*(Yes I know it's a bit confusing. and yes I know I probably have a few names wrong. mainly the three goddesses. I tried to include a little history about each little thing but that is hard. I tried to keep true to the Zelda game story and yet put a little of my own in there too. Please review and let me know if this is an ok history. And please let me know if I got anything wrong. If I did, I will be more then happy to change it and fix it.) *

The history of Hyrule is fragmented and unknown. The truth about Hyrule is hidden with blood shed and tears. You know of the three goddesses who came and created Hyrule and left their mark with the Triforce. What you don't know is why. Who were they? Where did they come from? Why create life? Most importantly, why leave such powerful relics for mindless power hungry mortals to find?

```````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````` `````````````````````````````````````````` Now before I tell you about the first defeat of Ganondorf, you must first know (or if you already know, this will be just a quick refresher). *(This chapter I received a lot of help and I would like to say thank you. However, I would like to thank Dourden the most. To be quite honest. The first part of this chapter is all thanks to him. If he had not of sent me an accurate history of the game I wouldn't of been able to finish this story. So tell him thank you and read some of his story's " ----- The Return of Great Evil------finished

--------Zelda's journey-- ----- not yet finished working on chapter 2 and going to rewrite ch1")

Here is the history you know from the game. The one link and Zelda has been repeating for the last six thousand years. ```````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````` `````````````````````````````````````````````````` Din, Nayru, and Farore created the world. Din, with her strong flaming arms, created the red earth. Nayru, poured her wisdom into the land and gave it order. Farore created the creatures that would uphold that order, (namely the Kokori children). Once their endeavors were completed, they returned to the heavens, leaving behind the sacred triangle, the Triforce, at the point where they exited the world. This area became known as the sacred land.

The Triforce has the ability to grant the wish of it's holder, thus deciding Hyrule's future. If one with a Black, evil heart makes a wish, Hyrule will descend into darkness. However, if one with a good, righteous heart makes a wish, Hyrule will experience a golden age of prosperity. The sages of old Hyrule to protect it from evil beings sealed the Triforce in the sacred realm. Several items are necessary to enter the sacred realm, The Kokori Emerald, The Gorons Ruby, The Zora's Sapphire, The Ocarina of Time; which is kept by the Royal family; And the master sword must be removed from it's pedestal.

The master sword is the final key, and the most powerful. Evil beings cannot touch it, as only its chosen hero can pull the blade from the pedestal. After the Princess Zelda sent the young Hylian Link to retrieve the Spiritual stones; the Kokori emerald, Gorons ruby and Zora's sapphire; She threw to him the Ocarina of Time as she fled the castle from Ganondorf (Ganons true name, He's only Ganon at the end of the game, when he's a beast). Link went and withdrew the master sword and opened the sacred realm. Unfortunately, link was too young to wield the master sword and to defeat Ganondorf, so his spirit was sealed away in the temple of light for seven years.

Upon awakening, he Met Rauru, the sage of light, and received the Light temples medallion; which held the power of the sage. Rauru explained to Link what had happened in his seven-year absence. After Link had opened the door to the sacred realm, and was sealed away, Ganondorf seized the Triforce, and made his wish. Fortunately, the Triforce had one more defense against evil. It split into three separate parts, scattering to destined carriers.

Ganondorf kept the piece that most resembled his soul and believes, Power. The other two pieces; Courage and Wisdom; went to Link and Zelda respectively. Zelda had remained in hiding, and Ganondorf Quickly conquered Hyrule. The sages of Hyrule fell into a state of sleep, unable to contend with Ganondorf's evil. Links quest was to go to temple to temple, awakening each sage, and collecting the medallions. Five temples were scattered in Hyrule; Forest, Fire, Water, Shadow, and Spirit.

Zelda helped Link in his quest by appearing to him as Sheik, the Sheikah warrior, and teaching him songs that would take him to the temples gates. All the sages turned out to be people from Links childhood that he knew and loved. Saria, his friend in Kokori Forest, was the forest sage. Darunia, leader o f the Gorons and Links sworn brother, was the fire sage. Ruto, the princess of the Zora's and Links self-proclaimed fiancée, was the water sage. Impa, Zelda's caretaker and last true Sheikah, was the shadow sage. And Nabooru, leader of the Gerudo and Ganondorf's second in command, was the Spirit sage.

Ganondorf had several evil minions guard each temple, to prevent the sages from being awakened. Phantom Ganon guarded the forest temple, Volvagia the fire dragon guarded the fire temple, Morpha the shape changing water beast guarded the water temple, Bongo-Bongo the invisible shadow guarded the shadow temple, and the twin sisters, Kotake and Koume guarded the spirit temple.

