Headmaster Ryze turned sharply, his eyes narrowing as he spotted a robed figure approaching from the misty edge of Longriver Valley.
He frowned. The man's presence immediately struck him as unnatural.
"Where's Link?" Ryze demanded coldly.
The black-robed figure chuckled and replied smugly,
"Link? If you want to know what happened to him, then you'd better kneel firs—"
Before the man could finish his sentence, a blinding flash of energy split the air.
Ryze's sword had already moved.
The impostor's body crumpled to the ground—cleanly severed at the waist.
Damn. Was Ryze always this fast?
Link's consciousness only made it to that moment before everything went black.
When he came to again, a new talent panel hovered in his vision.
