Authors Note: Okay, it's come to my attention that I may have messed up
who's what with the goddesses. My consoles are broken from a recent flood
and I haven't played any Zelda games for a long time, so I might have
forgotten. Could ya try to bear with me, and I'll try to fix it in later
chapters? Not like it matters...uh, don't pay attention to that last remark

Link was halfway down Hyrule Field, full of new inspiration, when it hit him: He didn't have the slightest clue as to WHERE he was headed. He knew nothing as to who did it, and if there was any organized gang leading the killing, or even WHY they did it.
"I'm...screwed..." Link muttered. Once again, his emotions were being pressed onto him. A stronger feeling of doubt, disappointment, and fear than he had ever felt before now came to him with a strong passion. "Where am I gonna go..."
He heard laughter. He spun around but saw nothing anywhere near him. Actually, he was probably the only sign of life in this general area of the field for miles.
"What the..."
There was nothing anywhere. Link felt very foolish.
"Well, then...now that I'm over my temporary schizophrenia, I should work on figuring out who—God DAMN it, it's hopeless!" Link slumped onto the ground, a feeling of hopelessness again invading his thoughts.
More laughter rang in his ears.
"WHERE IS IT COMING FROM!" Link screamed into the night. "SHOW YOURSELF!"
Nobody came.
"HELLO!" Link screamed, even louder still. "HELLO!" His eyes darted from left to right, and he turned around to see if someone was there.
"Wait...why am I so paranoid all of a sudden?" He burst into tears. "What's WRONG with me?" He cried out. "Why am I so...what's happening to me?" He stopped crying. "Something's up, I know it...what IS it with me all of a sudden?" He had felt emotions prod him harder than usual at times, but never, NEVER like this...
Then it occurred to him. He knew what he could do.
"Hey! I'm smart now!" He said enthusiastically. "I have Farore's knowledge, I'm sure I can hunt out whoever's planning to kill the king and Zelda!"
He searched deep inside himself, trying to trigger his newly acquired powers. When he succeeded, the last thing he felt was regret as his mind snapped under the great understanding of...everything. He fell to the ground and plunged into darkness.
He awoke the next day, and, guessing by the sun's position, it was well past noon.
"What...what happened last night?" He muttered. He tried to sit up but his head exploded with pain. He groaned and fought at the growing desire to pass back out onto the grass. "My mind...must not be able to take it all in...at one time..." He mumbled. Smiling, he rested back down. "Got to take it easy...ha, I have the mind of a goddess in my head, and yet I was stupid enough to...to...overload...my..." He fainted.
He woke up again in the darkness of night. His head felt much better.
"Okay," he said. "I'll just try to pull up the ability to see who does what next week and get a profile on him..." He concentrated hard, and soon he had all the information he needed.
He set off.
