chapter 8

Once again, Link found that he needed to go after Vaati and rescue zelda. He took the four sword, and set out to rescue the six maidens and zelda in the eight sections of hyrule. The water level had gone up considerably, so hyrule had become more of a large island. when he began his adventure, he lifted a large rock and tingle climbed out. he once again matched link to a forest fairy and told him of his tingle towers. Link traveled to all of them throughout his adventure.

He traveled through lake Hylia and a cave next to it to reach Hyrule castle where he met and defeated phantom ganon and rescued the blue maiden. Next, he traveled through the east coast of Hyrule to the village of the blue maiden, into the eastern temple. He rescued the yellow maiden there and continued on.

He then traveled to death mountain; up its foothills, down the mountain path, and into the tower of flames to rescue the green shrine maiden. He went to the fields and safely escorted a farm girl, malon, back to her home at the lon-lon ranch. He then rode their horses through the swamps to infiltrate Hyrule castle once again. After a fierce battle with dark link, he rescued the white maiden from the ghost lord jalhalla.

Next he traveled through a dark world portion of Hyrule, the lost woods and Kakariko village. He fought phantom Ganon once again and rescued the red maiden. Then he traveled to the desert of doubt, where he obtained the pegasus boots that the first link used. He used them to speed through the desert, reach the pyramid temple. The trident that rested had been stolen by a man of the desert tribe, Ganondorf. He remembered this as he rescued the purple maiden and continued on.

He traveled through a frozen section of Hyrule, through the ice temple, to the tower of the winds, where he defeated Vaati and rescued Zelda, but had to escape when Ganondorf destroyed the tower.

He then traveled to the palace in the sky, where he reached the dark mirror and fought dark Link. After he killed dark Link, another one emerged from the dark mirror. He continued like this until Zelda sealed the mirror. Link thought he saw one escape and fall to earth, but it may have been his imagination. He made his way to the palace of the winds, where he fought Vaati again. After he was defeated, the palace collapsed, and he and zelda found themselves confronted with ganondorf. Link fought, while protecting Zelda, and eventually defeated ganon. Then he and Zelda returned home.

"You have failed me for the last time, Vaati!" Xekora said, both his apprentices before him.

"Please, master!I-" "NO! I gave you three tries and you failed. Ganon-" he pointed at him, then Vaati. "-Kill him. Kill him now." Vaati's face contorted with rage, then he charged at Xekora in anger, only to be stabbed by Ganon's trident. He fell to the ground, and two objects fell from his fading body. Xekora quickly grabbed one, his black diamond becoming a trapezoid pointing to the top left of his right hand. He picked up the other one, a small waker with wind like designs. he shrugged and set it aside.

"ganon, the four sword." He presented it to Xekora, and he took it, smashing it in half with his bare hands. "I hate this thing, might as well get rid of it." He opened a small portal, and threw the waker and the sword halves into it.

"now, a human body may do you some good." he said, addressing ganon. "Search Hyrule for a body capable of housing your dark power, then do what you need to to obtain the triforce." ganon looked confused by this. "yeah, they kicked the middle part out of the triforce, so it's a triad now. I'll take care of the missing chunk, you go for the other three."

"Yes, my lord." he bowed, then left the room. Xekora resumed what he was doing before the conversation, fusing a huge pile of force gems into his blades.
