Arisen from the ashes

[Ales]

Hi there i'm curretnly writing this fan fic that's currently called "legends of Ales" although i might end up changing the name later.

It takes place in the gap between Oot/MM-TP.

It is very TP influenced and a lot of places from TP do appear. The story contains bad language and graphical violence, no sex themes so far at least(and there's a chance that there won't be any)

I have written 13 chapters so far. PLease tell me what you think.




Chapter: 1

It was a dark and cold night, the only thing that could be heard was the sparkling sounds of a campfire. He enjoyed being alone, he had always been a loner. Suddenly a nameless fear awoke in his heart as he suddenly felt a dark presence around him. He got up on his legs and reached for his sword, his only ally the only thing he could trust. But as his hand came closer to the sword it moved away from it. He could see the shadows around him in the darkness, being a courageous man he kept his cool and attempted to reach the sword again, but once again it moved away from him. The shadows came closer and he felt his courage abandon him. ”Only a fool trusts his life to a weapon my dear bounty hunter” a cold voice said through the darkness. He looked around searching for his foe but found none, his sword had vanished mysteriously and the campfire ran out. The darkness engulfed him. He had never felt so helpless before. He couldn’t see a thing in the dark fog that surrounded him, the trees were gone and so were the mountains. ”We will take everything from you, you poor fool” the voice said. The fog retreated but nothing was left of the world he once knew, the trees had acquired dark and twisted forms and the mountains were filled with lava. He saw villages burning and people suffering. ”Do you not recognize the situation?
You have suffered this trauma, the past never dies no matter how much you run it’s behind you like a cold hand from death” the voice said. A scream through the night, he awoke next to his campfire. Another dream? This man was a living legend to many. People tell of this Ales, a bounty hunter said to be able to complete any task. He is considered mysterious to many. Some people claims that he was trained by the hero of legend but no one really knows his past. Ales took a loaf of bread and ate breakfast. He was 30 miles away from Uriki village. His bounty: a man named Raji who had missed a payment, the award: 1000 rupees. Raji is a dangerous warrior, the few who dared to try to claim the payment never returned.

Ales was a very brave man although a bit too bold sometimes. He equipped his traveling cape and packed his equipment. Ales had long blonde hair and while many girls tend to like him he shows many signs of battle and war. He has various scars in his face and has lost his left eye, he now only has one blue eye and an eye patch to the left. Ales was a war veteran, he fought in the imprisoning war during the age of 17, 8 years have passed since then, he is now 25. He started making his way north to Uriki village. He was used to travel a lot so walking for hours did not bother him, right now all he could think of was the dream. This dream had been haunting him for 8 years. He rarely sleeps. He wishes to forget the past but he can’t. Ales is an excellent swordsman, deadly at close range and long range, even though he is skilled with the bow he prefers using his sword ”Mizka” a sword that was made by ancient hylian blacksmiths, it is light as a feather but powerful as a sledge. Ales is very well known for being able to pull off the famous spin attack although he has developed a more brutal version of it where he shoves the sword into his foe and then cuts them in half with the spin attack. But his thoughts wandered off to the dream again, after many hours of traveling he reached Uriki village. People who saw him got a scared look and backed away from him. Ales was used to this, he was as said before a living legend and a lot of people respected him, but many also feared him. Many also admired him, and as always the bizarre mixture of love and fear was in the air. A lone shadow watched the turmoil from a dark alley. He reached for a shiny stone in his pocket and spoke to it: ”he’s here tell boss to roll out the unwelcome mat”, the man disappeared into the shadows.






Chapter: 2

Having to make his way through a mass with people was something Ales disliked, it reminded him of the war, the armies. He didn’t know where this Raji was nor what he looked like. He asked many people about him but everyone just panicked and ran away. Was it him? No it wasn’t, he could feel it, this Raji was apparently known to be feared. It didn’t take long until all the people suddenly backed away, running into their homes to hide peeking out of their windows. Before Ales knew it the street was empty. In front of him were 4 men. 3 of them looked like average grunts with their swords drawn, however the fourth man was a huge one with big muscles and a huge sword.

He grinned at Ales. ”Raji i presume?” Ales said to break the silence. ”Ales i’ve heard of you, a living legend they say and an artist with the blade, for long i’ve dreamt of a showdown with you.” Raji answered still grinning. ”Well it’s a shame we couldn’t meet in a more friendly way isn’t it?” Ales responded also grinning. ”hmph Ales as much as i admire your skill there will be no holding back fight or die, KILL HIM” Raji screamed at his grunts. ”Ah yes the good ol’ grunts who serves no more purpose than being killed. Very honorable Raji” Ales responded and slowly unsheathed his sword while the 3 grunts formed a triangle around him. ”Alright…it’s gametime” Ales said and backflipped over the grunt behind him. The grunt felt Ales’s sword pierce through his throat and then nothing. The 2 other grunts screamed for the loss of their companion and charged Ales. But when one of them struck with their sword Ales just dodged while grinning at them. After a while Ales took a leap with his sword and made a jump attack slicing another one in half.

The last and remaining grunt attempted to escape only to feel a sword being thrown into his body, he looked down at the sword that had pierced his stomach, it was one of his comrades swords. Seconds later his head rolled down the street. ”You are as good as they say” Raji said looking a bit unsecure. ”well Raji it seems like you’ve missed a payment, you’ve been a naughty boy and naughty boys makes me angry, and i’m not a nice person when i’m angry” Ales said looking a bit grumpy. Raji unsheathed his gigantic sword and slowly approached Ales. To Rajis surprise Ales simply charged him showing no signs of battle tactics at all, but as Raji slashed his mighty sword at Ales he appeared to have just disappeared into empty air, suddenly he felt a hand behind him. ”I’m right here Raji” Ales said with a smile on his face, seconds later Rajis nose was broken and blood flowed from it, you could see the bone outside of the nose.

”You son of a..” was all Raji could say before the hilt of Ales’s sword rammed into his stomach. Raji quickly got back up on his legs and slashed at Ales with all of his power. However he quickly noticed that Ales was standing on top of his blade, ”I think my boots are dirty could you take a look?” Ales said right before ramming his foot into Rajis face. Raji was furious now and slashed with his sword wildly all over the place without trying to aim. Ales backflipped up on a balcony and climbed up to the roof at amazing speed. ”Let’s see how well you dance fatso” Ales said and started firing his bow at Raji. Raji dodged the arrows but didn’t see Ales quick leap from the roof coming. Blinding pain filled his body, he saw his left arm fall to the ground. Raji panicked and threw his sword at Ales. Ales easily dodged it with his amazing agility. Raji started waving his fist randomly through the air, he had never been so afraid before. Suddenly Ales’s sword was shoved into his stomach. Raji felt the tears coming. He started to beg for his life, begging Ales to show him mercy. But Ales didn’t appear to hear him, he seemed to concentrate. ”May the energy in my body flow through my blade, may we become one” Ales thought to himself. His sword started to glow and he unleashed the Almighty power, the power forced his body to turn 360 degrees as a wall of fire toned up around him. Raji’s body was cut in half and horribly burnt. The almighty Raji was no more. Satisfied Ales sheathed his sword and looked around him. 4 dead men and a lot of blood everywhere. People started to come out of their buildings with curious looks. ”There is nothing for you to see here people leave i will not hesitate to strike you down” Ales said to the crowd. With his mission completed he started to make his way to the village’s exit.

But Ales knew what awaited him: the chase. He was ordered not to hurt any innocent and he was going to obey those orders. ”3 2 1” Ales said to himself. ”HEY YOU STOP THERE” a town guard suddenly screamed. Within seconds the streets were crowded with town guards. Ales took a huge leap up on a rooftop and started running, jumping from one roof to another. Some guards made many attempts at climbing the building but it just slowed them down as Ales nearly flied across the buildings. A prince from the distant land Persia was visiting Uriki village this day and as he spotted Ales he could only pronounce 3 words: ”Oh my god”.
Ales saw the borders of the village coming closer. Outside the village was a forest in which he had planned to get rid of the guards. He could easily hide among the trees. A wall protected Uriki though, he had to make a huge leap from a nearby rooftop.

Ales stopped at the closest roof he could find. The guards were trying to climb the building he was on but it would take them a long time before they reached him. Ales braced himself and took a deep breath. He started running as fast as his legs could carry him and upon reaching the edge he jumped. He barely made it over the wall and the fall was pretty high. Ales fell down in a couple of bushes. Pain flowed through his body but he had learned to control pain…since the war. Ales stopped thinking of the war and started running for the forest, but time was precious for the town gate opened and 50 guards armed with bows came outside. He had to lose them fast.









Chapter: 3

He had been running for hours dodging arrows between the trees. The guards were still behind his back. Normally it would only take around 30 minutes at most to lose them but somehow they kept running behind him. Ales knew that this could go on forever and decided to try another tactic, he climbed a tree and started to jump between them towards the guards instead of away from them. As expected the guards became a bit confused with this strategy since they were focused on chasing him. They started fire arrows at Ales who kept dodging. He had spotted a canyon earlier and he was going to jump down and hide there. Upon getting closer to the canyon a guard hit him in the back. Ales let out a scream as the pain started spreading around his body. Ales got dazzled and fell down the canyon free handed. He saw nothing to grab and get ahold of. As he was falling to his death his life flew through his head, this was very painful for his past was not a good one.

”Ales come on in dinner’s ready” a woman shouted through the dark night. A happy little 5 year old ran into the warm cottage. It was pretty cold outside and the fireplace gave the cottage a nice and warm atmosphere.

”It’s your favourite food today hun’: fried cucco with rice” the woman said. The 5 year old smiled at his mother while getting ready to eat.

