Oh what the heck, lets upload it anyway. I was going to wait for a few more views and a couple of reviews before i put anything else up but who cares. I've got one review (Even if it is by a friend who had read it before and doesn't really count) and thats good enough for me. Besides it's only a short chapter and i felt ashamed looking at my weedy little word count. At least this makes it four figures. Enjoy

Dedicated to Not For Lack Of Trying. The last line of defence between me and a horde of angry reviews complaining about my poor language skills.

2. Nearing

He was getting closer now and, whilst still in the distance, he could now make out the vague outline of the fortress he knew so well. He was running over various strategies in his head for his arrival. He was not so naive to think they would welcome him with open arms. He knew they would have orders to kill him on sight. He paused a second.

Something in the air had changed.

All the old familiar feelings were still there but there was something else, something foreign, something…Hylian. New ideas leapt into his head and he quickened his pace. He would need to act fast.

The desert wanderer wasn't the only one who knew of the new arrival. Mutoh, the boss of the carpenters, was also very much aware of this, having been abruptly shaken awake and pinned against the wall by one very angry Link.

"Where are the rest of your workers?" he demanded.

"I don't know, they went to the Gerudo fortress and never came back" stammered a now wide awake and rather terrified Mutoh. He wasn't one for getting scared easily but when you're pinned up against the wall by a strong, angry bloke with a sword in his hand it was an understandable reaction.

"Take me there" Link commanded, stepping back to allow the dishevelled foreman room to leave the tent.

But Mutoh stayed put. "I'm not going near that place. Not even under threat of death. You hear horrible tales of what they do to men there." Regaining his composure he added "All coward's talk of course. Pah, wouldn't surprise me if they were cooking my men over a spit roast right now. Serve them right the bunch of lazy layabouts" Link sighed, clearly he wasn't going to get any help from this man.

"Can you at least point me in the right direction then."

"Turn right after leaving the tent and it's about four miles over that ridge." Link turned and left. "I wouldn't go there though." Mutoh called after him "I've heard they torture people for months before they let you die." He paused "All rubbish of course," he muttered more to himself than anyone else as Link was already heading over the ridge and out of sight.

Something i only just noticed is that nowhere in these chapters, my other typed up chapters or my future plans do I mention Navi. Since i can't think of any simple solution without constantly having to put in additional, unnecessary and quite frankly annoying dialogue (just like the actual game) I have decided to simply ignore her existence. You read right, in this story Link does not have a fairy. I realize i probably just lost every reader who's a fan of Navi but lets be honest. How many fans does Navi really have?

P.S if anyone really is strongly opposed to this just say so and i will have a harder think about what i can do about it.

Remember reviewers get internet cookies (and not those little ones either, think the really big ones you get from Millies cookies that are more like pizzas.) Oh yes.
