Chapter One

Emperor Zlanden's Attack Plan

It has been a year since The Hyrulean Civil War ended, and Link's crowning as the new King after the death of King Ardus.

With order to Hyrule once again restored King Link prepared to enjoy the new era of peace he had brought to Hyrule.

All was not well in the world; for 50 miles southwest of the kingdom of Hyrule lies the empire of Rezloria, and the Emperor of Rezloria, Emperor Zlanden, is looking for another kingdom that he can conquer.

Emperor Zlanden is a tall long-bearded evil-looking man with brown hair and brown eyes. He wears a long black robe which is adorned with various red symbols. He is ruthless and relentless when it comes to warfare.

He said to his head General, General Ortan, "General Ortan what is the next kingdom we can add to our empire?"

"Let's see, we've added every kingdom in close proximity to Rezloria; every kingdom except for Hyrule that is."

"Didn't they just end a bloody civil war?"

"Yes, the new King's name is Link."

"You mean the same Link that killed my good friend The Great King of Evil Ganondorf?"

"Yes Sir."

"I believe our army could handle the Hyrulean army because they should be pretty decimated."

"I agree Sir."

"Gather the troops and prepare for invasion in one week."

"Very well, Sir." With that General Ortan started his preparations for the invasion of Hyrule.

Two days before the invasion King Link's chief royal knight Sir Randof said, "King Link Sire?"

"Yes, Randof."

"I believe our time of peace and prosperity will soon be in jeopardy."

"Why?"

"I've learned, by word of our allies in neighboring kingdoms, that the Emperor of Rezloria is planning to invade Hyrule and conquer us."

"Sir Randof, what is our army's complement?"

"You remember your wish just after your crowning?"

"Yes."

"Well, as you know the whole army was resurrected, but what you don't know is: that we've had more civilians join the army. Making our complement rise to one million."

"What is Emperor Zlanden's?"

"The same as us Sir."

"Prepare our troops."

Thus, Sir Randof prepared for war. The time for battle is at hand.
