CIL: hello again everyone, seems I did fairly well on my first try. And Zelda will come soon don't worry, but think. Link has 7 years of mature knowledge he has to process it first. He doesn't really understand love but he knows what it feels like.

Again that night Link awoke from that very same dream. He was scared yet also angry he let out a grunt sounding sigh and walked outside.
(POV)
Where should I go today? I have nothing really to do, today is the second night of no moon so Zelda is busy with dictation. Perhaps I should go see Malon. No it's not a good idea, she didn't get a memory of what I have done for this kingdom. Well maybe I should get this dream analyzed, to the Gerudo it is.
In my travels I have learnt that the Gerudo have a unique way of interpreting dreams. And being all women they should know a bit about what this dream means. The Gerudo women aren't all that good looking as some of the adults say, there are a few in the crowds that catch my attention but then I am a kid these guys…uh girls, are like teenagers and adults. Bo time to dwell on this I should really get going.
I hoped of my balcony and landed softly on the ground below, where I stood up to have Saria right in my face. I back of and tripped over a root of my house. Saria just looked at me funny then giggled, she then stood up straight and circled her foot on the ground. What is she up to? She was never shy when I wasn't adventuring. She has her hands behind her back, is she hiding some thing from me? Maybe I should get up off the ground and stand up.
After I stood up I looked at her straight in the eyes. She seemed to melt but then got her courage. She held out a red flower, violet stems came out of the middle and the stem had one thorn. To me this was a gift but what she told me after was what shocked me.
"That is the Kokiri Rose" she said. "it is used to symbolize ones feelings for another. On my regards I wish you to accept this. If you so decline then please use it to propose to Zelda"
Her words truly stunned me, I couldn't move, not even blink. I know she'll be heart broken if I decline this. But she knows that I will grow older and she will stay the same. Why does she do this to me and herself.
"I am sorry" I said. "But this is too soon Saria, I am declining but keep this rose. Come back when these feelings grow, I don't think you nor I know the deepness of what you are asking" This should only get my feet wet, I need to see if Zelda will accept me first but I don't think a rose will help.
"I understand" she said with a tear to her eye, I was barely able to see the tears before she ran off into the woods. Perhaps she wanted me to follow, perhaps she wanted to be alone. What chance do I take? I'll see the Gerudo, perhaps this is part of the dream…
The road to the Gerudo is a lot safer now that Ganondorf's evil has been nullified, but that also confuses me. If he was banished in the future doesn't that mean that he should still exist here, now? This always confused me, is this some alternate dimension, I swear it is I mean Saria finally seems to understand the basics of love, I am trying to marry into the royals, Mido had let me get the last prank in. this place is not the one I left.
The Gerudo fortress seemed busy today. I should have known they'd change too. They hold exotic dances on the nights of the second moon. The sign posts told me so. Nabooru was the star dancer by the signs. All the Gerudo know me here, thanks to this piece of paper. I cam up to Nabooru who was kind of in the middle of practice of her routine, even for I kid that had little understanding of what exotic means I think I have an understanding of it as I watch her. My troubles feel like there lifting away, her movements make me feel like dancing with her. I snapped myself out of it before I forgot what I was doing.
"Um, Miss Nabooru" I broke her dance and she looked at me, at first it looked she was about to fume at me but she then picked me up and gave me a big hug, much like a mother.
"Oh, it's you that boy. Link was it? Oh how have you been, I have missed you so"
Ok she was really freaking me out now, I think my theory of the alternate dimension is starting to look a whole lot more reasonable.
"Oh my child, what brings you here today. Your not here to see me dance in the show are you?"
"Uh, no" I said. "I am here for a dream analysis"
"Oh, a dream analysis. Well you've come to the right place, I'll go get Naruya"
"What? Naruya, she is the shrink? I thought you were the best"
"I was but I was training her in the back ground, come on inside come meet her"
I was kinda nervous about this. The Gerudo are never really friendly to a male on first try. I walked in anyway what's the worse that could happen?
"Whoa!" slipped out of my mouth when I saw the new kid, well teenager I guess you could call her. She must have been special she had more gold on her then the Princess. She turned and looked at me, her violet eye shadow really accented her blue eyes. Her thin curving figure was relieving somehow.
"Sister, what is this male doing here, scat him"
A snob should have known.
"Sister hold your tongue, this boy is the bravest we the Gerudo have seen, he was able to get past us with ease"
"Then maybe you should have had tighter guard"
I was getting angry at this girl I wouldn't trust her dream judgement even if it had good fortune in it.
"All this boy wants is a dream analysis can you do that for him"
"Oh, this boy has dreams" she now was giving me an uneasy look, I wouldn't call it like a fake attraction but she seemed to glare at me in a way close to and evil stare. "Come sit down boy tell me what it is about"
"I'll be out practicing my dance now, you two get along"
And with that my life was now in the hands of this girl. I sure hope she tells the truth.
I told her everything from the rose to the kiss, she seemed so in tune and interested with the story, but then again she probably has to be to get an accurate result. In the end she told me to pay attention to her lips and her eyes, to try and see the emotion she is depicting. I f I can get that then she said that she might be able identify what it means, so it looks like another restless night for me.
