Deceitful Lies!, Season's Oracle

Season's Oracle

Ch.11

By: Cutegirlmayra1 (I really need to pop these things out, I HAVE to get to the end. I'll try speeding things up, but even then, I should just combined pillar challenges huh? If so, let me know if that's a good idea T-T warning, it would be a lot of reading, but what has this whole thing been then? Lol)

Link entered a strange ruin temple again, a shrine that was decorated in the destructive nation's written wording. As Link slowly approached in, he took out a potion and quickly drank some of it. The beast he had fought just to get here were hard enough, but what would this creature be? As he made his way to through the temple, it led to an out door area where a platform stood in the center in front of a large tree with a wide opening. The minute Link stood in the center of the platform, he heard the same tune he had heard in the Pillar of Envy's chamber...

Come in~ Come in~ For within~ you will find your untimely doom~

It was slightly different this time, but then he felt the earth shake, and the tree's mouth break and be torn from the inside. Something was breaking the tree from the inside, and Link's mind swarmed with thoughts of the Great Deku tree.

"Who, who I dare saaay? Enters my forest, where all is a lie?" A long, wide, and huge Centipede crawled out of the mouth of the tree, but it's face was large and flat surface, as if someone had cut off his original head and it had replaced it with a white mask with glowing black eyes.

"I am Link, who are you?" Asked Link, looking at the odd centipede.

"Ohhhh~ Seems we have a guest who seeks my truths." The mask spun around, and then the Centipede moved in closer above Link, as if hovering over him. It's legs were a repeating pattern of Swordish legs, and then a wing. It's whole body must of still been in the tree, but Link couldn't help but think this all looked a little to much like his maskful adventures of the past. "Will ye be wise enough to seeeee?"

"See what?" Link was used to creepy, but the creatures voice was definitely more creepy then it's body.

"The truth within the lies." The mask had no mouth, but suddenly a smile faded into itself.

"There is no truth in lies." Spoke Link, holding his sword to his side, just in case.

"Ah, says one who doesn't even remember his own." The Masked Centipede moved around Link in a large circle, only to move it's massive, cut off surface with it's creepy mask close to Link's being. "Tell me, whom do ye serve?"

"What?" Link looked confused. "I serve-"

"Hold your words, let me explainnnnn." The Masked Centipede looked him dead in the eye. "Do ye serve Hylia? Or Zelda?"

"...Who...Who is Hy-"

"Hylia, the one who gave you the powers you are now starting to notice live within you. Or perhaps Zelda? The one who leads you on your destinies time and time again, aiding you with sacred power passed down from her mothers before her." The Masked Centipede moved around in a circle again, as if trapping Link in it's tight arena. "For if you choose Hylia, you will be turning away from the mortals you so love. If you choose Zelda, you will be turning to the Immortals who have caused all this suffering in the first place. So, What is the lie? Who do ye serve? For both have lied to you through each adventure you take in their nameeee."

Link couldn't understand the Centipede's words, but the spirits inside of him seemed to understand.

"Hylia...and Zelda... are the same right?" spoke a voice that sounded timid at speaking this.
