Power, Wisdom, and Courage. Ganondorf wields the Triforce of Power, as I said earlier. I won't say who wields the piece of Wisdom and Courage, but each one gives it's wielder some form of boost or power. But when all three are combined, it can grant any wish the wielder wants, as far as I am aware." Link explains to Stunk, Zel, Crim, and me.

I talk about how I went back to Kakariko Village and going to where I learned the Song of Storms and played it. It causes a storm to happen, no surprise, but reveals an entrance at the bottom of the well. Needless to say, it was a quick exploration, as I just looked for what I thought was needed, which turned out at the end, to be an item called the Lens of Truth. After getting that, and exploring every inch of the creepy shit that was the Bottom of the Well, I left, never to return to it. I then went and just looked around the past, finding things stuff I didn't find originally. But, it wasn't worth much, so I returned to the future and headed to the Gorons home, Goron City.

When I arrived at it, it was nearly empty, minus a single, young goron rolling around the middle ring of the city. After placing a bomb down, and shooting it with an arrow when it got right next to it, setting the bomb off, and stopping the goron's rolling, which it shouted after that "How could you do this to me? You, you're Ganondorf's servant! Hear my name and tremble! I am Link! Hero of the Gorons!" Link, the goron says. I just walk up to him, and explain I am Link. He uncurls and is excited to meet me, only to remember what the situation was, which he started sobbing about. A sobbing goron is the weirdest, the saddest sounding thing I have ever heard.

Eventually, I calmed him down by getting him to explain what happened, which he goes to explain that Ganondorf took the Gorons, and locked them in the Fire Temple, and reviving the ancient dragon killed long ago, Volvagia, and planned on feeding the goron people to it. I just look on horrified, yet I had a strange feeling about it. He then said that Darunia went into the Temple, to stop the Dragon. After that, the doors to Darunia's room, and the shop open, but Link the Goron, gives me the Goron Tunic, which he said would let me go into places like Death Mountain Crater, and not even be bothered by the Heat, which to this days has confused me on who it worked.

After entering the crater through the not so secret entrance behind the statue in Darunia's room, I enter the crater, walk to a broken bridge, that is intact on the others side, so I hookshot to it. When I arrive, Sheik appears, says a few Time quotes, and teaches me the Bolero of Fire, to let me teleport quickly to Death mountain if I ever need to. I then enter the Fire Temple, through a steep hole with a ladder.

My first steps into the temple, and I already killed a few monsters, and enter through the only door I could, and run into Darunia. He explains after recognizing me, that even though he doesn't have the hammer that let his ancestor kill Volvagia, he was at least going to keep it sealed in the mountain. He enters the room before I tell him to wait, and it closes. I just sighed, in worry and sadness, before looking around the room to see a cage with a terrified Goron in it. A few easy jumps later, I open the door, and the goron uncurls and says this to me.

"Darunia doesn't know, but Ganondorf already fed Volvagia half of the Goron Population and the big Goron that rolled around the middle ring. With you, they will be able to escape alive, but Darunia needs help. You need to help the others, and save our Big Brother!" The Goron says, before leaving the room. I quickly grab the key and leave.

Over the entire temple, I run into monsters I never seen before, freeing gorons who tell me more about the temple, and getting the Megaton hammer, and finally, reaching the boss room. When I enter, I notice immediately the remains of at least a dozen Gorons, and a giant goron. I don't see any that are fresh, assuming Darunia was rescued or escaped before anything serious could happen to him. When I step on the rock island, the room starts shaking, and out comes the dragon, Volvagia. It looked like it was a snake that could fly without wings.

It flew around for a bit and breathed some fire before going back under the Rock. I just stayed in place, watching to see if Volvagia would pop out again, and it did. It popped out and started flying again, but this time at me, and it was going faster than I would have thought, and knocked me flat down, but I quickly rolled out of the way before it could use one of its claws, which broke a chick of the stone island, which told me a lot. I realized I need to stay on guard with this monster, and I fired some arrows at its face, testing it out to see if it would help. It kinda did, just instead of helping, it pissed Volvagia of, and breathed out a massive amount of flame, covering half the rock island in a fire, which goes out pretty quickly.

Over the next five minutes, Volvagia was readying to breathe fire, when I tested my luck and fired an arrow into its mouth. The arrow seemed to do something, as the dragon started thrashing around for a minute before going back under the lava. Five seconds later, Volvagia comes out roaring in anger and flies right at me, and I roll out of the way. Volvagia hit the rock island I was on really hard, stunning it for a few seconds, giving me time to hit it with the megaton hammer, and getting some good hits on it. Volvagia recovers roars at me, then reentered the lava.

A minute passes, and the dragon comes out of the lava, with a live Goron. It takes me a second to realize that, and fire three arrows at Volvagia to get it to drop the Goron, which the arrows hit an eye, the mouth again, and the arm holding the Goron. Volvagia in pain drops the Goron, who stares at me for a second, then makes a run for the boss door, but as the Goron gets about half way, Volvagia catches it, with me firing arrows, at it, and grabs the Goron, and bites the Goron in half with ease! I continue firing the arrows at the dragon, that just bounce off, as it devours the Goron's other half, and seems to get a little stronger. The Dragon roars at me and flies at me again.

This time, I was ready due to the gap. I jump to the side and swing the Megaton hammer on its face, with all the anger I could muster, after watching the Goron get killed and eaten like that. The hammer connected and made the dragon stop in its tracks, and I just pounded at it. Slam after slam, I kept going until the dragon regain enough ability to move, and fly away. But it was vastly slower than before, being severely injured from the multiple slams of the Megaton hammer on its skull. So it buried itself under the lava for 30 seconds, until it re-emerged, and flew at me, which I jump to the side again, and hit it with the Megaton Hammer, once again in the face with all the rage I could gather, and when it once again stops, I smash it's head as hard as I could with the Hammer, breaking of multiple chunks of the rock island, but beating the Dragon.

The Dragon starts flying away from me, back into the lava. I wait, unsure of what was going to happen, when it flies out of the lava in a erratic flight pattern, before the tail end of it just starts exploding off, slowly reaching the head, until the head just lands in the center of the rock island formation, just breathing, until it slowly gets consumed by the lava I threw it in. It was slowly melting, and I watched on with a sort of sadistic glee, as I avenged the gorons it killed and consumed, in the name of Ganondorf.

After the last of it melts into the lava, I am whisked into the chamber that the sages are in. Looking in the area of the Fire sage, who slowly reveals itself to be Darunia, who has a look between happiness, sadness, and a bit of worry.

"Link. Thank you for beating the foul dragon. Be glad it wasn't able to consume enough Gorons to unleash its full power, else my seal wouldn't have held, and all but Ganon's Castle would be covered in flames. Link, you are a true brother for the gorons, and we will remember you for so long as we are alive. Keep the Megaton hammer, and don't fret, for it will stay with you in the past due to my blessing I just placed on it. You won't be able to wield it as a kid, but it will come in great handy for you in the future, I will vet. Take the Fire Medallion, and save Hyrule! Beat that son of a bitch Ganondorf Link! Do it for all those that are in need, and for those who fell because of that monster!' Darunia says, then shouts at the end. I get the Fire Medallion then I am whisked back to the Death Mountain Crater. "Oh Link, I am telling you this, that there is a Great Fairy in the crater, wishing to meet you. Normally we aren't allowed to do this, but I realized that you wouldn't know of this, so I am letting you know so you can go to her. Remember, we all have your back Link!" Darunia tells me telepathically, and before I reenter Goron City, I look around for a little bit, and I do find a boulder than looks massive, so I test the Megaton Hammer on it, and it breaks in two swings.

I enter the fountain and get my magic doubled up, which comes in handy later. After that, I enter Goron City and find all the Gorons partying, with rock banners everywhere with my name and the word hero next to it. The Goron's all thank me, and say if I want to get the Biggoron Sword, Biggoron was told that the City would wave the payment itself, but I still would have to get a hilt suitable for it. The gorons told that a lumberjack has a hilt suitable for it, as he broke it recently, but hasn't had the time to get it fixed. I asked if they knew where he east at the moment, and they pointed out the Gerudo Valley. I thank them, stay for a bit to help them clean up, and go on to the Gerudo valley, to give the Lumberjack his ax, for the Biggoron sword hilt, which I get, and return to see Biggoron, who said that the previous mountain eruption, which happened after I beat Volvagia, happened, it irritated his eyes, and now he needed eye drops, which King Zora had. He asked me to get them, which I agreed to and headed to Zora Domain.

As I reached the middle of Zora River, I noticed the snow. Something wasn't right here, and the fact that snow was falling in the middle of summer on the hottest week so far, and there is falling snow, puts me on guard instantly. As I reach the waterfall, which is falling like normal, I play Zelda's Lullaby to allow me passage, which works as normal. But as I enter Zora's Domain, I am hit with a blast of cold air, and I see it completely frozen over, horrifying me. Not one Zora I could find, and I hoped to the Golden Goddesses that it wasn't a Fire Temple all over again.

As I slowly walk through it, I take note that what made up the shop hole was covered in some odd red ice. After that, I finally reach where the Zora Throne Room, which I see King Zora, enclosed in the same red ice. I go up to him, and the red ice, and tap on it. It is like hitting something soft, like grass, but at the same time, as hard as well, ice. So, I just move to where Jabu Jabu lived, and once in there, I find a giant iceberg where Jabu Jabu once swam, or just floated, not sure on that, and I notice more icebergs floating around. So I just hop to each one to a cave, to find it is a mini-dungeon.

I explore the dungeon I call the Ice Cavern, mainly due to all the ice, snow, and slippery ground, and ice enemies. Going through it, I find more of that weird red ice, that I can't do anything about, so I just go through the one available room, which leads to a big cave with a single chest covered in the red ice, and a blue flame pedestal. I bottle up the blue flame, to see if it can remove the red ice on the chest, which it does. I bottle up as much of it as I can, as I have four bottles at this point, and go through the cavern using them, and replacing them just as much. I eventually reach a room with a big White Wolfos, which I slay just as easily as a regular Wolfos. A chest appears, and I open it to get the Iron Boots.

After that, Sheik appears and compares the Flow of Time to a River. Which I kinda agree with. Then teaches me the Serenade of Water, which will transport me to Lake Hylia, and leaves. I go through the little pool in the room, and find it is a shortcut back to the entrance and leave the dungeon.

I return to Zora's Domain, and with the two remaining bottles having some blue fire, I empty one on King Zora, who is revived for all purposes, and thanks me with the Zora Tunic, which lets me breathe underwater with no problem. I quickly go to the Zora shop, unice it, check on the shop keeper, then return to King Zora to request the Eye Drops, which he says I don't have them, but the ingredients are available to him, and there is a doctor in Lake Hylia that can make the Eye Drops, and to hurray to him, and warns me that the ingredients, and by extension the eye drops, are very delicate to high-level magic, which I know is the teleportation songs due to some trial and error, and reach Lake Hylia for the Eye Drops to be made.

I explain to the doctor that the Eye Frog is not for dinner, but for eye drops, which he looks disappointed in, but makes them for me, and I get back on Epona, and ride to Death Mountain, to give Biggoron the Eye Drops, and I get the Biggoron sword Claim stone. I played the Sun's Song about 8 times, just in case, and lo and behold, the Biggoron sword was done. I give it a few test swings and find it is definitely a two-handed sword, which weakened my defense, was definitely a great offensive tool when needed.

Playing the Serenade of Water, I return to Lake Hylia and putting on the Zora Tunic, and Iron Boots, I jump into the shallow lake and open up the door to the Water Temple.

After entering the temple, and removing the Iron Boots, for temporarily, I look around and explore the parts above the water, which isn't much, and slowly explore the underwater parts, which I nab the Dungeon map, and eventually run into Princess Ruto, who is all flustered about me not remembering the promise behind Zora's Sapphire, which I still had no clue on what she meant, and after telling me that all the Zora's were frozen beneath the Ice in Zora's Domain, which I was hoping wasn't the case, and basically tells me to follow her, which I do, but when I reach the top of the flooded room, she is missing.

