The War of The Triforce

By: Zoshonel

Legends speak about a young boy who emerged from a village hidden deep within the Lost Woods. This boy traveled all across the lands of Hyrule on a quest to save Hyrule from the ultimate evil. Along the way this boy came across the legendary Master Sword and realized his calling as the mythical Hero of Time. Being too young to carry this burden at the time, the six sages of Hyrule put the boy into a dormant state for seven years.

When he awoke, he was no longer a boy but a full-grown man. The Hyrule he had once known was no more. Hyrule Castle had been destroyed, its marketplace abandoned and filled with zombies, and the entire kingdom gripped in fear and overrun with creatures of darkness. Before the Hero of Time could vanquish the ultimate evil, he had to first awaken the sages and add their power to his own.

By going back and forth through time, he awakened all six sages. With their power now added to his own, he headed to where Hyrule Castle had once stood. He entered the palace of the evil one and after a long, gruesome battle emerged victorious. With the evil vanquished, the hero was sent back through time to live the seven years that he had missed in a world free from the grips of the ultimate evil.

There are some who believe the legends, but there are a great deal more who do not. Those who don't believe do so mainly because they don't even believe in the legends of the Master Sword. Whether they believe in it or not, there is no one that can deny that at about the same time that the legend was started, all the evil in Hyrule seemed to vanish. The monsters that once terrorized Hyrule disappeared as well as the tall, dark man who came from the Gerudo Valley.

It is not sure where the legend originated from, but many speculate that it was started by Princess Zelda. As to whom the boy is that became the Hero of Time, no one knows for sure who he is. There are many who believe that they saw him and describe him as a young boy in green clothing with a fairy companion.

That was seven years ago. The power of the sages is weakening, and a new darkness is beginning to descend upon the kingdom of Hyrule.
