Startling Mind Games
Posted: Thu Feb 02, 2006 12:38 pm
Blank Fireside is venturing through the vast land of Hyrule one sunny day, fully revitalized and feeling better than ever, for some unexplained reason. As he nears a large gathering of rocks, he suddenly gets down on one knee and starts shouting. He doubles over in pain and can be seen grasping his face and skull, as if a demon had found home in his mind.
When Blank had first arrived on the sandy shores of Tantari Desert, he had encountered an attack similar to this. He had had many attacks since, but only the first had spoken to him. He recalls the rasping voice, it sounded like a devil exposed to light. All it had said was "Tantari," and Blank had cared little about it since. This time, however, he hears the voice again.
Death awaits him on the wind,
In the land of Ganon's reign.
Unless he awakens and comes to find,
That he is Hylian, once again.
The poem comes to him in a sharp, murderous wail, and he feels his mind breaking down under the tone of the deep evils. Miraculously, the attack withers, and when it is finally ended, Blank stands, staggers to the tip of the rocky arrow, and pushes the rock aside, revealing a small cavern. He enters, and faints.

He awakens two days later and steps out into the rain, feeling terrible. But in his two day dream, he had been enlightened. He now knew... this was his homeland.