”Your dad should get home from Hyrule market anytime now, did you do your homework?”
The 5 year old gave out another smile and nodded at his mother who in return smiled back.
A horse was heard outside the cottage. And Ales mother walked up to the door.

”That must be your dad Ales, he’s probably had another hard day at work today” The mother said. Ales mother opened the door and gave out a scream. 3 men walked in, they were holding an object. Ales couldn’t see and decided to get a bit closer, the object proved to be Ales father’s head which had been cut off. Ales mother started screaming with tears in her eyes as the men took her by the arm and smacked her across the face. Ales let out a scream and started crying.

”Don’t touch my mom” he yelled as he started kicking the mans leg. But a 5 year old could not do much damage to the man who simply picked him up and smashed his face into a wall.
Ales view blackened and he could feel blood from his forehead. The last thing he heard was his mom screaming for help as the men took her into a room where all he could hear were painful screams. Then he didn’t hear anything anymore. Suddenly he could hear the wind. He felt as if he was flying, he soon noticed that he was actually falling. Ales came back to his senses as he realized that he was back in the present and was falling down the canyon.
Ales was in luck, it became more narrow deeper into the canyon and so the walls came closer. He unsheated Mizka and jammed it into a wall. While this saved him from being smashed into the ground the high velocity also made him break his arm.

With a large thud he reached the bottom. He was severly injured even though the fall didn’t kill him it was still a high fall. Ales just laid still moaning for a while. Then he got up with the last sign of power he had left. He looked up but couldn’t see the surface, it was too narrow. It was very dark since the sun couldn’t reach the bottom. He then realized that this was the dreaded Canyon of the dead. A war had taken place here a long time ago and now the spirits are haunting the place. And with a small food supply and lot’s of injuries including his right arm the one which he used to wield his blade, it was broken and he couldn’t use his sword very well.
”This was the worst idea i’ve ever had” He said to himself.

He picked up his compass and located north west because to the north west he would find the hunters guild. He started his long journey having no idea on how to be able to climb all the way up. He didn’t think of it because he wanted to keep his hope up. The problem was that the sun was setting and soon it would be very dark all over the place.








Chapter: 4

The cold air froze his lungs, the smell of rotten flesh was unbearable. The path ahead was filled with rotten corpses well preserved by the harsh cold, yet it never froze. Many believed that it was no ordinary cold. However the cold was the last thing Ales thought of. He knew what would await him in the darkness of this canyon. He pressed on for hours always resisting the temptation of giving in. Suddenly it got colder and that could only mean one thing. The sun was setting and soon the dead would wander this canyon restlessly. It was just a matter of seconds before a Redead grabbed his leg and pulled him down into the pile of corpses. The stench was overwhelming and the gore seeping in inside of his clothes and sometimes even mouth nearly made him faint. He could feel many hands on him now and teeth burrowing into his flesh. He wanted to scream but couldn’t because of all the the corpses upon him. He couldn’t find air and he felt how he was being eaten alive. His broken arm was twisted in painful ways until it dropped off. Ales could feel all his limbs detatch themselves. His stomach was cut open and he felt the darkness surround him.

Many would resist but Ales welcomed it, so many times he had cheated death, finally it would end. His painful life, a life without a purpose. Or that’s what he thought. For fate had other plans in store for him. A blinding light in his face, he was floating in some sort of nothingness. In front of him were three beautiful women. Ales realized that his body was restored and that the pain was gone.
”I thought my spirit would go straight to the Shadow temple and not the sacred realm”
He finally said. The three women smirked at him. They floated towards him and lifted him up.
”You are not dead, we have saved you. We are the three goddesses Din, Nayru and Farore, perhaps you have heard of us?”
The woman dressed in red said.

Upon hearing this Ales looked as if he had seen a ghost. He flew up on his knees and bowed down.
”What brings me such honor?” Was all he could say.
”There is no honor involved, we thought we had lost you so many years ago Sela but finally we have found you” Din said.
Ales looked upon the goddesses.
”Welcome back Sela Fire Phoenix, defender of the Triforce”
Ales got back up on his legs and stared at them with his one eye.
”Sela? Phoenix? Defender of the Triforce? What are you talking about?” Was all he could say.
”There is not enough time for us to explain everything, you will understand when the time comes and then we will also explain everything. Now we have a new mission for you”
the three said at once.
Ales said nothing, just staring at them.

The three continued:
”When you died so many years ago we thought that the Triforce would forever stand without a defender. We decided to create a new soul that would live in a body of a Hylian, and he was destined to be the new defender. All was going well until some time after the fall of the king of evil. He strayed from his mission and finally left it completely. He now seeks the Triforce to keep it as his own for his own needs.”

Ales opened his mouth to say something but was given a gentle sign to be quiet.
”We thought that all hope was lost because we did not dare to create a third defender. But then we found you, the Hylian man who wields Mizka the sword of Sela the Fire Phoenix.
Each Defender is given a weapon to cast down evil and that weapon is bonded to their very souls. ”Mizka” is a word from an ancient language spoken only by gods that means ”Fire”, only the reincarnation of Sela the godly Phoenix could wield the sword as Sela wielded it so many years ago.”

”I don’t understand, i don’t show any signs that would belong to a defender” Ales said.
The three laughed gently at him and said:
”You can jump incredible distances, you are extremely agile and you are very strong. We could go as far as calling you super-human. Look at the name the mortals gave you: ”Ales”
read it backwards and it becomes ”Sela”. The second defender who strayed never possesed such powers until now that is. He has gotten extremely powerful by unkown means. Sela you must stop him”
and as they finished that line Ales was blinded and found himself in the middle of Hyrule field.

It couldn't post it all in one post so i'll have to post multiple times.







Chapter: 5

The rain was pouring down outside, the air smelled of beer and wine and there were many who smoked a deku pipe too. He felt releaxed while staring out in the cold night, listening to the rain. But he couldn’t help thinking of him. He had been gone for a long time now, longer than usual. What if something actually happened to him? All he could do was wait and hope that he got back. Hours passed and the beer made him feel woozy, no he had to stay focused, he couldn’t pass away not now. After a long wait a woman rushed in:
”He’s back guys, he actually made it” she screamed. Half asleep after all the beer he got up from his chair and rushed outside. Then he saw him a couple of metres away, no mistaking on that brown old travelling cape, however his steps were clumsy and as he saw his face he looked like as if he’d never slept before during his entire life.

”Ales you retarded tektike where have you been?”
he said with a large smile on his lips. Ales looked up on him and gave him a little nod with a smile and then collapsed on the ground.
Ales friend ”Nalé” was a big guy who enjoyed drinking all kinds of drinks with alcohol, he was however a great warrior and he and Ales had always been there for eachother. He looked down on his collapsed friend.
”He’s sleeping” he said and started laughing.

The hunters guild was actually a tavern where the barkeep had a list where new bounties where put up, it was no secret though everyone knew about it. The Bazaar used to be a simple shop but ever since the new owner moved in he made it a tavern. The Bazaar is located in the middle of the market district in Hyrule town. This town used to lay somewhere else but since the fall of the king of evil they built a new one at the southern parts of Hyrule.

”I feel like i was just hugged by a goron family” Ales said as he woke up in one of the rooms in the Bazaar. The barkeep came in and noticed that Ales was awake. He greeted him with a nod and gave him a smile asking if he felt better.
”I’ve been chased by 50 guards from Uriki village, been hit by an arrow and fallen down the canyon of the dead, broke my arm and been eaten alive. Then mysteriously healed by the goddesses and been told that i’m some sort of guardian and then collapsed on the ground, I’VE NEVER BEEN BETTER” he thought to himself, he then finally responded:
”I’m ok”. The barkeep then smiled and returned to his work.

Ales needed fresh air, all the alcohol smells made him feel sick. He hated alcohol and everything that came with it, he didn’t know why, he just did. There were lot’s of guests even early in the morning. He looked for Nalé but didn’t find him. A drunk yelled at him from a table:
”Did you hear about Laseni? He who sought a bounty in the dead swamps?
They say the redeads got ’im haha can you imagine what it would feel like being eaten alive?”
He said laughing madly.
”I can imagine” Ales said giving him a hard look. The drunk ceased his laughing and looked down on the table.

He went outside, the bright light forced him to cover his eye until it adjusted. It was a busy day and the merchants looked exhausted in the heat. Kids were playing ”Dekuball” and fat ladies were yelling at eachother. He knew that Nalé was probably at Lonlon ranch buying milk. He liked alcohol but he was far from one of those drunks and he often drank milk too. Ales took a walk around the market district. A Dekunut hit him on his left arm, he looked around a little startled and saw a group of kids. They looked frightened, Ales was wellknown and was feared by many.
”I-i’m s-so sorry s-sir, we kicked it too far” a little boy let out with a tiny voice.
Ales picked up the nut and looked at it, the kids looked as if they were about to wet their pants. Ales smiled at them and threw it back. The kids smiled and started playing again.

He continued his walk around the district. Suddenly two doctors came running in a hurry, one of them didn’t know why and was filled in as they ran. Ales could make out a few words:
”Say what?” one of them said
”Some crazy guy shoved a sword up a mans…uhh you know” the other said
”The anus??” The other one said startled.
Ales nearly laughed at this.
”A sword up his anus? What kind of madman could even think of such an idea?” he thought.
The market district was indeed a very busy place with lot’s of things happening everywhere.

Ales finally took a good look at the rebuilt Hyrule castle, standing there it looked fantastic.
Little did he know that inside the castle things were far from fantastic.

