After Link and the family set up camp with the guards in tents surrounding them.
"I wonder who could have sent Chief Elder Vegt a telepathic communication to bring the kids with us." Link asked Midna, "I mean I am really suspicious about that."
"Just try to relax sweetheart this is going to be like vacation for us which we haven't had ever since we became the rulers of the land of Twirule."
"You're right I am overreacting."
"Do you really want to know who sent the message." A voice said from behind them.
They turned and there was the Spirit of Midna's Father
Link bowed at the sight of Midna's father the former King Vern
"Father," Midna said, "How did you know where we were?"
"I have been following you since you left the castle."
"So who is behind that voice?" Link asked.
"Her name is Niari," Vern replied.
Link and Midna looked at each other like the name means something important
"You mean Niari the Goddess of Time," Midna asked.
Vern nodded his head, "Yes the Twili counterpart to Hylia."
Now Link was shocked that Midna's father has heard of the Goddess Hylia.
"Yes Link, I have heard of the Goddess Hylia from Midna."
Midna smiled looking at Link's face knowing that her father was reading his mind.
"So Niari is no threat to us." Link asked, "Because she seemed to want us to take our kids on a trip."
"That makes sense for Niari really loves children." Vern replied, "I also think that she is really curious about how Half-Breeds are like."
"Does she often make herself known to the Rulers of the Twilight realm." Midna asked.
Vern shook his head, "The only one he has seen the Goddess Niari face to face and has actually communicated to her was the very first ruler of the Twilight Realm."
"So let me get this straight," Link stated. "We are the first ones since the first ruler to hear from the goddess of time."
Vern nodded his head. "Yes, that may be the case here, except she didn't communicate to you directly but through Chief Elder Vegt."
"But do you think we would actually be communicated to by her." Midna asked.
Vern shrugged his shoulders, "I am actually not very sure if you will get communicated to by her or not but either way consider it a very big honor as rulers to be led to the Temple of Time."
After Vern said that he disappeared. Link and Midna looked at each other and noticed the the kids were already asleep.
"Was that real?" Link asked.
Midna nodded her head, "Yes that was real but now I think that my father calmed your nerves about taking our children on this trip."
"Especially if it is Niari." Link replied, "Yes he did, calm my nerves"
"That's my father for you."
Link and Midna stared at the Twilight sky and pretty soon they fell asleep.
Link looked around him and noticed that Midna wasn't next to him but he looked ahead and saw a Twili standing in front of him.
"So you are the one who saved my precious Twilight Realm," The figure said.
"I couldn't have done it without Midna's help."
"That is nice that you are humble about it but the sols trusted you a light dweller to save the Twilight Realm from Zant."
Link looked down as the figure turned around. Once he looked up he noticed that the figure looks so much like Midna except that she has a golden glow about her.
"You are wondering who I am." The figure said, "Well, if that's the case I am Niari the Twili Goddess of Time."
Link was shocked to her that it was Niari.
"My sister was right to choose you to bear the Blade of Evil's Bane."
Link was confused, "Wait, Hylia is your sister."
Niari nodded her head, "Yes once the Goddesses sent the Twili into the Twilight Realm I was chosen to become the keeper of time in the Twilight realm."
"So what is your job as the keeper of time," Link asked curiously.
"Well my job is to make sure that it stays twilight and to protect the Rulers of The realm which that includes you and Midna now and you will be the last rulers that I will protect because you are the Sols chosen eternal rulers of the Twilight Realm so I decided to call you to my temple with your children so that I could reveal myself to all of you."
"Thank you for the honor of being able to see you."
"You are very welcome." That was the last thing she said as the dream faded out. Once Link woke up he noticed that Midna wasn't beside him so he got up and put on his traveling robes and walked out to see that Midna was fixing breakfast.
"Remember we used to do this back in the Realm of Light." Midna asked.
Link nodded his head, "Yes, except that time I was the one to cook the food."
"Yeah because I didn't want to scare people in the realm of light especially what the shadow beasts did to them when they were under Zant's rule."
"True, but if they got to know you like I did then they wouldn't be afraid of you."
"Not exactly, do you remember what Talo said when we went to Ordon village to introduce them to our daughter and also to me."
Link thought about that for a moment. "Oh yeah, I do remember him calling me a traitor because I married into the people he hurt everyone in the village and especially Ilia."
"So, now you see why I didn't show my face even after Zelda sacrificed herself to save my life."
Once the smell reached the tent of the children Twila came out walking Atra out with her hand.
"Well, they sure know when the food is ready just like you." Midna told Link.
"Yeah, I am pretty sure they got that from me because always back in Ordon Village at the smell of Uli's cooking I would always come running to her house to eat her cooking."
"Mom, I didn't know that you knew how to cook." Twila said, "Well Dad, I knew you could cook."
Link looked to Midna wondering how she figured out that he knew how to cook.
I told her that when we were on our journey that you would cook for the both of us. Midna told Link telepathically.
Oh, so that's how she knew.
"On my free time I have been watching Chef Valt cooking his dishes." Midna replied, "While you were away at Avra's place doing your tutoring and your father was in meetings that I didn't have to be at."
"Is that so you could cook for dad whenever we did something like this." Twila asked.
Midna nodded her head, "I mean he did cook for me a lot when we were on our quest to save Hyrule and the Twilight Realm from both Zant and Ganondorf."
"I remember hearing about Zant from Avra in her history lesson but I don't know what Ganondorf was like."
"Well, for on thing Ganondorf wasn't from the Twilight Realm." Link started telling the Tale of how Hyrule came to be. "Ganondorf was a Gerudo and all female race but once every one hundred years a male is born to them and he would became the King of the Gerudo."
Midna took over for some of it. "Once Ganondorf was an adult he tried to befriend the King of that time to get access to the sacred realm."
"Then the Hero of Time opened up the sacred realm but he was too young to claim the Triforce so Ganondorf entered the sacred realm and took the Triforce for himself."
"So he became the ruler of Hyrule." Twila asked.
Link shook his head. "Not exactly. You see when Ganondorf touched the Triforce it split into three pieces. Ganondorf kept the Triforce of Power, the Triforce of Wisdom went to Zelda and the Triforce of Courage went to Link the Hero of Time."
"Mom, is this the same Zelda that saved your life."
Midna shook her head, "No, but she is an ancestor of the one that saved my life."
"Dad, did you have the Triforce of Courage."
Link nodded her head, "Yes I was chosen by the Goddesses of Hyrule to save Hyrule from evil by giving me the Triforce of Courage, but I didn't know it until the Twilight invaded Hyrule and I turned into a wolf instead of a spirit."
"So you are able to be in the Twilight Realm because you were chosen by the goddesses to save Hyrule."
"Not exactly, the sols chose me and your mother to be the eternal rulers of twilight, but I really love it here because for one I loved your mother and second it was peaceful here as well."
"So you don't want to go back to the realm of light."
Link shook his head. "No, and besides I can't even go back there because the Goddesses of Hyrule told me that I couldn't ever return there because I decided to live here in the Twilight Realm."
"But I remember you taking me when I was little." Twila said confused, "Also you took Atra there as well."
Midna looked to Link wondering for sure if he should tell them the part of the reason why they can't return to the Realm of Light.
"Well that is part of the reason some of them see me as a traitor because I wanted to stay in the Twilight Realm. Also the ones who took care of me are no longer alive."
"So the reason they said that is because they didn't want you to be in pain of remembering the ones who took care of you."
Link nodded his head. "Yes, also I am no longer a resident of Hyrule, I am a resident of the Twilight Realm."
After this conversation Link, Midna, the two kids and the guards continued on their travels.
