[Captain Viscen slowly awakens. He has a throbbing headache, but that seems to be the least of his problems--he doesn't recognize anything about the place he now finds himself in. It has a familiar feel to it, but it is certainly not Clocktown. Confused, he tries to think back what happened before he passed out. He remembers...telling his men they ( Read more... )

[On her way to find the Kokiri Forest, Saria has stumbled upon Castle Town. She has encountered so few people recently, that seeing the appearance of this man was almost comforting. However, he seems very distressed over something.]

I can hear you! ...

Um... Is something the matter, sir?

[Viscen jumps at her voice, then spends an embarrassing moment looking for her before he thinks to look down. She is a mere child. Viscen kneels to put himself on her level and gives her a weak smile.]

I am simply lost, child. Do you know the name of this place?

Hm... Well, this land is called Hyrule, but I don't know the name of this town.

[She frowns, knowing that's not entirely the answer he was expecting]

I'm sorry! I'm a bit lost too...

[He smiles kindly at her hesitation. He would not have expected a child to know such things, anyway.]

Well, that's all right. Do you know the name of the place where you live? Maybe we can find it together.

[He feels considerable unease at the fact that she is wandering alone.]

[Saria smiles. She's happy that this new person she's met is friendly.]

I live in the Kokiri Forest! ...But that seems to be kind of far away from here.

[She looks at him curiously.]

But where are you from?

[Viscen stands up and offers her his hand.]

Well, if you know the direction, we can certainly go look for it.

I am from a land called Termina. Perhaps you have heard of it?

[Then, as an afterthought:]

Oh, how rude of me! I am Viscen, Captain of the Guard. What is you name?

[Saria takes the offered hand, and smiles.]

Well, I think it's... south from here? South...east, I'm pretty sure.

Termina? Hm... I don't think I have. I wonder where it is?

[As he states his name, Saria nods politely.]

Nice to meet you, Captain Viscen! My name is Saria.

[Hand in hand, Viscen starts leading her out of Castletown.]

I'm sure we'll find it, then.

[Now that he's with her, he can't stop smiling. Viscen has always loved spending time with children.]

Saria is a very pretty name. Are you named after your mommy?
