Forward: It was not until I finished "Resurrection of Evil that I realized I had the making of a classic trilogy on my hands. This story takes place ten years after the death of Link, Hero of Time, and offers some insight into the minds of all characters involved. It even explains why the mighty warrior was knocked off so easily. In other words, where Book I was mysterious and strange, Book II is open and explains both itself and Book I. However, this is also a dark undertone to it. Signs that life in Hyrule wasn't always the carefree society that we know and love. It is my hope that this story is enjoyed and becomes a Zelda fan-fiction classic. Please enjoy this work, "Downfall of Legends: Ghost of the Past." I know I've enjoyed writing it.

Prolouge:

In the distant city of Artronnis stood a castle. And in that city stood a man. Ruler of Artronnis, the long-forgotten suburb of the Kingdom of Hyrule. Long-forgotten to the Hyrulians that is. The Artronnens had never forgotten. Five hundred years ago they were banished from their home called Hyrule. Banished to the Castanerean Deserts. Over time, even the Castanerean Deserts were forgotten by the Hyrulians as they became more fearful of the outside world. And they had good reason. For now, five hundred years later, that man, standing in a castile, which stood in the distant city of Artronnis was plotting revenge for his people.
