Such a strange place this Hyrule has become... The monsters still yet remain, but it is silent as a graveyard, and empty as one, too.
[Sitting on the wooden bridge that expands across Lake Hylia is a strange, blue and white clad figure. Their legs dangle over its side, bandaged hands gripping the rough edge. The sun is high and warm, beating down painfully upon the rest of Hyrule. It is an exceptionally hot day, and the Lake, while not shaded, is still a good place to be at such a time.]
[But the stranger seems relatively un-bothered, tilting their head back to stare at the slowly drifting clouds, thin and fluff-like, as they pass overheard. But relaxed as they seem, the stranger is not entirely at ease.]
[Behind them, there is the familiar sound of something splashing up out of the water, and a purple Octorok fires a gray stone directly at the figure’s head. In a swift motion, they throw back their arm, bandaged wrist deflecting the attack. And in one more instant, the creature is bombarded with a shower of needles, and it squeals in pain as they hit with frightening accuracy. The creature shudders once, before disappearing in a puff of black smoke.]
[The person turns back around, surveying the watery area with a keen eye, in search of any more monsters that would dare to intrude in their solitude. Spying none, they lean their head back again, continuing to watch the clouds pass by.]
...I am not alone here, if my presence is only joined by that of the King of Evil’s minions. Shame that my fellow company couldn’t be more agreeable.
[ooc: Ruto-mun here, with yet another character~! This muse is a female Canon!Sheik. But as a quick note; most characters won't recognize her to be a female, as she's attempted to disguise herself as a man for the purpose of helping herself evade Ganondorf.]