The king walked across the throne room over and over again. A soldier came running.
”My liege ”the dark triangle’s” army has been spotted to the north of Death Mountain.
According to our spies their goal is the ruins of the old Hyrule town”
The king frowned
”What buissness could they possibly have there? The entire area must be covered by trees by now” The King said. The soldier took a deep breath before revealing what he had to say:
”They are going to the ruins of the temple of time, the dark triangles leader wants something from there”

A lone woman came into the room, she wore a dress but it was no longer the happy pink one that she usually wore. Her eyes were filled with tears and she looked pale.
”Princess Zelda what’s wrong?” The king asked being worried for his daughter.
Tears flowed from her face and she opened her mouth and said with a sad and tiny voice:
”He’s after the blade of evils bane and once he get’s it we are all doomed”
she then sat down on a chair and cried loudly.

The king realizing how dangerous this threat was told his most trusted men to ride to the temple of time to protect the sword. The king exited the room and went out to a balcony, he gazed upon his kingdom and finally screamed with all his might:
”HOW COULD YOU? HOW? ANYONE BUT YOU”
he then fell down on his knees and felt the tears flow.






Chapter: 6

Ten of the king’s most trusted Hylian knights were sent out together with thirty normal soldiers. Riding as fast as they could they set aim for the temple of time. They didn’t stop to take a break, they had to get there first at all costs…and then pray for a miracle. Mikaru the most skilled of the knights was assigned to lead the group, as they made it to the old ruins they bowed down outside and prayed for a miracle. The air was daft but it also smelled like a forest should. There in front of them it was: the blade of evils bane just like the hero of time had left it.
”We shall camp here and once the dark triangle appears we shall guard this artifact with our lives” Mikaru yelled at his soldiers. And so they started a campfire and ate for the first time in hours.

The King knew that most probably, the knights wouldn’t be able to prevent it. He knew that after the blade of evils bane he the leader of the dark triangle would want the triforce. His daughter Zelda possesed the triangle of wisdom. She would be his next goal. She needed protection, but it would have to be discreet, an army of soldiers would draw too much attention.

Mikaru felt a dark prescence in the air, coming closer. He felt discouraged and grabbed his sword. This made all the other soldiers do the same, did they feel it too? Or did they just mimic his actions? A sound from the bushes, Mikaru readied his sword…no sound, he stood there hardly breathing for several minutes, still nothing. Mikaru put down his sword and sat down. A cold wind blew from the north. Not much time left now.

It was a cold night but he didn’t care, Ales sat on a hill and looked at the stars. He enjoyed these few peaceful moments he had. He was bothered this time though: he could not forget the goddesses. What was he supposed to do? This second defender he had to stop, who was he? What did he look like?
”What the hell do you want me to do?” he said and sighed. He layed down on the cold and wet grass, it felt nice and he kept looking at the stars. Trying to think of something else.

Down in the Bazaar Nalé collected Ales reward for the Raji mission.
”He usually never forgets about this and where the hell is he?” he said to himself while taking a big bread and putting it in his mouth. A lone man entered the tavern, he took off his hood and under it was an old man.
”People i am your king and i have come to beg of your help, i will pay anything if you accept my mission” he said with a shaky voice.
Before he knew it Nalé was already introducing himself to the king

The chicken tasted great, and the water was a nice breeze in his dry throat. Mikaru had been waiting for many hours and still nothing. The soldiers were getting bored and started to believe that the whole thing was just made up. Mikaru was anxious though but all he could do was wait. The sound of a bow being strained caught his attention and seconds later arrows rained down on the camp killing and harming several soldiers.
”GET YOUR WEAPONS THEY’RE HERE” he yelled at his men. He picked up his shield and sword and charged the group of monsters that opposed them.
”May the goddesses have mercy on thine souls” he whispered to himself.

She could see the massacre from afar as she stood on her balcony. Tears were still flowing from her eyes.
”Those are innocent people, how can you slay them? You used to fight for them, how could you?” she said and went inside.

Smoke emerged from the woods, he could see it from afar as he sat on the hill. Ales quickly got back up on his legs staring at the chaos. A nameless fear awoke in his heart as he watched the fire, he recalled a voice in his head:
”We will take everything away from you” he had heard this voice before.
Not just in his dreams, before that. He shook his head, he couldn’t remember. He felt an incredible darkness from that area.
”It’s him” he thought. Ales quickly ran to the horse dealer in the market district who always seemed to be awake. However he didn’t buy a horse, he stole one. And while hearing the horsedealer behind him curse he quickly set aim for that forest.

”Y-you, how could you of all people?” Mikaru said with his last breath, he fell to the ground and wasn’t moving anymore. The leader of the dark triangle grinned and approached the sacred blade. He touched it with his fingers and gently allowed his fingers to grab it. He pulled it out with ease and held it proudly high in the air. A massive dark void surrounded him and the entire place shook by it’s very power. The sacred blade was no longer the blade of evils bane. It had aquired a darker and more vile looking form and dark energy flew through it. The leader removed his hood revealing a young man in the age of 23, his face was pale and sinister looking and his eyes were red as blood.

He wore a kokirish cap but it was jet black, and on his body he wore a dark armor with a black cape swaying in the wind. A triangle pulsed on his left hand.
”Now i am once more the one i was born to be, come my minions we shall storm Hyrule castle at dawn” he said with an evil grin.
A Stalfos came running and opened his rotten mouth:
”My liege someone is approaching”






Chapter: 7

He stood there with a perplexed look on his face wondering what the hell his minion was talking about.
”Someone is coming?” he said with a confused voice. The Stalfos nodded and unsheated his sword.
”Don’t worry sir we’ll take care of him” he said as he disappeared among a couple of trees. He looked on the sword that used to be the blade of evils bane. It was a long and powerful broadsword, he enjoyed it’s new look caused by the dark powers within him.
”The triforce of Wisdom and Power are left and the easiest target for now is the one of wisdom. The princess won’t stand a chance” he thought to himself. Sounds of swords clashing and screams of pain could be heard among the trees, whoever this intruder was he was a powerful fighter.

Fighting his way through hordes of Moblins and Stalfoses Ales finally spotted the ruins of the sacred old temple, and there in the middle of it all he was, the one who betrayed his own legacy. Ales was surprised by what he saw when he took a closer look: That man even though he was evil looking was with no doubt the Hero of time. But that couldn’t be, he was a hero and not a villain.

”I applaud you for making it this far but you won’t get any fur…” he stopped as he saw Ales. That man, he looked familiar in some sort of way. His body was one he had never seen before but his aura was familiar, he had met this man before a long time ago. He finally got back to his senses and grinned at Ales for he knew that this was a foe worthy of his powers.

”You…it can’t be you” Ales said with a pale face.
”You’re not the Hero of time you’re just some sort of dark mock-up of him, a mere shadow” he continued. The man let out a small chuckle and said:
”Allow me to introduce myself: i am Link the Hero of time and the leader of the dark triangles army, i am no shadow and i will gladly prove it to you” Link raised his sword and taunted Ales with it. Ales raised his sword in the same fashion and concentrated on his foe.

Then they both charged eachother with no more words spoken and their swords clashed. Steel hit steel and the sounds echoed throughout the forest. Ales rammed into Link and punched him in the face and then continued with a sword attack that Link easily blocked. Link somersaulted above Ales with extreme agility but found himself getting a sword cut from Ales spin attack. He frowned at Ales and charged him while attacking him with the ”thousand blades” technique where the attacker strikes his foe with multiple sword slashes at such a high speed that the sword seems to be everywhere.

Ales blocked the attacks and countered with a huge jump somersaulting in the air and making a downward thrust towards Link’s head. Link blocked and cut Ales in the face. Ales felt the blood flowing from his face and in rage once again charged Link who also did the same. They both hit eachother with such power that they were sent flying in opposite directions and creating a sonic blast so powerful that entire trees fell down. Ales was flying in the direction of a tree and somersaulted and hit the tree with his feet and quickly climbed to the top of it to get a better view.
Link appeared out of nowhere and thrusted his sword into him. Ales felt his powers abandon him but he knew that he couldn’t give up. Ales kicked Link in the stomach and felt the dark sword fall out of his body. The two warriors stood there looking at eachother. Ales breathing was heavy and he was loosing a lot of blood. Link grinned and sheated his sword while charging a dark sphere shaped object in the palm of his hand.
”You are skilled but nevertheless you are dying, i could save you or take your life. It’s up to you, if you swear loyalty to me i shall spare you, now choose between life and death”
Link said with a sadistic look on his face.

Ales started laughing almsot like a madman and then said:
”I am Ales and i swear loyalty to no one” Link was enraged, this being showed him no respect. Such a being deserves nothing more than death.
”SO BE IT YOU FOOL” he screamed and lobbed a group of dark energy orbs at Ales.
Ales felt something inside him, something he had never felt before. A rage from the inside, he felt as if he was burning, the rage nearly burned him alive from the inside. He wanted it to stop but it wouldn’t. Ales let out a scream and fire engulfed the Mizka.

The orbs were repelled by Ales blade but Link dodged them yet he was surprised. What was happening with him? Ales charged Link faster than ever and hit him multiple times with his sword. Link was cut all over his body and was sent flying by a finishing blow from Ales fist.
Lying there in a pool of blood in the forest he looked upon himself: he was covered in his own blood and was still burning in a lot of places. Link was furious and with his powers alone he managed to get up on his legs and forget the pain. Ales was on his knees in front of him catching his breath.

The Mizka did not burn anymore and Ales felt normal again but very exhausted. His powers abandoned him and the darkness surrounded him just like before. Link wobbled towards the remaining soldiers that were alive after Ales onslaught.
”WHERE THE HELL WERE YOU?” Link screamt in rage to his troups.
”S-sorry sir we had to um..check for survivors” a Moblin said. Link frowned
”You’re just a bunch of cowards” he said. Link was shaken after his fight with Ales, never before had he fought such an opponent.
”But whatever you are Ales you belong to the ranks of the dead now”. Link left with his troups, attacking Hyrule castle at dawn was out of the question, he was too hurt and his army too small. They decided to regroup and stock up on supplies, somewhere…secret.

