Chapter Text
It was until dusk did Link finally wake up.
He was confused why he was at Aryll's tower then a massive headache that makes Link bangs his head against the floor a few times to lessen it.
Not the best mechanism.
"Ugh..." Link groaned, both hands holding his head because what else to hold. Eyes squeezing hard and hand pulling out his hair for a desperate attempt to distract the pain. He should try to run back to the house, get Granny's magical soul and at least 3 jars of red potion. His vision sways and Link falls to his side with a grunt.
Light golden gleaming and flashing violently. the mangled sound of whispers wail in Link's ears, too fast and distant. Waves of power overflowing through Link's body. Hot and unbearable.
"Ha...hah...ah!" Link wails miserably, curling into himself.
'It's okay little hero,' an angelic voice spoke cutting through and shutting up all the pitching whispers. All pain and miserableness disappear into a warm thin air encircling him then into a shape of a giant Golden woman with every shape of greens sparkling drape. Her gigantic hand reaches out and cupping Link into her palms and her chest.
Link eyes fluttering and he gave a loose breath. Never feel so drowned in love, of god's tenderness and endorsement.
'For one to suffer suck pain to receive one's blessing of great strength.' She spoke, voice echoing warm of a lullaby.
'You will need this to fight him in the future Link. I can't connect with him anymore, he walks into faraway lands, so far away, out of my reach and I can't know If he is still the same.' She says, her melody voice heavy with sorrow.
'If he wishes for destruction, you will strike him down.' Her voice loads with stoic. 'If he wishes for peace at his final resting place then you will honor that wish.'
Link tries to find her face, try to any meaning behind her words but her light is too bright and his consciousness is fading, eyes' lip threatened to shut. 'Make this right for me my Champion.' With those final words, she kisses his forehead and the world around him dances back into his island.
"...big brother!"
"BIG BROTHER WAKE UP!" Link shot right up, so fast so that he falls into his butt due to dizziness.
"Wha-!" Link gasped.
"How long do you plan to sleep!" Aryll yells again. Her thin arms cross and an angry scowled on her pretty face.
"It's almost dinner you lazy head!"
"Huh?!" Link feeling more and more like a fish out of water. What is Aryll talking about? Lunch? Dinner? Where is he anyway?
"I-Uhm..." Link mumbled, he mindless looks down at his hand as it rudding against the surface of the wooden floor of the tower. He at Aryll's tower... What was he...Link closes his eyes in concentration, the feeling of The mysterious Goddess's blessing ruin throughs in his vein and piece of memory and knowledge flooding his mind.
"Brother? Are You okay?" Aryll asks worriedly upon her brother's uncharacteristic silence.
"Brother! Your hand!" She gasps in awe, hands shielding her eyes from her brother's triforce blazing light.
The boy in green...was here...gold hair and Purple eyes...outlander...carrying the holy relic...worshiped another god...He doesn't belong here...not anymore...What will he do?... I need to find him...he's the...Hero of Time!
Link's eyes shot wide and his jaw dropped, he stood up suddenly almost knocking his sister aside.
"Eek!"
That boy is the hero of time, heroin in the legend that banished Ganondorf. The hero that was his predecessor.
"I need to find him." Link says eyes shone both determine and excitement. "I need to find him!."
"Brother what are you talking about?" Aryll asked, pulling the hence of his blue tunic.
"Brother?" She nervously asks again. Her brother's series of unusual behavior is freaking the poor girl out.
"I'm great Aryll! So fucking great!" Link beams ."An adventure is waiting for me! Aryll! The hero of time is here! All fresh and blood!" Link says, all the thirst for adventure is coming back making almost tremble.
"The Hero of time?" Aryll til her head. "Isn't he die hundreds of years ago?"
"Disappeared! The myth says he disappeared not dead!" Link shouted, legs jumping in anticipation." He's here now! And I need to find him! To-"
Strike him down if he yearns for destruction.
Honors his wish if he desired for solitude.
Words of god ring in Link's ears, reminding him about his mission and duty of the world of great sea's hero. Link takes a deep breath for calming, he hopes it doesn't have to come down like the first part and not the latter either because he wants to be with the heroin of legends.
"Wanna see a trick?" Link smirk, a thing he does more after the time with the pirate's crews.
"Yes!"
Link grins and holds his left hand high and concentrates. The mysterious green Goddess has blessed him with all the tools he needs to find the missing older hero.
Bright Light light beaming out of his hand, from the triforce high into the dark sky before falling like a golden string. The brother and sitter and so are some of the residents who happen to be outside watching the miracle.
"No shit-!" Link almost laugh, almost. Because the other end of light land right on his island, right on the forest of fairy.
"He's here! Holy Rin's beefy! He on this fucking island!"
"The hero of time is here?" Aryll squeaked all excite. All her don't have melted away after the light show.
"To the forest! LET'S GO!" Link shouted. The light of the golden string is faded into the night but it already pings point the exact location. Oh god, what to say to the heroin? Should he wear the traditional hero's tunic? Where is his sword?!
The pair of siblings almost can't help themselves from to jump the stairs when another miracle happened.
The moon and stars started to move, accelerating at an alarming pace across the dark sky. Aryll fearful grasp into Link who could only watch as his magical conductor's baton mentally screaming to him how the natural rules of the world were being bent. Soon the sun was peeking out over the horizon, lighting the once night sky. It was so incredible and so horrifying, they were just watching the night being sped up unregarding the order of Earth. The Outset Island residents walking outside confusing and startling looking at newly Dawn.
Link fearful look up the forest on the mountain. If it does come down to it, he will have to fight a hero with suck tremendous power? How can he fight a warrior that can command the time itself? What else is up to his sleeves?
Link never feel afraid like this, even he was fighting Ganondorf. How the level of their power was shown so clearly. the boy's words ringing in Link's mind.
"Next time we meet I wouldn't be so nice."
Link was disheartened but the thrilling that running down his spine only fueling him to seek out the hero more. his bravery and determination have been proved to the Goddess. How he has pieces back the Triforce of Courage and make him it worthy wielder, he wasn't chosen by Destiny but he did it all the same.
In a way, when the hero of time turns night to day to test him. Then Link supposed the only appropriate replied to marching there with his head high, sword and shield by his side, and prove his predecessor that he is a worthy opponent, and his succestor.
