Through the Eyes of a Gerudo

A/n: This is just a random thought, but what happens when Link plays the Sun's song? Does it look like he just stands there the entire day/night?

**Nabooru: Still 5 yrs, Gannon, 3 weeks**
Night falls over the Gerudo Fortress. This is the first full moon since the birth of the new King. A campfire is going in the center of the archery range. Around it is a special council. It is up to them to decide on the name for the new male. The head of the council is the elder Nabooru. Little Nabooru (I'll call her Nabby for clarity) is sitting next to her. She will have to learn about these for when she assumes command under the king.
"Let us begin." Nabooru says. Nabby looks up at her mom.
"I wanna hold the baby." She says. This draws chuckles from just about everyone there. The council consists of the heads of each section of the fortress. The only one not laughing is Nabby. Allanyan, the High Priestess, is holding the little King. She smiles at Nabby.
"Sorry little one, we can't allow that." She says. Nabby pouts, but doesn't argue. The group gets serious. Nabooru becomes all business.
"It is time for the King to finally have a name." She says. She holds her hands up to the full moon. "Lady Goddesses, We call on your wisdom." Her right hand indicates the fire. "Lady Din, bless him with your power," Her left hand points to the horizon. "Lady Farore, bless him with your courage," Her hands go back up to the full moon. "Lady Nayru, bless him with your wisdom." Everyone stands up now. Nabby is watching the baby carefully. Allanyan has put him down on a special blanket. It looks like he has grown a bit.....he is about the size of a one year old. Nabby looks up to where they all are looking.
"Oh lady goddesses, it is time for the King of the Gerudo to have a name! We call on you! Let us hear the child's name!" For a moment, it is silence. Nabby finds herself holding her breath.
"Gannondorf." They all turn to where the sound came from. The baby has grown to about Nabby's height, and is standing up. Nabooru looks down proud.
"The name has been called out. And Gannondorf it shall be." She says. The naming council smiles. Nabby is confused.
"But, I thought he was a baby......" she whispers. Nabooru gives her a pat on the head.
"We'll go through that later." She says. Just then, the fire goes out. Everyone stares at each other in the pitch black.
"Mamma?" Nabby finally asks, "Who turn the light out?" Nabooru doesn't answer her. The others there are getting nervous. Nothing like this has ever happened during the naming ceremony. So what could it mean?

**Next day**
"You never answered me!!" Nabby yells at her mom. Nabooru sighs. Time to get this overwith.
"I can't answer you." She says. "I don't know. OK?" Nabby gets mad.
"You could have just said that." She says. Nabooru shakes her head.
"Go practice." Nabby takes off to the archery range. Nabooru goes back to where the priestesses are. "They better have an answer for last night." She mutters.
**archery range**
When Nabby arrives, Gannondorf is already there. He looks over at Nabby, then turns to Relan.
"Why does she wear white when everyone else has to wear violet!?" He demands. Relan stays calm.
"White is the symbol of a master. She wears it because on her first tries she scored bulls-eyes in the range. And she hasn't missed yet." Relan explains. Gannondorf eyes Nabby a bit.
"Think you're good, huh?" he says. Nabby just stands up straight. Then jumps back as he lunges with a scimitar. She quickly pulls out her own, and they start fighting. Relan doesn't bother breaking it up. After about an hour, both combatants are exhausted and finally let up.
"Not bad for first try." Relan says. "Either of you. Looks like we have a good command coming." Gannondorf gives Nabby the 'I'm high and mighty' look. Nabby doesn't rise to it though.
"Relan?" Nabby asks. "Can I learn horseback riding now?" Relan's face falls.
"Sorry kiddo. All the horses are being used right now. I don't have any to teach you with." Nabby groans. Gannon smirks.
"Bet I'll learn before you." He says. Nabby growls. Gannondorf walks off with a smirk.
"It's almost time for lunch Nabooru." Relan says. "So why don't you go wash up. That was a pretty intense swordfight you two had."
"K. And check your pocket." Nabby starts to walk off, when she feels a hand on her shoulder.
"OK, smartarse. Give me back the medal." Relan says laughing. Nabooru hands it back, then runs off to her room. Relan shakes her head. "How does she keep doing that?"