In the darkness of the forest, in the pocket covered in blood a small little fairy was struggling to get out of the bottle. It finally after several attempts managed to escape. It looked down on the fallen man and started working it’s magic. Ales felt life flow through his veins once again.
His wounds were all healed and he felt as healthy as a goron in a sea of rocks.
”I knew that having a fairy with me would come in handy, Link i do not know how you could turn to darkness but i promise you that i will stop you"”he thought.
Ales decided to get back to the town and find Nalé, Link was after the triforce and he had heard rumors of the princess possesing one piece.
”That triangle on the back of Link’s hand must be the triforce of courage that the Hero is said to possess” he had to make sure that Link did not get the triforce at all costs.

He mounted the horse he had stolen and set aim for Hyrule town.

[Ales]

Chapter:8

”So the guy just rushes in and hops on one of my horses and then leaves. WHY DOESN'T THIS TOWN HAVE BETTER SECURITY?” the furious horsedealer yelled at two guards who were investigating the situation,

”Oh don't you worry sir we will make sure to catch this guy, we are the greatest and the most bravest men in Hyrule” one of the guards said proudly looking at his partner. The other guard said:

”If you happen to see him just tell us and we'll throw him into the castle dungeon”
The two guards turned around to continue their patrol around the castle town, one of them whispered to their partner:

”It's probably just some kid playing pranks on the old man, we can't exactly throw him into the dungeon but we CAN tell his parents” The two guards chuckled.

”OH THERE HE IS AND ON MY HORSE TOO!” the horsedealer yelled at the guards.
The guards turned around making their biggest macho faces ever and said:

”right let's get this overwith, come out kid!” the two guards were feeling like heroes and proudly approached the man on the horse. Ales looked at them and just sighed once he spotted their madeup faces. The guards suddenly didn't feel so cool anymore:

”Uh, isn't that Ales the bounty hunter?” one of them said.

”Ehm...it seems so” the other one just as terrified said.
The other guard sheated his sword and said:

”Well uh.. i just remembered that i have an urgent meeting with my lawyer so i gotta go”
he said and ran as fast as he could.
The other guard said:

”Oh what is that sound? Oh that must be a lady in distress and she's pretty FAR away from here, see ya” and he too ran. The horsedealer yelled:

”COME BACK HERE YOU LOONS AND GET THIS GUY!”
Ales sighed once again and dismounted the horse.

”Don't worry i just needed to borrow it for a while, you can have it now.” Ales said and started walking towards the Bazaar.

”WHAT ABOUT MY PAYMENT FOR LETTING YOU BORROW THE HORSE?” The horsedealer yelled, but Ales ignored him and kept walking.
Upon entering the Bazaar the people greeted him, telling him to keep up the good work with the bounties. Ales smiled at them although he didn't mean it. He was too worried about Link and princess Zelda. Scanning the area  with his eye he spotted Nalé smiling at him...but someone else in a black robe was sitting in front of him.

”ALES GREAT TIMING I WAS JUST TALKING ABOUT YOU! Come sit here with us”
Nalé as loud as always said with his usual neverending smile.


The man in the robe was old and introduced himself as the king of Hyrule. Normally Ales would bow down and treat him respectfully but there was no time for that.

”Ah Ales your friend Nalé has told me how skillfull you are, i'm sure you two are going to offer great protection for..” the king said before Ales interrupted:

”I am sorry for interrupting but this is urgent: Your daughter is in danger, The hero of time is planning to attack this town and take her piece of the triforce. He musn't have it!”
The king was shocked. How could he know this already? It's not like any peasant walking the streets knew about this.

”Explain how you possess this knowledge this instant” the king said.
  Ales explained everything that had happened to the king and Nalé, the king sighed but finally gave up a smile.

”A warrior that actually stands a chance against him is worth more than one million rupees right now, i will pay you two anything for protecting my daughter and the triforce” he said.
Ales explained that he did not want any payment for this mission. Nalé nearly choked his bread upon hearing this, Ales had always been one you had to pay if you enjoyed life, why would he do this for free?

The king and the bounty hunters started their walk to the castle, upon entering they were greeted by many guards and servants of the royal family.

”My daughter is in her room upstairs, it would be best if you two introduced yourselves to her first”
The king said.
The two went upstairs and found her staring at a wall in her room. Nalé was cheerful as always but Zelda ignored him and didn't say a word. Ales sat down beside her on her bed and asked Nalé to leave them alone for a while. Nalé winked at Ales as if he believed that Ales was gonna try to come on to her, he was wrong.

”I know how you feel and what's going on my princess, i have seen it myself and faced it”
He said. Zelda ignored him too, Ales continued to tell her everything that had happened to him including his brief visit at the sacred realm. He didn't know if she actually listened but he tried.
After finishing his story she kept staring, then she looked at him with tears in her eyes and hugged him. Ales who's only friend ever in his life was Nalé wasn't used to a woman seeking comfort in his arms, he started sweating and held his breath trying to keep his cool. She let go of him and finally said:

”Thank you...” with a sad yet more hopeful voice.
Ales smiled at her and got back up on his legs, he was still sweating as he opened the door.
He turned around at her once more and said that she wouldn't need to worry.
The door closed.

”I'm more worried about you and the people of Hyrule than myself” she thought.






Chapter: 9

”Alright here's the plan: we'll take the princess to snowpeak mountains, i have an old friend who lives in a mansion there” Nalé said with a delighted look.

”I thought that I was your only friend” Ales said making a sad face in a funny way. Nalé chuckled and so did Ales. Ales knew about this friend in snowpeak: he was wealthy and owned a huge mansion somewhere on the mountain. Ales had never met him in person but Nalé often referred to him as ”The count of Holodrum”, apparently he had his servants build a mansion in Hyrule in this far off place so that he could live in peace. One day he was out hunting when a Yeti attacked him and wounded him severly. Nalé who was more of a traveller at the time was trying to reach the top of the mountain when he spotted him and slayed the Yeti, they've been good friends since that day.

”Tell me Nalé: you always refer to him as the count yet i've never heard his real name, how come you always laugh instead of answering?” Ales said with a curious look.
Nalé burst out in laughter once again like usual and Ales just sighed....like usual.

”I'm ready to go wherever we are heading” A voice called from the throne room. Zelda came out with a travelling cape, she had bid her father farewell and for the first time in a long time...she smiled.

”Your chick is here Ales” Nalé said teasingly resulting in a smack on his shoulder from Ales fist.
Zelda giggled at the two and said:

”Oh no need to be jealous Nalé, you'll always be my second favourite hunter” Ales burst out in laughter and so did Nalé.

The three of them left the castle each riding on a horse granted to them by the king, Hyrule field looked amazing in the sunset. The journey to snowpeak was expected to be a calm one, the real trial would be to climb the mountain. The king standing from his balcony looked at the three riders with a smile of hope on his lips.

”I will now commence the evacuation of Hyrule castle town, when ”he” get's here it'll be only me here. I will die but at least my daughter and kingdom are safe.” a tear slowly shed from his eye as he entered the throne room.

Two days passed and Hyrule town was as empty as the Kakariko graveyard. The king was the only one left sitting on his throne and anxiously awaiting his doom. The door to the throne room was blasted down by explosives and an army of foul creatures entered led by the hero of time.
The king laughed at their surprised faces and said with a mockful smile:

”It is only me you'll find here...Link” Link stepped up to the king and smacked him across the face.
Then he nodded towards a bundle of ropes they had brought with them. The evil creatures tied the king up naked and hung him from the balcony.

”I do not give a damn about the people of Hyrule, but where is Zelda?” Link yelled.
The king although brave was scared to death, yet he did not say a word. Link growled and unsheated the dark blade that once was the blade of evil's bane, then he cut a wound on the king's throat yet only lightly to make sure it didn't kill him. As soon as the king saw the condition of the blade he gasped in fear and all he could say was:


”Why? Why are you doing this to us Link? Why?”. Link didn't say anything for a minute, but then he finally opened his mouth, but to his own surprise....he didn't know what to say.

”I...i don't know..” he finally said almost appearing to be afraid of himself. A couple of more minutes passed with no words being said. Finally after a while Link snapped back to reality and threatened the king with the blade again.

”I think we need a new name for this sword don't you think? What about...the dark blade?” Link said pondering his own thoughts. He cut off one of the king's arms slowly and painfully. The king's painful scream could be heard all over the deserted town.

”I suppose it doesn't matter, now i do realize that you've probably hired some bodyguards to protect your dear daughter and that she's probably being escorted somewhere else, where may i ask?”
Link said with an evil and sadistic smile. The king remained silent.

Link became furious and with only one hand pulled up the king who was tied to a chair that hung from the balcony. He cut many parts of the king open and blood was flowing everywhere, he broke the king's nose and shattered his teeth. The king cried and begged the godesses for mercy.

Link laughed sadisticly and took a golden fork from a small dining table and shoved it into the king's left eye and slowly pulled it out, then he forced the king to eat it and he laughed like a maniac all the way through from the point of the king having it in his mouth and to the point where the king vomited.

”Y-you're sick, you're not human” the king managed to say through all the blood and vomits all over him and in his mouth. This just made Link smile even more and he started to strangle the king with a curtain until the very moment where the king almost passed out.

”You're not getting away that easily” Link said with an evil smirk. The king with his last sign of strength said:

”T-there is one who will stop you...” Link laughed and pointed at himself with a made up surprised look. The king continued:

”H-his name is A-ales” Link stopped goofing around and gave the king a stern look. The look of the king's eye told him that he wasn't dead after all. Link was enraged with Ales and the king. He cut the king's stomach open and placed a bomb in it. He hung the king from the balcony again and lit the fuse. An explosion was now heard and so was the smattering of several body parts from what used to be the good king of Hyrule. Hyrule town and the throne room was covered in blood.
Link and his dark army left with only one goal: to find Zelda and Ales and kill them both.




