“Link how are you doing this morning?” Princess Zietah asked, patting a spot on her bed. Link walked over to her and sat down.
“I guess I’m okay. How about you?”
“I’m great!” She stared into his deep blue eyes.
“That’s good…” He answered moving his eyes away from hers, and stared at his feet. She was still looking at him.
“Link, I need to tell you something…” Princess Zietah said, sliding her hand on Links. Her eyes sparkled in the morning sun.
Link avoided her gazed, and examined the room. The bed the was draped in velvet and was covered in the finest silk in Hyrule. There were many small objects on shelves all around the room, many, Link wasn’t sure of. Rich paintings covered the stone walls. There were two windows in the room; they were on either side of the canopy bed. Everything was so rich and beautiful.
“Link?” The princess asked as she followed his avoiding gaze.
“Yes princess?”
“Link. I need to tell you this before my heart bursts. I have fallen deeply in love with you!”
“W-what?” Link asked, confused. He finally turned his eyes from a beautiful painting and stared at her.
“Link, I want to be with you. Please except this proposal, I wish to marry you.” Link stared open mouthed at her.
“Uh, Princess, I barely know you. I might need sometime to think about this. Please excuse me.” Link made a move to get up, but Princess Zietah grabbed his hand, and pulled him close to her. Her bright green eyes bore into him. Her face neared his, and she closed her eyes and planted a soft kiss upon his lips. He pulled away, looking at her, slightly shocked, “Princess, I really have to go.”
“Farewell Link!” She called a little to over dramatically as he dashed to the door and left her. She looked please with herself as she lay back down on her bed, ginning.

“Hey, have any of you seen Master Dieagoh?” Link asked as her came upon some Zoras swimming in the Water Room.
“Of course, he’s in the sparing room; he’s practicing with his weapons if you want to join him.”
“Thanks!” Link went on the sparing room looking for Dieagoh. He walked in on his friend and a Zora fighting. The Zoras aren’t great fighters, but in this case, it wasn’t true. The was no other way to say it, Dieagoh was getting his ass kicked. It didn’t look like harmless practice; it looked like a duel to the death! Link pulled out his bow and arrow and shot at the exact time the Zora swung his sword for a fatal blow. The arrow wised through the air and smashed into the sword with so much force it knocked out of the Zoras hands.
“What the hell?” The Zora yelled, his anger rising. He looked over at Link, “couldn’t you tell we were in battle? You freak! You’ll pay for this, consider that a threat!” At that, he walked off, fuming.

“Link! Man, I am so glad you are here! Dude, this guy is fucking crazy! I was just practicing around, and he comes walking up to me like he’s all big and bad and freaking challenges me to a duel to the death! If you wouldn’t have come then I woulda died!”
“That’s messed up! Who was that guy anyway?” Link asked as he hooked his bow onto his back.
“I dunno, but ima tell you this, I will find out who that dude was. And when I do, I ain’t holding back.”
“Yeah… hey, I gotta tell you what Princess Zietah just confessed to me. We gotta go some where privet, I don’t feel right talking about it in front of all these people,” he said as he glanced over the fighters.
“Sure, whatever you want! You saved my life!” They walked out of the practice area, and searched for some place privet, but didn’t find one.
“Think maybe we should just go back to our room? That’s the most privet place that I know of at this moment,” Dieagoh asked, looking over at Link. He agreed and the set off for the guest quarters. “So what exactly do you wanna tell me? Is it bad, good?”
“Um, it depends on your definition of ‘bad’ and ‘good’ just wait, you’ll find out. I’m still trying to think up a way to tell you this.” Link answered, nervously. They entered their room, and closed the door. Link sat down and took a deep breath. “Okay, see, I was called to the royal chambers this morning-”
“I know I was there at the time!”
“Okay! As I was saying, I was called down to the royal chambers. Princess Zietah asked me into her room. And, well… she… uhh. She confessed to me-”
“On with it Link!”
“I am! She confessed that she loved me, okay!” Link screamed at Dieagoh, his anger rising at his repeated interrupting.
“Whoa buddy! Do you know what that means? If you get married to her, then you can become the King of the Zoras!”
“No way!” Link said his voice considerably calmer.
“You needa use your head more-”
“What was that?” Both of them looked towards the door. “Let’s go check it out.”
They walked out of their room and headed toward the rumbling noises. When they arrived they saw an entire fleet of soldiers holding flags. The flag had a large nine pointed star with a circle around it, the star was yellow. The back round was plain black, that was the flag of the most powerful country. The country was named Deablo-Eineesh.
*There must be a member of the royal family here,* Link and Dieagoh thought at the same time. They headed after the solders, hoping to get a glimpse of who it was, or catch a few words. They followed the fleet all the way to the hallway which ended in the Kings chamber. The doors opened, someone entered but the both of them couldn’t see who it was over the fleet of soldiers. Many Zoras, and some hylians who were guests waited like Link and Dieagoh did. They probably wanted the same think the both of them wanted, to know what was going on.
They waited for what felt like hours, then, the doors opened and someone came out. Link, Dieagoh, and everyone held their breath. Who was the mysterious person from Deablo-Eineesh?
