Fighting For Freedom (Selene Vs Link)

[Strider89]

Standard Wrestling Match! The first to pin, submit or KO their opponent wins!

The idyllic haven of Elysia did not permit men to step on their shores. The women-only clan forbade it after a male human came and woo'd their Amazonian Queen, only to rob their treasury and abandoned his pregnant lover. These events have had a deep impact on the Elysians and their laws, hence their intolerance of male visitors.

So when one was discovered to have snuck abroad the island several years later, the females were naturally furious. Some demanded that he be beheaded. Others wanted him locked up indefinitely. Until a prominent figure intervened in the matter. The child of the affair that had shamed the Elysians, and their future half-blood queen. Princess Selene Typhaine.

Selene argued that the intruder be given a chance for freedom, believing he ought to be dealt with fairly. At first the idea was met with humility, until she proposed the male's 'test'. A wrestling match, a proud tradition of her home. The man would have to pin her or make her submit, and he would be granted freedom. But if he lost, he would become an Elysian slave to the Amazons. This caused the women to accept the idea eagerly, keen to see the foolish man humiliated and dominated for thinking he could defy their rules. And so the match was set.

Selene

Selene adjusted her wrestling attire in her changing chambers. She had gone with her usual sparring white dress, preferring the mobility it gave her. That was key in the sport. For her feet, she chose to wear heeled sandals, tied halfway up her lower leg. It was time to prove herself. To her people and to those who doubted her. Stepping out of her chambers, she emerged in the marble arena where combatants in Elysia often fought. The crowd cheered for her, a perfect blue sky hanging over them. Selene rose a fist to the crowd in silent acknowledgement, her face filled with determination as she stepped down the ramp towards the wrestling ring. Seizing the bottom rope, the princess stepped between the middle and top rope, where a female referee was ready to inspect her. Then, she remained in the centre, ready to greet the opponent her subjects were so keen to see her punish.

Link has heard about the paradise haven of Elysia while he was exploring somewhere outside of Hyrule and that is was entirely made up of women entirely. Link is actually no stranger to Amazonian land as back at Hyrule there IS a Amazonian land he has visited before which is the land of Gerudo. So he theorized that the island of Elysia is like Gerudo when it comes with the no-man-rule.

It was a good thing that he actually stashed some Gerudo clothing before setting out on his adventure so he can do something to sneak aboard into the island with the Gerudo disguise. When he arrived, he was pretty much welcomed at the island and he explored the land with a tour guide all of who they didn't know he was a guy. After some time he went some place he thought was safe enough to think out loud but a woman happened to come across him and she contacted the rest of the Elysians. Soon enough he was surrounded and captured as he didn't put up a fight at all.

At first he thought that this was going to be something simple like 'Don't come back' and they'll just throw him to the water where he has survive on his own, but nope he was likely going to be killed in one way or another. Even though he wields the Triforce of Courage, he does know that this is a extremely bad situation to be in. Though when Selene walked in and suggested a wrestling match with what would if he wins or loses, he was very relived as wrestling is something he can do easily...though the question is: Can he beat Selene?

Link changed into his wrestling outfit with the request of the lady guards to go through his bag to get it and change in the changing chambers. His outfit is pretty standard for a wrestling outfit since he's wearing pants, some bandages and some other pieces of clothing to go along with it. He's not even wearing shoes like the princess is, just straight up barefoot. Anyways it was time to win and get out of here, he steps out of the chambers and emerged in marble arena where just literally everyone was booing at him the moment he made himself visibly. This was very embarrassing, not even the nice weather was helping any for him. He just walked down the ramp and enter the wrestling ring, seize the bottom rope and stepped in the ring. "...Well this is embarrassing and also very confusing, how do I keep getting myself into these situations? I can't tell if I'm lucky or unlucky" He's mainly talking to himself.

Selene's eyes never wander from her foe once Link steps out to the arena. The crowd was keen to make their dislike of him clear as they heckled and booed. The princess reasoned it was only natural given Elysia's history. As he stepped into the ring, the girl noted the boy's nervousness as he spoke aloud, questioning his luck. She examined him, noting his physique. Hm, so he had a decent body for the sport. But did he have the experience necessary to topple her?

"You are certainly lucky I intervened." She addressed him, interrupting his monologue. "There was talk of beheading you. That does not excuse your foolishness and arrogance, however. I understand you even dressed as a woman to deceive my people into welcoming you with open arms." The princess approached Link and stared, her gaze boring into him. It was not hostile, but she made it clear she was judging him. "But I aim to be a fair ruler, which is why I have given you this chance. If you can pin or make me submit, you will go free."

"But if you lose..." She raised her voice so the crowd could hear. "You become a slave. And believe me, there are plenty of girls here who would love an errand boy." The audience roared their agreement as Selene smiled. "I hope you don't hold back simply because I am a woman, or we'll be finished here before the sun moves even an inch." She stood before the male, waiting to see how he would respond before the bell rang to start the match.

Link definitely thinks that it's possible that something must have happened to make Elysia hate men so much. Indeed he did has a decent and athletically fit body as he would always train his body everyday. He likes to think that he has the experience to topple her but he knows that he has to do this match in order to know for sure on that.

"I guess I am lucky that you have intervened and it would have been most unfortunate if I were to die in this land. I can understand when it comes with foolishness but arrogance? Arrogance would be implying that I find myself more important than anyone else and I haven't said or done anything that would imply that I thought of the sort...have I?" He wasn't sure if maybe doing certain things would be called arrogant here but wouldn't everywhere else. Link just looked at her back "I'm sure that you don't need my opinion, but personally speaking I think giving me this chance because you want to be a fair ruler is a great goal to set your sights towards so I approve of that."

He would chuckle a little nervous "I was sort of an errand boy in a way back at my homeland but doing that sort of thing for the rest of my life isn't exactly an ideal position I would like to be in." He clears his throat a little bit and he takes a deep breath "Believe me if you want but this isn't my first time stepping into Amazonian territory and if there's anything I learned as a solider of Hyrule, it's to never underestimate an opponent and for me personally, goes double for Amazonian women so you bet I won't hold back on you. Oh right what was your name again? The excitement of this match caused me to forget...if anyone told me your name already that is. My name is Link, the reincarnated Hero of Time of Hyrule...supposedly. I didn't pick that title at all, everyone just calls me the Hero of Time back at Hyrule."
