Chapter 12
The large monkey floated over the water looking down on us. The golden light emantated from his sacred form brilliantly.
" And who are you, brave one? You were the one who rescued the Twili and Hero. Why is this?" he mused gently.
" I had to, Ordona sent me to find the Hero of Twilight and the honorable Twilight Princess," I said quietly. He was way bigger than I thought.
The spirit nodded his head and floated back over to his spring, a thoughtful expression pasted on his face.
" Yes, it seems natural that you would be able to break the curse. But there is something you should know…." said Faron.
"What's that?" asked Link.
" The legend of the Passage of Soul."
"The what?" asked Midna.
Faron took his time before saying, "The Passage of Soul is a powerful force that has been around since the three goddesses descended upon Hyrule. Zelda, you have used your Earth power have you not?"
I reached into my tunic and got the Earth Soul that Ordona gave to me. The Soul levittated gently in my palm. It glittered and shone with immense light.
" I think so. When I couldn't get across the fog, a big root came up from the earth, it bended to my will because I not only wished for a way, but because I needed it."
Faron nodded his head. I returned the Soul back into my tunic and focused my attenion to the spirit.
" Yes," he said, in his heavenly voice, " That is the reason why you were able to use your Earth power.
But you must know why. Now close your eyes young ones and let yourself mingle with the long past times……."
We closed our eyes like the spirit instructed.
At first nothing happend, but when Faron began to speak once more, a vision of early Hyrule appeared in my mind. To my surprise, the whole field was littered with Pokemon. Fields of beautiful flowers and trees spred across the land. The Pokemon were alive and healthy, enjoying the day. But there two that really caught my attenion.
They were two dragon- like pokemon I knew about: The Eon Pokemon Latias, and her brother Latios.
Latias' eyes were sea-green, just like mine. Faron's voice echoed in my mind, starting to tell a tale.
" Hyrule was once known as a place where the creatures known as the Pokemon lived.
The two red and blue dragons you see down there were blessed by the Goddesses of Hyrule.
The blue one name is Latios and the red one is Latias.
The Goddess of Courage blessed Latias with something called the Soul Force, which gave her the power of the six Elements. Her brother, Latios, was blessed by the Goddess of Power. She gave him a sphere that held his very soul.
This sphere was known as the Soul Dew," Faron paused.
"Everything was peaceful, until the war with the Twili broke out. It was kwon as the War of the Ancients. Many people and Poekmon died during the fierce battles that raged across Hyrule.
Latias, who knew about the on coming battle, took her Soul Force, and fled. Her brother, Latios, didn't know about the battle that was coming and therefore he met a horrible fate…."
I watched as the blue dragon was caught in a crossfire, he was holding his gift. Around him many people were clashing swords and Pokemon attacked.
Latios despreately tried to get away from the large battle, in doing so the Soul Dew in his grasp exploded into thousands of shards.
" Latios' Soul Dew was broken in the crossfire and he should've died then and there but he surrived," Faron said, seriously.
The vision faded and Link, Midna, and I were back at the spring. Excepted I was on my knees and panting too. I looked down at my reflection. Sweat formed on my brow and I was trembling. " I don't get it," said Link, puzzled as to why I was in my current position. " If Latios lived then shouldn't his sister be happy that he did?"
"No," I said, my voice shaking.
Midna and Link looked at me with worried glances.
" What do you mean by 'no'?" Midna asked.
She floated down in front of me. I continued to look down.
Then I said very shakily, " T--the Soul Dew…. It contained Latios' soul. If it was ever destroyed, then the Pokemon it was connected to would also be destroyed… If Latios lived, then it means only one thing……. That Latios has been driven mad by the fact that his soul was destroyed."
Faron nodded once again, gravely.
" Yes, That is correct Zelda. When Latios' soul was the destroyed, he not only went mad, but he was corrupted by evil will. And he set himself to find Latias and get her Soul Force. But she hid herself. When Latios could not find her, he made this statement, ' When the time comes, a female descendent of your line shall inherit your Soul Force, and a male descendent of my line will inherit my power, and when these two met, the doom of Hyrule will begin.'
Zelda, you are Latias' chosen descendent."
Ok! Didn't see that comin' did ya!? Well you know what to do!
