[She dances, of course. Din can't keep still. She needs no music; she has her heartbeat, the wind, the rustling branches. But a cry breaks the rhythm and brings her to a halt.]

[It's a mother robin. One of her babies has fallen from the nest and lies on the ground, injured and helpless. Din cradles the bird in one hand, resting the fingers of ( Read more... )

[he managed to log out at some point, but the memory of leaving and coming back into this area of the game completely escapes him. At least Din wasn't the only one who was confused by the scenery...

Speaking of which, he notices another player on the field and immediately makes his own player character run over to check up on her. Dressed in a decidedly different fashion from the other Heroes, it's hard to tell he's a Link.

Nearing, he slows down and looks at her oddly. A Shamanic Griot class, maybe? Have a concerned expression and headtilt, Din]

[ooc: omfg Din. &hearts SHE SHOULD MEET THE GODDESS VERSION OF HERSELF (also, welcome to the DR) ]

[She eyes the approaching figure curiously. She's met the Link of her time, of course, but the resemblance to that which approaches her is quite vague. So she hasn't a clue who this is.]

Excuse me...can you tell me where I am, please? I think I got lost in the woods, or something.

(ooc: Hee, thanks! And that would be awesome.)

[a confused blink before he shakes his head. Honestly, he doesn't know where he is either (other than it not being Sol Invictus). After a pause, he looks around before typing;]

» Someone mentioned that this was 'Hyrule'

[whatever that meant. There's an apologetic smile and a small shrug to accompany his answer. R-really, he did feel bad going from knowing enough to help out new players to... Being the equivalent of a newb again]

[ooc: wooo look at that tag fail. @_@ I lost track of my tags the other day, sorry for late]

Hyrule? How on earth did I get to Hyrule? I'm supposed to be in Holodrum!

[She looks distressed and a little annoyed under her worry.]

I've got to find my way back, my friends will be worried that I got kidnapped again.

[It's a girl... Wow, maybe wandering aimlessly is good for something after all, he thinks. She's gorgeous, like a Gerudo. Dark stares for a bit before deciding that he really should do something besides just standing and gawking.

[So he clears his throat and takes a couple of steps towards her.]

I guess I count as "anyone." [He smirks at his little joke.] Are you lost?

[ooc: Hello there.]

I think I must be. I...I was in the forest, which I know very well, but...this is definitely not it. I've never seen this part of Holodrum before, and I can't find my friends. Can you help me?

[He's not hard on the eyes himself. And this is the first time she's ever seen anyone whose eyes were the same color as her own. She smiles at him.]

(ooc: Hi!)

Holodrum? [That's a new one to him.]

Not sure how much help I'm going to be, 'cause this isn't Holodrum. This is Hyrule.

And before you ask, no, I'm not sure how you got here. None of us are sure how we got here. That said... [He winks.] I can still try to help.

H-Hyrule? [She blinks.] Well, that would explain the unfamiliarity. I've met the Princess of Hyrule, and that's where Impa is from, but I've never actually been here before this. Hrm.

[She digests the rest of his information as well as she can.] I see. Well, so much for asking questions, then. That said... [Mimicking him, she winks, and smiles again.] I'd be glad for the help. My name is Din, and you are?

[Leaning against a nearby outcropping with her arms crossed is a considerably taller figure. Her position is out of the dancer's direct line of sight, but she makes no move to look her way. Instead she merely scents the air and frowns.]

What are you?

(Hello, welcome! Sorry about Din's lack of social skills, she won't listen to me.)

P-pardon?

[Din -- the mortal Din -- looks around, baffled.]

Who said that?

(ooc: Hi! No worries, goddess!Din is amazing.)

[She closes her eyes and scoffs softly, somewhere between amused and annoyed. Pushing off the rock, she walks the five steps to bring them face to face and leans back again, idly staring.]

Mine was asked first, kid.

[She eyes the taller woman somewhat askance. There is power here, and she can sense it. Uncertain of quite what she's dealing with, but preferring not to be on the bad end of a smiting, she executes a delicate curtsey to the goddess.]

I'm an oracle. The sage of earth, keeper of seasons.

[... HOOOOO, DOGGIES! We got us a redhead!

[... A DANCING redhead! With tha clingy trousers and the glittery bangles, and--

[... And she a sweetheart, too! Lookit her tend that baby bird!

[Jake's heart ain't gone badump-badump this hard in a WHILE! Hooooo~eey~!

[Apparently, Epona's getting impatient wid his lallygagging, or else she really likes this dame, fer some reason, because she takes off toward her and Jake's gotta scramble to grab the pummel 'afore he falls. Not one to be so easily deterred, he quickly gets on his Cain't Lose smile an' rides tall an' gallant-like, tippin' his hat in greeting.]

G'day, ma'am! Enjoyin' the fine weather, I see!

[Some gals dun need much excuse ta bring out their summer best, but since this un's dressed a mite skimpy a mite early, maybe she'll let ol' Jake warm her up some?]

(OOC: Welcome! Pardon the repost -- snagged the wrong icon, thar.)

[Din eyes the approaching stranger appreciatively. She's never seen anyone dressed quite like this before, but that's not to say it's a bad thing.]

Good day to you too. This is good weather, although it seems to me it was warmer a short time ago. It looks like I've lost my way; you haven't seen a group of covered wagons in the vicinity, by chance? Or a small company of musicians and revelers? I didn't think I'd wandered off as far as all that, but...it looks like I have.

[She smiles up at him, sweetly.]

(ooc: Thanks! Sorry for the repost myself, I clicked post without saying hello.)

Covered wagons? Ma'am, I'd about hoot fer joy, if'n I saw such a familiar sight!

[Heeeeey! Maybe this filly's from his own neck of the woods! Well, dun that jes brighten Jake's day! An' if she a performer, that sure explains a lot... not that he's complainin!]

Say! Were you comin' or goin' to Castletown? Or one o' tha provinces?

(OOC: Not a prob, sug! And now, I'll do the kindly thing and explain sumthin' 'bout ol' Jake that may shock you {sarcasm, FTW!}... he a man-slut. Plain and simple. Thought I'd offer fair warnin', so ya can best prepare yerself.)

Castletown? I'm not familiar with that particular city -- at least, we've never performed there. And I'm not sure I've ever heard of any provinces in Holodrum.

[She shifts restlessly from one foot to the other.]

Not that I'm not enjoying the company, but I really ought to find my friends. Think you could help me? I'm sure they'd be glad to have you join us for supper, in exchange for returning their missing dancing girl.
