It was raining. I was soaked and I could not stop running. Everything looked so misty. I turn around...he's coming. No, no, no, no. Running was all I could do, all I can do but everytime he comes, everytime...my heart leaps. We all thought everything would get better after the Twilight Invasion was over but it had left some horror stories to tell. They kept coming, I had walked so many miles to Castle Town for this. I turn a corner, he's there so I go in the opposite direction.

What do they want? I already told them that the legendary hero had left Hyrule and no-one truly knows where he is. He's not in Ordon either. It was like he vanished off the face of the earth, he left us...thinking that peace finally returned but now, unfortunately, defiance rules. My thoughts go wild as I desperately try to disappear. This letter...it needs to go to a Telma. All of a sudden, I felt a choking sensation. His hand is around my neck. "What do you want?!!!" I yelled. His smile was dubious. It was like his trust in me was shattered. That's the thing, there was no trust, whatsoever. "You shall give that letter to me. When you do, I'll keep you alive."

As if it was a blur, an arrow flew into his arm and he dropped me. "Hurt him and I'll annihilate you right where you stand!!!" I gasped for breath. It was like breathing for the first time. I needed air. I crawled ferociously over to my saviour. "Now, you leave or face my arrows." A young woman came out of nowhere. "And my spear!!" The trumpet of the royal guards went off, they must have heard the commotion. I heard marching. "Aaah!!! I will return and I will not hesitate to..." They're nearly here. He disappeared. "Ashei, let's go!" said the loud voice. I felt overwhelming exhaustion come over me as my eyes slowly closed.
