Before you towers the massive Temple of Nayru, largest site of worship in all the Kingdom. It gleams white in the sun with sky blue tiles adorning the roof and towers. A massive statue of Link is erected in the middle of the small plaza just outside the doorway, with a shining white sword held in his hand.

In Hylian script, just over the massive wooden doors, is inscribed "Temple of Nayru."

Outside the temple he walks. He strides by the fountain, and stoping and looking into the water, he smiles. You see him turn swiftly and look to the sky, folowing the flight of a trio of sparows that he must have seen in the waters surface. He closes his eyes and smiles bathed in sunlight, he turns his scared palms up towards the sun.
eyes still closed he places his bag on the ground and kneeling beside it he removes a cirlce of green cloth. Smoothing it on the paving stones in front of him he kneels on it and facing east he bows and places his forehead on the circle of cloth, head rested on his palms...

He begins to chant

I am one with Faore, I am one with the Goddesses. I am have no eye, no ear, no nose, no tongue, no body, no mind, no shape, no sound, no color, no flavor, no feeling. I am without self. I am only the will of Faore

He rises and removes from the bag a small candle, an iron stand, and a ceramic bowl. He places the stand over the candle and the bowl on the stand. Lighting the candle and reaching into the leather bag around his neck he removes small grey-green cone. He places it in the bowl, and you can smell the scent of sweet herbs. Rosemary, thyme, camphor. He continues to chant...

I am one with Faore, I am one with the Goddesses. I am have no eye, no ear, no nose, no tongue, no body, no mind, no shape, no sound, no color, no flavor, no feeling. I am without self. I am only the will of Faore...

Arco pauses to take in the sights of North Castle's Temple Quarter. He sniffs slightly--an action that might be seen as scornful, but in this case the blank look on his face ensures (practically guarantees) that it was probably an honest, single-dimension sniffle.

In fact, it must have been the camphor of that man over there. He listens to the man sing. He watches people chatting as they move in and out the temple. He studies the statue, and wonders, I wonder who made the first statue?

Losing interest in the scene, he continues walking.

I am one with Faore, I am one with the Goddesses. I am have no eye, no ear, no nose, no tongue, no body, no mind, no shape, no sound, no color, no flavor, no feeling. I am without self. I am only the will of Faore...

Pende had stumbled onto the temple to hear someone singing. Pende couldn't start to imagine lacking all those things, but it sounded painful for some reason. The notion of being totally consumed by someone elses will.

Denning neals near the front of the Temple after speaking with the princess. He is in prayer speaking in ancient Hylian.
OCC: If you do not speak Ancient Hylian, dont try to under stand!
IC"Uryan, I yarp taht Niram seod ton od gnihtemos diputs, ekil edicius, I yarp rof rewop ot pelh elpoep, dna evers uoy retteb. Nemha."

Rugger walks slowly into the Temple. It has been a whole year since he last ventured inside these walls. He kneels down at the platform. He remembers how he came in here saying that there was no such thing as the Godessess.

'How ignorant I was' Rugger thinks to himself as he continues to kneel asking for the Goddessess forgiveness and strength.

Outside...

Eyes still closed, still kneeling, Sheng Long kneels for a full hour, silent. Finally he moves; daubing his fingers into the small ceramic bowl where the incense cone has burns, he scoops up the grey green mixture and spitting in it mixes it in his palm, where it takes on a pale olive color. with his other hand he applies the mixture to his face. A wide straight line under his from the base of his mouth to his throat. Another, shorter line, from each his cheek bones to his ears, with a smaller more narrow one beneath those. Two short lines from his hair line to each eyebrow, and another from his widows peak, down the length of his nose.

He rises and packing up his things turns to look on the square. He smiles. There! A suitable chance to make an offer to Farore. He strides across the square to a young woman, long brown hair in soft curls, large blue-grey eyes, walking up the steps of the temple. standing behind her, he reaches out and takes her wrist. She turns, startled. He smiles at her and speaks:

Lady, I am afraid. I fear. But I have come to you, the most beautiful woman here to ask for a favor. I am new here and do not know your ways, but I ask that you give me a kiss. I ask this, honestly, telling you I am afraid to receive your answer; whatever it may be...

OOC: someone else do me the pleasure of giving her response?

Leon strides over to the Temple Of Nayru.He says cheerfully,"Hello there,Arco!And Rugger!And..."he was suddenly silenced as he watches Sheng Long take the hand of a lady,and sits down by the statue,saying,"Wow,Link is as famous as the people here told me.".

The cleric enters the temple, his white robes glow in the sun, he aproches the alter and neals, he says a silent prayer. Giving praise to the godesses, you think, since he is a cleric. As he gets up you see him mouth a word...Evan...then another...Marin...more and more...Mark...Daret..Narna..Ferlia...they must be people he knows. He stands tall and strikes his staff on the ground. As he leaves you hear him say."Evan, I hope your well."

It is a few paces of walking before Arco realizes that his name has been called. He turns his head first--slowly--and his body follows.

He looks up to the sky, as if he had forgotten what he'd turned for. That is, until he finally drops his gaze and takes a few steps towards the taller man.

"Lee-awn," Arco pronounces after some recollection. Some thought. Leon from the North Forest, a few days ago? "Hello," he adds. There's not much more from him. Studying Leon, he follows his gaze towards the shirtless man near the temple steps.

someone else do me the pleasure of giving her response?

The woman, taken aback by this offer from a complete stranger, stumbles around the words. Her eyes grow extremely wide, she begins to turn a deep red, and she looks away for a few seconds. She had to be thinking, wondering why she couldn't address this man. Looking back at him, she sees his strong, brave form.

That's what hooked her, she kept thinking about how brave this man had to be just to walk up and just straight up ask for a kiss. She decides nothing that bad could happen. Leaning over toward him, his scent enters her nostrils, and she smiles. As she approaches him, her eyes light up, and you aren't sure if she's happy or scared. Finally after a long while, her lips touch Sheng's and there is an unexplicable rush...

The moment is long and his heart sings. Her lips are warm, smooth, and dry. She pulls away, and he, red beneath his green paint, smiles. He falls to one knee on the steps of the temple. bowing his head, he says:

I thank you, Lady. You have given me a great gift, and a I offer the courage it took me to ask you this to Farore. But to you, I offer my service...
And with this he looks up from the ground to her blue-grey eyes, a wide smile on his sharp features.
and my heart.

Julian, sitting on a nearby bench, watches with narrowed eyes Sheng and the beutiful woman that has so openly decided to embrace the nomad. The zora's face is expressionless through the time of the event. Uncaring, he walks away making sure to remember this event as he might meet this strange nomad again.

Lady Nayru, Mother of Wisdom, hear me, I beg. Grant to me thy knowledge, that I might smite the foes of Hyrule with magic. Grant to me thy patience, that I might better understand my eventual comrades. Grant to me thy serenity, that I might not panic in combat. Grant to me thy love, that I might find rest at night, free from the terrors the invasion and war brought upon me. In Thy Name, Shai Tairas.
(Aside): Shai tairas means "Amen" at the end of a prayer, according to the version of Hylian posted at Kasuto's Zelda Realm.

Azador walks to temple and prays fore a statue of nayru. He asks to the statue, is there is a way to bring back my brother. Somewhere he heard yes. azador looked around but he sees nobody, strange he thinks, it was just like the statue talked to him. He thanks the godess and walked out of the temple
