"There are so many stories. Countless tales spoken across the vast rivers of time...
Tales of people and places gone by the years; Stories of Love...of Lust...Greed...Power...Friendship...Wisdom and Courage. Of monstrous evil and divine defenders. But within the vast Kingdom of Hyrule there's a familiar tale that seems to repeat across the ages: A story about a golden divine power on the peril of being swallowed by the darkness.
...The tale of a Beast, a Princess, and a Hero...
Tales of people and places gone by the years; Stories of Love...of Lust...Greed...Power...Friendship...Wisdom and Courage. Of monstrous evil and divine defenders. But within the vast Kingdom of Hyrule there's a familiar tale that seems to repeat across the ages: A story about a golden divine power on the peril of being swallowed by the darkness.
...The tale of a Beast, a Princess, and a Hero...
From countless of years, centuries and millennia, the history of these three individuals can be traced back to the very beginning. Of the word being forged by the Three Goddesses of Creation and who's peaceful life was placed in care of a lesser but incredible powerful and benevolent Diety, who came known as the Goddess Hylia, whos body and soul embraced everything with a sacred light. But as there cannot be light without shadow, this divine force of good also coexisted alongside a brewing darkness; A wellspring of chaos and hatred born from the depths of demise and despair.
Said darkness took many forms, but across multiple eras, the most well-known came in the force of a Man turned into a Beast; A monstrous pig enveloped by the powers of darkness. This Demon King was known by many names, but most stories speak of him by the name of Ganon...
In his many forms, whatever if as a Man pushed to the brink by his denied desires, or as forsaken Monster of pure hatred, Ganon always emerged in power and lied waste upon the land of Hyrule; But to stop him, two individuals always raised to confront his Divine Power: One was a a Princess bestowed in Wisdom, a reincarnation of the divine Hylia; The other was a man of humble beginnings, blessed by the goddesses with a unrelenting Courage. A warrior who fought to the very end, as the Hero who wielded the Sword that pierced the Darkness."
"Time and time again, the Princess and the Hero always found a way to vanquish the evil of Ganon and bring peace to Hyrule. Centuries later, the demon king managed to remerge and cause havoc once more, only to be brought down all over again; an endless cycle of Peace and Destruction...With each passing time, Ganon grew bigger and bigger in power, but at the cost of what little humanity he still held on, being absorbed and enveloped in the power of Malice. With the pass of the eras, the man he once were was far gone; Now nothing but a Calamity, an unrelenting force of rage and destruction...and even so, he was brought back into slumber, by the edge of the divine Blade...
Despite their best efforts, generation after generation, it seemed like this ancient evil would forever return one way or the other; The Princess and the Hero were locked, eternally trapped in this endless cycle of sacrifice, unable to truly achieve peace or fully live their lives out of the hands of fate...that is...until a particular fight between these three forces. The Hero and the Princess, alongside a powerful army of might and sorcery, engaged in an fierce war against Ganon, but as the Hero was delivering the final blow; His divine sword was encased in a blinding light. In an effort to finally free its master from this never-ending fight, the sacred blade shattered itself pieces and unleashed its sealed power in its full force; Striking the malice-infused monster and vanquishing the spirit of Ganon, seemly for good...
"From that time forward, it seemed that the cycle was finally broken. Years passed, and no beast rose to oppose the light...nor any Princess forward appeared to carry that once divine light, nor a trace of the Hero or his sacred sword. With peace finally achieved, Hyrule started to step into the modern world; Using the ancient technology of its past to ignite their brand-new future..."
"Stories of these three soon fell into legend....then into mere stories or fairy tales...many doubting they were even real. The names of these three characters fell into obscurity..."
"......"
"The Kingdom of Hyrule, with the help of the ever-devoted and technology-adept Sheikah, used their ancient knowledge to step the land into a new era. Acquired more modern technology utilizing energy crystals and complex machinery, some even manipulating the magic that was once was only at the hand of wizards and sorceress and implementing them into the every day life. Some races grew resentful of the Hylian Revolution that endured, whatever if for envy, or worry.,but either case; It appeared only the sky was the limit to this brand-new Hyrule..."
"...That is...until the greed of this revolution caused a deep wound within the citizens of the land..."
"Without the forces of chaos constantly antagonising the kingdom, the different races and clans started to distrust eachother. Perhaps creating a small shard of malice in their hearts. The Hylian reign became more and more powerful, taking advantage of the Sheikah technology to get the upper hand; The different races of Hyrule were at a brink of starting a war and part of the people of the Sheikah appeared to be growing bitter and resentful of their "masters"...However, the more wiser and older of the Sheikah came to a risky-but-necessary conclusion: If they were to stop this war from breaking out, someone or something had to become a common target...