After awaking the sages, Link had to confront and defeat Ganondorf. Link easily beat Him, but Ganondorf's tower collapsed, With Link and Zelda barely escaping with their lives. Ganondorf was not dead however, and used the Triforce of Power to transform into Ganon, a huge hideous beast of incredible power. Link tried to attack directly but lost the master sword out side the Ring of Fire erected by Ganon.

He had to use the light arrows given to him by Zelda to freeze him, then hit his sensitive tail, after retrieving the master sword, link struck down Ganon, and Zelda was revealed to be the mysterious Seventh sage. (In case I lost you here, here is a list of all sages; Rauru, Saria, Darunia, Ruto, Impa, Nabooru, and Zelda.) Ganon was sealed away in the sacred realm, and link was sent back in time by Zelda to live out his childhood. The two met again at approximately the same time period.

**************************************************************** *Ok now here is the true history. The first defeat of Ganondorf is as follows. * ************************************************************

Before Hyrule, before the three came, before everything. There was a Kingdome on the very same land where Hyrule of the present now exists. However, back than they were not known as Hyrulians they were known as Sheikens. They were very intelligent, strong, and had a strong sense of judgment.

They were a peace loving culture. Yet, they were feared for there skills of stealth, and agility. It was once said that a Sheikan could kill a man a hundred times before the man ever knew he was dead. However, that was not the Sheikan way. They embraced wisdom over everything ells.

In the Sheikan society. The weakest was at the top. Meaning the most intelligent and elderly. While the strongest was at the bottom. The stronger the Sheikan the lower there rank in the Sheikan society. To them being smart was more powerful than being strong.

However, the ruler of the Sheiken's has had to be both smart and strong. It was said that only one family line carried both traits. They also could use magic, something that not many Sheiken's could do. The royal Sheikan family also had one unique trait. The trait of immortality. The royal family can not die of natural causes. However, they can be killed by unnatural causes.

The strongest and most powerful of the Sheikan royal family was named Oni- link. He was tall for a Sheikan and very well built. If he was not of royal blood he would be the lowest form of the Sheikan society.

He was a good king with a good heart. His wife on the other hand was not. She was cruel and wicked. She wonted to be the ruler and nothing was going to stop her. It is believed that she was the one who opened the door for evil.

She was not of Sheikan blood but was from another race of people far away Her race of people was called Gerudo's. . Her hair was bright flaming red. Her eyes were purple and her skin was deeply tanned. The king met her on a trip to open more trade routs. At first she was charming and caring. However, when he married her she soon showed her true nature.

Then it happened one night. The queen sacrificed their only child. By doing this, she let an evil so terrible and so dark into her body. It made her figure ugly and dark. She had the powers of a god and she used them to her pleasure.

Soon she became the new ruler and all that was once peaceful was now dark and terrible. She killed many Sheiken's just for the fun of it. In addition, she forced work onto them. Soon it became so bad even the king left his Kingdome. He had to run in secret.

He knew that only one person could help him now. He was heading for the temple of the Sheikan God. He knew the god would help him. It took him seven nights and seven days to reach the temple but when he arrived, he was horrified to find it in rambles. Apparently, his wife already beat him to it.

He walked the rubbles and threw his mighty sword down onto a pedestal in anger. (This sword will later be known as the masters sword) he then fell to his knees and begun to pray to his god. Through his prayer and tears, he felt a gentle hand on his shoulder. When he looked up, he saw a woman of great beauty looking down at him.

"I am the god you seek, I live not in a building nor do I ignore the cry of my people. My dear king why have you came hear and why is this temple in such disarray?"

The king told her everything. He told her about his wife and how she brought on the evil. He told her how the land was before her and how it is after her.

"I can not do anything for your people. The evil you speak of is too strong for me. I would only cripple it but it would come back stronger then before. The only way you and I could finally destroy the evil is if we produced a child of your strength and my powers."

The king was not willing to leave his people. However, he was willing to get rid of there pain. So he agreed. What he did not know is that he would be the father to seven important figures in both Sheikan and Hyruleian history.

The Sheikan goddess took the king into her realm and she loved him as if a mortal wife would. She knew he would never poses the true powers of a god. Sadly when she brought him into the sacred realm. He lost all his powers of immortality. Nevertheless, she loved him non-the less.

Their first child was a girl named Impa. She looked like a true Sheikan female. However, she was born with a strange birthmark over one of her eyes. It resembled the eye of truth. A sacred symbol known to the Sheiken's. It is said that who ever looks upon this eye will have to tell the truth no matter what the consequences.

As she grew older it became apparent she possessed great powers of a goddess. Powers even to this day I know nothing of. She was not only immortal. However, she had the power to vanish with only a simple flash of light. And she was very athletic.