The only area I think she would have gone was in the next room, which I enter, and only monsters were in it. So I looked everywhere I could through the temple, keeping an eye out for Ruto when I eventually reach a room with a very shallow pool of water. But the odd thing in the room is that when I got near the pool, a near-perfect reflection of me appeared in the water, in an unnatural angle. So I explore every inch of the room, minus the island and other door, and found nothing. So I explore the island, which is pretty small, with a single dead tree, and nothing is on it. But as soon as I leave the island, the reflection is gone, but I head to the door that I didn't enter from, but it is locked. And the door I entered from is locked, so I just turn around, and barely make out a shadowy form on the island I came from, just standing there, looking at me with a strange look.

"Who... Who are you?" I ask the shadow, who responds with "I, I am you. I am the you that was created from your negative emotions when you entered this room. I am Dark Link, the master of the Mirrored Room." Dark Link says.

"What do you want?" I ask.

Dark Link just laughs, but says "What I want? I want for nothing, except for those who enter this room to face themselves and learn from the toughest teacher they could ever face. Themselves. I am not a creation of Ganondorf, I am not created by any evil being, and at most, I am just a reflection of your mind and inner thoughts. I was created to test those who enter, for one reason only. To make them see the true side of their thoughts, whether they thought it themselves or not. I am not evil by nature, I merely represent the evil side of a sentient being. You though, were harder to do, but I only know what you know, and anything about this room. Including how to trick it. To be frank with you, "Hero", I have no wish to fight. I know you have no wish to fight, leaving us at an impasse. Should we fight, nothing other than you dying, or me being destroyed temporarily will happen. But, in order to leave, I must be defeated. It won't be easy if you are ready, as I am you in every way."

"I... I will fight." I say, only wishing to end the madness of this room's events. Dark Link just nods in understanding and gets in a fighting pose. I reflect on it as well.

We walk slowly to each other, sword and shield up, and our swords clash, time and time again, each clang echoing in the seemingly endless room. Minutes go by, the two of us clashing, trading blows, injuring each other, slowly but surely, being worn down in the fight. But what ends the battle in my favor, was when I used Din's Fire at an unexpected moment, causing untold damage to Dark Link.

"I will admit Link, you did well. But you can't beat your darkness." Dark Link says.

"I know. You can only acknowledge that it is a part of you, but you can't let it fester and grow. You can only deal with it in the correct way." I say back, then, putting away my weapons, walk up to Dark Link, who also put away his weapons.

"So you know what must be done?" Dark Link says. I stick my hand out, and Dark Link lets out a laugh, though one of good nature. "I will admit, most would just try and put me out of my misery, or try at least, but you, you solved the true way to conquer your inner darkness. Acceptance. I am you, and you are me. We are one being, and to try and subdue it is idiotic. But, as the Hero, I can't exist, so long as you live." Dark Link says, after grasping my hand for a shake, then taking his other hand, and stabbing himself in the stomach, still holding my hand. "Since you are holding my hand, the room considers it you ending me. Do not be upset. While we may have known each other for a short amount of time, about ten minutes maybe, you proved to the room you are a true hero, in more ways than one. You have shown that you will go and stop evil, and understanding that you are not a perfect being. Take this. It is proof of our engagement, and that the Room and I, believe that you are worthy of the title of Hero, even if you do not wish for the title. It will stay with you, even if you travel back in time, due to this Room being a creation outside of Time's rule, in a sense." Dark Link says, handing to me his cap, which is pure black, as he slowly fades away, the hat stays in my hand, which I put in my bag, for safekeeping.

The room fades from a shallow pond to a simple chamber, in essence of the rest of the Temple, but the feeling of it is the same as before, waiting for the next person to test their worth in its gaze.

I get the Longshot, and travel through the remaining portion of the Water Temple, and finishing any remaining puzzles, and getting any Keys, and finally grabbing the Boss Key before I move on to the Boss Room, which I eventually reach.

In the Boss Room, I see four pillars in it, with a pool of unnatural looking water in between the main area, and the four pillars. I jump to one of the Pillars, and the Boss rears its head? It doesn't have a head, more of a small brain like thing, but the problem is, is that there are multiple, and they all control the water in such a way, that tentacles can form and swing me away like a leaf in the middle of a tornado. I quickly jump back, and use the Longshot on one of the ball things, which I get and just attack my sword with, and it takes some damage before jumping back in and sitting in the center of the pool.

I do this five more times, before they all fuse, to make a giant ball, that forces the room to become massive, with a pool about the size of a decent-sized house, and the depth of a hundred feet. The boss uses the entire pool to create dozens of water tentacles, some with lightning flowing through them, some don't, all aiming to grab me. I try to use the Longshot on the ball, but it doesn't work, as it is too heavy compared to me. So I am forced to dodge it for a bit, before I realize that I still have the Iron Boots, which I put on, and use the Longshot on the ball again, and the idea works. It is pulled to me, and I start swinging at it, causing damage, which it jumps back in, and creates a wave that is electrified at me, which I am forced to jump over with the Longshot, before it shoots a stream of at water at where I Longshotted at, which I avoid thanks to the Iron Boots increasing my weight, but I also had the feeling if that had hit, I would be dead no questions asked.

I do this for another 20 minutes, just pulling it out, avoiding death waves and streams, until it roars somehow, and the water freezes, which the ball cracks open, and unleashes a new opponent. A monster that forces it's way through the ice. A monster with a lizard tail but made of ice for a lower body, and an upper body of a Hylian female, a very pretty one, and charges at me. I quickly remove my Iron boots, and jump above its charge, as it hits the wall, before turning around, and charging at me again. I am ready this time, and jump over, before firing a few arrows at it, making it roar in anger, before taking some of the Ice, and making it into a spear and throwing it at me. I raise the Hylian shield, which the shield takes it, and the Ice breaks from the collision, but the creature was able to charge and pounce at me, with my shield still up.

At this point, the creature seemed to be attacking my shield, to try and get at my face, when I kick it off, and slash at its chest, which quite frankly, was not exactly hard to miss, and not to be perverted, it is just description, nothing else, and making it roar in pain, before charging at me again, but this time, I was unprepared, and it forced me on the ground. I start struggling, trying to get out from underneath it, as it tries to slowly get its tail around me. I manage to escape it's grasp, before it can wrap its tail around me, which seems to both pisses it off, and disappoint it, before I quickly slash at its tail, nearly cutting it off from the creature. It slowly dies, but not before laying an egg, with strange white liquid on it, which I didn't destroy and instead wiped down and put in the hat Dark Link gave me to preserve it outside the flow of time.

As the creature died, the ice in the room melted, and the water evaporated. Once fully empty, the room returned to its original size, and I was transported to the room of the Sages. There Princess Ruto said that the curse on Zora's Domain was lifted, and to take the Water Medallion as thanks for saving the Zoras. She then asks me to tell Sheik thanks for saving her from the ice.

After that, I am returned to Lake Hylia to see Sheik looking at the slowly rising waters. "Link, you did it. You and Ruto lifted the Curse that caused this to happen to Lake Hylia and the Zoras. HAKK!" Sheik says, as I quickly pull her close to me, irritated.

"Look, I had enough. You seem to be where ever I either need to be, or their before I even know I have to be there, and quite frankly, right now I am lucky to be alive." I pull Sheik up close with her shirt enclosed by my hand.

"That's because of how it's would play out. You defeat a ball, and get transported to the Sages realm!" Sheik says.

"Not sure how you think it was just a ball when it split in half and spit out a half women half-snake thing." I say back, to Sheik's shock.

"Link, first off, how did a snake thing end up as your final fight in there, and second, please let me down. It isn't necessary to do this you know?" Sheik says as I let her down.

"Heh, I would like to know who told you what I would face, because they might have been wrong on the difficulty and what it was I would face. Just tell me where I need to go next, and leave Sheik. I am only tolerating you right now because you are an ally. But prove me wrong, and you will regret it." I say, knowing full well at this point it was Princess Zelda. I had suspected from the beginning, but I just confirmed it. I will wait to push her on this though, as I don't wish to get Ganondorf involved yet. Sheik says to fire an arrow at the sun from the stone tablet over there, and I would meet her soon enough at another location. Where depends on where I follow the wind.

I eventually think, and realize that the only location I can think of I haven't been to yet, is the Gerudo Desert and the desert beyond it. So I call Epona, and ride her to the Valley again, and talk to the Foreman, who says that his workers are locked up in the Gerudo Fortress, and to rescue them so they can rebuild the bridge over the valley. I agree and enter the Fortress. I also explain what the Gerudo are, and some of their traits, to give an idea on what the Gerudo are as a whole, and explaining Ganondorf, while one of them, is one of two, technically three outliers for them.

Needless to say, I get caught a minute in and get thrown into a room with a single-window made of wood. They yell at me saying that I better stay there, for the girls are readying up for some fun with a tress passer. I don't know what it meant back then, and I don't know what it means now, so I used my Longshot to get out and jumped to an entrance into the Fortress.

Over the course of a day, I explored the Fortress, and rescued the four men trapped by them, and beat the second in command of them all four times. The second in command admits that I was smart, and as sneaky as them, and gave me a Gerudo Membership Card, so the Gerudo would no longer bother me, and I could explore it as much as I want now. So I first head to the Gerudo Training grounds, and clear it, getting the Ice Arrows from them, which I use a few times in the future.

After that, I head towards the gate that leads into the desert, and I get a warning, people get lost easily in the desert due to the sand, and the fact that it is not possible to navigate unless you are able to see the unseen. I acknowledge the risks, and enter the Haunted Wasteland anyway.

Using the Longshot to get to the other side of a quicksand lake, and following some poles, I eventually reach a stone building that goes deeper, and I get a small chest filled with rupees, and I just go to the top instead, that acts like a sign, which states 'The eye that reveals the truth, shows the way.'. I take a gamble and pull out the Lens of Truth, which reveals a Poe, that states he will show the way there, but back he doesn't do.

So I follow the Poe, to the area of land called the Desert Colossus. There, I notice a wall that looks unstable, which I bomb, and reveal a hole to a Great Fairy Fountain. I enter it, and receive Nayrus Love, which is a powerful spell that can make me immune to all attacks, for a period of time.

I then walk to the temple and enter it. I look around and find a small tunnel I could fit into as a kid, and a big silver block, that when I try to push, it just stays there. I look around for a couple of minutes until I notice a couple of statues, that to sum up what they read, one side requires a child, and one side requires an adult with the Silver Gauntlets. Realizing that in order to continue, I leave the Temple, and Sheik jumps down from a weird formation of rocks, and after some speech about time again, teaches me the Requiem of Spirit. I play the Prelude of Light to return to the Temple of Time, and return the Master Sword to return to the past.

After returning to the past, I play the Requiem of Spirit and return to the Desert Colossus, and reenter the Spirit Temple. When I enter and go up to the tunnel I could enter in my current form, I find a Gerudo woman waiting in front of it, kneeling. I walk up to her, and cough to get her attention, which makes her jump, and turn around, which she instantly calms down realizing it is a kid.

She says her name is Nabooru, and that she wants me to get her the Silver Gauntlets, and if I do it, she will give me a reward when I am old enough. What kind I don't know, but it felt weird. Anyway, I go through the tunnel to the other side, and after some easy exploration, I eventually reach a room with a strange metal knight with a two-sided ax. I walk around it, and see the door is locked, which means that the metal knight thing is my opponent. Needless to say, I stabbed it as a test strike.

Worst. Thing. Ever. The fucking thing gets up, and the throne fucking disintegrated from it just getting up! I took its ax, and THREW it at me, which I just barely dodge, and it hit's the wall, only for it to fly back to it. I knew right then and there, this would easily be the toughest not boss monster yet.

It took three fucking hours to beat. It took bombs, sword strikes, Din's Fire, and a shit load of luck to beat, even then, I am lucky that it didn't kill me. It nearly did, as I have more cuts, bruises, and a large gash on my head and chest due to a near-lethal hit on me. I limp out of the room through the door, and exit the temple, to find myself on one of the hands of the statue, which then a chest falls from somewhere, and I open to receive the Silver Gauntlets. I then hear a shriek, and see Nabooru being sucked in through a magic portal, with two witches floating on brooms, talking about brainwashing her. The Portal fully sucks Nabooru in, and the witches enter the temple.

