Before the ascendancy of the one known as the Hero of Time, the lands knew nothing but war. The goddesses Din, Farore, and Nayru, in their creation of the world did not foresee the eternal strife that would occur between the races. Or perhaps they did. Nevertheless, eventually the warring lands were brought to heel by an ambitious leader named Gustav the Uniter. Thus came to be born the land of Hyrule.

Callously, Ganondorf sent his minions in a meat-grinder against the Kakariko, Gerudo warriors testing the defenses before he deployed his heavier infantry. Nevertheless, the archery of the Kakariko villagers and the bombs of the Gorons kept them at bay... (to be continued)
