I rush back up to the top of Polymus mountain to tell Sidon the news, and maybe spend some alone-time with him... ANYWAYS back on topic. I can't let those kinds of thoughts get to me yet. He might not forgive me for how I acted when I saw him and Yona... I shudder at the thought of it. I near the top of the rocky mountain, but approach slowly not to alert Sidon in case Yona is still there. I tiptoe past some bushes to maximize stealth, and see Sidon hunched over on the ground with his face on his knees. Is he... crying?

Sidon:

I cry (tearless) as I think what could have happened. Yona probably saw Link coming. That's why she must have kissed me! Why did Muzu have to get me engaged with her. I NEVER wanted to be with Yona. These thoughts infuriate me. My crying intensifies. I would hate if anyone saw me in this moment of weakness. But as soon as that thought crosses my mind, a small figure. A Hylian, plops down next to me.

"I'm sorry for acting that way when I saw you and Yona. It wasn't right." Link has a few tears running down his face.

"It's certainly okay. I'm sorry about it too." I uncurl myself and hug the little Hylian. 

"Can you... kiss me again?" Link's face turns red. Did... he just ask me to kiss him?

"Certainly." I whisper. I bring his face to mine. We lay down. And then go for it. I leave a trail of kisses from his lips to his collarbone. I want to go further but I stop myself. He giggles. I do to.

"Your good at this." Link is still giggling.

"Thank you. That means a lot to me." I reply. But it's over to soon. He rolls of of me and into the grass.

"Thank you. I haven't that good of a time in a while." He pulls me in for one last kiss. "Well anyway, I have the scales. Do you have any idea of what the 'Island of the Sky-Fish' might be?"

"Maybe that island that looks like a giant fish in the sky." I reply with a chuckle.

"You know what, your probably right." Link laughs back. He puts on his Zora armor and hurries to the waterfall leading to the island. I watch him swim up to the sky. Not nearly as fast as a Zora, but definitely good for a Hylian.

Link:  

I search around the island but I don't see a droplet amongst the rubble that floats around the island. But some luminescent green rocks catch my eye. I stand in front of them and they make a familiar shape. A droplet! So then, I attach a scale to an arrow, and shoot it through the droplet. It sails through the sky  and into the water. Then a beacon of light emerges from the sea. Sidon can certainly see it from the ground. I swiftly glide back to Polymus mountain with my paraglider.