Realizing it was safe, I jump down without any further injury and limp my way to the nearby Great Fairy Fountain, and when the Great Fairy sees my condition, shrieks in absolute shock and horror, and heals me as fast as she could. She then told me this, "Hero, I am sorry. I healed you the best I could, but even magic has it's limits. Your head injury won't scar, but your chest will scar. Nothing short of the Triforce can heal that, I believe. But at the same time, there are magics I don't know about, so maybe there is one that can heal you fully, but as far as I am aware, that scar will always follow you around till death. I am sorry, Link." The Great Fairy says, crying in sadness. She eventually returns to her fountain, and I just leave the fountain.

After leaving it, I play the Prelude of Light, and return to the Temple of Time, and return to the Adult era, and look underneath my Tunic. The scar was still there, just faded compared to the child unfaded one. I just sigh, knowing that something like that will forever follow me. I then play the Requiem of Spirit, and return to the Desert Colossus, and reenter the Spirit Temple.

Going through the Adult Portion was pure hell. Endless puzzles, backtracking, though I did get a new shield, called the Mirror Shield, which should come in handy, and eventually making a platform lower itself in front of a statue, with light shining down with me. I take a guess and aim a beam of light at the statue. The face breaks off and reveals a door that I can Longshot to. I do so and reach a room with another one of those Iron Knuckles, as I learned their name, and the Two Witches, named Koume and Kotake. They gloat about brainwashing Nabooru and leave me to the Iron Knuckle, who summons its ax. I pull out the Biggoron Sword, and we clash. It lasts five minutes, and the Iron Knuckle is beaten, revealing Nabooru. The Witches reappear, and send Nabooru somewhere, and disappear. I open the next door, walk through a tunnel, and reach a giant room with a giant stone slab, surrounded by four pillars.

I climb up the stone slab, and I am greeted by the two witches slowly rising up from the ground from some weird portal like thing.

The two insult me, then talk about burning me to the bone, and being frozen to the soul. They start flying around, and then they duplicate, making a second copy of themselves. They go to the four pillars, all cackling while they do so. The other two begin charging their respective elements at me, and I am forced to use my shield in hopes of it doing something, and it does. It gets reflected back on the opposite of where it was fired, and the two of the four witches just stop where they are, not doing anything. The other two just laugh, and fly around, and one fires their magic beams as well, and I reflect it back to the opposite, realizing what is necessary to beat them.

Over the course of a half-hour, I eventually destroy the two clones and the original two look on with a bit of shock. "I admit boy, you did well to stand against us, even when the Great Ganondorf gave us our upgrades compared to what we had before. We are far stronger than we were before, and now you will face our true might!" The two witches speak together, flying into each other, fusing to create Twinrova, who ends up looking like a younger, but taller Nabooru, with fire and ice hair. Twinrova again splits, this time into four, each one just as powerful and capable as the original. Each one gives its own wink.

"Most boys your age would love a situation like this, just in a different way. You on the other hand, are extremely naive to most social and emotional understandings. Then again, growing up in a forest filled with little kids does that to you, making you unable to truly understand a situation like this. No matter, you will die all the same in the end." The four Twinrovas say at once.

To explain said fight would be a nightmare, but to sum it up, it involved beating each Twinrova one at a time, when they could all attack me at the same time, and had powerful and dangerous combo moves, that I had no chance of avoiding if I allowed them to come near me. But I persevere and eventually bring that amount of Twinrovas down to one, and the last one has a bit of shock on her face.

"I will admit boy, you impressed me. Defeating three of the four of me on your own is no simple feat. But you are tired, worn down, and near defeat. Can you hold it together, or will you fall to my power?" Twinrova asks in a sickly sweet tone, and the fight ends up where the mirror shield absorbs three magic attacks and returns it to her, and after a few times of this, Twinrova is sent spinning from it and splits back into Koume and Kotake.

Needless to say, they died or disappeared, I don't fully know, and I ascend to the Sage Realm, and see Nabooru appearing on the Spirit Sage spot. She congratulates me and says she wishes she was able to keep her promise from seven years ago, but she gives me a serious warning.

"Link, I am sure you noticed with the bosses, that they are either harder than they should be or just got powers that don't really match with what's known of them. After your exploration and finishing of the Forest Temple, Ganondorf decided to upgrade the remaining dungeon bosses. Volvagia was made to be nearly unkillable minus the things he couldn't remove, like the weakness of the Megaton Hammer, Morpha having multiple selves, and forms and Twinrova being able to clone herself. The Witches said that Ganondorf upgraded them, and he did. The next boss you will face, will be the hardest one you will face yet. Not including when you fight Ganondorf. You have to go to Kakariko village and find Sheik. She needs your help pronto. Be warned, your next dungeon will test you physically and mentally. I can only say that when you eventually go into it, it will be hell for you, and always keep the Master Sword on hand in it, even if you feel that the Biggoron Sword would be a better fit in terms of combat capability. Please, stay safe, and save Hyrule Link." Nabooru says, with a serious tone. The other sages appear on their respective spots. They confirm Nabooru's warning, and that the final temple will not be an easy one. I am then given the Spirit Medallion and warped to the Desert Colossus, I quickly run to the Great Fairy fountain and summon the Great Fairy. I ask her if she knows of a potion that can heal almost any injury.

"I do hero. It's called the Great Fairy's Tear, or tears if you want to be technical. When a Great Fairy is willing, we can produce a liquid that can heal most injuries, and when combined with a healing fairy, it can heal any injury not caused by dark magic. The scar you gained from the Iron Knuckle, was a scar created because of dark magic, which is why I couldn't fully heal it, but even with a tear and healing fairy, it would have still scared. Here hero, take two bottles full of my tears. You might need them in the future. Be safe hero, and know that my sisters will give you some if needed." The Great Fairy says, before returning to her fountain.

After that, I exit the fountain, and play the Prelude of Light to return to the Temple of Time. Once I appear back, I make sure the Master Sword and Mirror shield are on my back, and then I quickly run towards Kakariko Village.

On my way to the village, the thing I first see is smoke, fire, and the smell of death. Going up the stairs to Kakariko Village, I feel the darkness that caused this, and the pure evil that was unleashing its power and rage. I finally enter the village, to see the entire village on fire, and smoke rising from the building, and corpses of people around the village. I then see Sheik at the well, looking into it. I quickly run-up to her, and go to ask her what in the name of the Goddesses is going on, but Sheik tells me to stay back.

After she says that, the top of the well is blown off by an invisible source, and Sheik is thrown around like a toy, before landing behind me. I quickly run up to Sheiks form and make sure she is okay, before looking back at the well and seeing a shadow race across the land and village. Realizing I needed the Lens of Truth to see it, I quickly put it on, to see IT. A monster that has no wrist, and no head. Instead, the hands were separated from the arm, and it's neck stump, was it's eye? It was just floating around the village, before noticing me, and ramming right at me. I quickly fire an arrow at it, in hopes of stopping it, but it just bounces off the enclosed neck skin and slams right into me. It then uses me like it did with Sheik, but FAR more aggressively. It swings me around, slamming me on the ground, against buildings, and finally throwing me at the ground in a very hard impact. I pass out after I see it seemingly gloat about beating me, and leaving to the Kakariko Graveyard, which is where I assume it will make its lair.

I came back to the land of the awake, with Sheik looking at me with horror. "Link... You need medical attention stat! But I can't move you, I can tell you have multiple broken bones, splintered bones, and even a potential spine snap!" Sheik says, and I can tell something is wrong with me.

But I was prepared, and with the little control over my body I had, I pulled out two bottles. A bottle of Great Fairy Tears, and a pink healing fairy. I first release the fairy, who's kind normally doesn't speak, gasps at the state I am in, and leaves to gather a few healing fairy friends to help heal me. It mostly works, as I have most of my control and mobility restored, but the fairy who I released said to me too drink the Tears, as the injuries were created by a monster, not dark magic, it would be fully healed.

The Fairy waited as I drank the Great Fairy Tears, which had the taste of lemon mixed with some sweet-tasting herbs, and when I finish it, I can feel the difference. No pain and I have full control over myself again. I NEVER want to be in such a condition again, but I know it won't be easy to avoid. The Fairy, instead of leaving, stayed by me. "Just because you have Navi with you, doesn't mean a second fairy can't follow you around, Link. I will be asleep for a few years, time travel doesn't count towards the sleep before you ask, and when I wake up, I will be with you until you die. Navi, I will be sleeping in his hat, not the spot you do, but still in there to allow me to get some rest. Don't worry about me, I will wake up when I am ready. The amount of healing needed to be done, as you can tell, was insane. I would have had to require a ton more faries to heal you, even then we couldn't do a full heal. Oh before I forget, names Taget the fairy. We will talk more after I wake up." Taget says, before giving a yawn, and going into Links hat to sleep.

After that, Sheik tells me that Impa needs help, and she was going to go in, believing I would be unable to help, for understandable reasons. So after teaching me the Nocturne of Shadow, Sheik told me that the song would take me straight to the Shadow Temples entrance. She warns me that exploring it without it's presence would lead to my doom. At this point, it worries me. What kind of hell is the Shadow Temple going to be like?

"Sheik, what is it that you and the sages are warning me about? The sages said among the lines of what you said. What is there that requires me to need the Master Sword, no matter the circumstances in it?" I ask, completely confused. Sheik just looks at me, annoyed, but then understands what I am confused about.

"To simply put it, the Shadow Temple is a cesspool of evil, darkness, despair among things. It is easily the worst Temple you will go through, simply because of its nature. The Shadow Temple is home to Hyrules history of hatred, bloodshed, and war. Simply put, everything negative that has happened to Hyrule in its entire history is sent to the Shadow Temple to be locked away, whether we are aware of it or not. But I believe that Ganondorf, besides giving the temples boss, Bongo Bongo, and upgrade, also enhanced it's negativity absorbers, and enhanced them to be able to drive most insane or make them pure evil. Even in its sheath, the Master Sword can protect you from it, which is why I say KEEP IT OUT. The Master Sword is your best defense in the Temple. Please, be careful Link. Hyrule, the Sages, everyone is counting on you Link." Sheik says, pleading with me to keep the Master Sword out. Which, now knowing WHY they said to do it, agree to keep it out. "Thank you Link. Now go to the Shadow Temple, I will help the citizens of this village out. Save Impa, and stop Bongo Bongo." Sheik says, before jumping to a house on fire, and going in.

I play the Nocturne of Shadow, and get teleported to the Graveyard, as I thought, and notice the opening leading down with a staircase, to a circle of unlit torches, and a door with the eye of the Sheikah, based on what I have seen so far. I decide that Din's Fire is appropriate to use to light all the torches at once and proceed to use it. The torches are light, and the door groans, and slowly opens. As it opens, a wave of a smell of death, decay, blood, and a smell that can only be described as evil, comes out. I gag at it, knowing full well that when this Temple is done, I will be going to Death Mountain Crater, with the Goron Tunic on, and taking a swim in the hot spring in it.

I slowly walk to the entrance, with the smell becoming stronger, but at the same time, I slowly grow more use to it, well as use to the smell of decaying bodies as you can get, and fully enter the Temple.

The first thing that I notice, is that the bricks of the entrance as the texture and look of bones, compressed into bricks. That instantly sets me on guard, as that is an instant creepy for me. I see a gap, and at the bottom, I see bodies on spikes, going through their bodies, with blood that looked old and fresh, some of the bodies no more than skeletons, while some look like they couldn't be over a day old. I realize instantly from just this, what the Sages and Sheik were getting at. Without the Master Sword, I would have died just by entering here, judging by the bodies. While most of them have to before I opened the door, it is quite clear that the magic of the place will preserve the corpses just to make those weak in mind or spirit, to join the corpses knowingly or not.

