The Goddess' voices went throught the temple. Telling of a hero that would defeat her. And one day a hero did come. He walked through the temple with complete confidence. His sword in one hand and his shield on his other arm. If only Lady Nabooru wasn't taken but the witches, she could have seen this hero.
The young girl that had been watching him from afar was, very interseted in the hero. He reminded her of someone. Someone she once knew. A friend maybe? She had been trapped in this temple of seven years and she had no memory of her life before. Lady Nabooru had taken her in and allowed her to serve her. But, she was never allowed to leave the temple grounds or the desert.
She watched as the hero left the temple in a swirl of musical notes and beautiful yellow lights. Oh how she wished she could leave just as easy as that. She looked arpund and the temple seemed to have some peace to it and the guards then rushed in.
" Where is Lady Nabooru?" asked the General. The girl was silent. She never spoke to anyone but Lady Nabooru.
The general rose her hand to hit the girl across the face for not answering.
" Stop! You strike her, and you will lose your title as general." It was Nabooru.
Nabooru opened her arms to the girl and welcomed her. " Sweet Raven. I'm so sorry I left you alone. Are you all right? "
Raven ran to Nabooru, crying and hugged her. Raven was so happy to see her, and she then knelt if front of her. She knew that beening a servent, she wasn't really suppose to show your owner and emotion toward them. But Nabooru had been differnt with Raven. She had shown Raven how to cook, clean, fight, and she even tough her how to use the magic to control sand and mystic magic. Raven was honored to be Nabooru's student and servent.
" Lady Nabooru," said the general, " we came looking for you at the temple. We had been looking all over the desert and the Haunted Wasteland. We saw a man coming here and we followed. We lost track of him in a sand storm. And we eventually ended up here. And then we found this rat in your temple."
Nabooru walked over to the general and slammed her down. The woman looked at Nabooru. Her eyes wer full of anger and rage.
" You are to never speak of my servent like that again. She is loyal and a very good friend. She is the protecter of my temple and she is always welcome here. She can come and go as she pleases. You have no authority over her. " Nabooru made the order very clear for the general to understand.
The general go tto her knees and bowed her head. She then moved to her soliders, and motioned for them to leave. Raven sat on the steps of the small stair case in the entrance of the temple. Nabooru can ans sat next to her and smiled.
" Are you all right, Raven? "
" Yes, ma'am. I'm very happy you have returned. Did the hero save you from the witches?"
Nabooru nodded. " He said he would even come and visit so, we may see him one day and you will get to meet him."
Raven nodded. She stood and bowed to her Mistress.
"Would you like anythign to eat? Or drink?"
" Just a good rest, Raven. Thank you."
Raven nodded and then bowed. She then walked to her chambers and rested on her bed, hoping one day to thank the man that had saved her Mistress from Ganon's servece.
