This is VERY short... but it is the end of the happenings of Termina... FINALLY!

Chapter 10
That is the Question

Link stood by himself in front of his mirror. He stood perfectly still, staring at his reflection. His wicked and lazy reflection.

He narrowed his eyes toward the vile person staring back at him.

"To be, or not to be- that is the question:

Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer

The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune

Or to take arms against a sea of troubles

And by opposing end them. To die, to sleep-

No more-and by a sleep to say we end

The heartache, and the thousand natural shocks

That flesh is heir to. 'Tis a consummation

Devoutly to be wished. To die, to sleep-

To sleep-perchance to dream: ay, there's the rub,

For in that sleep of death what dreams may come

When we have shuffled off this mortal coil,

Must give us pause. There's the respect

That makes calamity of so long life.

For who would bear the whips and scorns of time,

Th' oppressor's wrong, the proud man's contumely

The pangs of despised love, the law's delay,

The insolence of office, and the spurns

That patient merit of th' unworthy takes,

When he himself might his quietus make

With a bare bodkin? Who would fardels bear,

To grunt and sweat under a weary life,

But that the dread of something after death,

The undiscovered country, from whose bourn

No traveller returns, puzzles the will,

And makes us rather bear those ills we have

Than fly to others that we know not of?

Thus conscience does make cowards of us all,

And thus the native hue of resolution

Is sicklied o'er with the pale cast of thought,

And enterprise of great pitch and moment

With this regard their currents turn awry

And lose the name of action. - Soft you now,

The fair Midna! - Nymph, in thy orisons

Be all my sins remembered."

Link ran to Midna and hugged her tightly.

"My lord," Midna said pushing him away from her, "I must know."

"Know what? Thou art a woman and must, in turn, know nothing at all. A woman who knows anything at all looses all the luster in her eyes and the plump of her cheek. She is a bore, an old maid. She becomes as dry and withered as the pages of the books to which she so desperately cleaves."

"My Lord," Midna said trying not to slap him, "I am here to-" She stopped when she saw Link staring at her in such a loving way. "To…"

"To what?" Link asked, still holding onto her waist gently.

"To…" Midna stumbled over her words and her thoughts until the doors of his chamber flew open revealing a disgruntled and alarmed Horatio.

"What is it?" Link asked as Horatio fell to his knees in exhaustion.

"We're being attacked my lord," he said through gasps.

Midna let go of Link's arms as he knelt by his friend.

"By whom?"

"Monsters sire, from Hyrule. They bear the symbol of the dark Wizard Ganon."

"Where?"

"On the edge of Hyrule fields and the Plains of Termina."

"Their numbers?"

"Twice our own."

"So the threats have become action," Link said looking out his window toward the fields. "Send word to the King of Hyrule to send troops to our aid." He looked at Midna, "I suggest you find a safe place to stay until this is over."

"I will stay with you," Midna said grabbing Link's arm, "I am the safest with you."

"I cannot allow it."

"Why ever not?" Midna asked.

Link paused for a moment, "Because I-I don't want to be the reason you get hurt."

Midna nodded and let go of him.

Link took the chance and left his chambers to find his mother.

Queen Maria was overseeing the cleaning of the blood on her bedroom floor when Link came in.

"My son," the Queen said with a hint of anger in her voice, "I hope you have repented for this foul deed."

"Aye mother, I have," Link said taking her aside, "the Dark Wizard Ganon has launched his long awaited attack and I will be going to battle."

"You can't," Queen Maria said holding her son's face in her hands, "You will be killed!"

Link held his mother's hands in his own, "I promise I will return."

"I have lost my dear husband already this year, do not put more pain upon my heart by having me loose you."

Link gently kissed his mother's forehead, "I will return. I swear upon my father's grave."

Queen Maria nodded while blinking back her tears.

Link turned and left the room. It did not take long for the troops of Termina to assemble and begin building their defenses. The tents were put up and come early evening, the troops were prepared for anything.

I have to memorize that speech... ugh... So let me explain it. No there is to much, let me sum up.

Link wants to just die... but he is scared to find out what would happen if he died (where he would go, if it were better to be alive over dead etc.)
Wow... that is basically it .

'kay so Queen Maria has let Link go to war... now we move on to Princess Zelda... (It's been too long :D)
