Woohoo; updating again—introducing an OC!

Reasons why I L-O-V-E introducing OC's:

It gives me a reason to really show my creativity and not just describe what someone else has already created.

I get to name them! That's sooooo fun.

I can dedicate them to people. Like this guy, Ethan—he's dedicated and based off of my step-brother, Rich.

Well, um, anyway…I don't own Legend of Zelda. On with the chapter!

Midna's POV:

Ethan was a soldier that had been kept in the Hylian Military for one reason after the takeover—his abilities as an archer. And those abilities did in fact make him an "inside" source. He had been placed as the Captain of the Gerudo League. The Gerudo League was the best league of Soldiers in the long run; named after the desert that had apparently been Ganon's Birthplace. It was now the merging point between the realms, and a new Castle was being built using the ruins of a place called Arbiter's Grounds, where the Gerudo League would be transferred.

But until that point, Ethan could help us. His abilities granted him special permission. One slip of that ID of his and the guards at the bridges ignored him completely. He was gifted in grace and strength of his walk as he approached Ordon.

His messages had been clever. He had torn the letter into four pieces, mailing each from a different province. Link and Ilia pieced them together and soon the Resistance from Hyrule Castle stepped into this practice. Their letters were swift and blunt and easily read once we completed piecing them together. I was shocked at them.

Dear L,I,M:
Will come on the day of the full moon, this month. ETHAN is Gerudo League and we want to Oia.

See you soon.

-your friends.

Oia, as Link explained, was the ancient word for "celebrate" but had a meaning that was harder to understand. Another ancient word that I had never heard—evanescent—which meant in a very dumb-ed down version "to fade away". I puzzled over it. Why we want to fade away? But, as I thought over it, I realized that Ethan meant "fade away from spotlight and plan".

The Full Moon was approaching. It was difficult to determine when it was a full moon, because the sky was black all the time, but as soon as the moon started to rise in the sky, I gasped on the platform of Link's house.

"Midna? You alright?" Ilia asked, her voice carrying softly through the ajar door. I put one finger up and cocked my head—listening. There were no horse hooves galloping through the night, but there was the crackling of a cargo bag and twigs snapping. And soon enough, a man entered the clearing carrying a bag that clearly housed humans.

"So you're Midna," The man taunted. Through the platform torch's light, I could see that he wore no shirt. His skin was a dark olive-tone, hidden under a glistening layer of sweat. Muscular, too. His hair was thick and probably done at a shop in Castle Town, sticking up in black spikes. His eyes were rich brown, narrowed and a grin slid onto his face.

He wore a Gerudo League cloak—alike to the black Citizen's Cloak I wore, but it was red, bearing the crest of the Gerudo Gold League. He was tall—the cloak was up around his ankles, revealing his sandals, just like mine. I snorted, amused. "Yup."

"Where are L and I?" Ethan didn't use their full names. Paranoid or cautious? I couldn't tell.

"Inside, of course. I got the honor of greeting you." I hoped that he understood that by honored, I meant that I wanted to spit on him and then blow his face off with some good ol' Twili Magic. "Ilia's making some food—she makes a mean pumpkin soup." Would anyone notice if I dismembered his body and diced it into the soup?

He rolled his eyes. "Too bad that I wasn't there when you gave up my realm. I would have handled it smoothly." Oh, yea, really? I doubt his arrow could have gone an inch before I dodged. A little part of me reminded me that he was in the Gerudo League….

A curve in the bag moved and I heard a huff. Ethan groaned. "Let's go inside, then."

I hated him already. He was cocky and blunt and oh-so-confident. Whatever his plan was to destroy Ganon and Zant, I sort of hoped it involved him being "noble" and dying to create a diversion…

Short update, but I thought it was important.
