Hyrule Chronicles: The Rise of Ganon [2024 Remaster] ✅

Chapter V

Chapter 5: The Spooky Cave

The group had reached Zonai Ruins in Faron. They needed to get to Harker Lake, for that is where the Lush Village is. Not much is known about the Zonai, only that they were a magical civilisation. The other thing was they were traitors to the throne when the first King and Queen of Hyrule were crowned. Rumour has it that the Zonai were the people who created Calamity Ganon. Only a few of the Zonai buildings and temples are left, especially after the Calamity hit. The Calamity destroyed half of the building and temples.

"Let's set up camp here," Link said.

The two had dinner over the campfire.

"Excited to see Florence?" Zelda asked.

Link remembered that Florence had offered some assistance during his travels. She was a kind and generous woman, with a big heart.

"Yes!" Link said.

"I've never met her before," Zelda said. Florence wasn't around when the Calamity first struck. "Is she nice?"

"Very!" Link replied.

Zelda felt a wave of relief wash over her, knowing that she was dealing with a nice person.

"Well, I'm off to bed, goodnight Linky!" Zelda said, cheekily.

"Hey! Goodnight," Link replied.

As Link stood up a wave of nausea hit him. He ran over to a bush and threw up. On an empty stomach, he went to bed.

"Good morning!" Zelda said, shaking Link.

As Link got up he felt worse than he did last night.

"Link?" Zelda asked, seeing the look on Link's face.

"I'm fine," he said.

Travelling on horses was nice, or at least Zelda thought so. However with Link's condition he wasn't enjoying it. Suddenly Link felt his head spinning, and then everything went black.

Zelda's Point of View

Link fell off his horse and went face first on the ground, I tried calling his name, but he didn't answer.

"HELP!!!" I screamed.

I heard voices in the distance, so I kept screaming. Eventually a young woman came over, followed by an old man. The woman was wearing a tiara.

"Hello, I'm Florence, and this is my personal knight Obi-Wan," Florence said with a smile on her face.

She really did seem like a nice woman. Florence's smile turned into a frown when she saw Link.

"Link?" She asked. Florence put on a thinking face. "So if this girl is travelling with Link...no it can't be...she certainly looks like her...but anyone could look like her...the Royal Crest!...That means...your Princess Zelda?!" She asked, both astonished and confused.
