Zelda knew Nabooru had arrived, but she still stayed in her father's room. He had just fallen asleep, and she wanted to enjoy those fleeting moments when his face didn't show how torn he was between the horrors of memories and the confusion of nothingness.
"I'm sorry," whispered Nabooru, standing a few steps away from her.
"No, it's ok. I...shouldn't linger," said Zelda, standing up from the edge of her father's bed. "What is it?"
They moved to a corner of the room, next to a window that overlooked the gardens where Zelda had first met Link.
"It's...the seal. I felt a disturbance in the Spirittemple, and...I...I truly don't know how, but when I arrived at the central sanctum Sheik wasn't there," said Nabooru.
A heavy weight settled on Zelda's chest. "What do you mean he wasn't there? He can't...He can't not be there. That is impossible," she said.
Nabooru rubbed the bridge of her nose. "I know, I know.
"He couldn't have gotten up and walked away," said Zelda, using all of her will power to not start yelling. "I would have felt it. I...Rauru and you both used your power to anchor him."
Nabooru nodded. "I just spoke with Rauru. He didn't feel anything. Either of us would have felt the shield breaking, but we didn't, so it must not have been broken at all."
"Nabooru I don't understand," said Zelda, wishing the spirit sage would just tell her what it all meant. The very idea that Sheik was up and walking somewhere in Hyrule was pushing her to despair.
"It had to have been dissolved, but the only way to dissolve it is to use our own power. Zelda, the only person who has access to our own power is Link. Only he could have gone through the traps at the temple and dissolved the shield."
Zelda shook her head. "No, that can't be. He wouldn't...Why would he do something like that?" she said, taking a step away from Nabooru.
"It doesn't matter why," said Nabooru. "We need to find Link and figure out what he did, and we need to find him now, as soon as possible. The barrier between timelines has started. It's breaking in the Spirit Temple, and I cannot contain it for long."
Nabooru pulled off her gloves and showed her the cracks running through her hands, up her arms. Her corporeal form was cracking, much faster than Zelda could have imagined.
