Adventure Journal Entry #152
I woke up in cold sweat today. I had this nightmare I can’t tell no one about. Not Midna, not Princess Zelda, not even Illia. I don’t want them to worry about me. I don’t want them to doubt me.
In my nightmare, I was facing Ganon in a fight. It was just me and him... and the never ending darkness that surrounded us. The only sounds came from our swords and our voices. But his voice sounded louder than anything else. The words he told me were like venom; poisoning my mind.
He told me my heart wasn’t pure; that it was clouded by darkness. He asked me to join his side and throw Hyrule into an abyss of despair. And the most horrible part? It was that I agreed with him.
I agreed that my heart was clouded, that I wasn’t like my predecessors. I wasn’t as noble and pure as Time was. He accepted his role as Hero whereas I didn’t want it at first. I was the Hero that stood on the verge of succumbing to the darkness. Yet, I didn’t want to throw Hyrule into an era of chaos. Because I knew that was the wrong path.
However, the right path didn’t feel right to me. And he knew. He knew and used that against me. His words continued to poison my mind. I told myself “Don’t give in!” over and over again. But my hand reached out to him. It was like my body was moving on it’s own! I didn’t want to join his side!
The moment I grabbed his hand, everything went black and a vision of Hyrule Castle burning was the last thing I remembered.
It was then I woke up, thankfully not waking up Midna and only spooking Epona. However, I cannot tell her. I cannot tell anybody.
The only fear I have, is that my nightmare will become a reality. That Ganon will succeed into persuading me into joining his side. I’m so frightened of that day to come. But...
I have to fight him, don’t I?
