THE LEGEND OF ZELDA: THE CHOSEN'S MASK

ACT TWO, SCENE SIX: TALKING AROUND THE CAMPFIRE

After the shelters were set, fire was made and food cooked to perfection, everyone said, "Let's eat!" Saria found some berries in the nearby bushes. Zelda caught some fish near the shooting gallery a little ways. Saria and Zelda then made some soup. Colette found the firewood from various parts of the swamp.

As they were eating, it was Mido that started the conversations. "Mmmm. The soup tastes good, Saria. Just like the soup you always make back home."

"Home?" Colette said to herself. She was starting to miss her home, her family, and her books. Link noticed that Colette stopped eating her soup.

"Hey Colette," Link asked. "What's up?" Colette couldn't give an answer.

"She stopped eating when Mido said the word, home," Zelda observed.

"Oh," Mido said. "Colette's homesick that's home." He continued to slurp his soup and stopped. "Where is that exactly?"

"Yeah," Saria said. "Where is your home, Colette?"

Colette just sat there. Finally she spoke. "Sylvarant…"

Everyone sat there silently. "Sylvarant?" Mido asked. "What is that, a nearby town or something?"

"I knew something was up," Link said. "She isn't from Termina."

"Are you saying she's from Hyrule?" Zelda asked.

"No," Link replied. "She's not from their either."

"Then where is this Sylvarant?" asked Mido.

"Another world, probably," Link replied.

"How did you know that?" Mido asked.

"Mido, I've been everywhere," Link replied. "I've never seen an outfit that Colette wore in any of my travels."

Everyone except Colette looked puzzled (because she knew what he was talking about). Who ever heard of a world existing outside Hyrule or Termina?

"Another world," Mido scoffed. "That's ridiculous! Who ever heard of someone coming from another world? I mean, there is such a thing of coming from another tribe, another town, another village, another race but another world?"

"Now that you mention it," Saria started. "I have never seen those clothes before, either. And charkhams were used eons ago. I doubt anyone would use them in this day and age."

"Well, Colette," Zelda asked. "Is this true?"

Colette looking down on the ground, everyone knew that Link was right. She was from another world.

"You still haven't answered my question that I asked you in the temple," Link said. "What did you mean when you said "So you have a title as well?"

"Why do you all want to know?" Colette snapped. "Why do you want to know everything in my life? Isn't it enough that I'm here?"

"Well, it's hard to trust someone when you don't even know the person," Zelda answered. "Either you tell us or we'll find out sooner or later."

Colette took a deep breath, and answered, "I go by the title of Chosen of Mana."

"Chosen of what?" Mido asked. "Chosen of Mana? What is that exactly?"

"Since we're not from her world, we wouldn't know what it is," Link said. "Colette, why don't you explain to us what a chosen is exactly."

Colette started off:

"Once upon a time, there existed a giant tree that was the source of mana. A war, however, cause this tree to wither away and a hero's life was sacrificed in order to take its place. Grieving over the loss, the goddess, Martel, the one that created the earth, disappeared unto the heavens. The goddess left the angels with this edict: "You must wake me, for if I should sleep, the world shall be destroyed." The angels bore the Chosen One, who headed toward the tower that reached up unto the heavens. And that marked the beginning of the regeneration of the world."

"There are a few questions I like to ask," Mido said. "For one, what is mana?"

"In our world, mana is even more important to life than water," Colette replied. "Without it, the land will die. Mana is the source material which composes everything. At least that's what I've been taught."

"And the tower that you told us about," Saria asked. "What is that?"

"The tower is called The Tower of Salvation," Colette replied. "The Tower of Salvation represents salvation which would bring a golden age of tranquility to Sylvarant."

"What's wrong with your world now?" Link asked.

"It's being overruled by desians," Colette replied.

"What are those," Mido asked.

"People who bring pain and misery into the world," Colette said. "It's my job to succeed in the world regeneration to bring peace back to Sylvarant."

"Just like Link bringing peace back to Hyrule," Zelda replied. "You are both noble people fighting for a noble cause."

Colette never heard a complement of being a chosen. This was the first time Colette ever had someone to talk to.

"Talking to you all gives me such a relief," Colette said. "Thank you for giving me a chance to give me a chance to get some things off my chest."

"You are very welcome, Colette," Zelda answered. "We never hold things here."

Colette looked at the ground knowing that she never told them everything…

"I think I'll turn in," Colette said, heading to the shelters.

"Alright, good night," Link said after her.

After she left, Mido replied, "That Colette is something else. From another world and all…"

All of them agreed and went to sleep. When they got up, they set their sights to Snowhead.

Now our group is heading to snowhead where they will try to release another giant from bondage. Will they succeed? Please R&R and find out!
