HIS  STILL  EXPRESSION  HIDES  THE  DEEP  APPRECIATION  LATER  SHOWN  IN  HIS  CONCISE  REPLY.  For  there's  a  certain  nuance  in  his  tone,  that  makes  it  require  no  more  than  a  ❝  Thank  you  ❞  or  gestures  to  be  felt.  Though  he  has  no  real  intention  to  hold  her  to  her  word,  especially  considering  that they had just met each other, that their paths might not remain intertwined beyond that night, and  that  it  wasn't  her  responsibility  but  his  ❝  She  is  very  important  ❞  whether  to  him  personally,  for  a  greater  purpose  that  not  many,  not  even  himself,  can  fully  grasp  or  something  else  entirely,  he  doesn't  elaborate.  Still,  the  green-dressed  hero  had  unknowingly  offered  her  another  clue.

Something  he  may  have  realized  of  if  it  weren't  for  the  first  answer  he  gets,  as  the  mention  of  the  race  makes  his  eyes  open  wide  ❝  The  dragon-kind,  you  say  ?  ❞  his  mind  immediately  drifts  back  to  the  creature  he  had  saved  from  being  sold  in  the  market.  And  that  all  too  familiar  and  painful  nostalgia  crawls  its  way  back  into  his  heart.  As  the  realization  that,  no  matter  if  the  memory  is  as  vivid  as  if  it  had  happened  yesterday,  seven  years  had  actually  passed  by  sinks  in.  SHARP  AND  UNDENIABLE.  A  tight  knot  forms  in  his  stomach,  a  lingering  discomfort  he  attempts  to  shake  off  with  a  breath  in  order  to  push  the  past  aside  and  force  his  attention  back  to  the  present.

❝  I  know  of  a  dragon,  ❞  he  begins, form iluminated occasionally by the flickering firelight ❝  but  it  has  been  a  long  time  since  I  last  saw  it  and  I  cannot  say  what  has  been  of  it  ❞  yet  something  deep  down  tells  him  it  would  be  well.  Strength  and  independence  are  in  its  nature,  and  he  doubts  anyone  would  dare  harm  it. The  real  question  is  if  the  little  information  he  has  would  be  useful  for  her  mission.  But  since  she  has  demonstrated her  own  good  will  in  helping  him,  he  chooses  to  share  it  just  in  case  it  proves  valuable  in  accomplishing  her  goal.  After  all,  it  wouldn't  be  the  first  time  a  small  lead  turned  out  to  be  exactly  what  set  someone  on  the  right  path.

HONESTY IS MET WITH A NOD, : FURTHER QUERIES BLOSSOM, yet the petals do not flow with the gentle breeze. leave it to another adventurer to understand the power of half - truths. in search of a friend ; while the hero had little to go off on, she does think back upon any sightings of her own made upon her journey, but is left wanting. ... fingers pause their movement of the stick that was twirled in-between, &. she fixes her posture ever so slightly. ❝ i see, ❞ comes the simple response treated warmly by divine tune. genuine smile curls lush lips, ❝ i hope you find them. ❞ A SHORT PAUSE HELD, the crackles of the fire mix with the soft melody the crickets bring underneath this starry sky. ❝ i will keep my eyes open, should i come across more wandering strangers. ❞ this bit embedded with lighthearted humor, considering the two of them fit the description themselves. &. THEN COMES A NAME, ... golden orbs dilate ever so slightly, but soon such look fades into something serene, something warm.

THEN COMES HER TURN TO FEED HIS CURIOSITY, : LUMINOUS GAZE SETTLES UPON THE DANCING FLAMES ONCE MORE. &. while there is security in those half - truths, not a single ounce within golden soul warned of danger. ❝ my name, or my purpose for being here out in the wilderness? ❞ she speaks the query with a mix of softest hum, the tone amused. ... BUT BEFORE HE COULD CLARIFY, SHE CONTINUES ; ❝ i traveled here to speak with the dragon-kind. ❞ while the dragonsong war was put to an end, there were forces at play still that threatened this peace forged. ( the echo, or perhaps her soul on its' own recognizes that ancient aether, radiating of immense power could not be mistaken of. ) the ascians sought to forge war where they could, sow seeds of chaos to bring forth the rejoining. ... she hopes their doings are not tied with this friend he seeks. another pause comes, before she looks at him again, that slight curl upwards returning. ❝ ... as for my name, it is sarastus. ❞ the first light in the darkness.

MEMORY,  WHAT  A  FRAGILE  THING  IT  HAD  PROVEN  TO  BE.  The  calamity,  his  companions,  their  failure...One  would  think  there  was  no  way  for  someone  to  forget  it.  Yet,  he  had,  consequence  of  his  way  too  long  rest.  Even  his  own  scars  had  become  silent.  But  now  he  had  awaken  again,  and  he  must  remember.  If  only  to  know  and  understand  mistakes  of  the  past  so  that  history  wouldn't  repeat  itself.  If  only  to  remember  her...

The  Sheikah  Slate  was  supposed  to  help  him  in  that  regard.  For  the  princess  had  taken  photos  and  he  had  always  been  at  her  side.  However,  finding  the  place  where  said  photos  had  been  taken  was  proving  to  be  a  much  more  complicated  task  than  the  knight  had  originally  thought.  The  only  solution  he  had  found  to  solve  the  problem  was  actually  quite  simple,  asking  people.  So,  that's  what  he  had  been  doing  for  days  and  that's  what  he  continued  to  do  when  he  came  across  that  woman.

❝  Forgive  me,  I  will  not  take  much  of  your  time  ❞  and  as  if  his  words  had  been  a  promise,  he  went  straight  to  the  point  ❝  I  am  looking  for  this  place  ❞  Link  began,  taking  a  few  steps  closer  to  her  so  that  she  could  take  a  good  look  at  what  he  meant  ❝  and  from  what  I have  gathered  it  should  be  near here,  do  you  happen  to  know  anything  of  it?  ❞  surprisingly  he  found  his  heart  beating  slightly  faster  once  the  question  had  come  out  of  his  lips,  perhpas  with  the  hope  that  his  search  would  finally  be  over.

I believe you all should let Link be your muse's protector. He will literally do anything for them.

Trying to come up with a modern au for Link and honestly the closets I'm getting to his role in canon is that he's a bodyguard of the royal family.

I know I have few mutuals here as I'm keeping this dash very small but... plotting call maybe?

Honestly I need more interactions here so...like this for a small thing from Link?

“As you wish” was all he ever said to her. That day, she was amazed to discover that when he was saying “as you wish”, what he meant was “I love you”.

THE PRINCESS BRIDE — 1987, dir. Rob Reiner

+ BONUS:

Btw I must add that precisely because he is left with no other option but to discover who he is in that situation is precisely why he, to me at least, is the version of Link who understands everything better and why he ends up being so mature (along with what he learns from the trials he overcomes during his journey)

Also talking about Link's origins made me think about how, in my opinion, he felt he never truly belonged anywhere? He doesn't belong in kokiri Forest because the bully he receives is a constant reminder he is not like the rest, Hyrule is a land completely unknown to him and what little he gets to discover changes in the seven years he is gone, and then, once he finds his place as the hero and helper to rebuilding the kingdom he is sent back to a time where he is "nothing" again and is left completely alone since the connections he created are gone ( except for Zelda, the only other person who remembers everything ) and even navi leaves him.
