"Alfonzo... I just want to say thanks. For all the training, drills, and fun we had over the past 4 years while I was your apprentice. You were the best teacher I could have had."

"It's not over until the Princess recognizes you Link. You're still my apprentice. But... thanks."

Link smiled. "It's nothing. I owe you way more than a thanks." Link strolled towards the castle.

"Link! Hehehe... We're an hour early. Wander around town for a bit, ok?"

"Alfonzo, you were yelling at me for being late!" Link sighed as he started to wander the town. The first person he met started quizzing him on everything he knew. Link just left. As Link wandered, he noticed not only treasure chests, but cuckoos on top of the houses. After the strange events in Aboda, Link decided not to question it. The first house Link entered was also the last; the resident got really mad and kicked him out. He made sure any other houses he entered were shops.

After finally finding a shop, Link entered, hoping to buy some candy for Issac with the ten rupees Ayala found in the rocks. He was kicked out after the shopkeeper said, "This isn't a place for kids, kid. Now run home to mommy!"

"What is up with these people?" Link asked himself as he rubbed his head. Link tried to climb up to the top of the wall surrounding the town, but it was blocked with large rocks. "And this town is weird too." Link decided.

Link finally found an actual shop and stepped inside.

"Why, hellooooooooooooooo! Welcome to my store! D'you want any of my fabulous items?"

Link gazed at the items. "Ok, let's see... Wait. 80 rupees for a shield! And 100 for postcards! WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS SOCIETY!"

"Inflation."

"Ah, I give up!" Link left the shop, and walked towards the entrance to the castle. He was met with the strangest sight he had seen yet.

A man in a red bodysuit and a large red top hat walked up, moving his arms like a train. "Hey hey howdy mister!"

"Who are you?" Link asked wide-eyed.

"Oh I'm just the postman! Call me Postman; all my friends do! You're Link, right?"

"HOW DO YOU KNOW MY NAME?!"

"Never mind that; I have a letter for you! I'll read it out lou- wait, that's not what we do anymore! YOU get to read the letter! Here you go!" Link grabbed the letter."Well my work here is done! See you around!" The postman train-walked away.

Link opened the letter. It read, 'Dear Link, Our new postal system has started running today. If you're reading this letter, it means my new postman is doing his job right. He's as hardworking and efficient as they come! So be nice to him, won't you? We'll be in touch again if anything comes up. - The Postmaster.'

"Umm... Couldn't the postman have just told me this? What was the point of this letter?"

"Why hellooooo there!" the postbox said. "You want to mail anything?"

Link screamed , then ran back to Alfonzo.

"Just in time, Link. It's time! Why are you screaming?" Link hid trembling behind the train. "Oh come on, man up! You are going to be an engineer! And it's been an hour, so you need to head to the castle. Good luck!"

Link realized that it had been an hour, even if it was a quick one. It was time. Link headed out to the Castle, with Alfonzo staying behind.
