I did't left my house for all the week now. I stayed in my hideout I have deep in the Hebra mountains, far from the rest of the world. I wasn't felling good enough to go out. It happens to me again. I don't eat, I don't drink. I hide like a child; a coward. I'm not good enough to be the Rito Champion ! I shouldn't go to this cringy meeting at Zora's Domain, but they may notice my absence and I don't want them to look after me. So I'll present myself to prevent any problems later. I have no dried food left anyway. I have to go outside. And who knows, maybe at Rito Village there is someone that needs me. someone that cares that I haven't been aroud for seven days. That's it : I'll prepare myself for tonight and then I'll be allowed to languish in this house, in my prison I made myself in my head because I'm so lame. There's no one that wants to see me this way ! "Just put the mask and it'll be okay, Revali." 

When I finally made it to the village, there was actually someone who asked me where I was during all this time. I bragged :" I was somewhere across Hyrule, y'know; doing Champion stuff !" The amazement in his eyes... *sigh* If only he could've seen me like that, too. 

I've spent the major part of the day on Vah Medoh. I wasn't hungry. I would eat tonight ayway. I tried to drink some water, since my beak and claws began to look deshydrated. I also put some acorn cream on them so they don't seem too bad. I must pretend I'm fine tonight. What about a good bath in the Hebra hotsprings ? I'd be relaxed . Yeah it's a good idea. It would ease my conscience. 

I tried but it didn't work. I feel as bad as I felt before the bath... At least I'm clean.

Mipha's point of view

It is time. The other Champions are supposed to be here really soon. Urbosa was first. She suspiciously checked around us. I asked :"Are you okay, Urbosa ? " She commented she was searching for Revali, since he's always first in every meeting. It's true. He always want to be first at everything. I think that's funny. Why worry about something so futile ? Finally, He came last to the dinner. Urbosa grinned :"Last, is it really Revali ?" She was joking, but dear Nayru you should've seen his face. He seemed destroyed inside. His eyes weren't those of the Cocky Revali we know : it was those of a glass broken, shattered. Those of a helpless child... What happened to him ?  Then he smiled :"I know, I had some things to do before I can come here.Sorry." What ? He looks normal now. Was it just my imagination ? His voice's a bit weird but maybe he got a cold recently. I'm confused. I feel like I'm the only one who saw this second of suffering in his eyes. 

He greeted everybody politely and then came in front of me. He began to sutter as he wanted to tell :"H-hey. How are you, Prin-cess ? It has b-been long time since we last saw e-each other. "I smiled. He smirked : "Poor Princess I'm sure you missed me a lot. " He was kind of sarcastic or something, I'm not sure. But there was a bit of insecurities in his mumbling. "That's why you made a meeting ?"I saw him hesitate to gently kiss my hand like he did on Zelda and step back. After, I led everyone at table. As we were waiting the first plate, we were talking about our Divine Beasts. Link asked me a few questions. I felt my cheeks warm up and my heart racing. He is so cute, so handsome !  Everyone was talking , excepting Revali. Personally, I think he is funny. They say he is hating on Link too much and he is a bit of a egocentric, but his reactions are so funny, watching him is amusing. And I don't think he's that enerving, he's okay. 

Revali's point of view

All I was doing was listening to others' conversation. Zelda was complimenting the decorations when Urbosa agreed they were cute. That kind of stuff isn't really interesting. Zelda then wanted Daruk to tell her a report of his work with Vah Rudania.
