I stood waiting for you. And then I stopped and had a snack, and then I stood some more. What was taking you so long? How much time did it really take to find your way through the forest maze?
I did it in two hours Roostag-. What was keeping you so long?
As you finally clambered through the last pipe to the forest temple, I could not suppress a laugh. Thankfully, you did not see me yet, nor my smile. Man you looked funny! Obviously you had been lost many many many times. How many times had you started over from the Kokiri forest I wondered?
As you approached, I took no shame in leaping down spectacularly from the overhead forest limb. I nearly laughed again as you stepped back in shock.
"It's ok Roostag-. It's only me, your guardian in this world, Sheik. I wish we could be friends Roostag-, however you have a terrible duty to uphold. And sometimes, you constant talk about saving the world depresses me." I spoke quietly. As you leaned forward, I realized that you hadn't heard a word I said. Hence why you may remember these words. I sighed, it didn't matter really. I was not worth anybody's time, let alone yours Roostag-.
You smiled, happy to see a familiar face. Or maybe it was my beautiful red eyes, I have found that they have that affect on people. I frowned, perhaps I was just a silly girl, with such foolish, silly thoughts.
"Roostag-, I am glad to see you have made it this far. I will teach you a melody now, called the Minuet of the Forest." You didn't move for a while. For a moment, I feared I had put you to sleep! But then I realized that you didn't know what I meant. I pulled out my harp and waited for you to do the same…. Only with your ocarina.
Finally you caught my drift. You're not very bright sometimes Roostag-. But then again, I must remind myself, that you are not as old as you appear. I am in fact dealing with a mere child. But as I gaze into your eyes, I can already see the years melting away, childish ignorance becoming replaced with cruel adulthood. How saddened I was to see this change, but it was for the best of Hyrule. I must remind myself that I am the ruler of this forsaken land before I commit a terrible act by pledging my love to an 4 year old.
Now it was your turn to stand there, wondering just what I was thinking about. I pretended not to notice, because since you are so young you could not possibly understand my feelings. Nobody could, for my feelings are too complicated to be understood by others.
Suddenly I remembered posting a sign earlier in my days. It read "There's a tree with bees in it!" I informed Roostag- about this, and he looked slightly confused about this information.
Your eyes, I could tell, you wanted to say more to me, to talk to me, to say words, to speak them, with your mouth. I did too.
However, I knew that I could afford no such luxury at this stage in the game. So, I stepped backwards, throwing a smoke bomb as I yelled "Ninja vanish!" However, my words were lost in the smoke, and before you knew it, I was gone.
Oh Roostag-, please stay safe. I can only watch you from afar now.
