Who is your role model?

Did you know that a rolemodel can also be an enemy? Mine is... even though I think he fought for a really bad cause, he was one of my most perseverant opponents.

I was walking through the water temple, right, (I was an adult at this time,) and I entered a room that seemed to be made of reflections. Not reflections like you see in the mirror, but reflections off water. In the middle of the room there was a silver tree. There was no exit. I approached the tree cautiously, and suddenly before me was... me. Except, no, it wasn't me. It was a silver black version of me. As I stared at him, he lunged at me, his sword nearly cutting my throat. I blocked him just in time. We fought. I fought harder than I ever had... I felt like I was becoming one with time, and speed, and nature... and him. He matched my blade stroke for stroke.

When I finally managed to throw him down, I felt a strange sense of regret, not pride, even though this was the toughest opponent I had ever faced.

Yes, that is my rolemodel. Dark Link.
