TLOZ: The Oracle of Ages
Formerly know as: Chapter
of Time & Space
Time
Hopping!
Is it me.. or does Nintendo
seem to have this thing about parallel worlds and time travel in
Zelda games? Yup all ur old favorites return for another epic saga
of a Legend, maybe not as good as Oracle of Seasons but it is still
supreme in it's own right.
A unique idea, but with major
difficulties equals disappointment
and broken promises! The formal
"Tri"Force Series was cut down to only two games, instead
of three. The Chapter of Earth, and the Chapter of Time and Space or
The Oracle of Seasons and The Oracle of Ages. Both having storylines
and plots that mirror the other, but unique in it's own way. Both
games start with the Triforce taking Link to a new magical land,
full of surprises and excitement
STORYLINE
Link awoke one day to find himself deep in a strange forest. As he started
to walk through the woods, he heard cries for help coming from just up ahead
of him. Link hurried toward the voice, only to find a group of monsters
surrounding the woman who was screaming. When the monsters saw Link, they
immediately fled.
The woman who was being attacked was none other than Impa, nurse to
Hyrule's Princess Zelda. Impa said she had come to the forest to search for a
singer named Nayru.
"Can't you help me look?" Impas asked. Despite the strange look she gave
him, Link could not refuse her request. Together they found a large stone
with a Triforce on it. Naturally, Link moved the stone, but Impa wouldn't so
much as lay a hand on it.
As they traveled even deeper into the forest, they found a young woman
singing. Invited to sit by the group of animals that listened to the girl's
song, Link joined in the circle and let the beautiful song fill his ears and
penetrate his heart. This was surely Nayru, the singer Impa was searching
for. Just then, Impa erupted in a cackling laugh.
"Ah ha ha ha ha ha!"
A darkness surrounded Impa, and a frightening shadow lifted from her
body.
"Nayru! Oracle of Ages! I, Veran, Sorceress of Shadows, shall make you
my own!"
The shadow that called itself Veran began swooping about the forest
before flying straight into the body of the frightened singer. A blinding
light shone forth from Nayru's body.
When Link's eyes had grown used to the light, he realized that Nayru
looked very strange. Her face seemed veiled in shadow, and her bright smile
had vanished. A piercing, evil gaze had replaced it.
"Ha ha ha ha ha!"
"Now the power of the Oracle of Ages is mine! I can travel through time
at will! Now a ned age shall begin-an age of shadows!" And with that, Veran
and Nayru vanished.
Nayru was actually the Oracle of Ages who controlled time in this land of
Labrynna. When the oracle was kidnapped, the flow of time in Labrynna was
distorted, and strange things began to happen. Before vanishin, Veran said,
"When the past changes, so does the present." Her plan was to travel to the
past and gather power from the sorrows of the people of Labrynna so that she
could create her age of shadows.
Will Link be able to free Nayru from Veran's evil clutches? Such is the
quest that Link must now undertake.
The
Legend continues...
