Update: I tweaked the story a bit from its original format because some of the wording was wrong and I was much younger when I wrote it. I changed it very little, though. :D

Konnichiwa! This is a very small story. Sorry I didn't make it longer. Well, I hope you enjoy it.

D* I do not own Zelda or any of the characters mentioned here.

A generous streak of light beamed down on the ancient yet powerful Sword of Time. Finally, after much adventure, the priceless relic had been returned to its rightful place. Now, it stood alone, all but the Hylian and the glow of his fairy remained in the hidden room of the Temple of Time. An icy breeze seemed to have escaped into the temple and Navi shivered slightly.

Link stared back at his companion who had been with him throughout his long journey. Surely, she would stay with him. She had known that his childhood dream had always been to have a fairy. A friend like his Kokiri kinsmen; one that would make him feel equal to them.

But he was a Hylian, nonetheless, had he not learned anything in his journey? Had it all been in vain? No. He knew that he had to begin to discover who he really was, and where he really belonged.

His mother…his mother had left him in the joy filled and bright Kokiri forest for a reason. Would he return? Or would he restart his mission? Would his fairy stay with him?

"Link," she began as she flew up halfway into the beam of light. "I have to go back to the Great Deku Tree. I can't continue here any longer. Go where you have to and do what you need to. You don't need me anymore."

His eyes were well drained of hope as the fairy traveled up the streak of light and disappeared. He turned to leave.

A small tear escaped as he left the temple. In this world, he knew one thing for sure; he was alone.
