The Legend of Zelda – Return To Hyrule (Fan Fiction)
Introduction
It happened a long time ago, we the people of Hyrule lived
in peace, protected by the kind and just rule of the royal family. Life was
great with the bountiful harvests we were blessed with each year, the calming
breeze that blew across the land was a gentle one that seemed to show the peaceful
days ahead, that is until that one wind.
One morning a harsh, overpowering wind blew in all
directions. We should have known something was going to happen, but since that
wind went as quickly as it came we didn’t bother with it, but that night when
all the kids were asleep, it began.
I awoke that night to the sounds of people running outside,
the people of Kakariko Village seemed to be in a panic. The all kept looking in
one direction and when I looked I saw an eerie red glow coming from the north
east, the direction of North Castle Town. I then saw my father outside the
house and I called to him with worry in my voice. He turned to me with a feared
look in his face, but it quickly turned to a smile, but I could tell he was
forcing it to try and calm me down because his eyes were still full of dread.
He told me that he and some other swordsmen in the village were going to go
assist the people of North Castle Town, and that I should go back to the bed I’ll
be back in a few days. He turned away from me and said the line I will never
forget, “Don’t do anything hasty, protect your mom and friends, but never give
up your own life.”
Those were the last words he ever told me…
I couldn’t get to sleep that night as I watch the eerie glow
afar, my father was there. Why was he and other swordsmen sent there? Are they
fighting something? These questions roamed in my head while the glow seemed to
spread to the castle itself.
When the sun finally rose the next morning, it seemed that
the glow had diminished quite a bit, however ominous dark clouds swirled around
North Castle Town. Soon I felt a pain in my heart and I knew something was wrong;
it seemed my mother could sense it as well. It was then I knew my father wasn’t
coming back.
It was later told to us children that the castle had fallen
and monsters were starting to appear outside the village. Even though we children
were scared the elders only smiled and said not to worry, the hero of legend
will surely come to are aid. This story of a legendary hero was hard for some
to believe, but since all the notable elders kept telling of the story during
this time, even the grownups were able to settle down.
One night however, I was awoken being carried in my mother’s
arms. Behind us I saw are village on fire. She told me to try and stay calm; I
didn’t know what was going on so I just hung to my mother tightly. We started
wondering around Hyrule, but whenever we got someplace we would soon have to
leave. The monster army seemed to attack wherever we went. After running around
for what seemed like weeks, we and other people who joined us fled to the
desert and left Hyrule behind.
After going through the desert for a few days we came across
a canyon with many caves in its walls, at the bottom of this canyon was a
river. Everyone was tired and couldn’t run anymore, so they decided to build a
new home here. It was tough, the wind was harsh, but we were alive.
And that my children, is the story of how we left are home
in Hyrule and became the Desert Refugees.