I use the Longshot to get over to the other side of the gap and look at what looks like a wall with a skull-like face, looking at me. I then hear what I assume the wall says "Shadow Temple... Here is gathered Hyrule's bloody history of greed and Hatred." When I heard that, chills crawled up my spine. Something about the voice, the tone, the way it spoke, sounded like it not only spoke from experience but thrived in those types of deals. This is another moment that makes me realize, how fucked this temple will be. I pull out the Lens of Truth, and find the wall to be fake, and walk through it, shivering in the process.

The next room as skulls attached to poles, with a bird statue and a wall that I assume is to be pushed. I decide to come back to it, and look around and find another fake wall, same design, and it speaks about Hyrules dark history of bloodshed. I quickly walk through it and enter the door.

BIGGEST REGRET EVER! I say that, because the very fucking walls, floor, and ceiling, was made of bones, bodies still fresh, and decayed but not skeleton yet corpses. I quickly left the room, to breathe deeply, and to throw up. I didn't know it at the time, but the Shadow Temple fucked me up in more ways I can imagine, as the Master Sword can protect from physical and magical attacks directed or indirect, but if something like that Shadow Temple, all it can do is keep me safe from wanting to join the corpses at the bottom of the gap back in the beginning.

Regaining my composure, and praying to the three Goddesses for strength and forgiveness, I walk through the room made of the dead and walk through some fake walls to enter rooms. One room, in particular, had a creature I faced as a kid. A Dead Hand. A creature that looks like an undead being with a freakishly large jaw, with spikes for arms, purple, but closer to blood-red blotches all over its body, monster. I reach a room with the creature's hands sticking out like in the Bottom of the well, just as an adult in the Shadow Temple.

Needless to say, fighting one as an adult was just as bad as facing against one as a kid. The creature's mere movements were like a snake but standing up. I was glad to try and take a bite out of me, which it failed to do. I quickly removed all the sticking out hands and forced the creature to come out. I attacked it for a full five minutes, playing a game of cat and mouse, and I was the mouse. I eventually won the fight, but absolutely terrified of the whole deal. From the chest that appeared after beating it, I got the Hover Boots, which let me hover over gaps for a short period of time. About 3 seconds if I were to guess. So after getting it, and putting them on just in case I would need them in the future, which I would, and got a small key, and ran like hell back to the bird statue room, just so I could get away from all the staring bodies and skulls.

I reenter the room with the bird statue that could be pushed, and I not only regain my breath, but have to keep myself from throwing up from fear, disgust, and absolute horror. I slowly regain my composure, as much as I can have in a temple-like this, and pull out the Lens of Truth, and push the Bird Statue beak in the direction of the only skull that remains solid compared to the rest of the skulls. By doing this, a gate that was connected to the mouth of a demon shaped face with its tongue sticking out from it. I quickly run over the gap, and once I reach the tongue, and am safe on it, I look down to see this gap is filled with corpses as well. This time though, it is filled with the bodies of children. Some Hylian, some Zora, some Kokiri, some I assume to be Goron and Gerudo. All in various stages, from fresh corpses to decomposing, to a skeleton. I quickly run past the mouth hole thing and throw up again.

This dungeon. I don't think I should have entered it. It is slowly making me wish to never want to be in this land again if this is just a taste of the Dungeon. Fuck, calling it a dungeon is a compliment. A fucking graveyard with 20,000 years of History wouldn't have this many corpses, let alone the shit I have seen so far in this hell. I again, work on and semi-successfully regain my composure and move on. The next room has a monster I quickly destroy, and two walls covered in more skeletons, bodies, and fresh corpses. I pull out the Lens of Truth, to find that one is fake, and one has to be blown up. I first go through the fake wall and find something to help me go through this temple, while the real one, when I blow up, which I instantly regretted, as the blood splashed from the fresh corpses, body parts, and innards going everywhere, and the bones shattering and splintering with all the noise associated with it, made me dry heave, as at that point, I had nothing left to eject from my stomach through my mouth.

Entering the revealed door, after regaining my no longer existing composure, I find the room with slicing noise, and a turning of gears, with nothing visible, and when I pull out the Lens of Truth, a statue of two beings conjoined essentially swinging their scythes in a circle slowly, and covered in blood, old and fresh from what I could tell, I had to gather silver rupees, which was easy enough. I unlocked the door, and got the chest that appeared at the end of a tunnel with a fake floor partway through, though thanks to the Hover Boots, I don't fall and I miss a portion of the temple, for temporary.

Progressing through more of the Temple, through the only other door available, I enter a room a passageway that takes me deeper into the dungeon. Which, as you may have guessed by now, is filled and made of even more corpses and skeletons. Unlike those who get use to that shit pretty quickly, I wasn't prepared for this, and all of it happening to a person who hadn't grown up normally, pretty much fucked me over.

The room has floating platforms only revealed by the Eye of Truth, and guillotines that go up and down, depending on the one you are looking at. After clearing the neighboring rooms, with just as much horror shows, and one room basically being torture room heaven, past a room with spikes on the floor and a room with a giant skull with an opening on the top surrounded by flames, I reach possibly the two most normal rooms up to that point. The bone brick walls, and the gap in a couple of parts being the exception. I eventually reach a room filled with Gibdo, which are just redeads in bandages, and the room is made of more dead bodies and skeletons. While I may not react anymore physically, mentally, it REALLY fucked me up. But as soon as I entered it, killed the gibdo, and left, I enter the Ferry room.

The Ferry took what I thought to be fucked up, and took it to a 12. When it started, the bells on the front of the Ferry started ringing and floated along. I looked over the side, and see fucking spirits in agony, with a face stuck in an eternal scream, like the river. The fucking walls of the ferry ride to the room were made of corpses, kids, and adults, and I face a few stalfos, which I quickly killed. When the Ferry ended, and I reached the endpoint, I just sat down, and looked at the ground. I eventually got up, crying. I was crying because this temple was destroying me mentally. I just ended up going through the remaining portions quickly, with the final main room being made out of more compressed bones, and the boos door lead to a hole in the ground, surrounded by more fucking corpses. Wanting to just get out of this... Temple, if I can call it that loosely, I jump down, and land on a drum of sorts.

After landing, I first notice the hands banging on the drum, in a beat that sent chills down my spine for no reason. But something about it was just pure wrong. Then I saw the main body of Bongo Bongo, who slowly faded into nothing, and I pulled out the Lens of Truth, and the Fairy Bow. I first take his hands out of commission, and hit his neck eye thing, and just wail at it with the Master Sword, and this repeats a few times before Bongo Bongo stops his beat. Then it talks.

"Hero. You have seen the true face of Hyrule. You know see my True Face." It said, in a slightly feminine tone, before it faded into a shadow mist, before reforming to show a giant skull, two floating hands, and a detached main body. The skull does some sort of cackle, and the entire body, including the hands fade from sight, leaving me to depend on the Lens of Truth for the fight.

The easiest part of the boss was its hands, which is honestly not telling much. Unlike the first form I fought it in, the hands were incapable of being harmed by normal arrows. I had to find where the hand was, quickly turn the Lens of Truth off, so I could quickly fire an Ice Arrow at it, and freeze it, before hitting it with the Megaton hammer, to chatter the hand into a shadow mist. That is vastly easier said than done, and it took me about 20 tries to do. Each hand by the way. Then the main body required me to fire a few fire arrows, in certain spots that could change at an instant, and the only way I know if the arrow hit true, was with the lens of truth. That was not the hardest part. The Skull was the hardest part. The boss moved each part independent of the rest of each other, but they all still hand enough of a connection to avoid harming itself. The main body could fire beams of darkness, thin, but strong enough to cut through the stone behind me. The hands could fire quick balls of darkness that covered an area in a shadow mist for a short time. An arrow that was there told me that the mist basically decays stuff like that on contact. Only the arena was exempt from it for some reason. The skull was the hardest part, as the only way to harm it, was to hit both eyes with fire arrows, and hit the mouth with an ice arrow, and then throw a bomb in the open jaw, and hit it in the front with a strike from the Megaton hammer.

All I will say is this. The boss took me half a day to beat. It was the worst boss I have dealt with. When it took the final blow, the skull just floated to the returned remains of its body, and the skull grinned. "Good job, "Hero". You have beaten me fully. I am slowly turning to a shadow mist that is dissipating but let me tell you this. Your experience here will follow you till the day you die." Bongo Bongo says, before starting to laugh in a demonic way, slowly turning into a shadow mist. I am eventually transported to the Sage realm, where I see Impa looking at me.

"Link... There is nothing I can say or do to apologize or make up for what you went through. Even with the Master Sword, I can tell that your experiences in the Shadow Temple will haunt you for the rest of your days. Link, I am completely sorry for what you had to go through. Take the Shadow Medallion, and play the song that will take you to the Temple of Time. Its aura should help calm your soul, somewhat. Play the song of your friend, Saria. It might help you as well. Sheik will meet you in the Temple of Time, to talk to you. She learned what you went through, and will try her best to help you. Please, live Link, for Zelda and for Hyrule. If you wish to leave Hyrule after this, I wouldn't blame you for it." Impa says, with a sad look on her face, as she sends Link back to Kakariko Village, which was rebuilt.

I quickly play the Prelude of Light, to reach the Temple of Time quickly, and once there I meet Sheik. Sheik does her best to help me, and even though I played Saria's Song, my nerves aren't really helped at all. About two hours after this, I finally ask Sheik this. "Sheik, are you Princess Zelda in disguise?" I ask Sheik, who freezes up at that.

"W-what makes you think that?" Sheik asks nervously.

"I only know of one person with blond hair, who had some form of connection to the Sheikah tribe, and the fact that you look almost too much like her to be a pure chance possibility." I say, as calmly as I could, even though mentally I am trying to get over the Shadow Temple... Issue.

Sheik only sighs, knowing she was caught at this point. "Yes Link, I am Zelda. I figured you knew from the beginning, but I tried to keep it hidden." Sheik says, quickly turning into Zelda, and gifting me the Light Arrows. "Link, I know you are recovering from that place, but there is still one more mission for you. To stop Ganondorf. Believe me, I wish I could let you recover as much as you need it, but Ganondorf knows I am here, and he will capture me. Don't try and stop it, Link. Just go to Ganons Tower, and stop this mess once and for all. Please." Zelda asks, which I give a reluctance nod back in understanding, to which Ganondorf takes her to his tower.

Up till the fight with Ganondorf, the entire tower of his was surprisingly boring. I guess he felt that I would either be broken mentally or unwilling to do anything. The most that happened was that I got the Golden Gauntlets, and meet the last Great Fairy, who filled a bottle with some Great Fairy Tears before I returned to the tower to finish my ascent.

When I finally reached the room Ganondorf and Zelda were in, something weird was going on. Ganondorf was looking at me, smiling. "Good job "Hero", you made it this far without dying. I am impressed. But like I told you back at the Forest Temple, I won't be as easy as my phantom." Ganondorf says, before walking to the center of the room, and summoning two swords.

As soon as I pulled out the Master Sword and Mirror shield, I am forced to dodge multiple quick and powerful attacks by Ganondorf, who I only escape barley. I quickly catch his swords with my shield and knock one of them out of his hands, and rolling to it, I slice it in half, making him only have one to use.

"Impressive Hero. But I am just as capable with one sword, as with two." Ganondorf says, then rushes at me, swinging his sword, with my sword clashing in a horrifying sound, and each clash going on, until I stop the sword again, and stab Ganondorf in the arm, which doesn't do anything except make him grin more. He then jumps back, and fires an energy ball at me, then fires a massive charge of lightning at me, forcing me to hit the ball back, and jump to the side to avoid the lightning. Just want he wanted. He appeared at my side, and kicked me hard in the side, forcing me to slide several feet, and hitting the wall in the process. I quickly pick myself back up, and catch the blade meant for my head with my shield, and successfully knock this blade out of his hand, and destroy it too. Ganondorf just laughs and summons a spear and a third, but larger sword. He first throws the spear, infused with lightning at me, which I dodge, and take a nik to the arm from a slash he aimed at me. I quickly cut his sword in half, and he re-summons his spear and goes from an impalement attack, which I catch between my sword and shield and break the spear from pressing the two against it.

