[Text]

Dear Rulers of this land,

My name is Ganondorf Dragmire, and I am the King of the Gerudo, the people of my homeworld. I have only been here a scant amount of time, but your level of leadership impresses me greatly. Though I would prefer to meet with you in person, I must admit I do not know my way around as well as I would like, and must pledge myself via this message. If there is anything you wish of me, I will do all in my power to provide it.

Yours loyally, Ganondorf Dragmire

[After his letter is away, and his first step forward is begun, Ganondorf goes to where he usually does: a patrol of the lands and shops. Any strategic value is being calculated in his twisted head as time progresses. And he's not passing anywhere up. So, you're likely to see him around, mumbling to himself at times, maybe a knowing grin on his face as he's discovered something of worth. So, stop by and say hi to the rather large pony with the big flaming mane.]

This mark.

[He'll refer to his not-so-cutie mark.]

THIS...is the Triforce. Three golden triangles, left by the three Goddesses upon their creation of the world. Power, Wisdom, and Courage: the three governing forces of life. Placed in the Sacred Realm by fools who thought they could keep it from hands of those who could use it properly.

It is NO misunderstanding. It is TRUE power.

Wait. [Zetta half-turns away, holding up a hoof to block out the unwelcome sight of another stallion's flank. Doesn't swing that way, thanks.] So it's divine leftovers, and that's what amounts to 'true power' where you come from?

Those 'leftovers' allow you to do ALL. To control all. It MAKES you a God.

[Okay, even Zetta can tell he's not properly communicating just how small-potatoes this is, so maybe a different tack is necessary.]

So... this 'King of Evil' guy has all three of them? What's he doing with them, then?

He would have turned the world to darkness....but then 'The Hero chosen by the Goddesses' interfered.

[Yep.]

And stopped him, right?

Of course. Is that not what 'heroes' do?

[Smirk.]

Then, I suppose you know all too well.

Hyaaaa ha ha ha ha! So the objects of allegedly ultimate power couldn't stop some misfit adventurer from saving the day after all, huh?

[Tossing his head back, Zetta rears back proudly, then slaps a hoof to his chest proudly as he drops back down.]

But I, Zetta, have conquered and razed countless planets without a single defeat, at the hands of a so-called hero or anyone else! THAT's power!

...Really? And that's why this place still stands, hmm?

Just because I can destroy a world doesn't mean I have to. And part of being a proper Overlord is having standards. [Zetta huffs, irritated that he has to explain the whole concept of why deceit is weakness yet again.]

Oh? Or could it be the 'badass overlord' LIKES little, pink ponies, and can't bring himself to harm them?

Or is it your entire build-up is nothing but steam in a balloon?

...Some of them have their good points.

--But when it comes to harm, I've already committed the greatest act of evil against ponydom imaginable! I pushed a Fluttershy into a pond!

[Once. Two years ago.]

......

[He'll sit and begin the slowest, most line-faced clap ever conducted.]

Such brazen disregard for life has never been seen outside of a schoolyard. I am shocked and appalled.

[Zetta crosses his forelegs stubbornly.]

It may sound lame, but ask anyone. It doesn't get much more evil. I still have outstanding threats of vengeance against me for that.

I'm pretty sure you're exaggerating.

[Little does he know...little does he know...]

[Zetta drops his ego for just long enough to give a really bewildered shrug.]

Yeah, you'd think that, but seriously, ask around. I declared war on the entire planet and no one blinked, but THAT they don't forgive me for.
