Chapter Seven: Recovery
----------
Link slowly opened his eyes and stared at the ceiling. It was a strange color and looked like hundreds of stars floating through space. Confused he blinked a couple of times. He was in a medium-sized room with dark sparkling walls. Link was lying on a white marble ledge and as he looked to one side, he realized where he was. Next to him was a large clear pool of water, over which was floating a beautiful woman with red hair, her body wrapped in dark green vines. She smiled as she leaned in towards him and whispered, "Welcome back, Hero"
Link slowly sat up and looked at his tunic. It was still bloody from the battle with the Sellswords but he could no longer feel any of his wounds, even his arm was fully healed.
"We were so worried about you" came a soft voice as Link turned to see two of his friends. Malon was sitting next to him, she was wearing a cream colored gown with her long hair pulled back. Impa, an older woman with silver hair and a strong body lightly dressed in dark blue and silver armor, was standing next to her. Impa is a Sheikiah, and also used to be the bodyguard to Princess Zelda, daughter of King Harkinian, the true ruler of Hyrule.
"We didn't think you were going to make it," added Impa as she pointed to Navi, "Navi brought us to you, you were badly hurt, and we didn't think you were going to make it" she explained "but then Navi mentioned the Great fairies, so we brought you here, hoping your friendship with them would help" she added as she picked up a stained cloth from the ground and began wiping some blood off her hands.
"Thank you so much" Malon said as she bowed to the Great Fairy who was still hovering next to Link.
"Anything for the Goddesses' Hero" The fairy smiled and with a giggle disappeared into the depths of the pool.
Link started to stand up when he remembered why he was there in the first place: Nera! He looked worriedly at Navi who had resumed her position near Link's head.
"Nera left, Link, after you collapsed" Navi explained.
Startled, Malon looked from Navi to Link and asked " Nera is back! Since when! What does she have to do with this?"
Navi briefly explained what happened as Link nodded in agreement. However, when Navi continued her story after the point where he passed out, Link looked at her in surprise. Navi told of Nera's encounter with Gannondorf and how he had drew her away. Link and Malon looked stunned as Navi finished her story.
"Princess?" Malon said as she tried to imagine her old friend the way Navi described her. "That can't be right"
"Well that's what I heard" Navi replied
"Link you have to find Nera! Who knows what Gannondorf has planned?" Malon said to Link who nodded.
"Unfortunately that isn't an option," Impa argued " you can't get anywhere near Gannondorf until you have awakened all the sages! There are two left. Get them and you can get into Gannondorf's castle," she added.
"Right!" replied Navi as she then faced Link " before we attempt the next temple we need to upgrade your bow, lets head out to Lake Hylia and see if we can find the fire arrows!"
"And we'll head to Karkariko and see if we can find a way into the next temple" replied Impa as Malon stood next to her.
"Sounds like a plan" added Malon "lets go!"
Link nodded and, after gathering up his weapons, headed out of the Great Fairy's realm.
