[The skies are dark and overcast, and chilled snow drops quickly from the clouds above, down onto the Kakariko Graveyard. It's fitting, perhaps, for a place of the dead. Living souls, however, are not too terribly fitting for a place of the dead.]
[A man walks slowly, carefully, across the graveyard, snow crunching loudly beneath his worn, battered boots.]
The air is different here, [he murmurs, continuing forward at a deliberately cautious pace.]
It's colder...is that snow?
[His foot bumps against a grave marker, and he kneels down, running his hand against the side of the cold stone. He shifts his position a little, so he then faces the front of the tombstone. He gently presses his gloved hand against its middle, tracing a finger against the Hylian words engraved there. He then stands.]
A graveyard...? Curious. But what graveyard is this?
[A soft sigh escapes his lips.]
How have I ended up here, anyway? This place is clearly different than home.
[His eyes; blue, yet stained with red, flicker unsteadily, as though unfocused.]
I'll simply have to find out why this has happened, then, won't I? [He places his hand on the top of the tombstone again, and begins walking down the row of grave markers once more.]
[ooc: This guy's an AU Link, who also happens to be blind.]
