The wind blew across the Great Sea, bringing calmness to everything. The Hylians loved it. It was really peaceful. One of the most peaceful islands, was Outset Island. Outset Island is home to peace all round, & a little girl named Ayrll looking for her big brother.

"Big Brother!" She shouted

She ran across the beach. Ayrll was a little blonde girl, wearing a blue dress with roses on it.

"Big Brother!" She shouted again

She took out her telescope, & looked around Outset Island. Eventually she spotted someone on the look-out post. She ran over to it. There was a boy sleeping there. He was a young blonde boy named Link, who wore a blue lobster T-Shirt. Ayrll stared at him through the telescope. The boy grunted, got up & saw no-one at the ladder. He got up & yawned. Ayrll was behind him.

"I knew you'd be here!" Ayrll said

Link turned to see her, quite surprised.

"Oh, hey Ayrll." Link said "Why are you here?"

"This is my FAVOURITE spot to stare out at the sea. I call it... Ayrll's Lookout." Ayrll explained

"Alright." Link said

"So, do you remember what day it is today?" Ayrll asked

"Ermmmmmmmm." Link thought aloud

"You're still half-asleep, aren't you?" Ayrll asked

"Yeah." Link yawned

"Did you forget?" Ayrll asked

"Forget what?" Link wondered

Big brother..." Ayrll started "It's your birthday!"

Link gasped. He couldn't believe he'd forgotten. Ayrll looked towards their house.

"That's why Grandma has been waiting for you to come back to the house! She's been waiting for a while now." Ayrll explained "It's a good thing I came to find you!"

She turned back to Link.

"You should probably go home and see what Grandma wants, don't you think?"

"Yeah!" Link agreed

At Grandma's House

Link walked in.

"GRANDMA!" Link shouted "I'M HOME!"

"I'm upstairs." Grandma said

Link climbed up the ladder, & saw Grandma holding a green outfit.

"I've been waiting for you, Link." Grandma said "Link... Try these on."

She held them out towards Link.

"Time certainly flies... I can't believe you're already old enough to wear these clothes." Grandma said

Link took them with a I'm-not-sure-I-want-these look.

"Don't look so disappointed, dear one! Just try them on." Grandma suggested

"Ok." Link sighed

"Today is a day to celebrate! It is the day that you become the same age as the hero spoken of in all the legends!" Grandma said "You only have to wear them for one day, so don't look so down. Be proud child!"

"In the olden days, this was the day boys were finally considered to be men. They were taught the ways of the sword to prepare them for battle with their enemies." Grandma said "But we don't live in such an age any longer... Our ways are the ways of peace.

"Nowadays, I suppose Orca is the only one on the island who still knows anything about swordplay." Grandma said

She looked up at the wreath with a shield in it.

"Hanging the family shield on the wall as decoration is another tradition that has been carried down from those days. Grandma said

Link was fully into the clothes. They included; brown boots, a brown belt with a yellow swirly button on it, a green tunic & a green floppy hat.

"Does all this make sense to you?" Grandma asked

Link nodded. He really didn't.

"Isn't that nice, Link? They suit you perfectly! A perfect fit!" Grandma inspected "Well, tonight I'm going to invite the whole town over for your birthday party, so I'd better start getting ready, shouldn't I? Your Grandma is going to make your favourite soup for you tonight! Mmmm! I just know you're looking forward to it!

"Now, go get your sister, Ayrll." Grandma said

"Okay." Link agreed

Outside

"Well, that was the longest conversation I've ever had in my life!" Link said to himself "Now, where's Ayrll?"
