Kass spotted us. He was searching the area for the location of another song. "He breaks the rocks that serve to bind, Above the tempestuous bay. On wings of cloth and wood entwined, He lands on the alter to open the way." We found a precarious, crumbling rock formation in Lanayru bay right by Horon Lagoon where a Shrine platform was.

We wondered if we could trick the platform so Kass dropped me from the air and I landed on it with the paraglider but nothing happened.

Using the Sheikah bombs we were able to break the rocks revealing updrafts. We tried just dropping me on the platform again but it still didn't work.

Following all of the updrafts, the wind took me to the platform, and it activated, revealing a shrine. We spent a good long time trying to figure out how the platform was able to sense the difference between cheating and completing the puzzle. The stuff we blew up didn't have anything like the Sheikah technology on it. Were there sensors under ground?

This was the last song Kass wanted to solve before returning home, but he asked if there was anything he could help with before going.

He hadn't even left yet, and all I wanted to do was cry.

He asked me if I was alright.

The pressure of all this is just starting to sink in now, just how important of a responsibility what I'm doing is I guess. I don't know really, but I think that's it? I've been having a lot of thoughts lately, the others are maybe it, but... I don't want

Kass asked where I was going next. When I mentioned going to Lanayru Tower he spoke of how beautiful the view was there and that it was a great choice.

Again he asked if I was sure I didn't need his help for anything. I don't want to keep him from his family. I'm sure they miss him so much.

Before he was about to leave he said that having traveled a lot, he was used to the loneliness it could bring. Then he hugged me, telling me that it was okay to talk to him anytime we met.

I ended up asking him if he could sleep in the Shrine with me, make sure that if I sleep too long he makes sure Bossa Nova gets to go out and eat and stuff.

I'm so tired, and Kass was relieved and said that I look like I really need the rest.

So I don't forget againWhere stories live. Discover now