Chapter: 10

Their laughs echoed throughout the forest as they jumped around among the trees, they were rolling around in the grass and smiling at eachother.

”Will we be friends forever?” the little girl asked with a warm smile.
The now grown up boy smiled too and finally responded:

”Forever Saria” He remembered everything as if it was yesterday: him playing around with Saria and the other Kokiri, even Mido joined in. He remembered the campfire's heat, he remembered the smell of roasted boar,

 he remembered the blood,he remebered his hand around her neck, he remembered the fire engulfing the tiny houses, he remembered the smell of burnt flesh.

He remembered his smile. Saria's final words were filled with sadness and pain. The Kokiri still haunt him in his mind.

”He's inside me... i'm so sorry” he said as he felt Saria draw her last breath, the rest of the Kokiri rushed towards him, he was no longer a friend, but a foe, they threw sticks at him and everything they could find on the ground. Tears shed from their little faces and they screamed of agony as they witnessed the passed away Saria. He slaughtered every single one of them and burnt any possible survivors alive inside the forest...Kokiri forest was no more. Watching the fire made a tear come from his eye only to the moment after be replaced by a crazed laughter.

Such was the fall of the proud hero and the rise of the dark triangle. Wandering out in the wilderness he slayed numerous beasts with his bare hands and forced the Moblin king to surrender his army to him. Moving on he tamed the dead and went to the darkest of places only to engulf it furthermore with his own darkness.

Wherever the dark triangle’s army went death and sorrow would soon follow, the army held the citizens of Hyrule with an iron fist and corrupted several of them and made them join the army...or die. Kakariko village was the first goal of the army, the raid that made them well known all over Hyrule. Kakariko was deserted and fell into decline only to be lost over the years. For 5 years the army caused destruction upon Hyrule until their leader finally decided to deliver the coup de grace to Hyrule...by destroying it with nothing less than the power that helped create it: the Triforce, he who grabs it will have whatever wish he has fulfilled.

Sitting on his throne made out of bones of the countless people he had slayed he often recalled these moments. This time he was too puzzled with where Zelda had gone with the piece of wisdom and who this Ales was. Using magic he disguised his dark minions as normal Hylians to infiltrate the many towns of the people of Hyrule. Nobody seemed to know where Zelda and her bodyguards could've went.

Suddenly a minion rushed in calling for his master:

”My liege you must hear this: there is one who could help us if we pay him enough rupees”
Link flew up from his throne and commanded him to bring this person here immeadiatly.
The minion shook it's head and said:


”I'm afraid he's not available right now to speak to you in person but we can contact him via this gem here” the minion took out a stone and as Link looked at it he could see the person, Link talked with this person for an hour and finally came up with an agreement. Link ended the conversation and sat down on his throne and laughed, he knew that this person would indeed be of more help than he would even hope for.





Chapter: 11
Such blistering cold was nothing like Ales had ever experienced before, he could barely see in the blizzard that surrounded them. Nalé didn't seem to be bothered though. Ales felt a bit uneasy about Zelda though: she clinched to him like a child does to it's mother, Ales didn't really like that all the time. He did understand though that he was the only source of hope for her but yet something about her frightened him: the way she spoke sometimes, the way she acted...it was almost as if she was planning to end her life. Ales didn't either truly know why he wanted to protect her, it wasn't about the bounty anymore for him, he wanted her to remain safe.

”What's going on with me?” he thought to himself. He had barely finished that thought before a group of white wolfos popped out of the snow, being made of ice the cold did not bother them.
Ales took his sword and knocked one of them down only to see it attack him again. Fear glowed in Zelda's eyes and her feelings seemed to become Ales feelings too, he felt uneasy and suddenly he didn't know what to do. Nalé destroyed one wolfos that nearly bit Ales.

”Ales what's wrong with you? Unleash a spin attack!” Nalé shouted. Ales came back to his senses and charged his blade, preparing to unleash it. The Mizka however to everyone's surprise didn't just glow like usual, it caught fire like before and as Ales unleashed it a huge barrier of fire was summoned around them that was so fierce that even the blizzard retreated. The beasts were gone having a certain weakness against fire.

For a while they stood there just watching the snowflakes falling. It was their moment of relief before the trials would begin again. Nalé approached Ales with an angry look and said:

”You could've died there if i wasn't there Ales, what's wrong with you? You're always the one to act first and always be prepared for everything. And why don't you want to recieve payment for this mission? I  demand to know everything!” he yelled. Ales said nothing just standing there looking at him. For some reason it just felt wrong telling Nalé about it, he wasn't the type who believed in the godesses. Nalé frowned and turned around to continue walking. Ales looked down on the ground and sighed. The task that had been put upon him in such a short manner was something he still hadn't fully accepted, it tore on his mind sometimes. The whole thing was just too much for him. Zelda approached him and attempted to grab his hand, she knew that the whole thing could be too much to handle for him. Ales didn't grab her hand though like he usually did, he ignored her and continued walking leaving her to walk by herself. Ales recalled something in his past at this moment, perhaps it was the feeling of hopelessnes in the air that did it but he didn't know for sure.

Hyrule field 9 years ago:
The rain was pouring down and the thunder roared violently. Fear was always in the air at this time, fear and the smell of blood. As he sat there in the encampment next to a campfire and saw all the wounded men and the sound of a battle from afar he realized the true meaning of hopelessnes. He took a loaf of bread as he spotted Mikaru carrying a dead man, he spotted Ales and sat next to him.

”Hey Ales how are you holding up?” he gently asked. Ales sighed and looked at Mikaru with his tired eyes, Ales was sick, a deadly virus was in his body. Like a plague it spread through his systems ruining his body from the inside.

”Mikaru, what's the purpose of this war? I often hear a legend of a Hero that will slay the king of evil, yet such a hero never appears. How can one's heart be so dark?”  he asked, Ales being just a 16 year old boy with no true combat experience often posed questions such as these. He often wondered about light and darkness and what it truly meant.

”Ales there are no limits for the evil one can commit, it exists within us all and tends to popup in one's most desperate moments only to corrupt you. Light is an illusion said to hinder the evil within oneself. Truth to be told the light is what often leads one to darkness because it blinds you.
If you stand in darkness in the middle of the night you will be afraid of being attacked but it is easier to see what's truly there in the background hidden by the dark cloak. If a lantern shines brightly you'll feel safer even though the chance of getting attacked is just as grand and it becomes harder to distinguish what's truly there in the bushes. Remember these words my friend, know that darkness and light are two tides of the same coin and that both are needed to make the coin”

Ales stared at Mikaru, he looked up to him, he was a man of courage and valor. Ales hoped that he'd find the same strength someday, but he knew that with the virus in his body, he'd live for a week if not less...

”Remember these words Ales, remember those” echoed throughout his head. He was back in the present again and realized that they had reached the mansion. Suddenly he realized that he had left Zelda defenseless and looked behind him, he found her standing there. She was tired but she still smiled at him, she didn't seem to care that Ales ignored her. They all went up to the mansion and knocked on the door. An old man opened the door and as he spotted Nalé a smile covered his lips.

”Nalé long time no see ol' chap, how've you been?” he said. Nalé smiled and hugged him, he seemed to be back in his good mood.

”Now aren't you gonna introduce me to these young fellas?” he said with a smile. Ales looked at him, he was short, thin and old, his eyes were tired but showed many signs of emotion. This man was wise and selfless, Ales could tell that simply by looking at him. He finally spoke:

”My name is Ales and i'm a friend of Nalé and this girl next to me....is someone very special”
The old count raised his eyebrows as Zelda took off her hood

”My name is Zelda and i am the princess of Hyrule” she said.

[Ales]

this must be the last post. Sorry for posting 4 times in a row:dry:



Chapter: 12
The old man went pale and quickly bowed down. Zelda gestured him not to and so the man got back up.

”Forgive me for my rudeness, we haven't gotten properly introduced yet, i am Ordonius Pumpkin Von Cheese of the cheese family.” the old man said. Nalé started smile a bit but tried to hold back most of it. As for Ales: he had a hard time holding the laughter too. Zelda was the only one who didn't seem to care, she gave the two hunters a hard look, Ales and Nalé ceased their smiling and entered the mansion.

 The mansion was huge, it had paintings everywhere and knight armours proudly standing alongside the walls. The main hall had a door straight ahead and two stairs leading to the second floor, the floor was covered by a red carpet. They entered the door straight ahead and sat at the fireplace. All across the room there were paintings and hylian shields. There was also a strtange armor that Ales had never seen before: it was golden and thick. The helmet reminded Ales of the ones gladiators were carrying during their fights in the distant land of Lynne.

The armor was holding a round golden shield and a large broadsword. Another thing that caught Ales' eye was a book named ”A war amongst the divine”. Von Cheese noticed Ales who just kept looking at the artifacts.

”Hey ol' chap you seem to be interested in my artifacts of old, am i correct?” he said with a smile.
Ales was a bit starteled but kept a neutral look on his face and said:

”Oh no i'm just...” was all he could say before Von Cheese carried on:

”i've always been fascinated with the divine and legends of old, something else i find interesting is the legendary bloodline of the Hylian knights of Hyrule” Von Cheese didn't seem to be stopping soon so Ales took a seat and listened:

”A long time ago at the dawn of our world a great evil threatened our land, it caused chaos and destruction, the people prayed for the godesses help but even the godesses were powerless, they could only create and not destroy. The legendary guardian of the triforce fell a long time ago and so nothing was able to stop the evil...until one day when a young man very skilled with the sword appeared and defeated the evil. This warrior was dubbed a knight and together with 3 other honorable men they formed what would become the Hylian knights. Many knows about the knight's bloodline but what most people don't know is that there are actually 4 seperate blodlines that are each bonded through the Hylian knights of old. Each knight including the young hero each started a family and passed on their legacy. The four bloodlines became as family.”

