~ Jordan's POV~

She looked sadly around her small corner of the INN all of their stuff had been stashed in, since the incidents with the berries and Link, they had basically stayed with Renado in case anything else had happened. Not that they couldn't look after themselves, but they had been there less than a month and a half and already three of their team mates had almost died. Jordan laughed quietly to herself thinking back to those moments and could help but imagine a tomb stone with the inscription "Here lie three idjits that didn't know the rules". She shook her head smiling at her own joke, blew out the oil lamp by the door and left the room.

~Jason's POV~

"Alright." He shouted over his group of friends trying to get their attention. Most everyone quieted down, but something sounding along the lines of watermelon-balloons was murmured from someone. "Guys. We've gotten as much training as we can, and as much as Link thinks we'll need, so now we need to head out and try to find who ever took Sky in the first place. Seto, for the last two or three weeks has been studying just about every bit of magic this land has to offer and believes he's come across an adequate tracking spell.

"However. Not everything he needs for it can be found here." He paused as Jordan joined the group, nodding to welcome her. "What is it you still need Seto?"

"I still need something called a tear of light an-"

"I don't know that you'll be able to find any…" Link grimaced

"What do you mean?" Jason asked, trying to hide the worry from his voice.

Link went on to explain how one came across tears of light and how he had already pieced back together the four beings of light, Faron, Lanayru, Eldon, and Ordana. Jordan chimed in offering some information about where they resided, one of them was literally right behind them in the small water pool in front of Renado's house, and how once repaired it would take immense amounts of extremely dark energy and magic to break them apart like they had been.

"And on top of all of that," she huffed " I don't think they would be super happy about twelve strangers to the land asking to take away some of their magic slash life force when we don't even know if we'll be able to return it intact."

Jason felt his hope shatter. He could see the hope of others falling apart too. Fluffy let out a low hollow howl then sank to the ground pouting. You didn't need to speak animal to know what that meant. A cough came from the middle of the group. Jason found himself looking at Harley who had his hand just barely raised.

"Yes Harley?" Jason started to gain back the slightest bit of hope.

"Well..." Harley stopped as everyone turned towards him. He panicked slightly. He didn't do very well speaking in front of a bunch of people and, considering he was the one to bring this trouble to them, he was worried they wouldn't trust him, or that they would judge him and shut him out. Harley clenched his hand, cleared his throat and started again. "Well, I don't know that that is entirely true…"

~ Harely's POV ~

That was when both the questions and the judgments started simultaneously. He just wanted to curl up into a ball and disappear. Instead he just stood there waiting for relative silence before answering the barrage of questions Link and Jordan had bashed him with. He told them about how when Link's shadow counterpart had brought him here, well not here specifically that he could remember but he knew he had come to Hyrule, he had heard talk of a fifth Light Spirit that had once taken place amongst the Hylian people.

He told them what he could remember about this Spirit, which wasn't much. Harley only knew that the spirit was ancient and wasn't around anymore because it had been so horribly damaged and torn apart, that just wisps of its tears were left. However he couldn't remember what the name of the Spirit was or where it had once lived.

Link stood with a blank expression on his face not believing what he had heard. In all of his time living in Hyrule he had never heard of a fifth spirit. It was impossible; surely he would've heard of it by now! Jordan stood with an equally blank expression on her face. Her head spinning trying to shuffle through all the lore she had read through and everything she had learned about the Zelda universe. Nothing. She couldn't find anything. An image of 'the blue screen of death' popped into her brain and the AOL screeching noise followed soon after.

Mitch reached over waving his hand in front of their stone faces.

"I think you broke them deary..."chided Janet from the back of the group. "But at the same time, it's pretty funny." Added in Brotato, which was promptly followed by a slapping sound and an 'ouch'.

Great, just what they needed. The only two people in their group, besides Harley who wasn't always a guarantee, that knew anything about the place, broken. Husky went to the water pool and dunked a cup into the liquid then promptly turned and threw it into Link and Jordan's faces. Both shook their heads and snapped back to reality.
They started to try and ask questions again but were just as quickly cut off by Jason.
"You guys can finish attacking Harley with questions later. Right now all we need to know is that there are tears of light. We'll figure out how to get them later." Link and Jordan reluctantly agreed. "Seto. What else do you need?"
"Well other than the tear of light, everything else seems relatively easy to find or get a hold of. Couple of different types of fish, certain type of moss, the blessing of a fairy; the more powerful the better. And three or four other items but they don't seem that hard to find."
"Alright. Good to know!" Jason clapped his hands together. "Let's finish up packing the cart and get a move on."

~ Jordan's POV ~
Soon they were doing one last sweep to see if they had missed anything, then everyone said their goodbyes to the kids, Barnes and Renado. Jordan and Link thanked a lady named Telma who had come down from Castle Town at their request to lend them her travel cart and horses.
"Oh it's no big deal dear." Telma smiled as she ruffled Link's hair, which he didn't seem too happy about but he smiled nonetheless, Jordan held back a laugh. "You just make sure you and your little friends there come back safely now. And don't forget to stop by my bar" she winked. They assured her that they would stop by if they were in the area and, after a bone crushing hug, made their way to the cart to begin the next crazy adventure.
