Legend of Zelda: The Broken Cycle, Book One: Lost Courage

Chapter Two

When I opened my eyes again, I groaned in pain. I tried to rise off the ground only to have trouble doing so. Looking around I saw why I was having trouble. I had arrived in my wyvern form. With careful movements I rose to my feet. My arms or now wings rested on the ground as I swung my elongated neck around. Seeing only trees and stones around me I looked down to see my appearance.

My scales were a rich purple with hints of red. Along my back, seeming to start at the base of my skull to the end of the membrane of my wings, was a webbed spine descended. Just before my shoulder blades the web split into two and they rejoined at the end. There was also webbing on the base as well as at its end. The end spread out like a fan. To me I was absolutely beautiful. I started moving around, my wings fanned out with each step.

When I broke through the tree line, I saw I was in an area on the Great Plateau. To my surprise, on my right was the entrance of the resurrection chamber. As I looked at its information on its functions and creation flooded my brain. Blinking the surprise information away I sat on my heels and tried to turn back human. As I took some deep breaths, I felt my body changing shape. Upon opening my eyes, I saw what once wyvern wings were now human hands. Luckly, it seems that upon transformation I had a default dress. Walking around a bit I came across some Hylan Solders. They appeared both shocked and alarmed at my sudden appearance.

"Easy, easy I mean no harm. I'm just a little lost." I told them, keeping my hands up where they could see them. While still cautious the leader of the group approached me holding a somewhat kind expression.

"Sorry madam, we had just received an oracle about the arrival of the Calamity. So, we are all a little on edge of people randomly appearing. Last we checked no one lived on these planes and yet you appeared." He explained with a small air of accusations. Understanding where he was coming from, I didn't take any insult.

"If I may ask how old the princess is currently?" I asked to see how much time there was till the calamity. He tilted his head before cautiously answering.

"The princess is currently fifteen, her birthday was only a few days ago. Everyone was there for the celebration." I nodded before sheepishly saying.

"Yea, sorry I tend to get engrossed into my work, I lost track of time, so I had to ask, I knew that when I started the princess's birthday was coming up." To my surprise all the guards immediately calmed down and became relaxed. Even the captain relaxed.

"Oh sorry, I know you Sheikahs can get really immersed into your works. Can I ask on what you were working with?" he asked, a curious look in his eyes. I pointed behind me at the resurrection chamber.

"I found this chamber and was looking around to see if I can understand how it works." The captain believed me and told one of his soldiers to report my findings to the head scientist sheikahs. While they were talking, I spotted a river and walked over to see my reflection. Once I saw my appearance, I realized why they were quick to believe my story. My human appearance was that of a Sheikah. I sighed in relief knowing I could blend in. I thought about trying to warn the king of the Calamity. But I quickly shot it down. If my world taught me anything it's that kings do not listen to reason. So, I instead chose to seek the aid of Purah and Robbie to save the champions. Knowing how the chamber works I hoped we could create smaller versions on the divine beasts for the champions.

While I may not have the ability to stop the calamity from arriving, but I could undermine its destruction. Returning to the soldiers, I asked the captain if he could take me to the other scientist. He agreed to my request and got onto his horse. Seeing him mount his horse I realized I had no means of transportation.

"Oh! It appears the horse I originally used has gone missing." I said with a stumped expression. He held his hand out to me to help me onto his horse while saying.
