Hyrule Adventures 2

As you come up to the hillside on the border of the forest, you spot a figure slowly walking around at the base of the rise. Getting closer, you realize that it is Shada, whistling as she hangs several newly washed clothes on a line between two trees. She stops and turns as she hears your approach. Her braid swings behind her back as she turns, and you spot a few bandages wrapped around her arms. Other than that she appears unscathed, which is surprising given that she had participated in the battle with the Hakiems a few days ago. She greets you with a beautiful smile. “Hey, how are you? Anything I can help you with?”

"Yeah, where's Alpha?" the hooded zora says, his face hidden in darkness. Julian's eyes spy the girl's injury. "Oh, and how was the fight? I'm sorry I couldn't make it. Heh, heh..." The zora, reveals himself. His eyes digging deep into his skull, like black pearls latched onto his face. His smile, wide as he glances at the girl's eyes.

'I wonder if she knows about what happened.'

"Oh hey! You're...Julian, right?" Shada says happily as she remembers the Zora. "I honestly don't know where Alpha's gone off to. I think he was heading towards the desert last I saw him.

"And as for the fight...well, that was, um, hard fought. But we won, in the end. It's probably better that you weren't there...otherwise the Hakiems would have marked you as a target as well."

'The desert. He's still waiting for me.' The mage thought to himself, a slight chuckle escaping him. "You won. That's good to hear. Well, it was nice seeing you again...Shada, right? I have to leave. Someone is waiting for me at the desert. Heh, heh, heh..." With a quick bow, the zora heads North, a light melody following him as he hums to himself a little tune.
