My name is (Y/N), I am a (h/l) (h/c) haired girl. I am an Hylian, but I had to move in Ordon, a small village in the forest, a little far from the Castle Town. I helped the villagers and they helped me back by giving me food and supplies.
~Day one~
I was now at the barn, helping Fado and Link, the beautiful sapphire eyed boy...'No, I don't like him like that, of course not, plus he likes Ilia, not me...'. It's been two years since I moved in and it's been more than a year since I began to have a crush on Link. While I was thinking, I didn't see Fado coming towards me. "(Y/N)!" He called, snapping me out of my thoughts.
"Oh sorry Fado, I didn't hear you." I chuckled lightly, rubbing the back of my head.
He sighed "Link finished, you can go milk the goats." I simply nodded and got up, going inside the barn, feeling someone's gaze on my back. Brushing it off, I stepped in the barn.
Once done, I went back to Fado, who gave me some goat cheese and bread. I thanked him and went back home, greeting everyone on the way with a smile. My house was out of Ordon, near the spring and Link's house. Speaking of him, I saw him training with Rusl.
Truth be said, I've always wanted to learn how to wield a sword, but I was good enough at archery and I also had my own bow and arrows. I stopped to watch them smiling and admiring Link, I giggled when he was being pushed, falling on the ground. I came over him and helped him up, smiling and I turned to Rusl. "Hello Rusl, can I join you?...I've always wanted to learn how to wield a sword..."
He smiled, giving me his training sword. "Here (Y/N), Link, care to show her some basic slashes?" He turned to Link who nodded. I grabbed the sword, swirling it around and grinning, then I turned to Link and watched him making some slashes on a training dummy.
I looked carefully his moves and then it was my turn. I hit it a few times, like Link did .
I kept training for at least three hours and learned quite a lot for a start, I was a bit exhausted after all that exercise ! But before I could leave, Link asked me to show him my archery skills. I smiled and agreed, getting home, then grabbed my bow and arrows. I came back shortly to Link's house.
He had put some targets on the trees around. I took place and drew an arrow, then focused on one target and hit it in the centre. I hit the others in the centre as well. I turned to see a surprised Like, then tilted my head to the side and started to giggle then it turned to a laugh "Goddesses! You look so surprised!"
Link grinned, shaking his head, I sighed softly yet happily and grabbed my stuff. "I'll see you tomorrow Link!" I smiled and waved, walking home. 'This day was amazing! Well...like everyday, but I don't know what happens tomorrow' I thought to myself, which people often found weird as some don't have the same idea of life.
~Day two~
I woke up by someone calling me. I slid on a (F/C) shirt with my usual shorts and corset. Before going out, I grabbed an apple and started to eat it as I made my way to the door. I opened it and smiled at Ilia.
"Hi Ilia! Do you need something?" She nodded and grabbed my wrist, pulling me out.
"I need you to help me washing Epona!" She smiled brightly as she dragged me to the spring.
"...But Link might need her for the work at the barn..." She shook her head.
"Don't worry, he'll wake up soon."
As I was dragged, I ate my apple. Once there, I smiled at the sight of the springs water. Let's say that I always loved water, and if I hadn't any responsibilities, I would swim all day! But it's life, and I have to take care of things.
As I were in my own bubble, I didn't notice that I were walking towards the little waterfall. I suddenly snapped out of your thoughts when I finally hit the water and made a little sound, alerting Ilia.
"(Y/N)?" She then saw my state: my clothes drenched in water and my hair as well. She started to laugh at me.
"...Stop laughing, that's not funny..." I sighed, crossing my arms and shaking my head, hair going on my face, I was smiling though. I pushed my hair back and walked towards Ilia then ruffled her hair, chuckling. We both began to groom Epona.
I was humming a song when I saw a figure coming towards the mare. "Good morning Link." I smiled softly, stopping grooming his horse.
"Morning (Y/N)... why are your clothes and hair soaked?" he asked.