The goddess's second pregnancy produced nearly identical triplet girls. They too had unique god like powers. The first of the three was named din. She had the power to recreate land and produce fire. The second was named Nauru. She was harder to figure out what her power was. She had a great sense of judgment and knowledge. When ever she was around everything seamed fair and right. She never fought with her siblings. Rather knew how to get what she wonted. The third child was very special. Her name was Farore. She had the power to create any kind of life imaginable. She could also destroy life.

When the triplets were born the king and the goods knew something strange was happening. Their first child could get the truth from any one, and the three triplets could create a New World with order if they wished. However, the king and the goddess knew that this was not enough children. They had to have more with the Sheikan blood to gain back the land the evil god had so cruelly taken away.

Their third pregnancy was a blessing. The queen gave birth to a girl. She was nothing like a Sheikan. She had Blond hair, and blue eyes. She was very fair skinned and had a princess like air to her attitude. The goddess names her Zelda.

At first, the king and the goddess were not sure if they should produce another child. Butt they did anyway. And it produced one boy. His name was sheik. In honor of the Sheikan people. It was when this child was born the king became ill due to his old age. He knew he would not live long but he so wonted to see his people brought back.

The goddess knew the king was getting ready to die and she was not about to let it happen. She knew that what she was about to do would cause her love to become immortal. Not in a living way, but in a suspended sleep way.

When he was asleep, she knew she had to do it. She turned him into a mask and put him into an eternal slumber. The only way he would awake is if some one wore the mask. Only then would he be awake to see the world through the eyes of the wearer. He would not be able to control his body unless it was his own blood running through the wearers' veins.

The goddess then hid the mask so that non-of her children would be able to find it. She then told them he passed away in his sleep and she sent him off. The only one who knew other wise was Impa. However, she knew why her mother wonted it to be kept a secret. Therefore, she said nothing to her siblings.

Finally, the army of the Sheiken's was complete. The goddess told the children when they were older about the evil that took over the land. The children knew what they needed to do and they left the safety of the sacred realm.

When they arrived to the Sheikan world there, was nothing left? Only a few Sheiken has lived but they were servants of the dark lord. Their lives were hollow.

Impa and Sheik knew they would have to do the physical fighting. And the three triplets knew they had to use their powers against them. The youngest of all the children was told to stay back and they would do the fighting.

It took them awhile to find Ganondorf's castle. When they did find it. They saw it was floating on the hot air from the lava below. They did not know how to cross to the castle at first. Then it was Zelda's idea to put there powers together and form a bridge. Once completed the bridge was very beautiful in contrast to the castle. It seamed to shimmer with many different colors and it was as clear as glass.

When they entered the castle, they were immediately attacked. They fight hard and soon won that small battle butt at a price. When they looked around, they found that their youngest sister was gone. Apparently, Ganondorf had taken her captive. Now the siblings had a very good reason to get to Ganondorf and destroy him.

They found many flights's of stairs that led up. It took them at least three days to make it to the top but they did. When they got to the very top, they heard organ music playing and the screams of their youngest sister.

When they opened the door, they found Ganondorf was onto of her forcing his self upon her. The family of siblings were outraged and they attacked with out warning. They were mad now and nothing was going to stop them.

It took them no time at all to destroy Ganondorf. As he died he smiled his wicked grin and set a curse. The child of a raped goddess will have my soul. Any New World you create I will destroy with a bloody iron fist. I can not be destroyed only weekend....... Those were his dying words as his body turned to dust.

When they went to their youngest sister, they found out the evil gods curse will happen. For she was indeed pregnant with child.

At first, the children did not know whether they should or should not create a new land. However, their mother reassured them.

She told them to take Zelda and her child. Recreate the land and there sister with child. That would mean killing Zelda and giving her a new life in a New World. She would have no memories of the evil king. Ganondorf on the other hand would still keep his curse. However, Zelda would not have to carry a child for him. He too would be reborn into the New World.

So doing as they were told the three goddesses recreated the land and its people. They could not however recreate the Sheiken's. There was something about the Sheiken's that could not be created. Therefore, they created many new races. However, the ones who were most like the Sheiken's were the Hyruleian's. When they created the new land Farore had a little fun and she also created new species and races.

However, something odd happened. When they recreated Hyrule something ells was created with it. It was as if the very land it's self created another life form. A new soul to protect it's self. When the sisters saw the new being, they were amazed to see he was an almost exact lookalike of their father.

The new soul seamed to connect it's self to Zelda. In addition, Zelda's child disappeared. What happened they couldn't explain or understand. However, they did know that whatever it was. It was helping protect Zelda and the new Hyrule. It was because this new spirit seemed to link it's self to everything Hyrule was and every one in it. They nicknamed the new spirit link.

