Y/N POV

......
*KNOCK KNOCK*
......

I heard 2 knocks on my door early at about about 8 am.
My dazed, sleepy self, could only mumble a silent "Mhmm?" In respond to the person knocking.
I slowly turned around shifting the warm blankets to make sure they were still around me nicely before opening my eyes slightly. I saw a sliver of Dark Link walking into the room.

He shushed reassuringly and said "Close your eyes, it's fine, you can go back to sleep. I just wanted to tell you I was going to be out for a while today."
He told me.
"Why?" I slowly responded, eyes still stinging from just waking up.
"I just have something to do." He walked over and patted my head making me close my eyes fully once again.
"Okay..."

"Oh and one last thing" he said
"Please stay in here while I'm gone." That was the last thing I heard before hearing him close the door.

Time skip about 4 hours>>

I slowly opened my eyes and saw a crack of sunlight coming through the center of the closed curtains. I removed the warm blanket that covered me then sat up on the edge of the bed, letting my body get used to the cold air.
At last, fully awake I stood up, itched my head, and yawned. Walking over the the chair next the the fireplace I grabbed my F/C tunic and changed into it. Finally I slipped my boots on.

I looked around the room and noticed that a side table had been added. Not only that, but there was a plate that had 2 pieces of bread wth some butter next to them.
Dark must have dropped it off. I thought.
I grabbed the plate, sat down, then ate the food.

I grabbed the doorknob, but right before I opened the door I remembered something.
Please stay in here while I'm gone.

At that moment, I removed my hand from the doorknob.
That's right... Dark told me to stay here while he was gone...
I thought for a while before coming to the conclusion.

I'm sure he wouldn't mind if I just took a short tour of his castle. Anyway, who knows how long he'll take.
Grabbing the cold doorknob, I twisted it hearing a quiet click, then slowly opened the door. Poking my head out of the room I checked if any workers were around.
Wait, why am I doing this? I'm just taking a tour. Ha.

I corrected my stance from "sneaking" to "everyday normal" and walked out of my medium sized room. As I stepped out I felt a small pang of guilt for going against what Dark Link had requested of me.

Ignoring it, I decided to walk down the right side of the hallway and head downstairs. I walked towards the stairs then began walking down them. Once I reached the...

Wait, how many floors does this castle have anyways? Make note to ask Dark. "How many floors does your castle have?" Okay, anyway, I should see what else is in the eating area here. Sounds like a plan.

Ending my little mind conversation, I went towards the 2 big dark brown doors that led into the dining area. When I opened the doors, a loud groan ignited from the doors.
Oh my gosh, how old are these!? I thought jokingly and giggled a little bit. I had to stop myself by covering my mouth.

Walking into the room I observed the surroundings, seeing if there were any places to explore.
There it was!! A small door in the far right of the room. I jogged over and opened it, entering impatiently, desperate for some adventure.
Glancing around the room for a short 3 seconds I discovered that it was a kitchen I had found.
It was a small kitchen for such a big castle, although they could have more. There was a wooden island in the middle of the room and counters connected to each other on all 3 walls except for the wall with the door. The floor was a smooth grey stone like the rest of the castle, and the walls the same shade but in bricks.
