Ganondorf approached the doors of the mayor of Kakariko Village. The citizens were placed under the watchful eye of a small regiment of silver moblins, more than enough to keep them in line. Following behind the Demon King was Sir Ugly the Revolting.

"Shouldn't we let this go, sire?" Sir Ugly the Revolting asked. "The village is practically ours already. We can just continue with the conquest as planned."

"I'm not letting this go, Sir Ugly the Revolting," Ganondorf said. "I was promised a fight with a powerful warrior, and I sure as hell am getting one!"

"But sir, won't this derail our invasion plan and allow the enemy to better prepare themselves?"

"Good!" Ganondorf said. "Maybe then the rest of this conquest won't be as disappointing!"

The two arrived at the doorstep. Ganondorf wasted no time grabbing the doors by the knobs and tearing them off their hinges. He flung them over his shoulder, where they shattered into bits on a poor Moblin's head. The moblin fell face first into the dirt, silently crying in pain.

"Come out, mayor!" Ganondorf shouted, stepping into the square entry room.

"Wait, don't come up here!" a voice screamed from upstairs.

Ganondorf ignored their plea, and started rushing upstairs in a furious charge, roaring like a feral animal. Sir Ugly the Revolting started admiring the paintings of nature on the walls.

"You can't hide from me!" Ganondorf bellowed.

A door upstairs tore open.

"Ah!"

"Ah!"

There was total silence for a few moments. Then, Sir Ugly the Revolting witnessed the Demon King shuffling down the stairs with wide eyes.

"What happened, sir?"

"He wasn't wearing clothes," Ganondorf said.

"Oh my gods, sir," Sir Ugly the Revolting said. "Just...completely naked?"

"Yep."

"Oh man, that's awkward."

"Very awkward," Ganondorf agreed.

"Alright, alright," the mayor called from upstairs. "Just, stay out for a bit. I'm almost dressed."

Ganondorf and Sir Ugly the Revolting took a few steps back and waited a bit. Eventually, the sound of footsteps on the stairs started to draw closer and closer, until the mayor himself came into sight. He was a short, portly man wearing a red suit and a Mask of Truth. His large collar made his head look tiny in comparison to the rest of him.

"Mayor Kohga, at your service," Kohga said. "Now what's so damn important that you had to interrupt my nap!? And who are you?" He leaned to the side. "And what happened to my doors?"

"The Demon King," Ganondorf said.

"Demise!?" Kohga yelled.

"No."

"Malladus!?"

"Who?"

"You might want to be more specific, then," Kohga said. "Sorry, those are the only Demon Kings I can think of."

"I am Demon King Ganondorf."

"Oh," Kohga said. "Never heard of you." He turned to the bokoblin. "And you are?"
