[great_king_of_evil]

Characters: Ganondorf and you
Setting: Everywhere in the tower, Cathedral, Art Gallery and Music Floor
Format: Starting with Prose, but will match you
Summary: Ganondorf takes advantages of the situation to spread his roots throughout the Tower, Mafia style. He is also preparing his attempt to take over the Tower's Control Room (see here for more information). In this post, Ganondorf will either:
a) Try to socialize with the tower's people in order to have more relations. He'll be nicer than usual and more prone to speak.
b) Offer his service to those who are in need (there will be a list of offered service at the end of the post if you wish to pick one) without asking anything in return. Spoiler: it's a trap.
c) Try and recruit people into working for him.
d) Try and manipulate some derps strong young people into joining SS Link's group who will attempt to naively bravely break into the pods.
Warning: The name Ganondorf is a warning in itself. Put in the header if you have any preferences for how it shall go.


Default (Everywhere in the Tower)
Ganondorf was purposefully seeking to see and speak with people for once- Both those he met before and those he didn't meet- A radical change from his previous behavior to say the least. As a matter of fact, he needed more relations to have his plans progress and he needed to cultivate his image of a benevolent man whose only crime had been to try and protect his people from a selfish royal family and cruel Gods. Basically, Zelda and the Links were the bad guys, not him. Even though he would say it with more subtlety and he wouldn't word it like that…

Nevertheless he remained discreet about his intention to meet people; he was lurking around the places most people were at, observing what they were doing, seeing what it is they needed most in those dark times for the towers. If they needed food, protection, someone killed- Or even light, it was no problem for him. He most likely could make their desire into a reality. Sparing food and all kind of things those last few months had finally paid up.

So no matter where you are in the tower, odds are that you'll pass by Ganondorf. He's not stupid enough to just stop and start speaking with you out of the blue, but if he sees an occasion to start a discussion he will.

 Cathedral (13th Floor)
The only floor throughout the entire tower that wasn't disabled! It was quite intriguing as far as Ganondorf was concerned. And it was the very floor where he had organized the Evil Meeting. It was probably nothing but a mere coincidence, yet it couldn't hurt to look and see if there was something of interest in this room.

If you happen to pass by at this time, you'll find Ganondorf studying the room- Trying to find where the power may come from and why in this room and not another room.

 Art Gallery
It was dark, but Ganondorf had with him a small lantern. He could have used his own powers and in fact it was more or less the case as this lantern came from a Poe (ghost-like creature) he had created. He looked at the paintings describing him and his life-

The most annoying thing probably was that all of those paintings more or less made him out for a purely evil and sadistic being. Note, he was proud of being evil, even though he wasn't really sadistic. But that wasn't the problem. It was the image it gave of him to those people. Well, at least they knew not to mess with him, but it would have been a good idea to have, for once, a painting describing the painful and hard moments of his life.

And even when a painting was successful, the great king of evil had a problem with it. This one for example didn't look too bad, but what with the nose? As a matter of fact, every painting so far had that obsession to over exaggerate his nose. Bah. Whatever.

The last painting he spotted shocked him though. It took him five minute to fully realize this was one of his possible futures. By the time anyone would step onto that floor, this painting would be burning. At least, now he knew. Oh, and a painting about the Dark World was burning as well. Two birds with one stone.


 Music Floor (28th Floor)
Because even a Great Demon King of Evil could appreciate music- Would you be to venture on the music floor you'd most likely find Ganondorf playing Organ as he so often did, both to kill time and help focus on the problems at hand. This time he was playing was the ancestral song of the Gerudo.

Obviously, from time to time he also played his very own theme song. And as per usual, the closer someone walked to the organ, the more intense the theme was getting.


