[The feed comes on to the sound of rustling. After it dies down, the notes of Link's chosen song can be heard. There's something faintly gripping to them, like they leave a very beautiful, soft feeling of loneliness. He continues to play for over two minutes.

When he stops, he is silent for a moment before speaking.I suppose that's how this place

[tapferkeit]

I can play something happy if you want?

[theonlyteddie]

I'd like that.

[tapferkeit]

Okay - hold on...

[Shuffle shuffle... then Saria's Song plays.]

[wyvern_guardian]

I suppose it does feel a bit...

[ Melusine's voice trails off. There's a worried "Raowr?" from Ember, but nothing else. ]

[tapferkeit]

Yeah. It's very pretty, but it's so... lonely.

[wyvern_guardian]

Yes. Many things are. We all feel lonely sometimes...even when there are others around.

[tapferkeit]

Yeah, I know what you mean.

It's not bad to feel that way, though. It's only natural, sometimes.

[ Here's a song Zelda doesn't know. She always leans back and listens to Link's music with her eyes closed. ]

Mmmm, Demeleier has much the same aura as your song.

[voice]

[tapferkeit]

It just struck me there. This place... it feels like it's impenetrable, and that you have to turn things upside down to even begin to understand them...

[voice]

[forhyrule]

You may be right. This place cannot be understood through conventional means, try though we may to study it.

[ The literal implication of his words makes her laugh softly, seeing it in her mind. ]

[voice]

[tapferkeit]

... Have you ever heard of Stone Tower Temple, Zelda?

[kakolookiyam]

[He breathes in carefully, and does his best to level his voice, but there is an odd apprehension to his words.]

Very like, if it is as the last place I've been.

[voice]

[tapferkeit]

Then I'll do my best to figure it out.

[voice]

[kakolookiyam]

Do you know much music?

[voice]

[tapferkeit]

A few songs here and there.

[knightmare_hime]

[She breathes for a moment when it is over.]

...Beautiful. Did you compose it yourself?

[tapferkeit]

No... I heard it when I was thirteen.

I'm glad you liked it.

[knightmare_hime]

[He still looks thirteen.]

And what age are you now?

[tapferkeit]

Eighteen.
