I think I fell asleep without even knowing it. All I remember is me, shaking, trembling, crying on the floor, crawling like a poor child; almost throwing up. I remember the shadows surrounding me... I think it happened to me again... Ugh. It's not surprising. I always get these crisis when I'm too stressed, or exhausted, when I pushed myself too hard... But why did I push my body throught so much anyway ?

All the training, all the days I've spent in the cold. All these efforts, these times when the elder would come take me back home in his wings because I'm part frozen, my muscles can't move me anymore because of overtraining or due to fatigue and lack of food... But why ? Why did I do all of this? Well, I thought I could become someone great. Someone important. I finally became the best archer to be ever known. Then I achieved one of my goals. I began to be loved in my village. I became popular and admired. Finally I gained the respect I deserved. But it wasn't enough. I wanted to be known all over hyrule and beyond. So I continued to work harder and harder... Maybe then HE could see me and notice that he was wrong about his son... I remember him saying I was a weak when Mother died. I was (and still am) shorter than most of the young Ritos of my age and he dispised me for this. He was telling me I wasn't normal. Maybe if he could've seen me now... He would come back.

But now.. NOW, I don't know anymore. I don't even know what to think of me. I kind of failed to this task since the Princess is against me. I'm still the Rito champion, I suppose... But it's not like I would've planned. "What am I going to do, Cojiro ? "

 "What am I going to do, Cojiro ? "

I bring my plushie wherever I sleep so I'm not alone in the dark... But I must hide it in some way : I would be judged if seen with him.

I went to the village today. My mask on, of course. Today was a day-off. I'll try to think about something else and who knows, it would get better ? So I put Cojiro in a safe place and flew off 'home'. I didn't even put my armour on today. Just some traditionnal Rito clothings. When I arrived in front of my house, Mipha was there... Wait. Mipha ?

-M-mipha ?

- Oh, here you are. Good morning, Revali.

Hylia help me : it's happening again. What's wrong with me ? Each time I'm close to her, I become crazy. My heart is racing, the temperature climbs up drastically. Is this love am I feeling ? I think it is... But don't give you hopes, Revali...Just act normal.
