Everyone is on his way to Hyrule Castle. The Fallen Leaves Festival is ready, and everyone is excited. People from all corners of Hyrule is coming our way. And I'm stressed out. I .. The Princess will announce that I'm innocent to all the damages that I've caused to the entirety of Hyrule later today. It's also the first time I'm hanging out with everyone of the Champions at the same time. And that I'm seeing Mipha. We've been writing each others letters, but we were too shy to meet again after what went on at Purah's laboratory.  Speaking of this Sheikah nerd, she definitely knows what happened. But I know she kept it for herself. Because none of the Champions nor the Princess spoke about this. Thank Goddesses. Because otherwise there would've been a crime committed. 

Right now, I'm brushing my hair and stroking my feathers, staring by the window. I have to look impeccable. Apparently, there's also an inauguration. But I haven't been told about what. Are they opening a Café ?Just kidding. It must be a memorial for the deceased soldiers and citizens of Hyrule during the Calamity . 

I would've worn Mipha's Zora scarf, but I'm given a new uniform. A Royal Guard Armor. It's suiting me perfectly, I must say .I'll ask Zelda if I can add the scarf. 

*knock knock*

Speaking of the princess, there she is

Speaking of the princess, there she is. She has cut her hair, which hits me every time. It's as short as mine, if not even shorter. She said she did it to support me, as well as to make a fresh and brand new start. I cried the first time I heard this. 

- So Revali. Are you ready ?

I gulped : "Yes, Princess." 

- You're scared. It's rare to see you this way. You barely showed any fear before. 

She pat my shoulder, adding : "Everything's gonna be fine."

I nod and took a deep breath before heading outside with her. My heart is racing. This is it. The Ceremony is about to begin. I forgot to ask her about the scarf. shoot.

Outside, in front of Hyrule Castle Gates, I'm standing proud next to the princess alongside Link in the same armor as me. There is an immense crowd.  Everyone is here. Urbosa, Daruk, Mipha... The Zora King and the little Sidon. I quickly take a look at Mipha. She saw me, because she immediately flustered and looked away. Her baby brother noticed and is trying to know what happened, and the Zora King stare continuously at me. I try to look as natural as possible, but the pressure is intense.
During her speech, Zelda first stated that I, the "noble Rito Warrior" I quote, did indeed committed threatful acts towards Hyrule. She specified however that these were circumstances were I wasn't controlling myself and thus I was worthy of her trust. Even more, worthy of becoming part of The Royal guard Guild as Squad Captain. I stood there, gazing proudly at everyone, and stating of being grateful to her Majesty for this honorable post as leader. I made a reverence and kissed her hand, letting everyone know my allegiance to the princess of Hyrule.  Now with that our of the way, she could start the inauguration:
