Link sat down on a lone log in the forest, it was a calm day today, like most the days in Ordon. Today the sun was out most of the day with fluffy white clouds passing by throughout the day never covering the sun once. He looked at the darkened woods, it was evening the sun was setting and the forest was quiet and the setting sun peeking its last bits of rays through the trees. Still a few hours of day time left. He stood up seeing his jug of water that was for the whole village; full and he walked over to it as it was put on its side in the middle of the river to fill up. He had his brown fabric pants rolled up to his knees and white shirt as well to his elbows. The village had a river but it was limited and couldn't keep up with the water demands with the goats and people living around it.

Link went up to the jug in the cooler water from the mountains across the land that he had never seen before but hoped he would one day. He flipped it over and saw a red tint in the jug and he looked at it closer and saw a bit of blood in it now that he looked at it closer. He looked around the river to see if anything had happened on why it would do this but he didn't see anything in the calm river barely going to his knees but he was off to the side of it, in the middle the river was probably to his stomach. He poured out the dirty water and had to drag the jug further upstream now. He took it and threw it onto his shoulder and carried the large jug up the river side. He soon saw the blood in the river and set the jug down and followed the blood. He soon walked up to a *River Zora and his blue eyes grew with worry seeing one only having seen a drawing of one before and heard horrible stories about them. They were very aggressive and they hated humans, they wanted to kill them since they say the humans pushed them back into the water. He looked down and saw the other bleeding badly and knocked out, which would explain why the river had blood in it. He walked up closer to it feeling bad for it, they were normally in packs and it seemed like he got into a fight with his pack and was left for dead.

Link looked around to make sure no one was around or to see if this was just a trap, it probably was but he didn't care really. He had to help this Zora, he had never had anything bad happen with them, not yet at least. At least the Zora's could walk on land or that would make things more difficult. Link grabbed the other by the shoulder and pulled him out of the water and onto the land. He soon put the jug away from the blood filled water to let it fill before he took the River Zora and put him over his shoulder.

The other was heavy weighed more then he looked in size and he carried him up to his tree house almost falling on the way up and put the other in his bed. He wondered around the house wondering where his first aid kit was and soon cleaned out the wound with water and then bandage him up the best he could. Link soon went back to the river with another jug this time with Epona to help carry and he took the filled one and put it on Epona as she took it back he filled another and carried it back himself. He had a small porch on the backside of his house that was covered with the trees it was like his little hiding hole and he grabbed the tub he used to bathe in and he filled it with the water and then put the Zora in it in case he needed the water. He wasn't sure how they worked so he felt better be safe than sorry.

Link knew this was dangerous but he didn't care, he had to help others it was his way of life he couldn't just live someone to die, unless they gave him a reason to. This Zora never attacked his loved ones or any villages, there hadn't been an attack on any humans in years. The humans figured they either found a home to rest in or they just moved out of Hyrule. Link went back into his home with the back door open so he could watch the other as he got his fire ready for the night. He sat there in a chair with food for himself as he watched the creature outside of his house resting in the tub and he only wondered what he would be like, what would happen once he woke up. He was nervous the other would attack him once he woke up.

Link soon was brushing out his golden hair and taking off his clothes for the night and changing into something lighter to sleep in. With the back door open and the fire going it was a fairly good mix going in his small tree hut. He peeked at the other in the tub one last time before he went into bed and would check on his wounds in the morning.

His eyes opened slowly and his head was facing up into the trees above him, the sun around him but he was in shade from the trees. It was morning, how long had he been out for? He looked around with his aqua blue eyes and he saw he wasn't where he passed out last, the last thing he remember was him passing out on the riverside after swimming for a long time to get away, his people were spotted and hunted by these monsters he had never seen before. He was attacked and spilt from them and now was lost. He looked down and saw he was wrapped up in these cloth things around his body soaked with his blood. He reached down and touched his side and flinched, he was stabbed with swords and speared as well it was all a blurr.

He remembered just swimming down the river and all of a sudden they were attacked in a forest by a group of green little goblins and there jumped into the water out numbering his group quickly was dragged out from the water and beaten before he got away. His group got away as well but now they were separated and he didn't know if he would ever see them again. He blinked a few times and he saw a door to a little house and he started to connect things, someone had seen him and taken him here but why? He slowly got out of the tub with a few gasps of pain before he stood up and grabbed on to a branch for support. Link shuffled in his twin size bed as he heard movement outside his house and he looked up and saw the Zora standing and peeking into his house looking curious and confusion.

*River Zora are known to be aggressive to humans
