AHHH! This is The End, the end. The end, END, END. Finish. Conclusion. The End of this story, yeah I said "this". Yeah, theres gonna be a sequel. So, there has been like four requests for a sequel- lucky for you guys one is already in the works! I've started basic planning and timelining, but I need to finish that then re-go over it again and again. It'll be a bit different since I wasn't originally planning on making a second one, but since I got 3 seperate requests. Its also a partial collaboration with Alphawolfy288-who is helping come up with some characters. Also it won't be mainly focused around Link and Reena, it'll be mostly about Ryin. Also, the updates wont be as frequent as Hidden Truths-because I'll have to write it from scratch as I go along not base it off of my planning sheet/rough copy. I also won't be starting it for awhile. Whelp, here we go. The last chapter of Hidden Truths. Thanks for sticking with this to the end guys :)

~Epilogue~

"…The Hero of Time and the Lost Princess had many children. Eight in fact! Carei followed Ryin when Ryin was just over three and a half, and the twin boys, Teris and Teiry, followed Carei when Carei turned three. About two months after the twins turned two, Melly came. When Melly was almost three and a half, the twin girls, Nia and Nera, were born. And finally, Deren came after Nera and Nia were two and a half."

"Every now and then they would be called, but their tasks were never large. The Princess would stay home with the children when such a case arose. And if they were both needed, the children would stay at the castle. However, these calls were very few in number."

"And so, with their children, the Hero of Time and the Princess lived happily ever after."

The old woman closed the book in her lap, smiling at the awed faces of the children sitting at her feet.

"Did they really live happily ever after? Just like in fairytales?" a boy asked.

"Yes, just like in fairytales," she responded.

"Did they stay together forever?" a small girl asked.

"Yes, until the day they died, they were never separated again," the woman replied. "Nothing could ever tear them apart."

"They still fought bad guys?" a boy with red hair asked.

"Not often at all because the domains had begun to protect themselves," the woman replied.

"They had eight kids!" another boy asked. "Wow! That's a lot of kids!"

"What about Terk?" a boy asked. "What happened to Terk?"

The old woman laughed. "He was forever the protector of the family until the day he died. And that day was far from close. He passed away only a few years after the Hero and Lost Princess."

"Grandma, did you know the Hero and the Princess?"

A smile spread across the old woman's face. "Yes, a long time ago they saved my life."

"What happened?"

"An evil plague cursed Termina," she explained. She motioned to the statue that she and the children sat under. "This was built in their honor here in Termina after Teris and Teiry were born."

"Remember the story? They saved the entire village!" a boy exclaimed. He jumped to his feet, swinging an imaginary sword. "When I grow up, I'm going to be just like the Hero!"

"And I'm going to be just like the Princess!" a girl with brown locks cried.

"You can't! That means I have to marry you!"

The woman laughed, slowing getting to her feet. "It's getting dark, children. Time to go home."

"Take that you Stalfos!" the little boy cried, leading the other children.

The old woman hung back, looking up at the statue she had sat beneath. The Hero of Time and the Lost Princess stood tall, watching over the Town of Termina. The Hero held the Master Sword lowered to the ground in his hand. His other hand took the Princess' as she held one of her swords.

Memories of them swirled around the woman, making her smile. Slowly, she pulled a green hat from the small purse around her waist. A gentle breeze gathered her in its arms as she gazed at the small leather book and green hat.

"Thank you again, my old friends."

The wind grew stronger and the woman knew they were answering. She smiled, replacing the hat and the book she had been reading from, simply entitled 'fairytales ', in her purse.

"Grandma Ella! It's getting dark!"

Ella smiled, taking the hand of the girl who had run back. With a final look at her friends, she began the journey home.

The End
