Thanks for the reviews everybody. I can't thank you enough. By the way, this one (as I'm sure you can tell) is very short, but trust me, the next one will be longer.

Disclamer: I haven't done this for awhile. Oh well. I don't own LoZ

13th Entry: Good News

September 1st, the 7th year in the reign of King Ganondorf I

You'll never believe it, I actually have good news for once!

The condition on the ranch hasn't changed at all, "Mister Ingo" (He insists that I call him that) is still on his little powertrip, and he's expecting that Ganon will come any day in order to see if Epona is strong enough to be his "personal" horse. On a sidenote, he's started letting people come to the ranch and pay to ride some of the horses for awhile. Not very interesting, I know, but at least it's letting me have some interaction with the outside world. But anyway, like I said, I have good news.

Yesterday evening I was putting the animals in the stable as usual, when I heard something far off in the distance. I looked in the direction I had heard it, towards the forest, and suddenly the forest just seemed to get, I don't know, lighter. It was like a cloud that had been hanging over the forest was suddenly lifted, and the sun hit the forest for the first time in seven years. At first I thought I might be having another dream, so I pinched myself. Trust me, I was awake. I know it's not much to go on, but still I feel it's a good sign.

Umm, somebody's at the door, and Ingo's yelling at me to see who it is. I guess I'll write back later.

Malon Astira

Hehe, I wonder who's at the door...

Oh, and to answer a question I got: I wanted to find a last name for Malon because it would seem like she would write her full name at the end of each diary entry. I wanted one that seemed different, I guess, and in a book I was reading, one of the characters had one that was similar to this. I liked it, so I used it. No real significance, though.
