Link didn't know where he was going. During his last adventure, he pretty much explored every inch of Hyrule; even inside graves. Yet, he couldn't recognize a thing. All the land marks that helped were gone and for once, he had no idea where he was. Link jumped down a small hill, which he guessed was unnatural, and continued down down the path of ruins. "ZELDA! WHERE ARE YOU?" He shouted.

Silence turned when he heard someone say Zelda's name. His eyes darted from left to right, trying to spot the source. He quickly wrapped himself in shadows and teleported, not wanting to be seen as he transported himself near a bush, then moved to hid behind it. He heard of too many idiots teleporting behind it and not making it far enough...

Romani hid her smile. "There is no need to be so.. formal..." However, just the way he talked made him seem even more like a dream. A very handsome dream, if that. She offered him the chair next to her. She then practically ran into the kitchen to get the meal she had cooked. It was a cuccoo casserole. She set the dish on the table and served Assis first. Her tummy growled smelling the food. She was so busy taking care of Assis, that she didn't have time to eat her lunch. Lastly she served herself. She then bowed her head, saying a quick prayer to the goddesses. After she finished, she looked at Assis, smiling. "I hope you like it... I cooked it myself.... It happens to be my favorite."

"Probably, but... would you a concussion as bad as his from falling off a cliff?" Josline asked, her hands behind her back. She glanced over at Tenser with a tilt in her head. "C'mon, if you don't mind being quiet, I can see if I can make us anything to eat." She said, briefly looking at the sun. It was high above their head, informing Josline that it was around noon. She turned and headed towards the shack.
Eva tilted her head. "This will be interesting..." Eva said to herself. She walked over after Josline, catching up to her. The two smiled brightly, speaking of the time the two had missed. And Eva enjoyed speaking to her. It was something she hadn't been able to feel before. She glanced back at Tenser and smiled brightly at him.

Assis humbly took his seat, bowing respectfully as Romani prayed over the meal. He knew a similar prayer. The word used in Gerudo tongue was closer to “Mother”, more specifically, “Grandmother.” The entity to which they were showing their gratitude was one and the same. Still, out of respect to the house, he prayed silently with Romani to Goddess. In a Gerudo house, if Romani were to interrupt a prayer to Grandmother with her own deity, or even to invite the name into their house after Grandmother’s thanks had been offered. Therefore, he would treat her house with the same respect, for he realized their differences lied only in culture.
After he was done eating, Assis let out a large sigh of satisfaction as he sat back in his chair. The food had been a bit salty, but he made no complaints as he took joy in his full belly. Not to mention, the milk had been fresh, and tasted sweet. This kind of milk was something he was not used to, but he enjoyed the taste. The taste of the milk itself, as well as the cucco meat, was enough to compliment her ability to raise animals. One could simply taste the love which Romani shared with the life that surrounded her here. Despite the death and destruction in the world around this ranch, Assis was constantly amazed by how well they were living.
”Thank you, Romani. I have not eaten like this in years!”
A bright grin spread across his face as he silently scolded himself for continuing to make small talk during such a time of unrest. His mission still prodded him in the back of his mind, practically screaming at him to get up and go. Now that he thought about it, his sword was still stuck in the floor not five feet from the table.
Speaking of his sword, Gormon sat up in his seat, face flushed due to the alcohol content of the milk he’d been drinking. He glared furiously at Assis, showing no sympathy whatsoever.
”Well, so happy ta 'blige, Az'ey. Since yer full now, ya must’ve got some o’ yer strength back b’now, eh?”
He slapped his palm down on the table, causing the plates to rattle on the surface. He hadn’t meant any harm by it, but the man was drunk. He was just slightly incoherent to his general tactlessness at this point.

Tenser smiled back, though still unsure. Josline seemed fine, to an extent so far, but this other person...he was a bit worried. Would he try to harm Eva?
"I'm sure things will. Let's hope its the good kind of interesting, not the bad."

Zelda gasped when her name was called. She recognized the voice immediately. "Link!" she called. "LINK!"

(might as well not leave you hanging...)
Silence slowly came out of his hiding spot, unsure if he should be out in the open.
"Who is that? Who is Link? And what kind of name is 'Link'??"
He cocked his head, though it was difficult to see with his hood on.

Romani smiled at the compliment to her cooking. "Thanks... it was nothing... really.." She finished her meal, probably a tad faster than appropriate. But her manners were nothing compared to Gorman's out burst. She rose quickly trying to settle him. "That's it! I am tired of this, Gorman. I am getting rid of the wine! You obviously can't keep your stubby fingers off of it!" She scolded. She got him up from the table and moved him off to his room. She shut the door, ignoring his mumblings about the disposal of his wine. She walked back into the main room to find Assis standing near his weapon. "I apologize... He gets that way sometimes..." She was completely embarrassed by him. If Gorman scared him away, then she would just go back into her normal drabble of chores. She was enjoying the change of pace, even if it put more work on her.
Robin rolled over on his side, hearing voices. Was he hearing things? He opened his eyes and saw that his bow was placed on the table. He got up sluggishly, still unbalanced from the fall. He grabbed his bow and his quiver and slid to floor. Where in the world am I? Was I abducted? Surely those people are the ones... plotting against me! He grabbed an arrow and put it in his bow. After he had it aimed at the door, he waited.
((oh noes! It looks like Robin is suffereing from memory loss :[ ))

Link's face lit up when he heard the response, but he still couldn't see anyone. "ZELDA! Where are you? I can't see you!" He shouted back, fighting his way through the fog that covered the land. He jumped down another hill, a little thrilled that he no one longer felt the pain in his side when he ran for even a little bit.

