Okay this chapter is going to be short, and kind of boring. I uploaded the next chapter too, its more exciting than this one~
I don't own The Legend of Zelda~
"Hey! Watch where you're going!" A servant yelled after me. I was running through the castle hallways to the council meeting; once those doors shut they stayed shut until after the meetings. If I missed my first meeting then I would never be taken seriously by the council.
Ahead I saw Zelda and Link heading into the room, but that didn't slow me down; they were probably the last ones who go into the council room. I had to get into there so I tackled Link; they wouldn't start without him.
"Acandia?" Link yelled.
"Sorry; tripped," I lied.
"I think you were late," Zelda said disapproving.
I got up, "You're right, but I had to help Captain Vincent place a particular new recruit who beat him."
"Really, he must really be someone then… Where did you place him?" Zelda asked.
"I just helped place him; Vincent placed him as a pit-dog so he can have me to test his skills. I'll do that tomorrow, we should go into the council room now." I straitened my tight Sheikah suit, and helped Link up.
"I think you're stalling," Link raised an eyebrow to me.
I ignored him, "Can we go in now?"
"Yes, but you might want to know that I am always the first one in the room," Zelda said slyly.
I shook my head and sat down by the head of the table. Zelda took her seat as the Queen and Link sat next to her, they were equals in the marriage so far. The council would decide whether or not they needed to be jointly ruled or if Link would just be her consort.
The sages entered together and sat down at the huge table. Next came the elders; they were made up of the old King's advisors (They were a sad reminder of Zelda's fathers' death by Ganondorf), an old scholar, the head of religion, Captain Vincent, and his lieutenant.
The heavy old doors slammed shut and the meeting started, "Today we will be discussing my new marriage, our new military general, and picking her lieutenant." Zelda said with such leadership.
"It isn't our choice in this matter whether or not we will be married jointly, or if I will be her consort. My Queen will rule Hyrule either way, I won't rule without her by my side," Link explained to the advisors.
"His Majesty is kind hearted and has righteous judgment," Zelda informed the council.
"I vote they marry jointly," I said casually. The sages didn't have to think about joining my decision. The council men were thoughtful for a moment and eventually were swayed to agree.
"Now, onto our new General Acandia; do you really think that this female Sheikah can catch the command of even the most content soldier?" the head advisor asked skeptically.
"I think she's more than ready enough, she handled one of my men that beat me. He beat me within seconds too, if she can beat him then she should be able to get her men's attention!" Captain Vincent declared.
I smiled at Vincent; thankful for him sticking up for me.
"Fine, we'll see how she does. What about this man then; what will become of him?" The head advisor tried.
"I'll test him tomorrow; if he beats me then he can have my position. If it takes me more than five minutes to beat him then he can be my lieutenant," I said bored already.
"Well, that settles that. All matters have been dealt with, we can call this meeting to an end," Zelda said happily excusing herself and Link from the room.
