Chapter 1

The sun beamed down Link's face while a cool breeze waved over his skin. It was a little past noon in Hyule fields. Link was taking a lazy week off from his quest a few weeks ago. He rested his head on a root of a tree while his sword and shield lay beside him. Link stopped by the castle town market this morning to buy some previsions. Even though the twilight was banished from the land, no one can be too careful. As he did so, he watched humans and hyrulians alike buy and sell goods on the market streets. Telling Link apart from the two was no hard task. All was needed was to look at his ears. His elf-like appearance distinguished him as a hyrulian, since humans have rounded ears. But he was different for he wore a green tunic and cap which everyone knew as the Hero of Light.

As he rested, he listened to the birds chirping in the trees while the leaves rustled in the wind. He was about to fall asleep when something didn't seem right, the birds stopped chirping. Knowing all too well what this means opened his eyes, strapped his sword to his back and readied his shied, waiting.

He saw motion to his right, taking his position, waiting for an attack. A turquoise dragon, twice his size, came into view walking slowly out in the open. As soon as Link saw it was a dragon, he took his sword with it singing as it came out of its sheath.

"I did not come to fight." said the turquoise dragon comely.

"Then why are you here?" Link demanded.

"Another realm needs your help."

"How do you know this and why me?"

"Because I come from that realm and you are the one chosen to help the Dragon Realm."

"Wait...what? Dragon Realm?" Link lowered his shield and sword, "Can't you find another to do it?"

"We already have two, but they need another to aid them in their struggle to defend the Dragon Realm."

Link thought about it for a second 'Hyrule is at peace again, and there is nothing else left that needs me,' "Alright, I'll come.' He said as he was putting his sword and shield back on place on his back. "Who are the two others?"

"A purple dragon named Spyro and a black dragoness named Cynder. Now come with me."

"Wait! What's your name?"

"You may call me the Chronicler."

And with that they both vanished in a blinding light.
