Link and Sidon stand outside the small house made of grey stones and hay as roof.
The house is simple and work well as first house before you find a better place. Or haven't a family.
  About fifteen minutes Jonas shows up with large key in his hand.
"Here you are" he says and hands over the silver key to Link.
"Thanks" Link nods and grabs the key he has used many times.
He is really looking forward to live in his old house he grew up in.
Jonas shoots a look at Epona and starts petting her on her throat.
"I can take her to the royal stable if you want " Jonas suggests.
Link smiles.
"Sounds great, thanks... I will just..." he starts saying while he puts away the key into his pocket before he walks to Epona to untie her from the aquarium.
Sidon is looking at Link while he is untying the rope from the horse.
Then his eyes moves to the aquarium and to the door. Noticing there is no chance the aquarium will get through the small door.
It seems they have to leave the aquarium outside and take the children inside without the water.

The moment Epona is free and Link has taken off the bags, Jonas grabs the bridle and leads her to the stable.
Link suddenly notices Sidon's concern.
"What's wrong Sid?"
Sidon jolts and is looking asking at Link for getting called 'Sid'.
When he smiles a little before he shrugs and is looking serious again.
"Nothing special... It's just..." he glances against the door.
"The Aquarium won't get through the door... that's all..."
Link raises a brow and is looking curiously at the door and the aquarium.
"I thinks you have right..." he admits and sighs while some red and orange leaves shakes off from the tall birch to the right of the little house and are passing him.
"We must take the children into the house" Sidon decides.
Link nods.
Then he takes up the house key and unlocks the door.
The old wooden door creaks complaining when he swings up the door.
The inside of the house smells confined as no one have'd ventilated for a long time.
Link walks further into the house with the bags and is looking around.
It seems he has some cleaning to do.
Dust has laid as a sheet over furniture and his stuff.
The small living room has a fireplace with a big cauldron in it there he used to cook.
There is an armchair close to the fireplace with a small round carpet there you place your feet while you sit down.
Beside that, there is a pretty big table with four chairs. Made in wood.
Close to the table he has shelves he uses to store food.
They are pretty empty now except little flour who is probably too old and should be tossed away.
   Then there is weapons and Shields everywhere in the room.
Different types of weapons and shield he had found during his adventures there he killed some monster and picked up their dropped stuff. Or found chest there someone had hidden weapons into them.

Sidon has to kneels down a little to walk into the house though the door.
When he is inside the house he can stands upright. But has to watch out from some low wooden joists from the celling.
  Sidon clears his throat bothered of seeing the mess. But the weapons bother him mostly.
"Link... I hate to say this..." he starts saying, making Link to spin around and look confused.
"But we can't have weapons laying around there the kids can reach them... It's dangerous..." he explains.
Links eyes starts darting around, looking on all treasures he had gathered the years he have'd been the Knight of hyrule.
"You have right..." Link agrees against his own heart.
"I have a storage in the yard there we can keep the weapons" he suggests. He would never sell them. That would be too hard.
Sidon nods.
"Thanks hon' " he smiles.
"Are there a place we can have the children for now?" Sidon adds asking.
Link places down the bags on the floor and starts tapping his chin thoughtfully.
"Hmm... I have an extra mattress we can place on the floor in my bedroom"
"That works for now...thanks"
Link starts moving against the bedroom.
"You can keep an eye on the children while I fix the bedroom" he tells Sidon while he walks against the room.
Sidon nods.
"Sounds good..." he says relieved and doesn't want to leave the kids alone in case something would happen them.
