-Rina.


Kia woke up with a god awful headache. That was to be expected though, after all, she did pass out from a bright light. She rubbed her head when a particularly delicious smell caught her attention. Sitting up, she looked around, taking in her surroundings. From the looks of it, she was in someone's bed. Her long black hair was tied up and out of her way in a long braid. Interesting... Where am I? She thought, looking around some more. The bed was on a small ledge, a ladder leading downwards. A slow draft ran along her bare chest. Wait... Bare?! She looked down to find herself completely in the nude. A gasp of shock left her lips as she tugged the quilt up around her naked body. Why am I naked? What's going on here? She thought, looking around. Then she noticed him, a young elf boy off to the side on a chair. He was playing a strange instrument, something close to an ocarina or a flute. She made a slight sound that made him jump. He looked at her in surprise and then smiled.

"Don't be scared miss knight. My name is Link."

Kia looked at the elf boy in surprise, her dark blue eyes widened with shock. "I'm not a knight, I'm a Grey Warden." she replied. He gave her a confused look so she continued quickly. "Oh, that's a special Fighter that is made to battle Darkspawn and stop a blight."

"A blight? Like the twilight blight? What's a Darkspawn? Was that what those monsters were called?" the elf boy began to assault her with questions. Kia stared at him, wondering how he could hold so much energy. He was polite and kept his face up, looking her in the eye instead of at her bare skin. She stared down to see the blanket had fallen once again.

"Uhm, excuse me Link? Where are my clothes?" she asked, pulling the blanket up once more.

"Oh, well. When I found you, you had on only an under dress and that was sorta..." he trailed off, looking to the side with a grimace.

"Sort of... What?" Kia pressed on, blinking. Her deep ocean blue eyes met his sky blue ones.

"Destroyed when I transported you here. I had to turn into a wolf and it was really hard you know. You wouldn't fit on my back so I had to drag you to where Epona was. She was too spooked to go near those Darkspawn things." He finished, his cheeks coloring with embarrassment.

"I see. Where am I at anyways?" She asked, curious about her surroundings. She didn't remember where she had been dragged from the deep roads. All She remembered was being attacked and draggd away, deep down within the tunnels. She had been crying out for her husband the whole time they tortured and maimed her.

"Ordon Village. I found you in one of the caverns of Death Mountain while I was searching for Cor Goron." He replied matter of factly.

"And where is Ordon village? What country?" kia asked again, confused out of her mind. Many thoughts crossed her mind. The most important one was: How was she not dead? The taint had become so strong that she was sure her time had already passed. Before she could stop herself, she blurted out "How am I not dead yet?"

Link smiled and continued on, as if she hadn't asked him anything at all. "You're in Hyrule! As for not dying, the spirit healed you. Its complicated."

"Please explain." the knight lady said to him. So, he explained to her about Hyrule and the past few years when he had finally come of age. "I see," she said when he finished "so there must be magic involved. Possibly old magic from the fade."

"the fade...?" He asked, wondering what that was.

"Ah, the fade is a realm where we go when we sleep. We also go there when we die possibly." The elven knight explained. "Listen, link. I'm cold. Do you have any other clothes?"

"oh right! Yes I do miss knight!" he replied, going over to a ladder.

"It's Kysanthium." She replied. Link's face instantly dead panned. "Kia for short."

"Ah. Kia. Pretty name." Link replied in good spirits. He then climbed down the ladder and came back up with a white tunic and green pants. "These were all I have. Sorry I couldn't get you something nicer. I'm sure Uli would be glad to sew up some clothes for ya though. She made mine out of goat fur. Sturdy stuff it is."

"Thank you, Link." Kia smiled softly. It took link a second before he turned around, heading down the ladder once more.

"No problem miss. Just climb down that ladder once you're ready to go okay?"He said before dropping the rest of the way.


Kia headed out of the house, not bothering to use the ladder and instead dropping down the small drop. It wasn't bad and she dropped to her feet almost seconds afterwards. She rolled her limps and got a good look, they seemed to have been in a forest area, the whole place smelled of fresh cut wood. She turned to her left to see a lovely russet mare with a creme colored mane picketed to a wooden post. The horse looked at her and gave a slight neigh before stomping her front left hoof. "Hello pretty girl. I'm a friend, no worries." Kia said, holding up her hands. She took a handful of some nearby hay and held it for the horse to sniff. Link followed down the ladder, saying something she didn't quite hear. "I'm sorry?"

"Oh, I was just saying that we should see the spring spirit that healed you. He ought to know what to do next." Link replied, rubbing the back of his head. "Epona likes you, she usually doesn't like anyone I talk to. That's a good sign." He grabbed her by her hand and pulled her forwards, leading her through a small forest path to an open spring. There was a small water fall as well as a large group of tribal stones. The moment they stepped in, a voice sounded from he center of the spring.

"Link, Kysanthium. Welcome to Hyrule dear child of light." the voice spoke.

"Whoa! Where is that coming from?" Kia asked, looking around. The stone's markings began t glow as the spirit's orb formed. Next came a pair of horns, followed by the body of the Goat spirit.

"I am Ordon. The spirit of light that guards this region. You have been brought here through a special hole in the realms called a slip hole. However, the demons that brought you here have begun to pour into this world, becoming a blight upon the lands. It is my knowledge that you have battled these monsters before and thus, you know how to take care of them. O, child of realms afar, only you can help this land not perish under the current ailments. Go see my brothers in the neighboring springs, for we shall each grant you a piece of the ultimate weapon." The spirit said, it's voice echoing through the small area.

"Wait, the master sword isn't the greatest weapon ever made?" Link asked. The spirit said nothing, only vanished as it's orb remained. The orb then began to shift shapes, becoming a white stone. It flew to Kia and hovered a moment before she held out a hand. It then fell into her hand and remained, looking like a gem.

"It's cold..." Kia said, feeling like a moron. "So, where next?"


Meanwhile, Else where


Alistair couldn't believe his eyes. He lay on a ledge, over looking a small lake, a puddle really. There was a large snake over him, a shining beast made completely of light.

"Young lord of lands far unknown. We the spirits of light have brought you here for the need of your assistance is great. A blight that once covered your lands has begun to spread through this land. O brave king, travel to the distant area of Ordona where my brother awaits you along with your companion. Team up with the hero of the twilight and restore what was once beautiful." The thing said in his head. Then without another word, it vanished.

"Well, I know one good thing Ceres." He said, turning to the Mabari war hound that lay near the entrance to the cavernous lake. "Least I'm not dead or feasting on the flesh of my best friends." Ceres gave an unamused bark before turning around and padding out of the cave. Alistair shook out his hair and started walking out of the cave. This place was a lake. A real lake. "No blight here. How fun! Maybe I can sleep at night now." He said, smiling. But things were never that pleasant or easy were they?
