"Tell me, how long have you lived now, sheikah?"
"Maybe a few thousand years," The sheikah answered, settling down on one of the inner platforms of the pool. The third creation did not rise to meet his eyes or show its true form.
"You do not all ready know the answers you seek?"
"Sadly, all I know is the ancient text delivered to me by my elders, to them by the Goddesses."
"Ah, not even the Goddesses know all the information of the worlds. They merely know the heavens and the surface. You are smart to seek out the refuse of the underworld," The third creation said. The sheikah could hear it moving below him, but he made no move to the outer ledges. "They do not bother themselves with Their creations."
"Their creations?"
"Yes. Like you, like your hero or Their princess. No, They have no shame. They create the land, give it laws and create beings to uphold the laws."
"And if your kind wasn't around, we wouldn't need to so often!"
"You need us to make your purpose. If you had no laws to uphold, then you would be for naught. As the blind goat said to the horse, 'I was given a tail to keep away the flies, but I sooner have no tail and no flies.' Alas, you cannot have that at all."
"Fine. Is that all you know of the triforce?"
"Of course not. I know that the three pieces must be together in order to be controlled. One without the other will just send the crazed into a spiral. The master will not be for long. Death comes swiftly."
The sheikah nodded at this; there were three more years before the hero was returned to this plane. None of the creations seemed to doubt their deaths as of yet, none so willing to explain the feeling so readily either. He sighed, knowing that there would be no information here for him about his charge.
"You are created, no? Or were you merely tied to do his bidding?"
"I am created to do evil's bidding. The master has plans to take, take, take and never give back. I keep the waters here, for fear of what he will do. I will be pleased when Death does visit. I can release this place."
"You do not care for your master or his plans?"
"The darkness he has created has come without reason. Though, there was all ready darkness forming before he came. We creations, we must follow our line of destiny. Death comes for us soon." The creation sunk further away and the sheikah enlightened and frustrated all the more left as well.
review.
oh, and the line about the goat, that comes animal farm.
