Taking new muse out for a spin. Open to any game ideas.

[Have a bitty Link looking around all confused. He really wants to know what this place is and where is everyone else.]

Link!

[Run run TACKLE!]

[warriorofwinds]

[Since Link doesn't see Tetra coming, he's startled by the tackle. It wears off when he realizes who this is.]

Tetra!

[Have a hug back.]

[desert_fate]

Wow it's kind of weird seeing someone that looks like me when I was a kid.

/slides towerofanimus into game suggestions

[stop_calling_me_zelda]

'hoy kid!

[Mussing his hair and grinning.]

Jus' the person I wanted to see!

[great_king_of_evil]

[ ... Probably not who Link was looking for.

And less so who the Evil King wanted to see. Have the most annoyed and disdainful glare. ]

I don't know. I don't think Horror games are my thing.

[warriorofwinds]

[Link frowns at the hair mussing but is nontheless glad to see Tetra.]

Nice to see you too.

[warriorofwinds]

[And Link freezes at the sight of himself.]

Who are you?

[warriorofwinds]

[Likewise. The moment he sees Ganondorf, he utters a small growl and pulls out the (mini) Master Sword, glaring daggers at Ganon. Though he makes no moves to attack]

Aww dang, because Tetra really misses her buddy

[stop_calling_me_zelda]

Where you been? I woulda thought this place would be filled with heroes like you.

[Specifically the Wind Waker era Link. Because obviously he's the best Link.]

Well, I might. I dunno

[warriorofwinds]

What is this place?

[great_king_of_evil]

You've got guts, but you would do better to lower your sword kid.

[ The display of reckless courage gets him to chuckle but he shake his head. ]

If you were to fight me you would run to your death, in quite a pathetic manner should I add, and I do not have the intention of killing you. Not today at least.

[desert_fate]

Link, though I guess we share that name.

I'm your ancestor from another timeline apparently. I guess the important part is I'm a hero like you.

[warriorofwinds]

Wow. That's amazing. So what's it like in your timeline?

[warriorofwinds]

I don't trust you.

Honestly I'm not sure how no one else has really went in-depth with this idea before xD

[desert_fate]

Well I can't tell you how it would affect my timeline's version of you but I was raised by the Gerudo rather than the Great Deku Tree. For some reason my mother thought to go to a tribe of women to ask for their help.

There were already tensions between them and their leader, Ganon. So it just took some convincing and her words to get them to take me in.

So I was raised as a thief essentially. No idea how my adventure changed everything else.

A Gerudo Link, who'd thunk it?

[warriorofwinds]

That's really cool.

Seems to make sense she could of went to ask anyone with the same level of danger involved

[desert_fate]

Thanks kid. I guess you've never seen a desert in your homeland, have you?

True.

[warriorofwinds]

I was born on an island.

[desert_fate]

Yeah that's what I gathered and I guess there are no desert islands. That wouldn't make a lot of sense.

We'd definitely welcome you if you ever do

[stop_calling_me_zelda]

Remember those stories about the Hero of Time and how he slept in the Sacred Realm for seven years? This is kinda like it except it's not the Sacred Realm, we ain't asleep and people from all kinds of worlds and times are here.

[So basically: Not like the Sacred Realm at all.]

I'll keep it in mind.

[warriorofwinds]

I noticed. [He just talked to a gerudo version of himself.]

[warriorofwinds]

So what's it like in the desert?

[desert_fate]

There is very little water, there's sand as far as the eye can see. It's very hot during the days and very cold during the nights.

[warriorofwinds]

Doesn't sound like a nice place.

[curse_of_power]

[LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM.]

[warriorofwinds]

[Another Ganon?! Seriously?!]

How many of you are there?

[curse_of_power]

Just one.

[There's the slightest twitch of a smirk.]

However, death has no meaning, no sting. We are simply reborn to once more wreak havoc on your world.

[warriorofwinds]

Only to be beaten again.

[curse_of_power]

In a temporal sense, yes. However, my purpose is fulfilled with each turning of the wheel. I exist only to cause misery for you and your line.

[warriorofwinds]

That sounds sad, to be forced to do evil.

[curse_of_power]

[Cue a confused face. Usually he's met with contempt and hatred when told of his purpose. But to be pitied? And by him!? That's just infuriating.]

I am the manifestation of an immortal hatred. Rage, power, and hatred run in my veins. I am a GOD OF DESTRUCTION!

[He growls as his form distorts and stretches into his more pig-like form.]

I need no pity from the likes of you.

[warriorofwinds]

[Link backs away from the transformed Ganon, Master sword in hand. But makes no moves to attack.]

But still, you never had a choice. And no one should be forced to be evil.

[And all of what he says is genuine. Sorry Ganon. You may be made of hate, but you're dealing with someone who's practically incapable of hate. Even though one of your incarnations kidnapped his sister and nearly killed him and his friends, he could never hate you or anyone.]

[curse_of_power]

[Ganon summons his trident and stabs at Link.]

I was not forced into anything, you insignificant whelp! I am the one that will transcend the gods themselves!

[And knowing that in itself infuriates him even more. Dare he say the fact that Link couldn't hate makes Ganon hate him even more.]

[warriorofwinds]

Demise's curse is the reason you're this way. You were destined to be the bad guy from birth. If that's not being forced into something I dunno what is.

[He knows it's pointless trying to reason with him, but maybe, just maybe, it might make Ganon stop and think for a moment.]

[curse_of_power]

I am more than just a curse! I am more than Demise, more than the Goddess, more than anything!

I will surpass the Gods of old and bring Hyrule to its knees!

[warriorofwinds]

Is that what you want, or what Demise wants?

[curse_of_power]

[Ganon roars, shifting slowly until he assumes his more bestial form.]

What a dead demon lord wants is of no consequence!

[warriorofwinds]

Funny. Because it seems to me that you're doing the exact thing Demise was trying to do.