”Who is this young man? And what was the evil? And...who was that guardian?” Ales asked
Von Cheese continued:

”No one knows who any of the four knights were nor what evil that appeared, what we do know is that the long fallen guardian was called Sela, he was slain by the godesses' and everything living's enemy: Hesernagoth”

Ales' blood froze to ice as he heard the name, and an unexplainable rage started breathing in his soul. Von Cheese didn't seem to notice and carried on:


”A thing about the legend of Sela that i find interesting is that as he fell and was lying on the ground admist a battlefield with Hesernagoth's blade above his head, the evil one did not simply finish him off, no...he put a curse on Sela's soul a curse so evil that it had no limits. Sela were to watch the people he had fought for fall to ruin under Hesernagoth's command. And after the sweet embrace of death his soul would linger the world in thousands of years only to be reincarnated into a life that brought nothing but suffering and ruin.”

Ales felt a tear coming from his eye, all of the suffering he was told about in the story came to him ,all at the same time. Ales could barely breath and the rage within him kept growing. Von Cheese who loved storytelling simply continued:

”Hesernagoth was the one who fooled man into searching for the triforce, he made them start a war only to bring ruin upon themselves. Hesernagoth himself led a dark army and eventually ruled the world. Then as everyone had given up hope Sela had his revenge even after death. Somehow his divine spirit managed to destroy Hesernagoth and bring light to the world. It is said that as Hesernagoth was defeated he cursed something else, something unknown that would allow him to live on. Sela's blade Mizka was lost over the tides of time and no one truly knows exactly what it looked like. The godesses did not themselves know what Hesernagoth did to live on but as peace flourished he created his finest and darkest creation ever: Ganondorf the demon thief.
The godesses created a second guardian hoping that it would slay the evil one. That guardian is known among us as the hero of time.”

Ales didn't like where the story was heading and tried to change the subject:

”What kind of armor is that?” he said and pointed at the golden armor. Von Cheese expressed joy at it's max as he prepared himself for another history lesson:

”That my friend is a Hylian knight armor...but not just any Hylian knight. A legend of old tells of how one Hylian knight will rise from one of the bloodlines and take on the role as their leader, wielding the hero's sword and shield. This hero of legend should not be confused with the Hero of time though. I found that beautiful thing as i was researching the mountains of Holodrum. I quickly learnt that it originally came from Hyrule and so i moved here, and at the same time i learnt about many other legends.”

They all sat there with no word spoken for a while until Von Cheese finally said:

”So are you fellas going to tell me what exactly you are here for?” the three looked at eachother and finally with a deep sigh Zelda explained the situation.

Ales and Nalé went outside as Zelda spoke. The sky had turned dark and the moon's reflection on the snow was beautiful. A cold breeze blew through Ales' hair and he could do nothing but to smile at the beauty of the world he lived in. He turned to Nalé:

”We can't stay here forever  Nalé you know that right?” He said. Nalé sighed and finally smiled.

”We'll wait here until the king has solved the problem, then we can resume our lives and go get ourselves some nice bounties” he said. Ales shook his head:

”Nalé the king is probably dead, no one could survive an encounter with Link, we should stay on the move, i don't want the poor old man involved in this manner” Ales said.

”Didn't you survive your encounter with him Ales?” Nalé said with a smile. Ales shook his head once again and told Nalé about the fairy he had. Nalé turned pale at the thought.

”If we go on like this we'll be chased for years maybe only to be killed by his army in the end, we must make a standoff sometime” Ales said trying to convince Nalé. Nalé simply shook his head and said with a depressed voice:

”We'll see what destiny has in store for us.” Ales always found it strange that Nalé didn't believe in the godesses or the legends of old, but he believed in destiny. Ales wasn't sure if it was the same thing though. Ales decided to head back inside to the other two, Nalé told him that he'd be right with him. He just wanted to have some more fresh air and think things over since everything was a mess. Ales nodded and headed back inside into the warm mansion. Inside he was welcomed by Von Cheese and his servants offered him tea. Ales didn't want any though.

He looked at the hylian knights armor and noticed that it had a sign that said ”Hero's armor”.
Ales had a part of his past that only he and Mikaru knew about...something that was once again brought to life in his mind as he had heard the story of the Hylian knights...






Chapter: 13

Von Cheese had granted them each on room to stay in. It was no use to convince him otherwise due to the high number of rooms. Ales was lying on his bed thinking of the last time he and Mikaru spoke. It was a sad moment, and he couldn't help but to think of the curse that this ”Hesernagoth” being put upon Sela's soul...or rather his own soul, he still couldn't accept the fact that he was the incarnation of Sela. His life had always been one of suffering. Everything fit so well with the legend. He closed his eyes and sighed. He hadn't slept in a good while and finally he could relax for a while. The room smelled like a museum and looked like one too. But Ales didn't care since the bed was so relaxing and soft. Slowly he was drifting away into the realm of dreams.

Falling in darkness for what seemed like an eternity he could spot something that resembled a huge sphere shaped building slowly starting to show it's face as he fell closer to it. He looked closer, the sphere shaped object wasn't a building: it was something he couldn't make out. Then something seemed to open in the sphere, it was a mouth and it's dark fangs and foul breath came closer and closer. The adrenaline pumped through his veins and he somersaulted in air and took a leap from one of the huge fangs. Suddenly he ended up in a huge web and the sphere shaped monster appeared again, this time he could see it's entire body: It was an enourmus spider with a sphere shaped head with only a mouth which had venomous fangs. Above the mouth were two empty holes that stared at him. The dark holes that were it's eyes could see right through him, or at least that's how it felt. It had heavy breathing, it's sphere shaped head seemed to be made out of something white greyish and it seemed to be rotting judging from the smell, after a while he realized what it was made of: thousands and thousands of dead people's faces. The spider came closer with a rapid speed until a familiar voice was heard:

”Little Phoenix little pohoenix trapped in my web, little phoenix fly no more” it said. The voice was dark and cruel and sounded as if the spider was sleep walking for it had a sluggish tone over it.
Nevertheless he knew where he had heard this voice before, it had taken so much and it would continue doing it until there was nothing left to take except his soul.

”Your soul will make a great addition to my sphere of darkness little phoenix”
He gazed upon the sphere shaped head with the empty dark holes, the sewn together and tormented rotting faces were souls from the many innocents this being had consumed. He was soon also going to be a part of that collection...no he would not allow it.

”A cornered phoenix is far more dangerous than it's nemesis” he yelled as he drew his blade and slashed himself free with it's mighty magic. The light that shone from it made the spider scream in agony and turn back. He bounced on the web allowing him to jump incredibly high and soon he was several meters above the spider as he somersaulted once in the air and then thrusted his blade downwards making it strike the sphere with severe force. The sphere blew up and millions of tormented spirits escaped, the spider faded away and the web disappeared.

Ales woke up, quickly scanning the room too see if the spider was back. Finding nothing he let out a breather and said:

”Hesernagoth?”

His door slowly opened, Ales quickly got up on his legs and took the Mizka and held it ready.
Zelda's innocent eyes stared at him. Ales lowered his sword and put it back. He sat down on the bed  
and finally said:

”Yes can i help you princess?” Zelda laughed, she found Ales' cockyness humorous in some sort of way.

”I heard you screaming, bad dream?” She said. Ales simply nodded and then told her he was fine.
Zelda looked down on the floor and then sat down beside him and tear started flowing from her eyes. Zelda explained to Ales how she felt: she and Link had been close friends since childhood and she had always wished that their playful moments would last forever. Now she's confused to why Link would do this. She felt betrayed and lonely. More tears started flowing from her eyes.

”I understand what you're going through Zelda and i do wish that i could correct the wrongs for you, but i can't” Ales calmly said. Zelda looked at his face, it was filled with sorrow and grief but also anger, Ales was starteled since he had never seen her like this.

”How could you understand? You're just a bounty hunter living his life without any troubles, why you'd be Sela is beyond me” she yelled at Ales. Ales felt almost as if an arrow had pierced his heart. His past contained so much sorrow that it was almost ridiculous, this woman took all the pain he felt even today within him and threw it in his face. Ales was simply enraged. Violently grabbing her arm he yelled:

”What the hell do you believe you actually know about suffering? Have you ever played the peasants role? Have you ever been forced to fight a war? You're just a ****ing spoiled brat who knows nothing of how life really works.” Zelda started to yell something in her defense but Ales interrupted her again:

”Why don't you just shut the hell up?” Ales dragged her to her room with a firm grib around her ponytail, Zelda had never endured such physical pain before, Ales stood aat the entrtance to her room still holding her tightly in the ponytail. Zelda once again was about to say something but Ales made a sign telling her to be quiet and yelled:

”You can go to hell, if you're lucky maybe you'll only get half of the suffering i've had in my life”  he pushed her into the room and locked the door thus trapping her there.

Ales left the area to see what Nalé and Von Cheese were up to, the rage still boiled within him. He found the two sitting in the library. As they noticed him they smiled and Von Cheese said:

”Hi there Ales how are you keepin' up? Oh and where is the beloved princess?”. Ales frowned and sat down, he looked at them for a while and then finally said:

”Our ”beloved” princess is currently in her room”. They all sat there for about an hour reading through the many books that the libray held. Suddenly a loud crash was heard from Zelda's room....