Eventually Ganondorf gets bored of the contact fighting, and just starts floating in the air, in the center of the room, and fires energy balls in the counts of three. Over the time it takes, I eventually get a ball to stun Ganondorf long enough to fire a light arrow at him, and it forces him down long enough to get a bunch of good hits in. The process repeats three times, before he has enough, and grabs a spear, and throws it right at me. I dodge, but it hits my arm pretty hard, but I already fired back two light arrows, both hitting Ganondorf square in the chest, knocking him to the ground. Zelda eventually floats down, and we run, as he started bringing the entire tower.

After some moments, we exit from where I entered from the Tower, and just see rubble from the tower sprawn all over the place. I sigh, knowing the fight isn't over yet, and walk up to the biggest pile, which Ganondorf explodes out, and transforms into a giant boar thing. Ganon, starts swinging around his giant swords and knocks the Master Sword over to Zelda, and I am forced to pull out the Biggoron Sword, which rolling in between Ganons legs a few times and getting good hits on his tail, and forces Ganon into a kneel, and I quickly run over and grab the Master Sword, I then run back into the makeshift arena between me and Ganon, and the fight resumes.

Repeating the cycle form earlier, I attack his tail, eventually forcing Ganon back on the ground. Zelda quickly uses her power to lock Ganon onto the ground, and I stab him in the head with the Master Sword, and he gets sealed away in the Evil Realm.

"Link... You did it. You stopped Ganondorf, and saved Hyrule. Thank you Link." Zelda says to me in an area in the Sacred Realm, to talk to me in private. "If I could change anything, it would be that what you witnessed in the Shadow Temple, would never have happened. But all I can do is give you a second chance at a childhood, Link. Give me the Ocarina of Time. I will send you to the past before you had to meet my child self. Please, prevent Ganondorf from rising again. Save the past. This timeline will continue on, but if you can give Hyrule a better future, please do it." Zelda asks, and I give her the Ocarina of Time. Zelda plays the Song of Time, sending me back to before anything happened, minus the death of the Great Deku Tree.

After I take a few steps away from the Master Sword, Navi says goodbye to me, she needs to speak with a Great Fairy about what happened with me and her. She flies away, and I never will see her again. I eventually go to Hyrule Castle, and warn the Zelda of the Past about what will happen in the future, and speak to the King of Hyrule too, with the evidence to back up my explanation and claims about the future with Ganondorf. The King thanked me, and Zelda of the childhood time gave me the Ocarina of Time, as I was leaving the land of Hyrule, to get away from the hell I went through, by exploring the Lost Woods, to find something that will help me accept what I went through, and move on.

After Link finished recounting his adventures and being reminded of an Egg in his hat, and Taget being with him, Stunk, Zel, Crim, and I just look on in shock, horror, and sadness. No one deserves that fate, and he has two adventures to explain!? God in Heaven, what kind of Hell will he explain for his second adventure!?

"Now, I will start the story of my second adventure. It begins me leaving Hyrule, as I wished to get away from the memories I had, and the fact that I wanted to see if I could find Navi or Saria in the Lost Woods, and I brought Epona, my once friend with." I start with.

I explain that the section of the Lost Woods, was a different section to the Hyrule one, and explain that the Lost Woods is a complex part of creation, that to simplify, is a giant crossroad of dimensions. I and Epona stop at one spot, to look around for a good place to rest when we are ambushed by two fairies, named Tatl and Tale, knocking me off my horse. I wasn't knocked out, just temporarily stunned, and a figure in a mask that screamed danger appeared from nowhere, and walked up to me and began searching through my things, and eventually finding the Ocarina of Time, the item Princess Zelda of this time gave to guide me through my adventure and to protect me. Though, when she gave it to me, she said it also represented something else, but I missed it due to her whispering it. Skull kid, the being wearing Majoras Mask, began messing with the Ocarina, while fairies seemed to fight each other like siblings, on whether or not one could mess with the Ocarina of Time or not. I quickly get over my shock and stand up to make a grab at the Skull Kid, who avoids it, and lands on Epona, who neighs and starts to gallop away, and I quickly latch on to Skull kids leg, and we ride for about 10 minutes until I get thrown off, and I regain my bearings, and go down the nearest tunnel that they went through, and jumped over to an entrance to another dimension.

I walked into it, and stop at an edge, which seemed to be bottomless. I look down, to see if anything is down there, and I see just pitch-black void. I take a leap of faith, and jump down it, to find what looked like lights just floating around as I fell, before landing on a flower that broke my fall softly. I stand up to see Skull kid floating in the air, looking at me. After insulting me and Epona, he starts shaking his mask and unleashing a wave of energy at me, which I quickly jump to the side to avoid, before the wave followed me, and hits me anyway.

I then find myself in a room, surrounded by Deku, all shaking in a dance-like motion, staring at me. Before they all started merging, to create a giant version of themselves, and just a giant shaking version. Eventually, I just ran from it, as something in my gut told me that it was the best choice at the time.

I eventually came back, to see myself as a Deku, wooden body, hat larger than the majority of my body, and a giant wooden nose, mouth, thing. I look at the Skull kid with an irritated expression, which Skull kid just laugh saying how goofy I looked, before floating away, I go to make chase, but Tatl smacks into and growls, which was something I didn't know fairies could do up to that point, and the giant door closed on the two of us. Tatl realizes that she was left behind, and slams into the door multiple times, trying to open it, before realizing that I was the only way to open the door.

"YOU! If I wasn't dealing with you, I wouldn't have been left behind!" Tatl starts to rant, but I interrupt her, not in the mood to deal with such a narrow mind at the moment.

"And who's fault is that? You are the one to decide 'Hey I will stay back and body slam this guy for following when clearly all three of us could have outfield him due to the fact that he has no idea on where to go, and we have no limits in terrain! Genius!' so it isn't my fault you stayed back. You are the moron of a fairy to stay back, and try and slow me down when clearly you and the Skull Kid could run laps around by the sheer fact that YOU CAN FLY! For the sake of Din, Farore, and Nayru, how is it I go from a quiet, but smart fairy, to a glowing yellow yelling dumb ass like you already! Now shut the fuck up, and either stay or leave when I open the door. My only path anyway." I yell, then just quietly say. I really don't like being mean, and I feel really guilty about it, but she is one of the two fairies that ambushed me, allowed Skull Kid to do his things, and then attacked me for trying to keep up. My anger while justified, doesn't make me feel any better about it.

After that, and I open the giant door to the other side, I walk to a flower, and I just get this feeling to go in it. But before I actually try to follow my feeling, Tatl catches up to me from the relatively small pathway.

"Hey, sorry about back there. I am very worried about my little brother and Skull Kid." Tatl apologizes, though I can easily tell it is a forced one, but I just take it for what it is, and go into the flower, to float, fly, something among those lines, to the other side with a door. I walk through the door, to find a giant ass cavern with a pit that seems to go on forever. On each platform, there is a flower I can use, to float to each one. On one platform, there was a chest I opened that contained Deku Nuts. I take them, and when I fly with the next flower, I accidentally send one of the Deku nuts out of my mouth hole thing, and it falls down, before exploding lighting up absolutely nothing of the pit. One more flower float and I reach the final platform that holds a sad-looking tree, that looks like me, but dead.

It's odd, I know things about the Deku I didn't know, I can do things I didn't know they could do, as soon as I was... Transformed... Into... this... form... Oh sweet Din, help me. No. Not this. Skull Kid didn't just transform me into a Deku, but he took a life of a once-living Deku, and made me turn into its shell, and left its c-corpse there to sit there, forever. As a lifeless husk of a Tree. While realizing it is a corpse of a Deku having its soul sucked out, I feel bad for it, and the soul that Skull Kid forced into fusing with me. Oddly enough, I think the soul is just aware enough, as after thinking that, I hear "It's, Okay, Hero." paced out, like it was forcing itself to use whatever energy it had, to say it. I quickly regain my composure and leave through the tunnel, which twisted and turned from forest to a city. Now, at this point in time, I didn't know that wasn't normal. The Lost Woods can only connect through forests, Jungles, stuff like a Mushroom Forest, Bone Forest, so long as it was either natural or a natural Magic in nature. Skull Kid was the one who moved the entrance to beneath the location, though at this point, I wasn't truly aware of the true enemy.

Entering the room, and the door closing behind me, locking me out, I just look around. Machinery I have never seen before, I quickly learned where called cogs, where powered by a water mill. I eventually go up the stairs and look around. Nothing followed me besides Tatl, and nothing was in the room with me.

I make my way to the only exit, to only be stopped by a voice I was familiar with. The Happy Mask Salesman.

"You've meet with a terrible fate, haven't you?" He asks, in his forever smiling face.

"Hey Happy Mask Salesman." I say, not knowing his real name.

"Please, call me Shigeru, for simplicity purposes. I was following you through the forest, and I admit you are a tough one to keep up with, as I know who you are, and I know you can help me. The Skull Kid ambushed me at one point, though it was when he was still just playing jokes, and found a mask I spend a very long time looking for. Majora's Mask. I need you to get it for me, and when you get your special item back, return to me and I will help you." Shigeru says.

"Just so you know, even if I get my item back, I won't be able to get your mask back right away. It might take a while to get it done. I definitely won't be able to get it back, at the same time as my item." I say.

"I understand Hero. Though, Majora's Mask must be returned, as it has the power to destroy the world. Please, do it quickly hero." Shigeru said, as calmly and serious as possible, for a man with an eternal smile says.

I quickly leave through the doors, having and an idea of the threat now, and as those doors close, I take a few steps and notices a strange shadow that doesn't seem right, I turn around and start moving my head upwards and "WHAT THE ACTUAL DIN FARORE AND NAYRU IS THAT THING!?" I scream when I see the moon. It was the most horrifying thing I have seen, well second to the Shadow Temples shit, and it instantly terrified me. Shakes, shivers, and some indescribable movements. I quickly run back into the tower, look at Shigeru, and ask him "WHAT THE FUCK DID I JUST SEE IN THE SKY!?" I basically scream at Shigeru in terror.

"Oh. What did you see?" Shigeru asks calmly, yet concerned.

"I saw what looked like a moon but with a face that can only be summoned up with red-orange eyes filled with malice and a desire to something I don't know, and a mouth that was just a flat mouth with horribly spaced teeth and a nose more pointed than a spike. What the fuck did I just see though!?" I say, stuttering and stammering at it. Shigeru gives a look of shock, and sadness.

"What you just saw, was a representation of Majora's power. I was going to wait a bit to tell you, but your reaction proves that the simple route of explanation won't help in this case." Shigeru says, before clearing his throat, and grabbing a canister with a lid to drink from.

"Now, because we are in an area where time stands still for some reason, I can give you a better understanding of what's going on without a time restriction. Many centuries ago a group of interlopers practiced dark magic, and created a few creations capable of destroying the world, all to overthrow the power of the Golden Goddesses and claim the Triforce for themselves. They create the mask the created that moon, and the mask wiped out most of the interlopers, using their powers against them, and escaped before being sealed away by a hero of the land. But the Hero couldn't truly lift the Masks power, and the mask's power continued to fester, it's anger, hatred, and will to destroy continued to grow. The Mask is capable of destroying the world, and Termina earned the Golden Goddesses anger, partly because of land that you will end up visiting to stop it. Flat out, the moon can't be stopped without this lands Guardians, which was beaten by Majora's user, the Skull Kid. The Mask was caught by Skull Kid, to bring an end to this world, but you appearing, you are the second chance this land should get. The Goddesses will allow you to save this land, and prove that Termina deserves a second chance. I know you don't want to go on a second adventure, but you won't be able to leave until Majora is beaten. Heo, save this cursed world and lift its curse. If you don't, every single living being in this world will be killed, including you and me. Then it will move to other worlds, and eventually Hyrule, and slaughter everyone. Please, don't let this happen." Shigeru says, smiling, but tears in his eyes, shaking with fear.

