Attack of the Slightly Sodden Sheikah
[It's early in the day, the sun still low in the east and sending a slight gold sheen through the water. It's quiet in a lazy sort of way, the creatures surrounding Lake Hylia only beginning to stir.]
[The wind whispers with a hint of a warp song, the Serenade of Water reverbing through the walls surrounding the water. There's a faint blue-ish glow in the air.]
[Unfortunately for the person playing the warp song, the last note is just a little bit off, but the magic has already taken effect. The blue light sharpens, and a figure materialises on the island.]
[Or, rather, several metres from the island, resulting in a loud splash that shatters the silence.]
Plah!
[One slightly sodden Sheikah pops out of the cold water and shakes water out of his hair fiercely. All of the legendary cat-like grace of the Sheikah erased, he does an awkward doggy paddle back to the island. (True to his nature, now he just looks like a wet cat - all wounded grace and, "I meant to do that...")]
[There's a torrent of muttered swearing through chattering teeth as Sheik removes his sodden things, shaking water out of his flute and checking the bag of Deku nuts for damage. There isn't any, so he strips down to just his trousers, lays his belongings out to dry, and sets up a small fire, before stretching out under the sun to try to dry off (and hopefully warm up).]
Blasted warp song... blasted lake... blasted winter...
