So I don't Forget Again PT.2

Entry 237: Home

*I can recall those next few moments all too clearly. All at once we attacked those accursed eyes, anything less and they would not have broken. It tried to get in one last attack, but you would not let it.

*None of you would.

*I saw her, my sister, she was right beside you. Yunobo saw Daruk, Riju said she saw a Gerudo woman while Teba says a Rito warrior swooped in to your side. It seems we all truly came together to end this.

*However as that was the finishing blow was struck the beast broke, unable to keep on any form the malice bursting and exploding in a desperate final strike against us. We were sent flying, Yunobo used his shield to protect us, but... it too broke, unable to take any more and... the same happened with yours.

*Your screams, that overwhelming pain and suffering I shan't ever forget. Many of us got hit somewhere by that putrid muck but you by far had gotten the most, the stuff was almost completely covering you, quickly eating away at your armor. But some had already reached you.

*To keep it from eating you whole we had to remove it before it could spread any more.

*We knew of nothing else we could do to save your life. As much as it may have pained us but you even more so to do.

*We amputated your arm and leg before rushing you to get proper medical care, if we had waited for doctors, it would have been too late. Still, a part of me fears we were too rash in our judgments and caused you undo harm.

Don't forget, you still saved a part of me though. Your armor and scale, the malice wasn't able to eat through it as quickly as the rest of my armor, so I still have one because of you.

*And that I am glad for, but we still hurt you, even if it was to save you and it was a time sensitive situation, I can't help but to wonder. I know the Sheikah doctors said our judgments were sound, but if I were able to save any more of you, I would have!

I think it might have happened no matter what. It was my infected arm, and you saw how poorly it was already doing in the battle. I, I think I wasn't able to pull it away in time, maybe? You and the others did nothing wrong. Besides I wasn't the only one who lost something, the back of your head tail fin had to be removed as well as some of your other head fins.

*Perhaps, but that was but from little splashes like what took your foot. Link you were covered in the stuff, you were writhing in agony, it had gotten so much of you. We all have suffered, but that doesn't minimize your pain. Most of your body appears to have been burned from it in a way, but light purple burns.

*As we were trying to figure out how to save you, the monsters disappeared and the guardians all halted as a great light burst from the Calamity, but it was nothing like the lightning, and with it fading away the beast was gone leaving but a girl behind. She was in a panic, she wanted to use her magic to save you, but she simply could not summon it so... we did what we did.

*Once you were given to the doctors none of us were able to see you. You were in such a delicate state, so much lost blood, internal damage, broken bones, bruises, and countless other ailments. They were not sure you would make it. But I knew you would. You fought so long and so hard for this peace, I knew you would make it through to be able to see it, you just had too.

*Moments after the Calamity fell the Divine Beast seemed to die, all their light fading, instead of standing they all suddenly sat at the same time, shaking the earth beneath us one last time.

*Once you were in a more stable condition you were taken to Hateno.

*And we simply waited.

I'm glad after all that, the first thing I saw was you. I knew everything was okay. I was confused where I was for a moment though, I was in a waterbed, but I clearly was not in the Domain. I hadn't seen my house after it was remodeled with the improvements I wanted, so it came as a bit of a surprise to see it.

*And I was glad to see you awaken at last, even with your healing ability your body had been through so much, and surely, it's been traumatized by the... damage. I was told to get a doctor when you had awoken so they may speak with you, but I could not help lingering. I thought it was best you took your time to awaken and not be rushed into speaking. Yet when you saw me, you immediately fretted over my injuries and the state of everyone else.

*You are a true marvel, you know that? Even without that blade, after being told you were no longer the one who could save us all, you still raced on into that fight, even accepting Bossa Nova's help despite your fears. If you do not embody courage, then courage must be unknown to me, because you most certainly embody it, even to your own determent, getting hurt for the sake of others.

Not just me, everyone else is amazing too. We all won, we all did it, like you said I needed Bossa Nova's help, as well as your's, and Riju's and Yunobo's, and Teba's and especially Kass'. I asked him to make sure you guys knew to defend yourselves and instead, because I said I was scared, and not sure if I could, he called on you all to fight. I would have died without you all. I needed you.

*Kass, it is amazing how he was able to reach all of us just in time, but we didn't fight because of him. It's funny, I was hoping to unite all our people after all this, but... it seems the Hylians still do so, after all, we fought for you, you were the one who brought us all together. You who had gone out of your way to help and save our homes, you who stayed and took the time to learn from and experience our cultures. You who did it all out of the kindness of your heart and nothing else. You didn't even mean to but made allies and friends out of all of us. You are our hero, the hero of all people in Hyrule, of course we'd come, you may be a hero, but even heroes need help. It was only natural we came.

Why must you do this to me. Even when writing about me just- the look in your eyes is so kind and tender and it's gotten my heart racing!

*Well, you are always awfully smiley when I see you writing of me, so I suppose words are simply not enough and our love seeps through our expressions.

*I just adore seeing you blush so!

It hasn't even been long, yet it feels like forever since we've gotten to be together like this. I really need it. Thank you. I love you.

*I love you too. You more than deserve this respite.

I am feeling antsy though. I've been bedridden all this time. I'm to wait for Purah and Robbie to arrive to see if they can make some technology for me. I don't see why I can't at least try walking around with a stick for a cane or something!

At least I've gotten to see everyone. They're all okay. Everyone is. Even Zelda. She doesn't look any different than in my memories. She hadn't changed at all.

She apologized a lot for not being able to save me, how she was able to keep up her magic for so long but when I needed it, she couldn't.

I have a lot of mixed feelings seeing her. I think she can tell, she hasn't come to see me much after that.

As of now, it's mostly been a blur of seeing doctors, sleeping, being visited, sleep, more doctors and so on.

Some more had happened but it's a little difficult writing with only one arm, having to lean my book on my legs and... I don't want to think about my missing arm or foot right now. I just want to remember that I'm here, and alive, and with everyone, especially you.
