The room was quiet after Zelda and Astra's words. While the other Champions save for Link and Mipha had been with Zelda in the library they hadn't thought that the strange man was someone so important. They had all assumed he was a reincarnation similar to Link, not someone who had truly lived for untold eons.
"Um, excuse me, your Highness, what do you mean by that?" Mipha asked, confused at what the Princess said.
"I'll explain everything but it would be best if I did it somewhere a tad more comfortable and less crowded," Astra said, looking at the gathered group. "It would also be best if you bring Impa and whoever you believe should be there so I can also be filled in what situation you all are dealing with."
"How do you know of Impa?" Zelda asked in shock.
"I'll explain that along with everything else when you have gathered everyone," Astra said with a slight smile.
HTHTHTHTHTHTHTHTHTHT
Zelda walked through the halls of the castle heading towards her father's office. She had left Revali and Daruk with Astra and was going with Urbosa to get her father. She approached the large oak doors and stopped outside of them. Urbosa put her hand on her shoulder as she took a deep breath and knocked on the door.
"Come in" came a slightly deep and aged voice. Zelda pushed open the door to see her father sitting with a Sheikah man around Zelda's own age. He was a couple of inches taller than her with the trademark white hair done up in a bun and red eyes behind a round pair of glasses of the Sheikah. Zelda recognized him as the Royal Court Poet. He looked at the princess and something in his expression made Zelda feel uncomfortable.
"Ah Zelda, I was just speaking with Veigon. What is it that you need?" King Rhoam asked his daughter with a slight bit of annoyance in his voice.
"Ah well Father, we recently found out something important about the Calamity and I came to inform you," Zelda told her father her eyes were downcast. "Today while me and the other champions were doing the Knights ceremony a man appeared in a flash of golden light. He was gravely injured and had strange clothing. After bringing him back to the castle. Me and several of the champions looked through the archive in the library and found that he is someone who has fought with the past incarnations of the heroes. Him just arriving may be why my powers have yet to manifest."
The king just stared at his daughter for a moment before sighing, "Zelda I don't have time for your game and neither do you. You should be attempting to awaken your powers through prayer instead of blaming your failings on someone else."
"Actually your Majesty she is telling the truth look here" Urbosa spoke up from behind Zelda handing an open book over to the king. Zelda realized it was the book she had found. She hadn't even realized that the beautiful Gerudo leader had taken the book from the library.
Rhoam read through the passage in the ancient book before slowly closing the book and setting it down. He was quiet for a moment before looking over to Urbosa and asked, "Is it true that you have found him."
Zelda tried to ignore the slight hurt at her father, ignoring that it was she who had brought this up as Urbosa nodded. "Yes, he has asked for us to gather anyone we believe should know about the past heroes as well as important to the upcoming Calamity."
The king looked back to Urbosa and asked," Do you have an idea of who we should ask to accompany us?"
"He specifically asked for Impa by name though he won't say how he knew her name. He recognized both me and the Knight by name before we had introduced ourselves as well now that I think about it. I would suggest both Purah and Robbie as well as the Captain of the royal guard and Leaders of both Rito and Zora since they are still in the capital due to the Gifting the Champion their symbols." Zelda said before Urbosa could open her mouth.
"Your Majesty, if you will allow it I would be honored to join this and be able to write down the journeys of our myths told by someone who personally lived through them." The Court Poet looked extremely excited about what he had heard.
The king rubbed his hand through his beard before nodding. "I think that would be a sound idea, Veigon. If we can write down stories from the era of myth it would be a great boon." He looked at his daughter and said." Go gather Impa and the scientist and have them meet us in the drawing room. I shall gather the leaders and Captain Arn. Urbosa, will you please inform and lead the other champions there?" Zelda and Urbosa nodded before leaving.
HTHTHTHTHTHTHTHTHTHT
Zelda walked into the Royal Lab on the castle grounds opening the door and was nearly hit in the head by a gear when something exploded. Three Sheikahs, two females and one male stumbled out of smoke coughing.
"Dammit Purah, that's the third time today." A pretty Sheikah girl with the infamous sheikah symbol on her forehead cursed at the other female who had her bangs dyed red stumbled out. The man was the first to notice Zelda standing there.
"Ah hello princess, what can we do for you today?" Robbie asked dusting soot off his lab coat. This caused the two girls to look up. "Ah heya, Zelly," Purah said waving while her sister just waved.
"Hello Robbie, Purah, Impa, something important has come up and we need you to join us in the drawing room. We have someone who can help us with the Calamity and the Sheikah technology." Zelda said, getting looks of excitement from everyone.
"Well what are we waiting for, let's go," Purah said as she grabbed Robbie and Impa's by the arm dragging them towards the castle with Zelda following behind.
HTHTHTHTHTHTHTHTHTHT
Link walked into the drawing room with the other champions and the Ancient Hero. Link was honestly intimidated by the man walking beside him. This was a man who had fought and defeated the Calamity goddess only knew how many times and lived to tell the tale. Link had so many questions for him but kept his stoic mask up. All the current leaders of the various races in Hyrule were present as well as the Sheikah scientist and next leader of the Sheikah. All eyes turned to them when they entered looking specifically at the Ancient Hero who looked over to Zelda.
"Is this everyone?" He asked and she nodded. The king then cleared his throat and stood as Link took a knee. "Welcome Ancient Hero I am King Rhoam Bosphoramus Hyrule. I am grateful for you coming in our time of dire need." Astra just looked at the king and nodded. His attention then turned back to Zelda which annoyed the king.
"Well then I believe it's time I answer any question you may have and tell you my tale and the truth about the ancient heroes of Hyrule herself, and I believe the best place to start is the beginning with the first of all the heroes. Hero of the Sky, Sky."