As such, the Sheikah Sages created a machine that'd play the role of an unstoppable force that could only be defeated by the union of all races. Their name changes, many played the roles of villains and lead all the attention to them. Despite the loss and hardships, this plan was a success, and the Hylians learned a lesson of humility, as peace and unity was restored amongst the many inhabitants of the kingdom...but at a cost. Many of the Sheikah was still resentful of their previous treatment, as well as having to having to play the antagonistic role in fate...and so, the Clan itself broke from within; Many adopting their pretended name and disappearing. Nobody knows what became of these rouges, but the remaining noble Sheikah, realizing there was no longer need for them to accompany the Royal family of Hyrule with their job done, decided to erase themselves from history...their name simply falling into myth..."
"......"
"Many moons have passed since those times...The Hylians have grown to a balance between the their ancient ways and their modernized world, while other races have adopted new traits while others have decided to remain mostly the same. Regardless,
peace and prosperity seems to be reigning after the sacrifice of those long forgotten stories..."
peace and prosperity seems to be reigning after the sacrifice of those long forgotten stories..."
"......"
"But one has to wonder...what are the chances of a new Legend to be forged from those ancient tales...?"

- Prologue -
This dream in particular felt weird. Floating amongst a white either, nothing to see for miles. Was this the sky? Some other dimension? There was no way to tell. A soft breeze caressed his face as he stood afloat amongst the nothing when a soft voice ringed in his ears...or so one would hear; This was different, like he could hear the words, but not the voice.
"...you...are the light..."
A blurred figure appeared, far away from his position...
"...your courage....shall be our guide...."
It was hard to tell what it was saying, only a few words managed to reach him...
"History will repeat...you must be ready...."
A powerful blind amongst the nothing blinded him...and so the dream ended and Link opened his eyes....

~ Ordon Ranch ~
The early morning sun emerged from the horizon shined upon the vast green grass and the soft crop fields at the small but prosperous ranch. Ordon Ranch rested peacefully at the very border between the Lanayru and Faron provinces of the Central Hyrule region. The perfect position to welcoming the fresh morning breeze, as well as to avoid the more chilling winds of the night. A simple yet cozy patch and ambrosia amongst the already lush environments of the Hyrule fields. It was still somewhat secluded by tree, needing a dirty path before it reached the actual highway...
Of course this serene place didn't mean that this was a lazy morning. Currently an older man was already up and working. A muscular man with a somewhat lack of hair, wearing a simple sleeveless denim jacket, a white shirt and working jeans was carrying a big wooden box filled with multiple vegetables. With a mighty lift he placed them on the back of his truck-like vehicle. Unlike how our ideas of automobiles work, these one was different, but common in such a magical land like this one. The wheels glow of a blue hue, showing the mechanism that made them spin was functioning. The ancient yet techno-looking motor seemed to spout out of the hood, a big glowing crystal incrusted within it. That's just how automobiles worked here in Hyrule, as magi-technology had become a little more common amongst certain areas...
After placing the last box upon the truck, Mr. Bo swiped the sweat off his shining forehead. "Well, that's the last one..."
He looked around to see if anyone else was nearby. "Ilia? Ilia where are you, girl?"
He looked around, searching for the one named Ilia. Reaching near the stable entrance was a young woman of shot blonde hair and green eyes. Her skin soft yet slightly smudged with the dirt of work, yet only added to her ranch charm. She was in that age where her body had developed real nice, with alluring curves despite her common sized bosom. Her way of dress was of a more traditional farmer gal and was currently barefoot as she brushed the hair of a adult horse.
"Oh there you are..." Said Mr. Bo. "Been prepin' the horses all morning, dear? No need to over-prep them, tho. They won't be prancin' around till a couple of days in after all..."
Ilia smiled as she looked back at her father. "Yeah yeah. I just feel I should be taking care of them more now that ou repalced them for your brand-new truck.." She joked.
"Hey hey. Com on, honey. You know is not like that." Laughed the farmer man, "Besides, is it bad that I'm a little excited? A lot of Rupees went to pay for this beauty. it's gonna help up with the deliveries a ton!"
Ilia chuckled, "Just joking, dad, don't worry..." While yes, it was a little sad for her, who was always so inclined to nature, that the old delivery horses were starting to get too old, specially in comparison to the much more reliable automobile, but she was still happy for her father to be so full of energy...
"Say, did you check the Cucco coop today?" Asked Mr. Bo. Ilia stopped her brushing.
"Huh? I thought it was Link's turn today."
"Right right." Said the man, "Where's that boy anyways."
Ilia simply huffed and crossed her arms, looking away as she said, "Probably sleeping, as usual..."
"You're always so harsh on the lad, dear. I'll go wake him up, ok?"
Mr. Bo headed to the nearby house, roaming through the hallway before reaching a particular door. "Link? Hey Link! Raise and shine, boy!" He said as he knocked on the young man's door.
Inside Link's room, the boy was just waking up. The beep of the alarm clock app in his EyeSlate continuing to beep. The EyeSlate being this handy multi-purpose magitech slates, produced in mass based on ancient tools but modified for simpler and mass people use.
"You awake, Link? Come on boy, you can't be sleepin' all day. Wouldn't that look bad on your resume as a knight? Hahaha." Mr. Bo joked.
It was a brand new day...for Link...and unknowingly, for Hyrule itself.....
