POV: Zella

     The next day I got up for breakfast before I got all my things together and told the owner of the Inn that sadly I had to go. She told me that with me having been singing here as helped her more than anything and she hope to see me around the next time I come by. But sadly I don't think there will be a next time, not when I don't feel safe being near the castle. 

     Ones I was out the door I went to go got  Shadow out of the Inn's stable. When I found him in the stable I got him ready to leave, then onto his back I go. Shadow wasn't very happy to have to get up this morning but after a few apples he was ok. I looked up to the sky and seen that it was 7:00 am by the time we were ready to leave.

     After I had shadow walk away from the East Twin Inn I got out my map to see were to go from here. As I was Looking at the map I see that the path to the Rito Village will take me though the snow and then to Hyrule Ridge. If I go that way I'll be able to go see Satori Mountain then from there I could go to Lurelin Village. I believe that's where Jenna said she lives at in one of our conversation.

     I had Shadow go though central square to the west gate of castle town. As we made it to the gates the guards had us stop for a moment so that a cart or two could go though. When the carts were out of the way the guards let me go though. From what was on the map there is a small village in front of the Carok Bridge called 'Carok', named after the bridge. I'll have to stop there for the night before going off to the Serenne Stable.

     As I was making it pass the quarry ruins, (they hadn't started to fit it up yet?), I remembered a song that Zelda's dream sounds simmer to. How did it go again? I think it was;

"Ohohohoho~
So, shall we begin?

Once upon a time, lying in another place
There stood a kingdom that no others dared to face
Sitting, dainty, upon the throne
A fourteen year old lady ruled the kingdom on her own

In the lap of luxury, surrounded by the best
Her faithful servant who was different from the rest
Josephine, her most beloved horse was named
Everything worth anything, her majesty had claimed

Haven't any money, then you need not bat an eye
Just pluck it from the hands of those yet bound to die
Those who somehow sought to stand and go against her word
Their execution wouldn't go unheard

Now! Bow down to your Queen!

Hidden in the dark, an evil flower blooms
Lovely petals, faintly dripping with doom
Dancing in a garden full of slowly dying weeds
Echoes of their cries become the power that she needs

Her heart was longing for what she had hoped to be
A dashing prince of blue from far across the sea
But, someone already had hold of his heart
A pretty girl of green threatened to tear her dream apart
Overcome with jealously, she soon became obsessed
She called the minister, to give him one request
With a quiet voice, she made her orders clearly heard
"I want to see that wretched kingdom of green burn."

Many homes and buildings quickly faded into ash
So many lives were stolen away in a flash
As their painful cries for help were silenced in the blaze
She sat smiling, not even fazed

"Oh! Is it tea time already?"

Hidden in the dark, an evil flower blooms
Lovely petals, faintly dripping with doom
Even though its beauty is enchantingly demure
The thorns all hiding underneath are anything but pure

A plan arose to bring the kingdom to its knees
The people came together, all against the Queen
Marching the masses across the land
A lady in red armor lead them with her sword in hand

All of the anger that she caused throughout her time
Engulfed her kingdom, as their livelihoods declined
Growing ever tired of a never-ending war
The thought of crossing soldiers didn't scare them anymore