"Oh, I accidentally walked into the waterfall and fell in the water." I chuckled, rubbing the back of my head. He laughed lightly, smiling and turned to Ilia, saying that he needed Epona for the barn. I stepped back as he climbed on his mare and made his way back to the village.
I went home, seeing a note on my door "Meet me near the small lake behind the watermill. -Link-" I smiled and entered my house, drying my hair and braiding it (or keep it like it is, if you have short hair). I decided to wear the same clothes, because drying it will take time, and they were my favourite.
Once finished, I went to the small lake and saw Link waiting for me. I grinned evilly and went quietly behind him then playfully pushed him in the water.
"Surprise!" He screamed and groaned lightly hearing my laugh. He held up his hand, like he wanted my help to get out, but when I grabbed it, he instead pulled me in, making me yelp. I was coughing while laughing and he put his hands on my shoulders.
"Hey, are you okay (Y/N)? Breathe." I nodded, trying to take my breath, my face flushed. He smiled, glad that I was a little better.
"So, why did you wanted to meet me?" I asked, he seemed to think for a moment.
"Well...it was for training! The children asked me to buy a slingshot and I also wanted to help you improving your sword skills." He smiled genuinely. I smiled back, nodding and getting out of the water, I was really curious about Link's skills with a slingshot.
I saw Link walking ahead of me, so I followed him, trying to dry my (h/c) hair, but I didn't see Link's smile 'She looked so beautiful...' he thought.
Once we both arrived, I saw the other kids waiting for Link. He got out his brand new slingshot and started to hit all the targets. Once he finished, I grinned, clapping my hands.
"Not bad Link!" He smiled.
"Hey, Rusl told me he gave us something, it's inside, I'm going to get it" I nodded and he went to his house, and got out with a wooden sword on his back and another one in his hand. "Here's yours (Y/N)." He gave me the weapon which was in his hand and I looked at it, smiling brightly.
"Wow..."
"Hey, (Y/N), can you show us what you know?" Talo asked. I nodded, then stared at the training dummy and I showed the children the moves they wanted me to do.
After that, a monkey with a flower in its head, was being chased by the kids. "Oh no, they're going to do so much stupid things..." I said, shaking my head and sighing.
"We have to go help them though, the woods aren't safe these days." Link said, walking to Epona and straddling it. He stretched his hand out. "Come with me, it will be easier with you and now you know how to defend yourself." I nodded, grabbing his hand and straddling Epona behind Link, flushing at the proximity. I wrapped my arms around his waist to keep me from falling off Epona.
When we were searching for the kids, I saw Beth and Malo but not Talo. As we were in the woods searching for him, I saw a man, whose name is Coro, he had afro hair, I met him a few times before. He gave Link a lantern with oil, free of charge too! We thanked him and went to the cave to get in Faron's forest.
Link and I got inside it, the place full of spider webs and I had my first encounter with a Bokoblin there. We were now in the woods, still searching for Talo, defeating every creature on our way. We arrived at a huge tree and Link saw him and the monkey, both in cages! With two Bokoblins to guard them. Link and I killed them quickly then freed Talo and the poor animal.
After coming back with the child, I decided that it was time for me to head home, but Rusl had asked me and Link to come with him. In the spring in Faron's woods, he told us about the weird feeling when it's twilight, like spirits come to see the world of light then go back to their own world. He sighed lightly and said.
"I have something to ask you both, (Y/N) and Link. I was supposed to deliver something to the royal family of Hyrule tomorrow... Yes it was a task set to me by the mayor, but...would you go in my stead?" There was a pause. "Link, you have never been to Hyrule, right? I think (Y/N) will tell you about it during the trip" I nodded, smiling. Rusl got up "It's getting late, we should head back to the village. I will talk to Bo about this matter." I got up as well, stretching my arms above my head. I walked with Rusl and Link and left them once I arrived at my house. I bid them goodnight and got inside. I ate a simple meal and went to bed.
What I didn't know was that tomorrow will be the day where everything changes in my life.