[Ezlo]

A loud crash... then what?

Like it so far, but it can't end like that!

[Ales]

Don't worry it's still in the works and as a matter of fact chapter 14 is done now:happy:





Chapter: 14

The room was cold as the cold winds now could penetrate the house through the large hole in Zelda's room. Something had destroyed a wall and taken her away. Ales was devestated seeing as this was his fault: had he never locked Zelda in this would've never happened. Von Cheese picked up something that looked like white fur.

”Bloody Yetis has taken her” he said with a pale face. Ales turned around and grabbed Von Cheese by the throat demanding to know where the yetis were taking her. Von Cheese's eyes were filled with fear of Ales but finally responded:

”They live in a huge cave just south of my mansion, they're going to use her as food for some ritual of theirs, they always do that this time of the year i just know it”. Ales dropped him causing Von Cheese drop to the floor with a thud. His hands were trembling and he fell on his knees. His one eye was soaking wet from tears. This was not what he had wished. He remembered the good times he had with her. She was more like a friend than someone you just protect. Ales smashed his fist into a table causing it to break. He got back up on his legs and exited through the hole going south and following the footprints.

”I'm coming Zelda” he thought. In an icy cavern she was thrown into a cage. The yetis were discussing how they'd eat her:

”We cook it uh” one of them said. The other one shook it's head and said:

”No humans not great enough, we chop to bits”. They both chuckled in a bizarre way. The chieftain of the yetis came into the room, he was a big Yeti with a red cape made out of wool and wore a big helmet made out of the skeleton of a yetis head. When the Yetis decide to have a new chief the old one must fight the challenging Yeti. If the challenger kills the old Chieftain he must extract the skull from the old one and wear it as a trophy.

”You two chop it, then we make big soup.” the chief said. The two Yetis looked at eachother and grinned. Zelda was forced to stay in her cage awaiting her doom for hours until a Yeti finally opened it and grabbed her, it was so strong and she couldn't even hope to break free. She was taken to a large chamber in which hundreds of yetis were watching. Zelda was chained to a table and the chief himself walked up to her with a huge spear made of ice. Zelda cried and begged them not to hurt her. The chief smiled and said:
”Humans very pathetic beings, we yeti help them do good for my people, you will be remembered”

the ice spear came closer with high speed and Zelda only had 3 seconds left to live. She regret everything she had said to Ales and missed all the others. She wished she could get another chance and ask Ales for forgivness for how foolish and naive she had been. She wanted to see her friends and the green fields of Hyrule again. Suddenly as the spear was about to plunge into her it was knocked away by something so quick that it couldn't be seen. The spear fell to the ground and everyone looked around after whatever could've caused it. Behind them Ales unsheated his sword and pointed it towards the chieftain.

”Release  her this instant”he yelled, the rage was boiling within him. The chief smacked himself on the breast and said with a stubborn look:

”Me big chief of yeti, i don't take order from puny human uh” Ales' rage grew bigger and he clammed his teeth together.

”You big retard uh, now release her or i'll be whiping my *** with your skin” he yelled once again. The chief was enraged and picked up his ice spear and prepared himself for his battle with Ales.

The chief charged Ales with his mighty force, Ales dodged by rolling under his legs and shoved his sword into the chief's back making him scream in pain. The chief made a roundabout similiar to a spin attack, Ales jumped on top of the spear and then made a second quick jump leaping from it somersaulting and cut him in the face with the sword. Blood flew from the chief's face and he roared in pain. Ales was back on the ground again face to face with the angered chief. The chief waved his ice spear violently through the air. Ales dodged it with a sidestep which led to him rolling around the chief so that he was behind him, as he reached his back he made a small jump while spinning around resulting in multiple cuts on the chiefs back.

”I cook you for dinner too uh” the chief roared in anger. He started chasing Ales towards a wall planning to corner him there. Ales jumped towards the wall and leaped from it and while in air positioned himself so that he could stab his sword into the chief's breast. The chief fell on his knees
while roaring in agony as Ales pulled out his sword from his breast. The chief was tired and dizzy now and Ales knew it was time to finish him off. He ran towards him and smacked him with the Mizka's hilt and then made a huge jump so that he ended up above the chief's head, there he continued his onslaught and somersaulted while holding his sword out greeting the chief with his blade. He then landed behind the chief who fell to the ground completely exposed. Ales turned around and built up speed. He then made another huge jump and with a downthrust planted the Mizka in the chief's head.

After a couple of seconds the chief wasn't moving anymore. The other yetis watched in amazement. Ales walked up to Zelda and freed her. A little Yeti boy ran towards the dead chief screaming:

”Father” tears fell from his eyes. He hugged the fallen Yeti and sobbed. The other Yetis were enraged and many of them stormed Ales and Zelda. Ales gave them a good fight and killed several. He was in rage and killing them made him feel better. Zelda begged him to stop slaughtering them but Ales kept killing them even once they fled in fear. Ales took up the palm of his hand created a huge wall of fire that burned several yetis. Many younger Yetis came forward to the fallen older ones and cried. Ales had been rapidly killing their parents and enjoyed every second of it. Ales suddenly realized what he had done and dropped his sword in fear.

”W-what have i done?” he said with a terrified look on his face.

Suddenly all the yetis that were left fled and ran out of the cave, Ales and Zelda both wondered why
when they felt the ground shake. The Ice cavern was collapsing due to the heat of the fire Ales had summoned. Ales and Zelda ran towards the entrance hoping to get out. Dodging several rocks that fell from the ceiling they had it within aim. Zelda was running a meter ahead of Ales but as she reached the exit a huge boulder fell towards her. Ales gasped in fear and threw himself at Zelda, he managed to grab ahold of the rock before it hit her but several debris was falling upon it and it became heavier. Ales used all of his strength to hold it up.

”Zelda go i can't hold it much longer, the cave will collapse.” He said. Zelda looked at him in fear and shook her head, Ales kept insisting that she'd go.

”Ales i'm not leaving you here” she said with tears in her eyes. Ales who could barely hold it all up looked at her and smiled.

”I'm sorry princess but this might hurt” Ales said and kicked Zelda a bit making her fly a meter. Once she had gotten out he could finally relax. Zelda got up on her legs and screamed:

”Ales no!” but Ales had already dropped the debris and he was trapped inside, and before she knew it the cave had completely collapsed and only debris and lot's of snow was left.

Zelda fell on her knees and cried, as did many of the younger Yetis that had escaped. Their home was gone and their parent's were dead.

Zelda had started making her way towards the mansion and she could see it tone up in the distance...but something was wrong: she could see smoke and many figures down in the distance. She stood there just looking at it for a while until she heard footsteps behind her. She turned around and saw the one she had always cared for: Link stood there smiling at her. Zelda's hands shook as she wanted to hug him but she knew she couldn't. She fell to her knees again and the tears flowed.

”Good day princess Zelda” he said with a jolly voice and then rammed the dark blade's hilt into her face, and then everything went black...

[Ales]

Chapter 15 is done


Chapter: 15

She was standing on an empty field, the gentle breeze and the green grass made her feel at peace.
Birds were singing in the trees and she was enjoying every moment of it. In the distance she spotted someone...someone she knew. She couldn't make out who this person was so she wandered closer and then she saw him: Ales was standing there smiling at her.

”Ales!” she cried out with joy. They both ran towards eachother and hugged eachother. Tears of joy fell from her eyes and she loved the warmth she felt from him. Suddenly the wind grew colder and Ales' warmth disappeared. As she hugged him she could hear several bones crack and it felt like every bone inside him was broken.

She let go of him and looked at him. Blood was everywhere around him and half of his face was gone showing the crushed skull with brain substance seeping out. His head was twisting and turning and she backed away. He moved towards her slowly and it looked as if he barely could walk and at the same time his head was twisting and turning. The grass withered and the trees were caught on fire. She wanted to scream as he came closer but her voice had disappeared. Ales fell to the ground and she could hear the crack of several bones as he smashed into the ground. At the distance Link appeared laughing while holding a piece of the triforce that strangely was covered in a dark cloud.

Ales' dead corpse was now gone and she was pulled through the ground by hands of the dead grabbing her legs. She tried to scream again but yet she had no voice. The dirty ground started to cover her face as she was being pulled down. Worms and maggots were crawling in through her nose and ears everywhere and she could no longer breath.

”No” could be heard throughout the dark halls. Her heart beat faster than ever and sweat covered her body. She was lying in a bed inside a room with no windows. A candle stood on a table as the only source of light. She got up and tried to open the closed door but it was locked. She didn't know where she was except that this place was unholy and probably a keep for Link's army. After trying to pick the lock open for an hour she gave up and laid down on the bed. Footsteps where heard on the outside and sounds of the door unlocking was heard.

A Moblin stood there holding a key and a club. It signaled her to follow it and so she did. She was taken to an enormous hall with a throne made out of bones. On it she spotted Link who still had a smile on his face. He signaled all his minions to leave them and she found herself alone with him in the huge room.

”Welcome to my new home princess Zelda, it's a bit bigger than the tree house i used to live in” he said. Zelda was afraid...afraid of what he might do. Link felt her fear and enjoyed it and thus continued:

”I must thank you for falling asleep there since that made getting your piece of the triforce much easier. Yes I already have it and now we're going for Ganondorf's”. Zelda protested:

”You know that Ganondorf will never join you nor cooperate with you, he's a selfish man....just like you are now”. Link laughed and got up from his throne and slowly approached her. He was standing next to her drawing his hand through her hair smiling but Zelda felt disgusted and shrugged. Link held her in the arm and refused to let go of her, he pulled her towards him.

”You're as beautiful as always Zelda but just like your father you're a coward hiding behind your title” He said. Zelda tried to get out of his grip but couldn't.

