Chapter V

Zelda

"What do we do?" Link asked me.

I stared off into the distance, thinking. "I don't know, Link. I really don't."

Suddenly, he started. "I still have the ocarina Saria gave me!"

"It won't open the Door of Time," I replied flatly.

"No, but it will let me talk to Saria." He pulled a brown ocarina out of one of his pouches. He raised it to his lips, closed his eyes, and played a short song. He waited briefly before stepping away to talk. I couldn't hear what he said, but he seemed upset. When he came back, he seemed to be forcing back tears.

"What is it, Link?"

He shook his head. "Nothing. Forget it."

I opened my mouth, but he held up his hand, and I shut it again.

"Saria and the other Sages have agreed to open the Door of Time for us and give us transportation to the Sacred Realm. So we should go."

I nodded slowly, still trying to figure out what was bothering him so much. Before I could say anything else, he turned towards the Temple of Time and strode off, leaving me to follow. Which I did.
