As I was welcomed on board the vessel I identified some of the crew bustling about the Main Saloon. As soon as one caught sight of me he signaled the rest to neal, I nodded to signify that they can keep to their task.

. . .

We ambled to the Upper Saloon to be served a Noble Pursuit. Monaco was tasked with preparing the Master Cabin for me. It was soon made apparent to me that I would not have to do work.

Someone softly padded up the stairs from the Cockpit.

"Hello Your Grace" She said kneeling down,

"Hello, who might you be" I asked,

"Oh, I'm Illia, the Crew Manager" she replied looking a bit flustered.

"Brilliant, It's great to meet you". I took one last sip of the Noble Pursuit and cantered to the Master Cabin. I took a quick shower soon to be defeated by bed.

. . .

I woke to the calming noise of waves. It turned out that once I had retired to bed the captain maneuvered out to the open ocean. While I was fast asleep Monaco lowered and set up the Master Balcony. Today was the first day in years that I hadn't been bombarded by Monaco. This delightful surprise propped me out of bed. I went into the closet to pick out white distressed jeans with gold seams and a royal blue blouse with white and gold accents.

I opened the door to my esteemed perch and sat on one of two chairs. The view was quite magnificent. I soon entered a daze as I thought about what was ahead. Leadership of Hyrule, soon 20 years of age, and worst of all, Marriage.

. . . 

I sat down on a couch in the Aft Cockpit. I was delighted to have the area all to my self.