"I... I will do it. I can't let such a thing happen when I can still do something." I say, knowing full well that I now fear the moon for the rest of my life, like I do with corpses and the connected types of corpses, not including monsters and Redead, technically.

"Thank you hero. Thank you. This world deserves a second chance, but I will tell you this, if you want to truly save it, you need to help everybody. Take this. "Shigeru gives me a notebook." I was going to wait to give you this, but because I told you that, you will need it to do what you need to do. It is a magical notebook, that will update for you when it detects when it is needed automatically. It will help you immensely, even if right now it isn't super helpful due to your state." Shigeru says.

"Thank you Shigeru. I will be back." I say. I leave the towers inside, and when I exit I see the moon again, and shiver in fear. "Sweet Din that thing is creepy as hell. Don't think I will be able to look at a moon the same way again." I say, and begin exploring the Town.

I quickly learn a few things. First, is that the moon will fall in three days, judging by its size and falling speed. Second, the town is called Clock Town, and the tower by extension is called Clock Town Tower, very original. Third, a bank that I can deposit rupees in. Fourth, I found out that Tatl is VERY annoying. She won't shut the fuck up, basically calling me useless, and blaming me for this situation. Fifth, I find out the location of the local Great Fairy Fountain, which I am about to enter.

I entered the Fountain, to find the room filled with little fairies, not like the healing fairies, but instead a bunch of strange fairies just floating there in a circle. I quickly run up to them and I hear them tell me that the Skull Kid broke the original Great Fairy, and I need to find their friend to return them to their Great Fairy form.

I explore the town and eventually reach an area with a creak and a fairy just floating above the water. I quickly reach up to it, and it tells me to take it to the Fountain, and reunite them to become whole again. So I quickly run as fast as my Deku body can go, and eventually return to the fountain, and the Great Fairy returns to her former glory.

"Thank you hero. When you return to your original form, come see me again. For now, I will give you the ability... Wait you can already use magic, so I will give you a deeper reserve of magic, and teach you how to spit bubbles in your Deku form." She says and teaches me to create Deku bubbles, and my magic seems to be more in tune with me, something tells me that when I return to my Hylian form, my magic will have some different abilities.

Leaving the fountain, and thanking the Great Fairy for helping me, I find a majora balloon that a kid with a red scarf is shooting something at, an old woman that was being robbed, that I sadly couldn't do anything about, and I pop the balloon to get the kids attention. I quickly talk to him, and after playing a game of hide and seek, which took about an hour, I learn a code to visit an observatory, and quickly run to it, and walking through a catacomb sewer thing, and eventually reaches the observatory, and after talking to an old man, I look through the telescope and find Skull Kid on the top of the tower, who just dances at me, and spanks his butt as an insult to me, and then just disappears from it.

Then something drops from the moon and lands outside. The old man told me that another Moon Tear fell and that I should go get it, which I do and return to the town, and it by the time I return to the town, it is the middle of the second day, and I go to the main section and see a flower I missed somehow, and when I approach it, a Deku Scrub yells at me to wait, and when he falls into it, he pops back up, and yell at me it is his private property, and he isn't giving it up unless I give him a Shiny gem like a Moon's Tear. Quickly pulling it out, I offer the Moon's Tear I have to him, and he quickly gives me the deed to the flower and flies away singing how he is getting something great tonight from his wife.

I just explore more of the town, finding people who would need help as the notebook expands getting more entries, and eventually, the night of the third day comes around, and I go to the bank behind the tower, which I open an account and put about 99 rupees into. I then go into the flower, and fly to the over the platform in front of the door that leads up to the top of the tower, and wait for midnight to round the corner.

Waiting for it, with the moon so close, and the ground shaking throughout the Third day, really is terrifying, and eventually, colorful explosions pop up in the air, and the door leading to the top of the tower opens up, and I walk up to it to the top of the tower, where I encounter the Skull Kid wearing Majora's Mask and throwing up and down the Ocarina of Time.

After insulting me a bit, and Tatls brother getting smacked, Skull Kid just unleashes a scream that makes the moon shake, and start falling at a noticeable to the eye rate, and makes the moon's eyes start glowing, and realizing I couldn't do anything other than firing a Deku bubble at Skull Kid, I do just that, and run over and grab the Ocarina of Time.

After a useless flashback, as I still remembered the Song of Time, I play the song on Pipes, which I assume is the Deku version of and Ocarina of Time, and then I just start falling through a void of white, with clocks all over the place as I fall, back to the beginning of the First Day I arrived. Quickly gather my thoughts, and seeing that the Clock Town deed is gone, I enter the Clock Tower where Shigeru was.

"Ah Link, I see that you returned. You also got your special item. I will teach you a song, that will help you, it is called the Song of Healing." Shigeru says, making a massive organ appear via magic, and plays three simple notes twice, sounding similar yet different to Saria's Song. I play the three notes via the Deku Pipes and I start to get a feeling os contentment, then enter a state where I see the Deku that soul that was forced to fuse with me. I see the soul leave, and as I return, it formed as a mask that falls to the ground.

"Link. Pick up that mask, and take it with you. I believe that it will help in your quest to save Termina. Couple more things before you go, since you have the Ocarina back. The song that lets you go back in time, can be played in two different ways. A double noted version, which is where the normal repeat of the notes is played together, is played twice at once, so one note is played twice in a row, so it would be like "Doo Doo dee dee doo doo", to give an idea. It will let you go forward in time to a specific time which you can pick. The second one, is where you play it backwards, which will slow down time. I know this, and I tell you this, is because I wish to help you. Be careful Link, and just believe in your strengths, and you will succeed in anything you do." Shigeru says, trying to help where he can.

I leave the tower, and start exploring the town, doing quests that people either needed help with, getting masks, and stopping the robbery of the old lady, buying the larger bomb bag from them, and quickly getting about six masks, and one from the north Termina Field, dancing on a rock mushroom. I get another mask from a ranch, though I had to wait until the third day to get, which I just played the song of time to restart, and then went straight to the Swamp.

After listening Tatl talk about how she and Tale meet Skull Kid, and how I was so irritating to deal with, we eventually entered the Swamp to find the waters looking wrong. I also see lily pads and put on the Deku Mask, to transform back into my Deku form, and hop around, eventually reaching a location with a potion shop I assume, and a forest entrance. I enter the forest, explore it a bit, and eventually spot a familiar face. Koume, the fire witch of the Spirit Temple, but how? Wait, she seems wrong, the feeling isn't the feeling I got from the Hyrule ones. No, she feels nicer, content, and a bit paranoid. I check on her, and she mutters quietly to herself, hoping I would leave, and wishing she brought one of the potions Kotake happens to make, as she could use one right now.

I quickly leave at that, and run to the Potion Shop, and find Kotake running it. After explaining to her about Koume, she quickly gives me a bottle filled with red potion to give to Koume, which I quickly do, and she thanks me saying that I am earned a free ride on the swamp tour, as I saved her. When I leave the forest, about four to five monkeys stop me, and explain they need my help to save a friend of theirs who was imprisoned for a crime he didn't commit. I agree to help, and the runoff back into the trees.

I quickly run and hop back to the building back at the entrance to the Swamp, and get the free ride to the Deku Palace, and a free pictobox, which takes pictures of whatever you want, and after the guard let me in because I was still in my Deku form, I find the monkey that was being talked about, and I search and find a way to the monkey to learn the Song of Awakening.

After getting thrown out, I make my way to the Woodfall Temple, learn the Song of Soaring, and exiting the Deku form, activate the statue at the pedestal where I could play the Song of Awakening, but since it is the middle of the Second day, I decided to just play the Song of Soaring, deposit my Rupees, get the Adult Wallet, and play the Song of Time to return to the First Day again.

After returning, I play the Song of Soaring to return to the area with the pedestal, turn into my Deku Form, and play the Song of Awakening, which makes the Temple rise from the murky waters, and I dig into the flower, to fly towards Woodfall Temple.

As soon as I enter the dungeon, it is dark, damp, and smelly. Though, considering it was under poisonous water for a time, it isn't a surprise that it smells less than pleasant. So I go through the dungeon, and getting the Hero's Bow, which is different than the Fairy's Bow, as that one wasn't meant for Adults to use for any longer than necessary, this one was meant for any age.

After exploring the Temple, and getting all the stray Faries, finding one by accident, and it explaining that all four temples have fairies like them scattered in them, and this one holds fairies like her, I eventually gather the fifteen in there and reach the boss room.

As soon as the boss room door closes, I hear chanting. The kind that sends shivers down your spine, that makes you nervous, like a war chant. A giant pudgy warrior drops down from the ceiling, and starts speaking in a language I never heard, and just starts dancing. Time to time, I would get a hit on it, stunning it, which let me get hits on the eye in the back of its head, eventually making it stop.

"You wish to do a true fight, little boy? Well then, I hope you are ready for double the trouble!" Odolwa says as a shadowy twin appears before it slinks away, and I narrowly avoid a slash by the shadow twin. Facing a fight on two sides, I focus on the shadow twin, which wasn't easy, as the original decided to be an ass, and at one point, blanketed the entire room in fire. The Shield I was using blocked it, thank the goddesses, and the shadow twin went into hiding until the fire disappeared.

I eventually killed the shadow twin, and it rejoins with its original twin, and after a bit, the original is forced onto its knees, with its sword in the ground. "Boy, I will tell you this. This land is doomed to be destroyed. No matter what you do, no matter how many times you try and delay it, this world will disappear. Your "goddesses" oriented the destruction of this land, whether you save it or not." At that, Odolwa dies, and leaves behind its mask for me to collect, as the body turned to bugs.

After grabbing the remains, I am warped to a location filled with water, and bubbles everywhere, like a giant bubble bath. Then I hear what sounds to be a roar or a call. I look around and see a giant simply put. Taller than the Clock Tower, and easily the tallest being I have seen yet, it was roaring in a way like it was singing. Quickly picking up on it, before Tatl could be a bitch, I learn a new song, that is called the Oath to Order.

It then starts talking in a way I didn't understand, and then I hear a voice. "Hero. You have freed me from my curse placed upon me by Majora. Thank you. I know that fairy will not tell you everything I say, so I will tell you this. Odolwa was not wrong when he said that the Goddesses have ordered this land's destruction. But it was for those who originally created Majora, as they entered the areas of magic forbidden on every level. Majora was created by the ones who went deep into the forbidden magic, and Majora killed them, but some escaped and lived on. This land is doomed, but only if you fail to truly save it. Make everyone happy, and help everyone. When the time comes, only the timelines where you helped people will remain, and you will be able to leave. Hero, save the others in the North, East, and West. I alone can not help you in stopping Majora, and all together, we can stop the moon from dooming this world. Before I forget, Skull Kid is innocent, for the most part. He is a mischievous being of the forest, but he never acted in a malicious sense until he got Majora's Mask. We forced him to leave after a prank of his went too far, none of it intended the way it went. He is still our friend, even if he doesn't know it. It broke our hearts to do it, but we had to. Save our friend, save the others, save Termina Link. You are our last chance." The giant says. I agree, and we are teleported back, into a room that has a plant cell behind me.

I cut the plants down, and meet the captured princess of the Deku Palace, and carry her back to the Palace, to calm the King down. The Princess beats the King, has the monkey released, and tells me to go to where the butler was waiting for me. Needless to say, I went to the butler and raced him and another mask. Telling him the location of his son, and explaining and comforting him when he learned of his son's death, I went to a nearby building that was a spider house, and cleared it out and got another mask. With nine masks in hand, at this point, and multiple people helped, and it's beginning to turn to the middle of the second day, I first return to the Swamp Great Fairy, and reunite the Fairies to its other half, and get my magic doubled from my first magic upgrade, making it insanely huge. I then decide to use the Song of Soaring to head to Clock town, so I can head to the Mountains, just to get a head start there and find out what I would be dealing with there.

