Chapter Three: The Evil Wizard

Link was now in the throne room with Zelda and the King. The King spoke.

"Surprisingly, it has come to light that a magician is to blame for the disasters." He said matter-of-factly.

Link gasped. "You don't say? What must we do sire?"

"First, you must defeat the wizard, Link. He resides at the summit of Death Mountain. Go forth and exterminate him."

"As you wish Your Majesty!" After a quick bow to the king, Link spun and around and scuttled out of the room, itching to exterminate the evil wizard.

---

Our hero managed to climb the mountain without much trouble. He was at the edge of the crater now, which was filled with hardened magma. It was in the very center of the crater did Link see a mysterious cloaked figure. Link marched toward it at once, sword held high in the air.

"YOU THERE! WHAT BE YOUR NAME, AND WHAT BUSNIESS DO YOU HAVE HERE?"

The mysterious cloaked figure did not reply. Link concluded the mysterious cloaked figure was in fact the evil wizard. He continued approaching it.

"EVIL WIZARD, I SHALL EXTERMINATE THEE! IN THE NAME OF HIS MAJESTY, KING DAPHNES NOHANSEN HYRULE THE THIRD!"

Mysterious cloaked figure/evil wizard (who shall henceforth be dubbed MCF/EW) was still as stiff as a board. Link grew frustrated. He was now within a swordlength of MCF/EW. After a split second of thought, Link swung his sword and decapitated MCF/EW. It was then that Link realized that MCF/EW was nothing more than a wooden mannequin. Link looked at it's now detached wooden head, laying on the hardened lava.

"…Confound it!" Link sputtered, "That fool of a king led me up here to kill a mannequin. What a fool I've been! That man played me like a chess pawn! There is nothing here but hardened lava and a mysteriously cloaked dummy!" Quite disgruntled, Link left the crater in a huff. Little did Link know that there actually was an evil wizard. However, he arrived too late, for someone else had beat him to the punch. This person was Princess Zelda. Disbelieving in Link's abilities, she decided to finish off the wizard herself. She left the mannequin for Link, so he could think, if only for a moment, that he had killed the wizard himself. Link returned to the castle.