 List of service offered by Ganondorf
What he can offer:
- Food and Water. Mostly, those bars from May that Ganondorf spared. They're a bit old but still eatable and much better than nothing.
- Murder. Got someone you want to see dead? Ganondorf or one of his minions can take care of it.
- Threats. Someone in this tower threatened you and your friends or simply doesn't show you enough respect? Ganondorf can change that. He can make sure whoever harmed or plan to harm you will never think about it again.
- Flash Lights. He has three to give away- If ever you need one…
- Protection. There are many monsters roaming the tower this month. Ganondorf can make sure none ever bother you.
- Personal Guard. His shadow has been divided into ten shadows, every one of the ten looking like a Gerudo Warrior. The Great King of Evil can assign one of them to your personal protection- They're powerful enough and if ever they are defeated, the true Phantom Ganon would be summoned immediately.

What he asks in return:
- Your respect. That's right, nothing else. See the Godfather? Same thing. He won't ask you anything, but some day, and that day may never come, he may ask you a service. Being in his debts is all Ganondorf needs today.
- Your services. Optionally, you may decide to work for Ganondorf. Mostly, the job will be about fulfilling the requests above and going to look for the food, etc in his name.

Once I return home, I will experience nothing. And at the same time, everything. Regardless of dividing timelines, I am the Master Sword. The Master Sword is me.

[Fi stares at the painting for a moment.]

An ocean. Is Young Master Link not from the ocean?

[great_king_of_evil]

If drowning yourself in senseless notion pleases you...

[ Whatever, he's not going to dissuade her. ]

They call it the Great Sea. Hyrule sleeps in its depths.

[ur_batteries_are_dying]

And what determines whether it is senseless or not?

[Nope, he won't.]

I am familiar with neither. I am familiar with the Lanayru Sand Sea, however, which once once the greatest known sea on the Surface.

[great_king_of_evil]

It's quite simple. If the timeline divided, so did the Master Swords. And so did you. If there were two, three or more Master Swords, you would only be one of them and not all of them at once.

[ Sorry he had to try. ]

The Great Sea has nothing to do with a Sea Sand. It is the fate the Goddesses have chosen for Hyrule, and what I have been trying to reverse.

[ur_batteries_are_dying]

That would mean that I divided with them, as you said. I am still part of them, as I was meant to be.

[That try sucked.]

What right would you have to reverse the choice of the Old Ones?

[great_king_of_evil]

But those part of them are alternate, different version of you.

[ It was glorious. ]

As last survivor of the Gerudo, every right. But now, to achieve Hyrule's revival, one need to control the Tower itself...

[ur_batteries_are_dying]

They remain me.

[Not really.]

You are not a god and have no right to decide whether the Golden Goddesses were right or wrong.

[great_king_of_evil]

Whatever.

I have the right to use my intelligence and judge by myself. Feel free to reject what little intelligence you have in exchange for blind obedience. They destroyed my world and my specie. If anything, your Gods are those you should call Evil.

[ur_batteries_are_dying]

Were they evil, they'd have simply destroyed all that they created rather than simply flooding the Surface. They flooded their world. You simply lived there.

[great_king_of_evil]

[ In Ganon's book what she just said is both disgusting and confirmation. ]

They flooded their world. You simply lived there. are your words, spirit. This means in your eyes, the lives of those who inhabit it are at the mercy of the Gods. We're nothing but toy in their hand.

[ He chuckles. ]

How righteous you are.

[ur_batteries_are_dying]

You twist my words into something they are not meant to mean. The entire world remains, they simply created a great flood. Some lives were lost but the vast majority of them were saved. The goddesses could have simply destroyed all life and begun again.

They did not.

[great_king_of_evil]

Actually, the vast majority was left to perish, including everyone from my kind. Only a few were saved.

Also, I am afraid to say this is basically what they did. They only kept the basics of the ancient world to make their recreation easier.

[ur_batteries_are_dying]

Enough people survived that races and cultures survived.

Blinded by your hatred of the gods, your words are biased. Filled with anger and nothing but. I will not continue to listen to your wrongful assertion to those who you owe your existence.
