King Sidon finally got me to meet with a possible husband for me, after much debate. One Saturday at 11 am, he had dinner with the man, who was a pink skinned eighteen year old named Caliupi. King Sidon told him about my strength, my intelligence, and my beauty. He also warned him about my strange love and infatuation of monsters. I didn't feel they were monsters. I still don't.

A day later, Lady Slieha started helping me get ready by bathing me in warm milk, and washing my face and legs. Me and her embraced as she helped me put on Mipha's old clothing more beautifully. She hugged me and said "I can't believe your finally sixteen, and meeting a suitor!" I walked out of the room, and met the gaze of Caliupi. Our eyes softened at each other, and he muttered under his breath "The king wasn't lying..."

He was fun, I took a liking to him, and he took a liking to me. We got to talking about poetry, literature, and legends. He asked If I could dual, and I nodded, asking if he would like to dual. He nodded and said "Meet me outside." We had great fun as we dueled with silver long sword, which I ended up winning.

After he all this, we sat on shatterback point, under the stars. Saie lay down, so that we layed on him. We looked at the stars, and I leaned on him. He touched my soft lips, as I said "I want to see you again, Caliupi." "As would I, Milafi."

After hours, I went back to Zora's domain, with a happy grin. King Sidon asked if it was meant to be, which i responded to by saying, "Father, he is very nice... but I'm not sure." King Sidon held my hands, before saying "Milafi, you have found a possible prince to join you as Prince when you become a queen, soon we will have the ceremony... when I shall abdicate the throne, and when you shall be a queen, and will meet with Link, and Pilot Vah Ruta. Im so proud of you, my snow white flower."

His speech made me cry a little bit, but other than that, I was very excited to rule the Zora, and be a modern champion. As i was thinking, King Sidon said "You'll be as great as Lady Mipha." That line made me angry. I felt as though I could never get out of her shadow.
