Before The Legends...

"Harkinian dear, what's happened now?" Alina asked the king as he sat down to a cold cup of tea.
    "The Gerudo are advancing towards Rauru Village. I said to send out new men, but now I'm not so sure. Sending all of them out when you know they'll be slaughtered is like personally pulling the chain on the guillotine for every one of them. Now I just feel so rotten, and I don't know what to do!" The king sighed heavily. Alina put her hand on his shoulder, and murmured;
    "You did what you thought was right, and that's all you need to do. I think we'll beat this war yet, just as long as we don't surrender. Oooohhh!" She gasped in pain.
    "Alina! Are you OK?" Harkinian was frightened for his frail wife.
    "I'm OK. Just the baby kicked is all." The grimace faded, and an expression of tenderness washed over it. "Impa says it will probably be a boy. I've thought of a name."
    "What?"
    " Trevor." She patted her stomach affectionately. King Harkinian chucked, forgetting the war completely.
