• I walked away from the castle, and Hilien village. My first stop was the volcano villagen, where the first stone awaited, for the bravery stone.
    My mind was preoccupied with what Herald had told me, and the legend.
    "Nemer, you could have just told me the legend, you doof." I told that idiotic ferret.
    "Your desteny was to know that then, so I could not, especially not interfear with desteny."
    "Oh, sure. All I did was wonder what the hell everyone was talking about. But don't worry, I wont hold it against you." I let the sarcasm flow.
    "You will thank me someday." He mentioned.
    "Someday." I scoffed.
    I ignored that dirty furball, and focused on what I was going to have to do.
    "...And maybe if you would be stronger-" That voice was hard to drown out.
    "Shut up, shut up, shut up!" I yelled. " I get it, okay Nemer, your right, and I am not! Now stop before I whack you. Got it?"
    "Sure, sure." He muttered.
    I arrived to the volcano villagen, and it did not look that good. The clouds were a dark grey, surrounding the volcano, and smoke as thick as a tree came out of the volcano. The village was torn and messy. There were people there, though, and they looked terrified.
    I walked to the one who looked like the head of the place.
    "Excuse me?" I tapped his shoulder so he would turn around.
    "Yes?" A hoarse voice asked, as the man turned around.
    "Oh, it is time. She has come for it." He muttered.
    "I need the bravery stone. Prince Herald has told me it is here."
    "Yes, he tells no lie. But, it is inside the volcano, the deepest part of it. You must go get it to continue on, Samina."
    "Thank-you."
    "It is dangerous, watch out." He warned as I walked to the volcano.
    People stopped in their tracks to watch me pass. The path was big, and some little children pointed at me. Some whispered; ' It's her! The hero of souls!'
    My pointy ears twitched as I neared the volcano. There was a monster inside, and I could hear it. It sounded a little like a griffon, but I couldn't be sure, given that I had never seen one. I stepped into the cave of the volcano.
    "Samina, are you sure about this? This is a griffon you are fighting, you know." Nemer sounded scared, which amused me.
    "Its the only way. I swore I would stop the force that was coming."
    "You also swore that you wouldn't die. But the griffon's weak spot, is his wing. Strike the left wing, and then slice him."
    "Okay."
    A loud screach eurrupted from the end of the cave. The griffon charged to me, claws foward.
    "Use the left! That is his weaker side!" Nemer shouted.
    I ran to the left, and pulled out my sword and sheild.I lunged for the left wing, and he dodged it by a second.
    "Damnit!" I yelled. I must win. To stop the force. To save Hilien. To save the castle. To save my forest, and my friends. I thought, and lunged once more to the wing.
    My sword sliced right through, and a cry of pain shot from the griffon's beak. I aimed at the throat, and sliced it. His scream was cut short, and the great creature fell to the ground.
    Suddenly, the ground shook, trembled, and rocks fell off the top of the cave.
    "The volcano is going to blow! Run Samina!" Nemer yelled.
    "Wait! The stone!"
    I looked around frantically, and spotted a shining round stone with a silver writing on it. It read strength on the stone. I ran to the cave's mouth, and lunged for the exit of this village. The villagers cheered, and the head man said;
    "Run, Samina! Fufill your desteny! Save the world, brave hero of souls!"
