"Vaati fate is not somthing to devote your life worrying about. If we are fated somthing than I am happy I was fated to be with great friends and a place to live comfortably." Vaati could see his reasoning and agreed that the hope of being able to break free was better than accepting fate. And he had escaped the seal hadn't he?
"I.. understand I think."
"I think it's best not to try to answer a question you can never be sure of the answer to."
For the rest of the game Vaati talked idle chatter with Petro and Maji when she returned. Vaati was bored with the peacefullness but was not up for an adventure like yesterday. He soon fell asleep underneath the window while they discussed Shakespear which was apparently some form of liturature. It was quickly tiring.
The next thing Vaati knew he was being pulled from a dream where he had trapped the godesses in a pickle jar and forced each of them to grant him one wish. He couldn't recal all the details but he could have sworn the chosen hero was forced to dress up as a pig and have tea with gannon while Zelda did free form balle wearing a rainbow cucco costume to the music of a sentient ocarina that identified as an aple named Dave. The entire time a storm of raining Elzo figurines were trying to break into the house.
(Was going to write the dream but I might still do it.)
Vaati looked up at Dave who had nudged him awake. Vaati could feel how chilly it was through the blanket that had been placed on him throught his sleep. Despite ot doing much Vaati still felt tired.
"We can go to the library now if you still wish to go." Said Dave while Vaati stood up and folded the small blanket.
"I still want to go." Said Vaati. "Where is it?"
"I'll have to fly you there. It's on the other side of the castle."
"That's fine." Said Vaati as he swallowed the lump in his throat. Dave started flying and swooped around to grab Vaati in his tallon. They flew out the window and began making their way towards the other side of the castle. Vaati hung tightly to the tallons of Dave. He felt scared of falling from such a height as he knew he would be killed as soon as he hit the ground. He couldn't help to feel a thrill that he hadn't felt since he had complete controll of his powers. As he was now he had enough to maybe send a feather into the air, but stopping his fall would take alot more than that.
Vaati hadn't had the chance to see the surrounding of the castle yet as he had been too busy trying to figure out how he would survive, but when he looked he sawan extensive forest and he could make out some light off in the distance. He could see small flickerings between the trees and he spotted a large lake.
After admiring the view after getting his nervs settled Dave had made his way to the other side of the castle. Vaati looked ahead and culd see a window suddely opened. Dave flew in the opening and Vaati could see an extensive collection of books. There were a few tables with chairs aound them. Dave flew by one of the chairs and dropped Vaati on the floor. Vaati realized the library seemed too dusty to be frequented by anyone.
The books on the shelves were all different sizes and colors. Some were large with faded red covers and others were new with striking brown covers. The shelves extended towards the ceiling making him realize that he would be hard pressed to read any book as he now was too small to reach the second shelf. Not only that, but the shelves seemed to have no defining features to tell the contents of each isle. He had no idea how Dave was going to find the book he was looking for. He then realized that Dave seemed to know where he was going when he flew off.
"What do you think you're doing back in here?!" Vaati heard. Vaati then had the pleasure of watching Dave being chased around by a grey owl while still trying to hold onto the book he had in his tallons.
"You don't own this library you old coot!" Shouted Dave who just missed being swiped by the older bird. Dave dropped the book on the ground near Vaati when the two had collided in the air. Vaati tuned out the scuffle as he turned to examine the book. He recognized the language of ancient Hylian. The book itself was small compared to the others but made up for that in thickness. The cover was a smooth blue leather, and had the title of Many Magic Monsters. Vaati realized the use of monsters instead of creatures was a subtle key.
It would either mean that the author had bias of the creatures in the book, or they were dangerous. Either way Vaati began the task of opening the book and lifting the cover. As soon as he got the cover opened all the way the book adjusted itself and leaned to the side. Vaati quickly got out of the way as a few of the pages flipped open and landed where he had been standing. Vaati looked at the pages that had been flipped to and admired the illustration of the dragon.
Vaati had been familiar with dragons in Hyrule and knew a lot about the ones from his world. He read about halfway through the page and learned that this world's dragons were used for sport and such and called mindless beasts before an exhausted Dave landed next to Vaati, his wings making wind that turned a few pages.
"Sorry about that Vaati." Said Dave as he tried to get his breath. "I had hoped the fool would have been asleep by now." He then glared at the owl that was preening itself on the nearby shelf.
"This "Old fool" was able to give you young whippersnapper a chase you soon will not forget! So. Who is the little purple mouse?" He said staring interestingly at Vaati. Vaati finaly observed the owl and realized it looked less than sane. He had feathers that pointed in random directions and had a grey color that was mostly associated with old age.
"I'm not a mouse! I'm not tasty! Stop looking at me like that!" Shouted Vaati remembering why minish were afraid of evrything bigger than them. He then again realized how low his magic reserves were and cursed the goddess in his head while watching the old owl for any sudden movements.
"Haw! It was just a joke little one. Eating some strange creature, even a mouse that was magiced purple... magic is not good for digestion with my stomach." Said the owl.
"Noted." Said Vaati while still keeping track of the owls movements. "So let me guss the reason you didn't want to come durring the day was because you thought you could avoid this owl."
Stress gets me sick and have i had alot of sterss latley. Stay hydrated moi ami. Also it's hard to look into the lore of this because i never realy paid attention and this story is getting more complex than i had planned. But it's now my internet baby. Also Felix Colgrave's videos are so dark but captivating... so dark.
