They say I'm wise beyond my years...

OOC: I am putting this up now, even though it's clearly not finished! I will be updating it a little at a time so that I'm not so overwhelmed. Please keep in mind that all the upcoming information is already available oocly, so when this post is linked by Zelda, assume that the rest of the information has already been updated even though I, as a mun, may be slow in doing so.

Everything that is linked in this post has been hand-copied by Zelda. It will show up as part of the text on the page instead of as a link. I’m just too lazy to write them out, that’s all. All of this information is also contained in a journal that is kept in the Town Hall next to the bestiary. Zelda keeps it updated as she finds out new information in order to make sure it syncs up with the digital copy.

Thank you all for the information that you shared with me last month. I'm currently putting together a text page that will be available through the communicators so that everyone can reference the information easily. If anyone has anything new to add, please let me know now.

[She pauses for a moment, and then continues.]

I should have asked this sooner. Has anyone heard of any iron that is associated with luck?

[She tried contacting Sheik privately after not seeing him for several days, but for some reason the communicator wouldn't let her connect. With a sinking feeling, she turns on a public channel.]

Sheik, where are you?

[When she receives no reply, she shifts her focus to everyone else.]

Has anyone seen him recently?

[She doesn't say anything more, just lifting Saki's bunny up closer to cuddle as she ends the feed.]

I know that many of you may be busy with your normal duties as well as preparations for the coming winter, but if I may, I would like to take some time to hopefully begin a discussion about the information that I have collected thus far. It is more a matter of curiosity than anything else at the moment, but I feel it might be important in the future, perhaps in helping us to find a way to return to our homes.

[She looks down, and though her actions are out of the view of the screen, one might hear her turning a few pages of a book. An empty one that she has filled up herself with notes, unlike the last time. She has learned her lesson.]

I have here a copy of the information presented in the book of the fae from the Mansion, as well as notes that could connect them to what I saw in the dreams and read from additional books in the library. For example, the poem of the Erlking which was recited in part by one of the beings in the dream, or the stone circles that were mentioned in the few books I was able to access during my last visit to the Mansion.

[She looks back up at the screen briefly.]

I have written down these observations, but there is still much more that I would like to add, if any of you could help me in this. [Nudge, nudge.] I am particularly interested in learning about the stone circles. [Hint, hint.]

[She returns to the book, flipping through the pages slowly once again as she is about to make a closing statement. But then something catches her eye, and she decides to conclude with that,]

Do any of you know what is meant by "there is iron that can go anywhere"?

[Though it's raining on her birthday, Zelda is not particularly upset. She's quite pleased, in fact, because it gives her a chance to experiment with some of her barrier magic. She spends most of the evening outside by the well, trying to figure out how to balance her power properly to create a magical umbrella to block rainfall over her head. Once she's got the hang of it, she opens a video feed, thinking that she should share the news with the rest of Demeleier.

Sharp observers may notice that behind her, emerging from the deepening shadow of early nightfall, a tall figure looms over her. His pale face is devoid of expression, white eyes gleaming unnaturally.]

Good evening--

[Her right hand stretches out, but before she can point to her work, the Deity snatches her wrist. With a panicked shriek, she drops her communicator, and as the device falls, the video manages to show the Oni pulling Zelda up towards him so that she hangs helplessly in the air. The image is lost once the camera flips over and is covered by the ground, but the sound still records her pained gasps and a low, rumbling hum.]

((OOC: Fierce Deity does not actually intend to harm Zelda deliberately, but everyone is free to react to the video or come upon the scene in action.))

[It's been two days since she woke up in this place for what she believed was the first time. Her last memories were of trying to sneak out of the castle back in Hyrule while waiting for Link to complete his tasks, and she's not sure if that had anything to do with why she's suddenly in an unfamiliar land. Whatever the reason, there definitely seems to be something strange, though not obviously harmful, going on. She's had some time to get used to it though, and while she's waiting for this mysterious spell or whatever it is to end, she might as well have some fun. Especially now that she's stumbled upon the Bunny Hood and learned about the abilities it gives her when she wears it.

She's still unused to the workings of the communicator, but she gets the video turned on and angled to show her face, her bunny ears flopping as she tilts her head from side to side. Her expression is eager, filled with a ten-year-old's energy and a hint of mischeviousness.]

Hey, does anyone want to play tag~ with me?



[A small pause follows her question, and she puts a hand up to the side of her mouth as if she's telling those listening through the communicator a secret.]

Oh, make sure to watch out for Impa. If she asks you, don't tell her that you saw me, okay?

[She doesn't seem to realize that this isn't the best way to make a message that you don't want someone specific to overhear.]

((OOC: Replies will come from thelegendofme))

[The view on the screen is upside-down and shaky, the folds of her dress being the only thing visible at first. The video tilts up, revealing her face and expression, much paler than usual and absolutely terrified.]

Link--! Sheik--! [Her voice is shrill, panicked.] He's here! Ganondorf is here!

[Once again the view on the screen is jostled around as she turns the communicator to point it at 'Ganondorf'. However, it turns out that the other creature in her croft is actually just a bunny. A fluffy, tan, line-faced bunny that is just shuffling forward into the center of the room.

Of course, this only causes Zelda to become even more agitated. With a little shriek, she tries to press herself further into the corner of the room, the communicator falling out of her hands and onto the floor. In her mind, the walls of her house are pressing in, smothering her with darkness, and Ganondorf is towering over her, backing her into the wall, waiting to torture and kill her. For some reason all rational thought has fled, leaving her cold, terrified, alone.]



((OOC: Zelda had borrowed a book from the Mansion's library, and keeping it this long has caused her to hallucinate and develop a case of irrational fear, etc. The book has now been borrowed by Aveil, and yes, Saki's new bunny is the 'Ganondorf' in this hallucination.))

[A short while after the fighting reaches the village,] I have placed magical barriers around the Inn and the Infirmary that are capable of withstanding the dragon's attacks [so far at least...]. Anyone who is seeking shelter should come to one of these buildings immediately, if possible. [There is a pause and muffled conversation, as if she is discussing something with others offline before adding,] I will also continue to place as many barriers as I can throughout the village for those who cannot make it this far. [And she ends the message there, since she needs to get moving.]

Warning: Potential mild violence in comments, if your character would like to fight Ganon in her dream. Also, the "descendant" described below looks just like OoT!Zelda, but if your character knew TP!Zelda, feel free to let them alter her image accordingly.

( She's suspended in a world of darkness... )

[Zelda spends the first few minutes after arrival trying to understand the purpose of the strange device in her hands. She makes a little progress, but not enough to know that she has turned the video option on as she directs her attention back to her new surroundings. After studying the view for a little bit, she sighs and looks back down in disappointment. She feels so lost.]

This isn’t Hyrule... [Said out loud, but to herself.] Where am I?
