Death Mountain - The Legend of Zelda Original Game Audio
"Perfect, Theo!" Shalin chirped, Levy cooing in excitement.
"That'll do nicely!" Subtlety was a four letter word to Shalin; most of her Pokémon were boisterous and made their presence known. How could a saddle-wearing Beedrill, especially a Mega Evolved one, not make its presence known, after all?
She would then turn to
Alexei Ivanov .
"Shouldn't be needed! Just get on Levy's back behind me! Theo's Tentacruel will keep us out of sight of security. We can't go too fast, or they'll detect our wakes." Provided Alex would agree to the aquatic ride, Shalin would lead the way to Sootopolis, not straying too far from Theo's Tentacruel to keep under the shield of
MIRROR COAT preventing their intrusion from being detected. If Rocket at large found out... the disaster could be untold, depending on what was beyond those sealed gates.
The dive bubble surrounding Levy let Shalin speak with the Fortree Leader as they made their way through the winding, white tunnel.
"Remember all the way back in the Braviary's Nest, when we found out that Spectacle Rock in Sootopolis is an entrance to death? Well... this is it." Her heart raced already, and they weren't even inside.
The three surfaced in an undersea cave beneath the city as Shalin recalled her Milotic and called on her ever-faithful Pyroar steed. She also sent out Scar, her male Pyroar, who was a relatively new addition to the team. It would provide Alex with a reliable ride, as well as additional light. The temple-like Halls of Origin stood before them. Twelve large stone statues lined its entryway, in six pairs. The statues that faced one another were all pairs of diametrically opposed legendary Pokémon. Lugia and Ho-oh. Groudon and Kyogre. Tornadus and Thundurus. Xerneas and Yveltal. Their footsteps echoes with unnatural volume as Shalin advanced beyond their imposing gazes.
Beyond was a large chamber containing a dais with a yellow, jagged shape resembling the Creator-God's power wheel when in its Normal Forme. At the edges of the dais were eight pedestals, one in each cardinal direction. Shalin vividly recalled the cryptic message present on the shuttered doors:
"Alex, this is it. We're getting to the bottom of this, one way or another." Digging through her fully-packed supply bag, she pulled out the stack of eight Medallions she had procured from the dangerous locales scattered throughout Hoenn, the Gale Medallion on top. Once again, she read aloud the messages in the center of the dais, as well as on the pedestals themselves.
"Ye who seek the forbidden secrets of Hoenn past, locked in these Halls of Origin: show thine power, thine wisdom, and thine courage locked behind the Medallions of Eight. Only then will these ancient Halls open to thee. One atop a remote peak, passed down by avian-blessed warriors..."She paused, inserting the
GALE MEDALLION into the northmost pedestal.
"One in the depths of a wetland snake's belly..."The
NIGHT MEDALLION, clicked into place.
"One buried in an arctic prison..."The
GLACIAL MEDALLION.
"One in an ancient pharaoh's tomb..."The
CHROME MEDALLION.
"One in a mystic palace erected in defiance of reality..."The
MIRAGE MEDALLION.
"One beyond the jaws of a dragon of stone..."The
METEOR MEDALLION.
"One in the shadow of the grandest tombstone..."The
ETHEREAL MEDALLION.
"One in the hottest, fiercest depths of Hoenn's red earth..."The
THERMAL MEDALLION.
Once the eighth Medallion clicked into place, columns of light corresponding with the color of each one shot toward the ceiling, blowing Shalin and her lioness off the platform and back toward Theo and Alex. The cryptic message faded from the doors. With a large dust cloud, the shutters keeping the Halls of Origin sealed opened. Mere seconds later, lighting in the temple dropped a shade as lightning seemed to arc in the air out of nowhere. Shalin could only come to one conclusion.
The entire Halls of Origin were one giant Space-Time Distortion.
