Welcome to Gaia! ::

Link felt a nagging sense in the back of his head. "Hey Aryll?" he slowly asked, "am I forgetting something?" He either forgot something important, or forgot to do something important.

Seton felt something hard against his dagger. It was a dirt covered rupee. Sweet, he thought to himself, free money. Then again... I was cutting the grass for this.

(In that game IN GENERAL, there was always something to do XD)

"Ummm... Did you do the dishes last night?" Aryll asked. But the look on her brother's face said that that wasn't the thing he had forgotton. "Did you remember to return Orca's sword to him after you practiced with it?" Link still didn't think that was it. "Hmmm..." Aryll tried to think of something, but nothing came to mind.

(-OOC: I'm kinda going to have to wait a bit too. I'll wait till you guys get to Windfall island as well.-)

"Oh, I was just wondering if you would come to the forest with me, I left my telescope there and I'm afraid to go by myself." Aryll said, blushing at her little braveness. "Maybe you will remember what you forgot after a little while."

Aryll followed her brother to Orca's house, where they got a sword. But, while they were there, Aryll heard something. It was almost like a loud seagull squawking, except 100 times louder. "Link... what was that?" Aryll asked, a concerned look on her face. She looked out the window and saw a large, ugly, purple bird, swooping overhead. There was something in his talons, but without her telescope Aryll couldn't see what it was.

"Learn magic, they said. Join Ganondorf, they said. See the world, they said."

A very agitated Wizzrobe sat in the Woods above Outset Island, rubbing a small cloth on the lens of his spy-glass. Stupid thing is like a dirt magnet. This was the highest point of his career, he lamented. He was supposed to be helping take over the world or whatever nonsense the Chief had sucked the Wizzrobe clan into. All he had done for the past three weeks was sit in the woods and spy on the people living on the island. He didn't like this place. The Forbidden Forest had a much more...Cozy feeling to it. At least to him, it did.

Once the lens was cleaned sufficiently, Thelanis tossed the cloth behind him and resumed his spying activities. Lady with the pot on her head...Check. Fat lady hanging out by the Pig-pen...Check. Guy trying to catch a pig...Check. Guy cutting grass...Check. Blond children in the tower...Check. The boy had a really nasty tendency to sleep there. Thelanis couldn't figure out why, it hardly looked comfortable.

Sighing, Thelanis collapsed the spy-glass. It disappeared in a puff of purple-ish black smoke to be summoned again as he needed it. He'd check back on things later. He hopped back down off the natural wall, landing by the giant rock near the fairy fountain. That lady had been really annoying the first few weeks he was here. Good thing he had it plugged up with a giant boulder that was lying nearby. Really convenient. As he plopped down from the bit of elevated land the boulder and fairy fountain were situated on, something red and shiny caught his eye. He sauntered over to it, finding a nice red telescope with a couple Sea Gulls painted on the side.

"Ooooh. Must be my lucky day."

Thelanis didn't bother thinking about if whoever left this telescope had seen him and run off without it. Probably just some careless person left it there. Come to think of it, it looked kind of like the telescope the blond girl was using all the time on the lookout the blond guy slept on. As he cross-examined the telescope, he heard a distinctive loud caw.

What's the Helmaroc King doing in this backwater neck of the woods?

Thelanis hopped back towards where he had come from, getting ready to observe whatever was happening with his new telescope. So curious was he that he didn't hear something fall into the trees above and behind him.

Aryll couldn't believe it. The giant bird was just here for a girl. After she and her brother saw that, they were off to the forest. Seton could try to stop them, but he wouldn't keep them out of the forest. Aryll hated it when older people treated the younger ones like little babies. As they charged to the forest, the giant bird started swooping down for Aryll. "Ahhhh!" Aryll screamed as the bird's talon scraped her face. Aryll ducked behind a tree, but that didn't help. The bird grabbed her and took off. "Link! Link! Save the other girl first! Then help me!" Aryll wanted to be saved badly, but she knew that the other girl shouldn't be forgotten.

Aryll was very mad. She had spent the past 5 minutes screaming at the bird for capturing her. Now she was out of breath, and her throat was sore from screaming. She drifted into a deep sleep that was broken by the sound of cannon blasts. Suddenly, Aryll saw something fly at the bird. It was a cannon ball, and it hit the bird right in the face, causing it talons to loose hold of Aryll. Aryll plummeted into the water, and thankfully there was a tiny island a few yards away. She swam to the isle, and climbed ashore.
