This is but one of the legends of which the people speak... Long ago,
there existed a kingdom where a golden power lay hidden. It was a
prosperous land blessed with green forests, tall mountains, and peace.
But one day, a man of great evil found the golden power and took it for
himself... With its strength at his command, he spread darkness across
the kingdom. But then, when all hope had died, and the hour of doom
seemed at hand...
...a young boy clothed in green appeared as if from nowhere. Wielding
the blade of evil's bane, he sealed the dark one away and gave the land
light. This boy, who traveled through time to save the land, was known
as the Hero of Time.
The boy's tale was passed down through generations until it became a
legend... But then...a day came when a tall wind began to blow across
the kingdom. The great evil that all thought had been forever sealed
away by the hero... returned once again to bring destruction to the
kingdom.
The people of the land prayed for a new hero, but they received none.
And so the evil broke free and destroyed the kingdom... ...only few
chosen by fate survived.
The memory of the kingdom vanished, but its legend survived on the
wind's breath. On a certain island, it became customary to garb boys in
green when they came of age. |
