Chess 8

You told me something once, I forget when. You could have told me a thousand times, and I would never know. You said I would never have peace.

And you were right?

How could I have peace, in this world or the next? I am doomed, for all eternity, to love you. To love an illusion, someone who exists only in my mind and in my heart and in my memory. Someone I can never touch, someone I can never see. Someone 'as elusive as a Hyrule loach'.

But I caught a loach once, didn't I tell you? So maybe their not as elusive as we thought. Maybe I can catch you one day. If I do, I can tell you now, I will never let you go. No matter what.

But it does no good to sit around and mope and wonder and regret loving you. It can't be helped.

So I'll put this letter in with all the others, that strange record of events spanning over who knows how many timelines. We are in that box, you and me. Everything that ever mattered, sitting right there under my bed. I'm so glad I found it. If I hadn't, I would never have remembered, and I would have gone on thinking that you weren't real. I would undoubtedly have gone through with my dark plan. I would have been dead.

So you did end up saving me after all, didn't you? You were with me when I really need you, even if I didn't know it. You were watching out for me, even after you became only an illusion. You watch over me still. So let me say now what I never got the chance to say to your face.

I love you.

I will always love you.

Only you.

Always you.

Thank you, Sheik. Rest in peace, my lovely illusion. I'll join you there some other day. Until then, farewell. After all, I still have people to save.

Link.

Mwahaha. And thus ends the legacy of an afternoon on chocolate. But not quite yet! I still have the original fics to post. One is the orginal Sheik letter, which I like mostly because of the ending, and the Zelda letter, which I like because it is Zelda inadvertantly bashing herself, and I do so believe I have the Ganon letter, which is highly interesting, and is pretty much my theory of what happened to him. So there. I'm posting them, whether you like it or not. Nya. Review please! I like reviews. Reviews make me happy. They give me inspiration! And you want me to be inspired, don't you? Ha ha ha. Anyways... Onwards, always onwards!
