"Given the choice between life and death, I have to make each moment matter. Only one person may hear the truth of those seven war-torn years and the truth of the Princess' ways, but even just a spark can start a flame that will burn Hyrule to the ground.

“I am the Hero of Time and I am the savior of Hyrule, but no one can save me now. Now, I can only plant a seed - a spark of hope really, and pray that spark turns into a wildfire. I only have two hours until I am sent to the gallows by the Princess it was my duty to save. I am supposed to be a sign of her power, but I will be no one's puppet.

“My name is Annabella, and this is my story."

Since the beginning of time the land of Hyrule has been at war. Brave soldiers from all four races have fallen to each other’s blades for centuries and innocent citizen’s blood stains the ground. All they have is their faith to the goddesses, but sometimes – as history has shown time and time again – faith and hope is all you need.

Each time hope was dwindling they prayed for a hero to save them and each time the goddesses granted them not one, but three to join together and save the world; one who was filled with courage to fight the evil, one who was filled with wisdom to protect the people, and one who was filled with power to aide them. Each is chosen by a goddess to fulfill their duty and destiny and so far each chosen person has accepted and done their duty perfectly.

Finally, after years of civil war with the aide of the last hero, Thereo, a new King has risen to power. Peace falls over the land even after Thereo’s death. All is well until a new evil begins to stir deep within the land. Ganondorf, the King of Thieves, is looking to spill the King’s blood and find an ancient artifact said to give the power of the gods to whoever finds it.

When the world needs a Hero, the goddesses again give them one. The fact that the Hero is a ten year old girl shouldn’t matter.

Annabella, an outcast living in a village deep within the woods, is sent to save a world she never even knew existed from falling into the tyrant’s hands. With the help of a Princess and friends along the way she is determined to protect this new land with all of her might.

But is it already too late?
