"_____? Where are you?" Sidon looked all over the domain for you but you seemed to be no where. Aurelia was already asleep since it was around 9 pm.

"Honey, I just wa-"

"Sidon!" You hugged him and he almost jumped as your sudden presence startled him.

"There you are. Where were you?" He kneeled down to your level and you started explaining your trip to him.

"...And it was like, huge, but Link defeated it quick. Oh! And we managed to come up with some better ideas for the plan!" You clasped your hands together with a smile. Sidon smiled too, happy that some things were figured out.

"So what are those better ideas?" He asked as you started heading for your room.

"Well, the royal guards said Link's about to wake up, so I can meet him at Hyrule Castle. You and the other descendents will head back to the Divine Beasts and attack frok there. They were checked, and the Ganon Blights aren't in them. And Bazz will tell us when their ready." Sidon simply nodded with a small sigh. Nothing could be guaranteed with the way things were going, and having to fight Ganon while raising a 6 year old isn't easy. Especially when both parents play a major part in the battle.

"Well then, we should get time together before this starts." Sidon sat on the bed and started removing some of his adornments. You closed the door and flopped down next to him, exhausted.

"_____ dear, you should go to sleep. You look exhausted." Sidon said, gently stroking your hair.

"But we should spend time together. I'll always have time to sleep. This could be one of our last nights together for a while." Sidon nodded and kissed your cheek.

"True... maybe we should get Aurelia in here then." Sidon suggested and you smiled and he went to get her.

He came back with the sleeping child in his arms, and carefully put her on the bed. She opened her huge (your eye color) eyes and looked at the both of you.

"Hey, Aurelia. Come here sweetheart." You held your arms open and she climbed into them. Sidon sat down next to you and put his left arm around you.

"How long do you think this will take?" You could hear the worry in Sidon's voice; worry that the plan wouldn't work. Worry that everything could crash in an instant.

"Shouldn't be more than a few weeks to end this. As long as everything goes according to plan." You took a few deep breaths and Sidon rubbed your back.

"Well, I believe in you. In us. All seven of us. We can push through." Sidon tried to be encouraging and you forced a smile.

"You're right."

*knock knock*

"King Sidon! Queen _____!" It was Bazz, so you told him to come in. "We just got news that we have to go now!" Sidon practically leaped out of bed to go get ready.

"Now? Why?" You asked, moving Aurelia off of your chest and putting her on the bed.

"The other descendents said that Ganon's getting stronger practically by the second, and that Queen Zelda won't be able to hold on much longer. Meet us at the entrance as soon as you can." Bazz left you and Sidon to get ready.

"So I guess this is it." Sidon said, putting his armor on. You got up and walked over to get yours too.

"It's now or never."
