Like a hurricane

I'm getting higher and higher. I slowly get to fly again. Tuhiana tried to make me eat something as I won't have enough energy, but I don't care. I'm raising myself higher at every turn, it's not the time to take a break. I'm a Champion. I'm a ruler. I'm the Ruler of the sky. Like me or not, the others will be out of breath when they see me tomorrow. Yes, I said tomorrow. I'll fly all night. Fly until I can use Revali's gale. 
I'm a champion. I can do anything. I still believe they need me. Hyrule needs me. Things will go way faster once I get there. 

The sun as already set. But it doesn't stop me either. Rito see in the dark. And I'm no exception. I'll be even stronger that I was. There's no stopping me now-

"Revali ! I made some Salmon Meunière to get your fluffy butt back here !" 

Purah is waving her hands, waiting for me to join the dinner. Well, I guess that is a good excuse to take a break. I prefer not to piss her off. She's quite scary when she's mad.

"So, big bird. Is it working ?" 

- My training ? Yeah it's working amazingly ! I can feel I'm getting stronger ! By tomorrow, I'll be good enough to join them. 

I think she senses something is odd about my voice, because she asked : 

- You're nervous to see them, huh ? Something has been bugging you for a few days. 

I was shocked. She added :

- What did that brat tell you ? She doesn't know you, she doesn't know them ! Don't listen to her. 

- She... Just said that they didn't seem to really care for me. And that I could've joined earlier and they just tossed me aside. 

- Have you seen your state ? Of course they let you here to recover ! You weren't able to walk ! 

- How do you know ? 

- The letter Zelda wrote me when she asked for a plaster for you. She said you had trouble staying awake for a whole day. Of course they wouldn't have kept you with them ! It was dangerous ! 

- ... Hmm... I guess you're right. I was in a bad shape, back home. 

- That's it. You kept sleeping on Fishie, as well. 

I fluffed up : "What did she tell you that as well ???" 

- Images are sometimes better than words.... Hehehe !

She opened the envelope and showed me a photograph of ME, sleeping on MIPHA'S SHOULDER ! 

"HIDE THAT THING IT'S A MENACE TO MY REPUTION !" 

- Oopsie, Robbie already saw it. 

- I will kill you, Purah... 

She laughed : "Hush hush hush, burb ! It is the price for having your wing back !"

- Ugh... Okay then....

Later on, I pursued my training. I'd glide over and over again. I want to see them again. I miss them. I'm mixed between Tuhiana's sayings, but comforted by Purah's.  It's true. I was too frail to work with them. But now I'm better. And I'll join the fight....

*** The next day, in the evening ***

It's working ! It's working ! I manage to fly ! No gliding anymore ! I wander in the sky like a bird set free. I feel the wind through my whole body. I'm keep getting higher and higher, to dive down at full speed. The thrill is so heavenly good to feel again ! I see Impa, Purah and Robbie in the village, staring at me as I keep diving and going up high over and over again. I have a rush of adrenaline.