When they were finished, they left Hyrule for the sacred realm. As they left, the souls of Zelda, link, and Ganondorf. Letting their souls took shape of a Triforce. Meaning they would never be born separately. Even if the Triforce were divided they would still be drawn to each other. . As a way, too safe guard the Triforce. The goddesses left a part of their souls behind to take form and protect the sacred realm and the Triforce. In doing so, they also created six seals that took form as sages. The first sage was the forest sage, or better known as Saria. Saria is a part of the Goddess Farore (I think that is the green one). The second sage was Nabooru. The Desert Gerudo also Ganondorf's second in command. She too possessed the partial soul of Din. The third sage was Ruto. A Zora princess from the sacred waters of Hyrule. She had the partial spirit of Farore. The fourth sage was Rauru. A mysterious man from another part of the sacred realm. The fifth sage was an intelligent Goron named Darunia. Finally the sixth sage was non the less Impa. She volunteered her self so that she could help link awake the other five sages if needed. However once you had all the sages together, they still would be powerless to open the sacred realm. They were merle locks on a door. To open them you needed a key.

The key would have the power to control the other six sages. So the power was created but a host couldn't be found. Finally, it was Zelda who was willing to sacrifice her self to that position. And the seal on the sacred realm was complete. The sages and Zelda were now no longer free souls. But poor souls that were burdened with the task of keeping guard. Even if it meant giving up there own lives. They were immortal. Only to a certain extent. They could live on forever but if they take there own life then their souls are banished from Hyrule. They would be reborn elsewhere. And if they by some odd chance make it back to Hyrule then the sacred realm can be opened.

It was Sheik's idea to use the ocarina. He created all of the songs and he placed musical anomalies all around Hyrule where link would find them. Sheik then created two Ocarinas'. The nicer one was specially made for Zelda. In addition, the not so great one was made for link. Sheik purposely gave it to the forest sage knowing she would teach link how to use it. He also was the one who asked his sister Farore to create the guardian monsters that protected each of the separate temples the sages stayed at.

Impa and Sheik were left behind to help care for Zelda and make sure Ganondorf would not fulfill his prophecy entirely. In an effort to keep him from making this prophecy so. The goddess made her own curse. When ever Zelda and her siblings would destroy Ganondorf. They would only have three years of peace and happiness before having to go back into time and start over from the beginning. That way no matter what. Ganondorf wouldn't be able to get stronger then the Zelda. When they have done this seven thousand times. The siblings would remember what had happened and they would destroy Ganondorf and his spirit once and for all.

However, before she was able to make this curse so she had a vision. It was of the new spirit her children called link. He was much stronger then all of her children put together. He was more protective and courageous then any immortal or mortal she has ever met.

Therefore, she decided to change the curse to only include link and Zelda. She also realized this was destined to occur. If Zelda had not gotten taken by Ganondorf. Then the new spirit Link would of never of been formed. She knew her husband was exerting power from his mask and that was why Link looked so much like him. Maybe Link is his way of seeing his Old World become a New World. She would never know. However, she did come to realize the spirit that formed it's self into link was the spirit of Hyrule it's self. The only other place where Hyrule's spirit seamed to be it's strongest was at a gigantic tree she called the great Deku tree.

The great Decku tree is kind of like Hyrule's central point. The place where even her powers were numbed and she became week. It seemed to pull away any kind of magic or power you have and turn you immortal. She only saw the spirit take form once. Moreover, the spirit was so powerful she had no words of explaining how it looked or what she felt. Only that link was some how a part of that tree.

She also helped her daughter create all of the guardian forces to the spirit temples. She made very monster harder then the last one. Eventually letting link gain strength as he made his way to his final battle with Ganondorf. Mostly the journey link travels through to get to Ganondorf is already preplanned for him. It is like a training ground for his final test. That is why the Goddess to all the healing fairies all around Hyrule. She wonted to make links journey easy, yet challenging.

That is why whenever link begins a new journey it seams as if everything falls into place. He gets the right thing at the right time. He sees certain things at just the right moment. Nothing is coincidental. Everything is already planed out and ready for him.

Finally, the last part of my tail is about sheik and Zelda. They were very close siblings. Sheik would lay down his life for his sister. It was he who had the Goddess pull his soul and let Zelda take over his body when she needed to hide from Ganondorf. Ganondorf had no awareness of sheik so he couldn't find his body. When ever Zelda would take over his body his soul and her body were sent to the sacred realm and laid to rest for however long Zelda keeps his body. Sheik will have no memories of what has happened or what Zelda has done. In addition, if she gets killed in sheiks body. Sheik will be forever destined to live the rest of his life in the body of his sister.