The first thing I find when trying to go up the mountains is a wall of ice, which I destroy thanks to the floating icicle hanging above it. I go up the mountain, bomb a few giant snowballs, and eventually reaching the cleverly named, Mountain Village. Calling it a village would be a joke, as it was just one house, which was a blacksmith, and I see an owl statue, so I hit it and activate it, for easier travel purposes. Exploring the mountains a bit, I go through a path over a ice lake, and to an area where I assume gorons live, but because of the snow, there is no way in, minus a snowball that is just rolling around. I ignore it, and move to the giant Ice thing in the middle of nowhere, after following an owl to it. I enter it and get a second Len's of Truth, and use it to leave return to the area where I meet the owl, and meet a ghost named Darmani the Third, who guides me to his tombstone, which I end up playing the Song of Healing for him, and he turns into a mask, thanking me for healing him.

I pick up the mask, and I am transformed into a Goron form. I look like myself but as a younger-looking goron. I assume that since I am a child physically, I would reflect that form in this case. Moving the grave, and the room is flooded by Hot Spring Water, I bottle some up, and just start smacking giant snowballs, and finding an ancient goron by accident locked in ice. Quickly freeing him from the ice, so I just talk to him, and convince him that the gorons need help.

After an hour of convincing, and going to the Goron City to talk to his son, I get him to teach me the first half of a song that doesn't remember. I return to the Goron Elder's son and learn the rest of the song, which is called Goron's Lullaby, and the entire city is sent to sleep because of it. I leave the city, and head to Snow Head, as it is now the Third Day, but I also notice a goron on an ice ledge, get Rock Sirloin for him, and he gives me a mask in thanks, and then I wish to be able to go to it straight on the first day. As I reach it, I see the source of the Blizzard, a giant, invisible goron breathing with ice powers. I turn back to my Hylian form, and activate the owl statue for easy soaring to it. I then play the Song of Healing, and return to the First Day, to enter the Snowhead Temple.

Turning back into the Goron form, I play the Gorons Lullaby and put the giant goron to sleep, ending the blizzard protecting the temple. I roll to the temple and look around the area, find the Great Fairy Fountains location for the mountain. I eventually walk up a ramp to the entrance of the Temple and enter it.

As soon as I enter it, I am faced with a White Wolfos, which I quickly put down. I then am faced with a block that I wouldn't be able to move in my Hylian form, but can since I am in my Goron form. I go through a few room's gathering stray fairies and fighting enemies, I eventually get stuck. I eventually just jump down in the central pillar room, and land on the ground near lava, and find a switch I could ground pound into.

Over the course of the Temple, I fight enemies, solve puzzles, and enter a mini-boss room. The hylian like figure, called Wizrobe, comes out of a pillar, and runs around for a bit, before going back under to hide. It is a very easy, if not annoying battle, and I get the Fire Arrows, which will make it easy to transverse most of the temple. I eventually reach the top and gathered all the Stray Fairies, and once again, faced with Wizzrobe. I swear he was going to be the come back mini-boss for the adventure. Quickly beating him, and getting the Boss Key, I go run back to the path to the Boss Room, and enter the room.

As I enter the room, I notice two unstable walls, and a giant mechanical bull thing frozen in ice. I nock a fire arrow at it and release it. The ice melts, and the mechanical bull named Goht bellows breaks one wall and rams through the other and rams it as well. I then give chase by rolling in my Goron Form, the fight lasted to until the middle of the Second Day when it was heavily damaged, and a bomb got stuck in its bomb launcher, and it panicked, running around until the bomb exploded, and it rammed itself into a wall, getting crushed and destroyed by rocks. I get the feeling I will be doing this boss a few times to get everything needed. I grab Gohts remains, and I am teleported to the area where the Giants live, a world of a giant bubble bath.

"Hero, My southern brother told me about you, while you gathered the remains. Tatl, the fairy with you, will betray you very soon. After you leave me for sure. Tatl the fairy hates you, for a reason that is idiotic. She is under the impression that you caused Majora to take over the Skull Kid, our friend, and do what he has done up to now. Hero, if you were to put her in a bottle, one that will have our own connection to that will be put in your bag we will talk to her directly. Please, save our brothers Hero." The Giant says, sending me back to the Village. I use the Song of Soaring to return to the temple, and head to the fountain, who gives me an even more powerful sword spin. I go to where the Goron city is, and gain the ability to use powder kegs and go to the only house in the village, and learn that my sword upgraded to a razor sword, and I am told that I need something, to make the sword even better. I wasted a hundred rupees, but I now know that I need to go back in time to get something called Gold Dust to make my sword better, which I learned was at the Goron track, which is only open during when spring comes, so I use the Song of Time to return to the past.

Back on the first day, I quickly return to Snowhead Temple, and since I now have an easy way back to Goht, I just go in, and beat him easily, open the race track, and have my sword upgraded. I then race in the track while my sword is being upgraded to the Razor Sword, and win the Gold Dust, and have it upgraded to the Gilded Sword. I then play the Song of Time to return to the past, get a powder keg, and go to Romani Ranch, and help stop THEM, which I believe were aliens, and get another mask, and find and get Epona back. I then play the Song of Time again, to return to the past, getting a red potion, as I had a feeling I would need it, and finally go to the Ocean, riding on Epona.

That's when Tatl attempted to betray me. When I landed, she changed her flight path to try and knock me on the spike poles, which I was able to avoid, and I grab Tatl's wings and shove her in a bottle. "Now, I know I didn't say much of what she said throughout the story of my adventure through Termina, but if I were to say each statement about me, we would be talking for at least a month in just my first exploration in Clock Town Alone. That's why I didn't say each and everything she said, but to sum it up, she would say stuff like 'Useless boy, you can't do anything right' to ' Skull Kid wouldn't be in this situation if it wasn't for you', as well as a multitude of insults ranging from mild, to just outright disgusting. So I just kept most of it out of the adventure retelling, just to keep the story moving. Back to it." I say, explaining it.

With Tatl in the bottle, having to talk to the Giants by herself, I make my way into the bay, to see a flock of seagulls circling a Zora that was just floating in the middle of the bay, who I pushed to shore, to help him. He stands up slowly, and in severe pain from what I could tell, and he walked up to a stable part of the beach and just collapsed. He tells me he failed in getting Lulu's eggs back, and he wanted healing. So, I played the Song of Healing, and he seems to smile, seeing something I can't, as he fades away, leaving a guitar, which I make a grave for him, with his guitar as the marker for it. I then talk to a guy in a house, who tells me that his Gerudo picture is ruined, and he needs a new one for his own needs.

So, I head to the Pirates Fortress, and infiltrate it, finding a clock Town Guard who needs the red potion and could only be seen with the Lens of Truth. I happen to have the potion, give it to him, and receive the Stone Mask. This mask, as I find out, is the best not transforming mask, and I use it to infiltrate the Gerudo Fortress, and after learning that the Pirates don't have all the eggs, I make two trips throughout the Fortress, getting their hookshot, getting the Zora eggs, and taking them to a professor, and taking a picture of one of the pirates, who I give to the guy, in exchange for a sea horse, who guides me to the remaining eggs, and I learn the New Wave Bossa Nova. I look for the home of the Zora, and look for a bit, find it, and meet the one called Lulu, and hit the owl statue nearby. I talk to her, and find out she lost her voice in worry for her eggs. I try to tell her, but she either doesn't listen, or doesn't acknowledge it. I think for a bit, and realize that's what the Song I learned is needed for. To prove that she has to hear it, in order to believe it. I play the song as a Zora, she starts singing, and the island that was in front of us turned out to be a giant turtle. Never would have thought I would have said that, but it happened.

I use the hookshot to get on the giant turtle, and we travel to the Great Bay Temple. When we arrived I jumped off the Turtle, and thanked it for bringing me to the Temple, which it didn't have any problem with doing. I look around the room, light a few torches,, and get a chest. The Great Bay Temple I will say is a convoluted mess. It took was easily the second most confusing temple I ever went through. I spent half of the time swimming in the Zora form, just trying to find where the fuck do I go, while I also spent the other half of the time trying to make sure I checked everywhere, and get the stray Fairies while I was at it. It wasn't a hard temple, just confusing. I did get the Ice arrows for this adventure from the temple.

Eventually, I reached the Boss room, and the boss was a giant fish. It was easy in the beginning until it made the central platform sink, and then it basically became an underwater version of feed King Dodongo bombs, just a little more difficult mainly due to swimming and underwater shit. I quickly found out the fish's name was Gyorg, and I am transported to the bubble bath room again.

"Hero, thank you for freeing me. You have done well to come this far. Tatl... Is beyond help sadly. While once you release her, she will try to kill you again. Leave her in the bottle, until your journey is done, Hero. I am sorry I don't have much else to say to you, as anything I can say wouldn't be very helpful other than the ranch next to Romani's Ranch has something to help you in your quest." The Giant of the Bay says, before transporting me back to where I meet Lulu and the Giant Turtle.

After visiting the areas Great Fairy, I first play the Song of Time to bring me back to the first day, go around helping more people, and find myself with eleven not transformative masks, so I decide to go to where Romani's Ranch is, and go through the way, and race the brothers on Epona, beat them, and get the Garo's Mask. After that, I head west, to the final location, called Ikana Canyon.

As soon as I enter the canyon, I get chills, similar to the Shadow Temple chills. But I move on, knowing that I won't let a world with innocent people die just because I am afraid. I move forward, past a few jumps on Epona, and head left, as I didn't see a way forward, and the guy sitting on the cliff gave me a creepy feeling.

Entering the Cemetery, I see it is empty minus some bats and a grave keeper. I walk father along, and see the b-biggest skeleton I have ever seen. Oh Din help me. I really hope this isn't a Shadow Temple again. I read the tablet next to the damn skeleton, and it talks about awakening it. So I play the Sonata of Awakening, and it BREAKS the fucking stone bridge and starts walking away. I make chase, and after killing a few stalchildren, I catch up and beat the giant skeleton.

The Giant skeleton, after requesting a quick end of hostilities, makes me his commander basically and tells me the chest holds the Captain's hat, which will give me command of his restless troops. After two grave destroying nights later, I enter the grave that leads me to a room with a fucking Iron Knuckle. Needless to say, I beat it after a pretty tough fight. A ghost then appears, and teach's me the Termanian Song of Storms, and asks me to save his brother, who sold his soul to the devil.

After I leave that, I go to the cliff, and the guy on the cliff talks about a mask gotten from a ranch, and I figure it quickly that he is talking about the Garo Mask, which I wear, and he lets me through. After wandering the area, and using the hookshot to get to the top of the Canyon, I see four Gibdos circling a house, and a dry river. I decide to look at the source of the river and save a ghost who was corrupted by his own stupidity to selling his soul to the devil. After music plays, I exit the cave to see the Gibdos gone. So I decide to enter the house after a little girl left it, and find a half-man, half gibdo leave a closet in the basement. So I try the Song of Healing, and after a heartfelt family reunion, I get the Gibdo's mask, and I decide to head towards the only place I haven't gone to yet, The top of the area, and I also find the location of the last Great Fairy I need to help.

I then find a well, and I go down it, wearing the Gibdo's mask, and see the Gibdo's asking for stuff, but after realizing I was now the captain of their army, I assume, they let me go without stopping me. I eventually reach the enclosed castle, Ikana Castle, which was abandoned. After a bit of walking around, exploring, I eventually reach the Throne Room of the castle, and nearly have a heart attack. The beings waiting for me are actually living skeletons, not like Stalfos and Stalchildren. Actual fucking living dead people, moving around like they never died. At least it is just three of them and not an entire Temple of dead people coming to life.

After they reveal their one weakness, light, I use the Mirror shield to bring them to the light, and the King teaches me a song to allow me to enter the final temple, Stone Tower Temple. He told me thousands died trying to topple it, as it was the source of the curse on the land of Ikana and the only remaining remnant of the curse this world has. He admits that the ancients created the temple to insult the three Golden Goddesses, proclaiming the four giants were better than them. While most of the ancients agreed, some didn't and left to avoid the disaster they could see coming. Those that remained couldn't do anything to stop their greatest mistake, other than seal it away. The Majora's Mask. It was created to be the Ultimate fuck you to the Golden Goddesses, and be used to destroy their symbol of power, the Triforce. But because the Goddess was less than pleased with them, they essentially had most of them killed. The survivor's descendants are what populate this world, including what was once the might of Ikana, as they existed before they were born.

