"Link. It is time for you to awaken," came an old geezer's voice. I groaned and ignored the voice, refusing to awaken from my peaceful slumber. "Link. You need to wake up and save Hyrule now that you are old enough to wield the Master Sword."

Irritated, I opened my eyes and looked at the spacious blue hexagonal area around me. "Who are you and what do you want?" I demanded.

"Link. You must go and free the other sages, each locked within their respective temples," the geezer, with extremely large robes and the worst mustache ever, replied.

"You didn't answer my other question." I huffed.

"I am Rauru, the Sage of Light. Here, have this Medallion of Light. I, also, gave you new clothes while you were sleeping."

Raising a brow, I touched my new clothes and noticed that my ears felt strangely heavy. Reaching up, I felt the two small hoop earrings dangling from my earlobes. "Dude, you gave me piercings."

"Yeah, so?"

"You gave me piercings, without my consent. Just... where are we and how do I get the hell out?"

"You're in The Chamber of Sages."

"Ok? And how do I get out?"

"Through the door directly behind you."

As I turned around, I looked for a good five seconds to realize there was no door. "Quit lying. Where is it?"

"It's there, it just blends in really well with the walls."

As I walked over to the wall, lightly pushing on it, it caved slightly and popped out of its initial spot. "Good luck on your journey, Link." There was a light squeeze on my right buttcheek, but it was gone as quickly as it had happened.

A bright light surrounded me as I walked through the door then finding myself back in the Temple of Time. I looked around then examined the Master Sword in my left hand before placing it in its sheath. As I went to leave, I felt a presence behind me, making me stop in my tracks before turning around to find the owner of the voice.

"I've been waiting for you, Hero of Time," a young man greeted me from the side of the sword's pedestal. He wore skin tight clothing with a strange crest on the chest and his face was mostly covered.

"Who are you?" I defensively grabbed the hilt of my sword.

"I am Sheik, survivor of the Sheikah. I am here to help lead you in your quest." He introduced himself.

"Evil has plagued this land within the seven years you were asleep, but as I see you stand there with the legendary Master Sword in hand, I know light will pierce through the dark clouds upon this land."

I glanced down at the blade in my hand in silence before looking back up at him as he continued.

"There are five temples you must go to in order to awaken the five Sages whom the Sacred Realm calls for. One in a deep forest, one on a high mountain, one under a vast lake, one within the house of the dead, and one inside a goddess of the sand."

"Ok......? Where do I go first....?" I asked.

"The forest temple is where you should start. The sage there is a girl I'm sure you're familiar with. But equipped as you are now, it will be impossible to even enter. Head to Kakariko Village. There, you will find the item you need to help in your quest. I will stay here for now. Come back to see me when you're done there."

Sighing, since I clearly do not have a choice, I sheathed the Master Sword and turned my heels to leave with Navi in tow.

"Wow, Link! You look so much older and more mature, now!"