White and Black blinked at each other. "Well, we were going to make a plan..." They muttered and sighed.
Black looked over at Envy and shrugged. "Well, what do you want to do?" He asked. Zelda was missing, and Link ran off to find her, so no planning was going to be getting done anytime soon.

Assis smiled sheepishly as he stood up from the table.
"It's ok, really. He is right, I should get that out of your floor."
He felt more sheepish than his smile let off. He'd been enough of a burden already. Then, to have to fix a hole in the floor because of Gormon's expected lack of knowledge concerning the red scimitar. It was a blade that only knew its master's hand. It would accept no other.
Assis walked over to take the sword out of the floorboards. For him, it came out with great ease. It'd been laying on its side, so there was no trick to pulling it out, just lifting it out of the decorative new hole in the floor. He slipped it back into its hold on the left side of his belt. The floorboards sat in pieces where the sword had been. Assis stared down at the floor, then looked over to Romani, then back down to the floor.
"Umm.... I can fix this, if you want."
His sheepish smile diminished as reality set in. One way or another, he had to go.
"That is.... after I return from my prior engagement."
He turned back to face her once more, his gaze more serious.
"Romani.... I'm going into Castle Town. I plan to speak with the Dark Lord himself, and I will not return until this madness has stopped."
He was, of course, talking about his father. He would never tell her that for fear of her reaction. The son of Ganondorf standing plain as day before her. In his own mind, Assis was no hero. Even if he was against his father's actions he'd had no intention of saving the beurocratic smutts what inhabited the walls of Castle Town. He despised them all, those city-types. His heart lay with the land itself, that Grandmother be pulled from the fire. Still, it didn't seem completely fair to leave without some kind of explaination.

Josline walked towards the shack, but something told her that she was going to meet something she rather not. She remembered the magic around the home, it gave her a sense of danger if any possible intruders that were dangerous that were in her home. Right now, it was like her senses were on high. Something wrong... I'm guessing the guest I brought home is the reason... She thought, looking over at Tenser and Eva. She was speaking to him, probably telling him of how Josline and her met. What a laugh that would be. A small worried look hinted in Tenser's smiling face. "Hm, this calls for some cautious thinking..." She murmured and slipped through the shadows without even opening the door. "Stay here... I'll be one second." Josline voice echoed through Eva's ear. Josline entered her home. She noticed Robin was up, but not only was he awake, he had his bow in his hand and had it pointed towards the door. Was he worried about something? "Are you alright?" Josline asked, looking over at Robin. Could she stop a pelting arrow that could possibly pierce her chest? Probably not... but she really didn't want to fight the man who was seriously injured from a fall which he claimed was out of the sky.
Eva blinked as Josline disappeared into the shadows into her own home. She wondered what was the matter. Surely a person couldn't have robbed her at that moment when she was speaking to Tenser and herself. Looking anxiously over at Tenser, she moved towards the home. Something about the air gave her the chills. "I invented a spell." Josline had told her when she had showed Eva the place. "It's a spell in which can change the air to the person who is inside the house. Usually, you get an anxious feeling even if it's small, if you're stealing something. You can feel it in the air, and then I know someone is in my house... not that they would want anything. Got nothing on my name. Just this ratty ol' house." Josline could usually make Eva laugh at this, even though it meant nothing. Josline could, or would at least try to make someone laugh. "Best medicine, laughter... can make anyone feel better, even myself." Josline would always say to her. Making Eva wish that she had that power.
"Maybe we should follow him? What if Zelda's in trouble?" Envy asked, worried that Link would get hurt again. She looked over at Opal, the child had the same look.

Black shrugged and shook his head. "If the princess is in trouble, she can handle herself. She isn't weak, even if she does seem like it sometimes." He looked over at White, then at Opal. "However, if you want, we can go after Link." He added.
White nodded. "My thoughts are the same as Black's, so it's up to you two." He looked at both of the girls, waiting on their answers.

Romani looked at him. He was going away... hurt. If his arm got worse, she would feel terrible. But the thought of going out and on an adventure thrilled her. However, she needed her floor fixed... "I can't let go out like that... You arm still needs attention. You can't change the wrappings yourself..." She then got an idea. "Let me go with you! I can take care of your arm... Then I can make sure you come back and fix floor." Her eyes sparkled at the thught of riding off with this man. "Gorman can take care of the ranch while I am away." She then gestured toward the bow and quiver full of arrows on the wall. "I can defend myself as well and possibly even help you."
Robin blinked. "Do I know you? And where have you taken me? Did you knock me out?" He pulled the arrow back ready to release if she made any sudden movements.
