//------------------------------// // Summoned by Zelda // Story: Legend of Zelda: Equestria // by Robert Emerald Fountain //------------------------------// One quiet evening in Ordon Village... Link had just turned Epona over to Ilia so she could be washed after helping out on the ranch. He had just climbed the ladder to his front door when he heard someone call his name. "Mr. Link!" Link turned around. It was the postman. Link climbed down to talk. "Good evening, what brings you to my hometown," he asked the postman. "I have a scroll for you from Princess Zelda herself. She says it's an emergency," the postman replied as he pulled out a scroll with a royal seal before leaving to deliver other mail. Link took the scroll and broke Zelda's seal. He was startled when he read the message. "Link, I need you to come to the castle as fast as you can. Bring Epona and all of the weapons and armor you had collected from when you lifted the twilight away from Hyrule. I have an urgent mission for you. Please hurry. Signed, Princess Zelda." Link was shocked to receive a message like this on such short notice, but without hesitating, he changed clothes. First he put on a white shirt and put his chain mail over it, and then put on long pants and wool socks. He then put on his green tunic and boots. After putting on his hat, belts, and gloves, he grabbed his Hylian Shield and his horse whistle that Ilia made for Epona. He hurried to Ordon Ranch to tell Fado that he had been summoned by the princess. He then went back to his house and grabbed his tools. These included his Gale Boomerang, Iron Boots, bow and arrows, bombs, double clawshots, spinner, and his ball and chain. He also grabbed his fishing rod in case he wanted to catch fish for food. He then grabbed the bottles he had collected from his last adventure. They were still filled with bee larvae for fishing, potions, lantern oil, captured fairies, and saved soup. After grabbing his last bottle, he saw it was empty and filled it with some of the soup he had just made with the recipe that he got from Yeto at Snowpeak. He then grabbed his Zora Armor and his Magic Armor before heading outside and going to get Epona.
