It is several years after the great battle between Link and Ganondorf. The years that needed to be "re-lived" have passed, and Hyrule is in a state of tranquility. Zelda, the lone Princess ruling the Hyrule Throne with help from Link, has been good to her people. The land is flourishing and both the Zoras and Gorons are in peace. Even the Gerudo thieves have let down their guard a little.
But after seemingly endless peaceful nights, Zelda awoke shaking from a nightmare. Not just an ordinary nightmare. It was one of those dreams that she knew was more than "just a dream." And she hadn't had one of these certain kinds of dreams since the time of Ganondorf...
- - - Flashback - - -
Zelda awoke suddenly from her bed. She sat up, eyes wide, watching the room intently. A dull nagging was creeping in the corner of her mind; a sense of trouble that she couldn't quite shake. She shut her eyes, willing herself to think clearly. And quite out of the blue (or rather, the very dark blue that was speckled with nighttime stars), she remembered.
She remembered the nightmare....
It was deep in the forest, where the trees were dense and the dusky shadows unwelcoming. Eyes followed the Princess - a gleaming, bright angel radiating her silvery-white innocence - down a path that was well, certainly not a marked path. She walked, slowly with caution, the watchful forest deadly silent around her. But she wasn't alone. Some feet ahead of her was a forest fairy glowing like a friendly lantern, beckoning Zelda into the suffocating darkness. Though she wasn't sure why, Zelda was entranced by the little fairy, feeling the desire to follow it. And so she did.
She followed the fairy, for hours it seemed, and the journey through the woods was not leading to any clearing. Zelda couldn't feel herself being tired - all she wanted was to follow the fairy to wherever it was going. She was so strangely mesmerized, oblivious to the hundreds of angry eyes staring her down.
The fairy drifted to a halt, then turned to Zelda, as if it were going to speak. Zelda opened her mouth to ask why it had stopped. But before she could utter into the black silence, the fairy rang out in alarm, the bell-like ring echoing loudly. It sped away, flying so quickly that Zelda lost sight of its comforting light in seconds. She turned around, wondering what in Hyrule could have scared her companion away.
Her awareness of the hundreds of angry eyes instantly kicked in. Zelda gasped, looking around frantically for a way out. But of course, nothing could be seen in that dense, haunting forest but the glowing eyes. The silence had been sucked away; the air was now filled with growls and heavy breathing of who knew what. Zelda froze in shock, not knowing what to do, her hazel eyes brightly filled with fear. And before she could scream, every creature lunged at her, growling and roaring for her blood.
Yet luckily, the creatures' claws and teeth never touched her. Because that was the moment she awakened.
Zelda reopened her eyes. She shivered for a second, not liking the thought of the nightmare at all. She climbed out of her bed and gathered up her sleeping gown, then tiptoed out into her balcony, which overlooked the Market, and further out from that, the beautiful land of Hyrule. The moon was large and bright tonight, like always, and the sky clear with stars.
But unlike the breathtaking clear sky, her mind was clouded with troubled thoughts. Her dream that had been so vividly real had to mean something was wrong in this peaceful land. And Zelda knew that dreams such as that nightmare, the ones that left her with that hazy evil sense, were to be taken quite seriously. Evil has, Zelda thought with a sickening feeling and a weary sigh, awoken once more. And we may, or may not....be able to stop it.
