EPILOGUE
A week later, thanks to the efforts of Mark, his friends, and Link, who was on leave from guard duty in Hyrule, the Dimensional Temple was again rebuilt, and again Mark stood before the elder.
"You called me, your honor?"
"Yes, my child," said the elder, grinning. "It appears Nayru has something to tell you."
Nayru walked over to him and whispered in his ear, "I'm going to be having a child."
Mark jumped in surprise. "Whaaaat?"
The elder smiled. "Yes, it appears that your love cannot be contained, and now it shall be passed down."
"That's… that's wonderful." Mark said, giving Nayru a quick kiss.
"However," the elder continued, "I do not feel it safe for Nayru to remain here. She is in too much danger."
"So what do you suggest?" Mark asked.
"Take her back with you, and live together. Raise your child with the highest level of love, and all will be well."
"Can we ever come back and visit?" Mark asked.
The elder nodded. "That cell phone will allow you to return here at any time."
"Hey you guys!" said Paul, running in behind them along with Marin. "I heard the big news!"
"Yeah…" Mark said. "I guess you guys are going back to Koholint?"
Paul and Marin exchanged glances. "Actually, we decided we've had enough of that place, and we're going to come back to Brooklyn with you."
"Sweet!"
Nayru whispered something in Mark's ear.
"Oh, right…" he turned to his friends again. "We were wondering… when we have our kid… if you'd want to be the godparents… maybe?"
Marin smiled. "We'd love to!"
"You should get going." Said the elder. "The door to your right will take you back to your dimension. Stay safe, and always remember you have sanctuary here!"
"Thank you, your honor! And goodbye!" Mark exclaimed. Taking Nayru's hand, the four friends disappeared into the swirling vortex.
THE END!!!