After learning that, I head to Stone Tower Temples entrance, and after a long and tough climb, I hit the owl statue to allow easy travel to it, and play the Song of Time to return to the first day, as it was nearing the night of the Third Day.

Because I knew once I finished Stone Tower Temple, I was going to go straight for Majora, I decide to finish gathering the remain side quests I could have done, which only was like 2 things. Getting the only masks I didn't have, one of them I assumed to be in the Temple, I complete the hardest quest, one that would take three days, and get two masks from it. The Keaton Mask and the Couples mask. I notice I have nineteen not transforming masks at this point, and three of the transforming kind, so I decide to buckle up and topple the Stone Tower.

I will say right now, the Stone Tower Temple is the third most creepy Temple I have ever explored, and the most confusing Temple, easily. Tons of backtracking, strange puzzles, and literal flipping of the temple, with a multitude of oddities in it. "To describe the Stone Tower Temple, is difficult, mainly because I necessarily can't describe some of the murals drawn on them." I say, about some of the tower's walls.

"I think this is the one case, where we should go without knowing. No matter how curious we are." Stunk says to my surprise. Then again, while he is a pervert like Zel, they at least have SOME ability to control themselves and read a mood. But I have a bad feeling about what those drawings could have been.

I start explaining the amount of walking in it, the backtracking, the number of times I use the Transformation masks, and the fact that it was HUGE. To explore the first part took two and a half DAYS. I only got through half of the Temple at that point! I did get the light arrows in the temple, to flip it, and once I got the idea of it, and see the temples stone blocks having their tongues beings weird to the Triforce, I played the Song of Time, just so I could explore the flipped Stone Tower Temple.

The flipped version, was harder than the unflipped, but that partly because now there was a lot of gaps, open-air, and if I fell, it wouldn't end well for me. I eventually faced off against a grim reaper that Majora corrupted, who thanked me for freeing it, and said it will not go after me, as it was against its rules to claim a soul before it's time, which its appearance was supposed to represent, and the fact that I freed it, would earn me a gift from it. My Sword went from its golden form, to a black, blue, and gold form.

"What I did to your sword, was give it the ability to force the dead and undead being to obey you, or to send them back to the afterlife or to help them move on from their deaths. There are only two blades that I know of, that are stronger than this one now. The Master Sword, since I can sense it's magical presence on you, and that one is because of its own unique creation, and the Great Fairy Sword. That one, you already can get since you have all the Stray Fairies of this Temple. Though, while those two swords are better for their own ways, the upgrade I gave your sword is unique for it can do what I said, while the others can't. Granted, one can create their own Great Fairy Tears with, which is the best for healing, while one is just a fuck you to beings and creatures made of, or are pure evil. The sword is also only tied to you, meaning it will only except you as a wielder. Anyone else who tries to use it will suffer increase health issues until they die or give it back to you. This is a thank you gift, and when you die, the sword will join you in death, as it will follow you through the flow of time. I can say that it will harm immortal beings quite badly, and force them to fall, not die, just fall to it. Though I can't say what will happen in that case, as I don't even know. But it is yours now, Hero of Time, and Savior of Termina. I recognize you as the Hero this land needs. Save the final giant, and teach Majora not to fuck with anything again." The Reaper says, before fading away into shadows.

More exploration, which wasn't much due to the Temple being almost completed, I eventually get the Boss Key and reach the Boss Room.

The boss, Twinmold was both easy, and irritating to deal with. The first part of the match was easy, just hit one with arrows until it died, leaving nothing behind. The second one on the other hand, was a nightmare. In order to fight it, I had to wear my twentieth mask, the Giant's Mask. No, it doesn't make me into a being like the Termina Giants, I just turned into a giant version of myself. Since I couldn't use my sword or shield, I had to use my fists and the environment against the remaining Twinmold.

NOT. EASY. The bastard flew around, firing fireballs, and was a general pain to hit at all. I got lucky a few times and realized the more I spun it, the more damage it would take. It took for spins, the first one was a slow spin, and I quickly learned from there, doing three fast and powerful spins, and defeated Twinmold. It was hell honestly.

I am then transported to the Giant's Bubble Bathroom. "Hero, you have freed the four of us. Tatl can only be released after Majora is defeated. Link, save Termina please! We can promise you to let you keep the masks you gained over this adventure, and their powers to stay, but if the Moon falls, we all will die. No one is safe. Not even us Giant's if it falls. Save Termina, save this land's people! Please." The Giant says, shocking me as it had tears coming from its eyes. "Hero, the Goddesses did curse this land because of the Ancients that created the Stone Tower Temple. I can tell you flat out I will destroy the Temple myself so that the Goddesses themselves know that Termina doesn't support such a thing at all. It was our fault that we let the Ancients think so highly of themselves, to the point that they believed us to be better that the Creators. Majora is one of the few remaining artifacts with power that the Ancients created. Either destroy or remove the power of it, but don't let it win Hero. We all are counting on you!" The Ikana Giant says, before teleporting me back into the main Canyon of Ikana.

I quickly run towards the Great Fairy Fountain nearby to reunite all the Stray Fairies to reform the final Great Fairy. The Great Dairy Reforms, and speaks to me. "Hero, I see you blade was blessed by the reaper Gregormy. You must have helped him immensely to bless it. By extension, he must of told you about the Great Fairy Sword, which I will give you in thanks. He also must have told you about its special power, so I ask you to not abuse it. Wield the sword, and save Termina!" The great Fairy says, giving me the Sword, which is too big for me to wield right now, but as an adult, I could easily. After thanking her, and leaving the fountain, I see it is the beginning of the Third Day, so I decide to head to Clock Town via Song of Soaring, and wait for it to become midnight.

It strikes midnight, and I shake in worry, anticipation, and sadness. Worry, because I don't want to fail the people of Termina. The living members are innocent of the crimes of their Ancestor, which I know that now. Anticipation, as I finally no longer have to worry about that moon after the equivalent of a month and a half of worrying about it. Sadness, as I know I won't return to Termina, as it isn't my land, and Termina will be better off without a person who seems to attract enemies capable of destroying lands. I might return to Hyrule after saving Termina, if all goes well.

I run up the stairs to the top of the Clock Tower, and see Majora and Tale looking at me. "Swamp, Mountain, Ocean, Canyon. Hurry, call the four who live there." Tale says, looking at me before Skull Kid smacks Tale, knocking him off the Clock Tower.

But I do just that. I play the Oath to Order. At first, nothing seems to happen. Then the roaring starts. A call to action among the Giants. They begin appearing from their respective locations of Termina, the Ikana Giant "accidentally" knocking over the Stone Tower Temple, destroying, as the walk up to the walls of Clock Town. They look at each other, then the moon, and roar challenge, before throwing their hands up at the moon, using magic and their own considerable physical strength, based on their shaking legs and arms, before the Moon is stopped in place, barley stopped before hitting the Tower, it's eyes gaining dead look to them like it's only purpose was stopped.

I look at Skull kid and see him passed out, but I know better. The Mask suddenly pops off his face. "A weak-minded puppet is of no use to me. Then again, neither is a fool trying to stop this lands fate of death. The Goddesses orientated this lands death Hero, and you won't stop it." Majora says in a feminine, yet evil voice, before flying up and EMPOWERING THE MOON! Its eyes, for a bit dull and dead, return to life glowing with rage, power, and desire to crush everything. I see the Giant's barely able to hold the moon, struggling to stay standing against the combined might of the Moons power, and Majora powering it up.

I see the path Majora left open, and I go into the moon. As I come to, I see it is like a field, a grassland with four playing children around the tree, and one sitting at its trunk. I speak to each one and realize why I had the not transformative masks. They were to be given, to prove once and for all, that Termina can let go of it's past and issues, for a better future. It was disguised as them wanting to play, but I could tell the true intentions as I went along.

Playing with each child, who wore one of the four masks of the bosses I fought, I am left with the Deku, Goron, and Zora mask, facing the final child. The one wearing the Mask of Majora. He gets up, says all I have left are weak masks, and I am given a mask so powerful, that I only consider it a last resort mask. The Fierce Deity Mask. Also known as the Oni Deity Mask. I didn't use it at first against Majora, as it wasn't necessary. That was, until the third phase. It was something I couldn't keep up with, almost as if it entered a realm of power beyond my own. I was forced to use the Fierce Deity Mask. Its power was enough to turn the third phase Majora into dust, and it was beaten. But using it was dangerous. Its power is enough to destroy a world if used improperly, and it only lets me use it. I swore not to use it unless absolutely necessary, and I still stand by that oath.

After Majora was beaten, I return to the Termina fields to see the citizens celebrating, about how the festival was still happening, and that the moon was stopped. The all but the Giant from the Swamp go back to their homes, and the Ikana Canyon one making sure to destroy the remains of the Stone Tower Temple, making sure it would never haunt the land of Termina again.

The Skull kid turned out to be the one I taught Saria's song to in the Lost Woods, and I release Tatl, who joins the group of Skull Kid and Tale, before leaving. All that remains is me, the Shigeru, who looks happy at me, and the Swamp Giant.

"Link, Hero of Time, and Savior of Termina. I thank you for not only keeping your end of our deal by ending the Darkness in the Mask. It will never bother anyone again. Return to Hyrule, after speaking to the Gaint of course." Shigeru says, before leaving, with his never-ending smile.

I then look towards the Giant. "Hero, you have saved Termina, and the Goddesses acknowledge that Termina will continue to exist. We, the people and guardians of Termina, thank you Link, Hero of Time,, and Savior of Termina!' The Giant of the Swamp roars, and the people cheer. I quickly get on Epona and leave Termina in embarrassment, as I didn't do it for the praise, but because it was the right thing to do. I quickly find out that the entrance was still under the Tower, and leave as it shifts away from the Clock Tower.

Leaving the entrance to Termina, I look back at the tree, and see the bag I held all the masks in, filled with them again, and a note from the Gaint saying "We keep our promises, Hero. Thank you for everything. May we cross paths on terms that don't involve the world ending." Swamp, Mountain, Ocean, and Canyon Giants.

The second adventure Link had, while not as gruesome as his first one, and I think Stunk, Zel, Crim, and I will agree that the Shadow Temple sounds like a place NO ONE should ever go to, I can't but feel pity for Link. While I can tell he doesn't want pity, he just tells it as it is, from what I am able to interpret. Crim is bawling at this point, so much sadness from the Story, while Stunk and Zel seem to be barely able to hold in their dinners. I notice I feel the same, and we agree to go to bed, to let us process this info dump.

Listening to Link tell it, and thinking on it makes me wish to give Link a hug. I really, really feel bad for him. Going through hell, watching beings get killed in front of you, losing your father figure, the Shadow Temples mess, and the betrayal, definitely messed him up more than he shows. In the morning, I plan on giving trying to cheer him up and be a true, good friend for him. He needs it, even if he doesn't realize it himself, as everyone, no matter the species needs someone they can rely on whether emotional, physical, or spiritual. I, Meidori will be his friend, and the one to prevent him from going into the darkness that he might be close to, and protect him from the perverts, and help him keep his innocence!

TLDR: Link had a fucked up life, the Shadow Temple was the most disturbing thing ever, and Meidori wants to keep Link innocent, and pure. Kinda like a cinnamon roll.

Jesus Tappdancing on a pogo stick in a barrel on the Titanic Christ. Again, this is just an Info dump chapter, and I told it through Meidoris perspective, mostly the parts where she is the one thinking. But yeah, now I can say that I posted this, and no longer people will have to look at the Child of The Moon to get an idea.

I hope to god to never have to create a super chapter like this again, even if it is Copy and Paste, with minor changes and cutouts. I hope you guys enjoyed this mess of an info dump.

Finished editing the errors at 4:10 AM CT. I will be going to sleep, then I will start the ACTUAL next chapter.