”Ah yes your father, our meeting was indeed a fun one...at least for me” Link said now with an evil grin. Zelda felt her heart drop to the ground, everything felt wrong and she was worried about her father.

”What have you done with my father? And where is he?” Zelda yelled with a mixture of fear and anger in her voice. Link scratched his chin and looked as if he was pondering something. He finally responded:

”Here and there i suppose” Zelda didn't understand but she knew that he was dead and started hitting Link even though she wasn't so strong. Link just grinned and broke her arm. The tears flowed and she cried. Link laughed sadisticly. He let go of her and she fell crying to the ground.

”You might be wondering how i found you so quickly yes?” he said with the same smile as before.

Zelda nodded but could not say anything as the pain was too great. Link stepped  up to his throne and sat down.

”It was all thanks to a guy i hired, you can come in now” he suddenly yelled at the main hall door.
The door opened and a familiar face came inside. Zelda was shocked upon seeing this person, her pain was forgotten and anger replaced it.

”Nalé you....how could you?” she screamt. Nalé ignored her and turned to Link.

”Where is my payment? You promised me as much rupees that i could wish for” he said with a stubborn look.

”Your mission was to give me Zelda and make sure that Ales was removed, You cleared the Zelda part but we do not know if Ales survived or not” Link said with a bothered look. Nalé grinned and took out a piece of cloth. Link was curious what it was and got up from his throne. He took the piece of cloth and started opening it.

”I searched the rubble, Ales won't be bothering you anymore” Nalé said with the same grin.

As Link had removed the cloth he smiled, the object he held was nothing less than the Mizka. He looked at it triumphantly and used his magic to open a door, inside there were treasures beyond imagination. Nalé rushed into the room with no more words spoken.

”I am a man of my word, you may take as much as you please” Link said. Nalé stuffed as much as he could carry and told Link he'd be back for more later. Link nodded as Nalé exited the room. He then looked at the Mizka, it was truly a beautiful blade: the hilt was like the mastersword's but upside down and it was golden with red rubies engraved in the handle. The blade itself had the same edge as the mastersword but held an engraving that spelled ”Fire” instead of a triforce like the mastersword. He turned to Zelda and smiled.

”It seems like Ales truly is dead then afterall princess”...

Thanks a lot:)
and y'know this might be the first fic i ever finish so i know what you're going through

just keep writing and you'll finish a story someday:ph34r:

[ZeldaMaster]

ya it's interesting. when is the next chapter coming?

[Sheldon Cooper PhD]

why is this so freakin long!!!

[Marrie22]

Thanks a lot:)
and y'know this might be the first fic i ever finish so i know what you're going through

just keep writing and you'll finish a story someday:ph34r:

True, true! Mostly when I feel like writing that I can write a lot in one day, but I often don't have much time for that. I still got a fan-fic from 3 years ago that's about the biography of Waluigi (Wario's cool skinny brother)..from Wario Bros' existence, to Waluigi's childhood and presence, forced robbery, drugs, ..to his deepest desire for Daisy. Not that I would post the fan-fic so quick on a forum such as this, it also contains bad language, violence and extreme maturity.
I resumed the story a few months ago for a little, when I came up with the idea to introduce Link into the story. When he and Waluigi meet, he barely speaks a word of English, he seems to be depressed. Later it becomes clear that he wants to escape his heroic identity after years of fighting, saving and slaying. He joins Waluigi's gang, to become a different Link. That part of the fan-fic is one and all 'feel good', and mostly sex, drug and rock'n roll. But seeing that I'm still at the beginning of my fan-fic, it will take numberous chapters until I reach that part..and I'm way too lazy for that..

That's why I prefer to draw. You should check out my thread named: Hylian sketches (it's in the same section of this forum), it contains sketchwork of some of my own created Hylian characters. It seems that you have a few self designed Hylian characters as well in your fan-fic.. You should draw them, and if you like you may post them in my thread!

[Ales]

Your fic sounds interesting( it's seems like an original story but that's good actually:) )

I'll check your drawings Hylian schetches right?

Oh and i'd probably draw my chars someday if it wasn't for the fact that i've never had much talent in drawing:mellow:  

ya it's interesting. when is the next chapter coming?

Thanks, the next chapter will come once school calms down a bit:dry:

why is this so freakin long!!!

Because i have way too much sparetime sometimes:ph34r:

[Marrie22]

You don't wanna know how long just one chapter of my fan-fic is.. That could be the reason why it's taking so long!

Yes, my fan-fic is like any other 'fanfiction'. Based on true facts, but I put the biography in a whole different twist. I could mail you my two chapters, just to show you how it looks right now? Well, let me know.

chapter 16 is finally done:happy:

MAJOR background info on Hesernagoth in the chapter

Chapter: 16

”I know he's alive” she screamt at the fallen hero in front of her. Link smirked and put the Mizka on his throne once again approaching her.

”Do you know what place this is my dear princess?” he said while studying the architecture himself.
Zelda shook her head as she looked around: the entire place was dark with torches on the walls. There were inscriptions on the walls in a language she did not recognize. There were carvings of diferrent bizarre things but one of them caught her eye: it was a carving of an army of people approaching a hill and on top of it was the triforce. They all wanted it and millions of dead people surrounded the army. Behind the triforce stood a dark and vile looking knight with huge black horns on his hemlet and a huge dark sword.

Link noticed how Zelda gazed on that particular drawing and smiled.

”That drawing describes the ruin of man and rise of Hesernagoth, the place we are currently standing in was once the safe haven of a certain cult called ”the fallen”.” He walked across the room and stared at another carving with a lot of text that was in the same strange language. He then continued:

”In ancient times when Hesernagoth appeared he corrupted several people who also corrupted several and so on, these who joined forces with evil were the fallen and in order to be able to communicate in secret they designed their own language, as i'm looking at this carving i can tell you that it says...” Link hesitated a bit and looked at Zelda who didn't take her eyes off him. Link didn't like it when people stared at him but he decided to ignore it and continued:

”Power he was neglected, power he stole, destruction he threw on a creation, making his life whole”
Zelda seemed a bit puzzled but Link really did enjoy this small historical question so he continued:

”This tells us of Hesernagoth's life a bit. Hesernagoth was the son of Nielathir the god of war. To us Hylians the gods seem like immortal beings but that is not true: gods live in a world just like we do and can also die. In charge of the gods were the three godesses: Din, Nayru and Farore. They loved to create and so they decided to create a smaller world, namely the world we live in now. Hesernagoth was enraged of this and wanted them to think more of their own people than our world. He tried to take over the role as a leader but failed and was neglected any power whatsoever by his father.”

Zelda had never heard this part of the legend before and despite her bad situation she was interested.
Link carried on:

”The reason his father would not let him posess power was because everyone could tell that Hesernagoth was a god of evil and destruction. Hesernagoth found a way though: in a certain temple among the gods there was an orb that held the esscence of an ancient and passed away god, the god that created the other gods..or so it is said. Hesernagoth smashed the orb with a dark energy that he had posessed since birth thus shattering the orb and transferring all the power to himself.
He killed his father and all the other gods until only the godesses remained. They could not destroy but only create so they could do nothing against Hesernagoth's wrath. They fled like cuccos and so Hesernagoth aimed at destroying the very thing that enraged him: our world.”

Link walked to another part of the room which held a carving on the wall that resembeled the same dark knight who seemed to be at mercy of a phoenix. Link sighed and continued:

”Hesernagoth fooled man into starting a war for the triforce thus destroying themselves, he found this way of destroying them much more amusing, the Hylian knights opposed him and the fallen of course but ironically only the bloodline of the ancient hero and another who's name has been lost in time were the only remaining ones. The other two had joined the fallen and they too searched for the triforce. Hesernagoth promised the fallen ultimate power and wealth beyond imagination if they were to join him and as you know man is a very primitive and easily fooled being. Hyrule was a chaos and just as it's destruction neared the godesses had a plan...”

”Sela” Zelda said. Link nodded with another deep sigh. He stood still with no words spoken for several minutes. He took another breath and continued:

”Yes Sela the one who brought forth the fall of Hesernagoth and thus the end of the great war but not without a price. Sela was destroyed by Hesernagoth but returned in a spirit form and shattered his body only leaving his esscence, you see the only way to truly kill a god is to destroy it's esscence. Hesernagoth's esscence lingered the world until it found a way to once again rebuild it's strength. From wherever this hiding place was he proceeded into creating his son: ”Ganondorf” the evil king whom i sealed away year's ago.”

”Why Link have you gone this far? Why are you doing this?” Zelda said with tears in her eyes. Link grinned and ignored her question.

”Having no defender of the triforce anymore the godesses proceeded into creating me and thus history repeats itself: me a human version of Sela and Ganondorf the human son of Hesernagoth facing eachother. Of course everything took an unexpected turn didn't it?”

Zelda nodded with her sad eyes and she didn't want to listen anymore. Link felt this and therefore continued:

”When i met Ales i knew that he was special and come to think about it, it can't be a mere coincidence that Ales spelled backwards becomes Sela now can it? And so i found myself facing off against the original defender. Luckily everything sorted itself out when Ales felt like getting some massage from some heavy debris”

Zelda wanted to hit him but she remembered her broken arm and the pain that flowed from it.

”A phoenix always arises from the ashes Link, i don't think you should be relaxing just yet” Zelda said with a snappy voice. Link didn't like that and positioned himself right next to her and said with an evil smile:

”I could kill you since i have no further use of you, but i've been thinking and you would be great for....personal amusement...”

[ZeldaMaster]

...so when does link get Hesernagoth out or him and everything goes back to normal. waiting on Ch. 17 keep up the good work.

[Marrie22]

Still very exciting to read, Ales. Keep up the good work! *thumbs up*
