Image 2 - Panel 1 : Impa: "This door is the Door of Unopening. When this door opens is the day Hyrule is on the verge of crisis."

Panel 3 : Impa: "The door is opening!!"
Image 2 - Panel 2 : Impa: "Please, head inside."

Image 1 - Panel 2 : Link: "Such a beautiful lady..."
Image 2 - Panel 3 : Impa: "That lady's name is Zelda the First. (You're drooling Link!)" ((Or Zelda 1 I guess. I'm not entirely sure what to call her))
Link: "Huh?"
Panel 4 : Link: "Princess Zelda the First!!"
Panel 5 : Link: "Then what about present Princess Zelda...!!"
Panel 6 : Impa: "A sad story that revolves around the three pieces of the Triforce...That is the Legend of Zelda."
Panel 7 : Link: *The three pieces...!?*
Image 3 - Panel 1 : Impa/Narrator: "A long time ago in the land of Hyrule lived a great King who used the Triforce for greater good."
Panel 2 : Impa/Narrator: "When the King died the Prince was to receive all of his riches...but he was only given two pieces of the Triforce; the Triforce of Wisdom and the Triforce of Power."
Panel 3 : Impa/Narrator: "He set out on a search to find the last piece of the Triforce and was confronted by a sorcerer. The sorcerer claimed that his sister, Zelda the First, was in possession of the key that led to where the last piece was."
Image 1 - Panel 1 : Impa/Narrator: "The Prince was desperate to find the last piece and kept questioning the Princess, but she never said a word about it."
Panel 2 : Impa/Narrator: "The sorcerer who was getting fed up, started to chant an evil spell on her."
Panel 3 : Impa/Narrator: "The surprised Prince tried to stop the sorcerer, but it was too late..."
Panel 4 : Impa/Narrator: "..For the Princess had already fallen into an endless sleep."
Image 2 - Panel 1 : Impa/Narrator: "The Prince who became full of lament and sorrow, left the Princess inside the Northern Castle." ((I'm going to keep it titled "Northern Castle"))
Panel 2 - Impa: "And to never forget that day, every female that was born in the Hylian Royal Family was named 'Zelda'"
Panel 3 - Link: "So that's the legend..."
Panel 5 : Impa: "Link, take this!!"

Image 1 - Panel 1 : Impa: "These scrolls and crystals ((They probably mean rupees)) were prepared for the one chosen who meant to be the next great king of Hyrule."
Panel 2 : Impa: "At this time and age, no one can read this scroll, but you who holds the sacred symbol should be able to read it."
Panel 3 : Link: *Ah, she's right!!*
Image 2 - Panel 1 : Link: *"The last piece of the Triforce is the Triforce of Courage...However, only the chosen one is able to use it. The Prince was not qualified for it..."*
Panel 2 : Link/Narrator: *"The King himself hid the Triforce of Courage inside the Great Temple in Death Valley for the chosen one. Six temples with barriers cut-off outsiders and stopped them from getting in."* ((I have questions for the past sentence but it should be pretty accurate))
Image 1 - Panel 2 : Impa: "Link, whatever you do, please save Hyrule."
Panel 3 : Link: "Don't worry about it Impa. I will come back here without fail!!"
Image 2 - Panel 1 : Link/Narrator: "And save Princess Zelda!!"
Narrator: "Link repeated this several times inside of his heart, as he left the Northern Castle behind him."
