[She always liked the rain. There was something about the calming sound of the falling raindrops, about the soothing cold that always accompanied it, that led to her always leaving the inn during rainfall. It was always a nice way to think of something else; to stop focusing on her job for a moment and to instead explore the area a little. Somehow

[Din is sitting in the field, actually not moving for a change, and winding stray daisies into a crown. The spirits of spring have well and truly awoken, and it makes her happy. Of course, before too much longer, it will be time to summon the spirits of summer.]
[She looks up when her friends, the earth spirits, whisper that someone is approaching. What a pretty woman...but she looks lost. Din watches curiously for a moment, then waves.]
Hello there!

[Anju waves in response - while she doesn't recognize the woman, she seems like a friendly person, not someone she ought to be wary of. And who knows, she may know a little more about the area.]
Oh, hello, miss! [She bows a little. She may not be at the Stock Pot Inn, but it simply seems more courteous of her to do this.] You wouldn't happen to know if this place is still a part of Termina Field, would you? It doesn't look like any part of it I've been in before...
[While she may be lost, she doesn't seem to mind too much...]

Hello there. [Din's not much on formality, but it's not the first time someone has bowed to the demigoddess, so it doesn't even faze her. The word 'Termina' catches her attention, however.]
Termina Field? No indeed, you're in a place called Hyrule now. This is a bit of a strange world we're in, I'm afraid; it seems to like to kidnap people from other places and times, and bring them here. I'm one of them myself -- I come from the country of Holodrum. What's your name? I'm Din.

Oh, I'm sorry, I should've introduced myself first... My name is Anju. I'm pleased to meet you, Miss Din. [She pauses for a moment, thinking a little about what she was just told.]
Hyrule? I don't think I've ever heard of this place before, or of a place called Holodrum. This is quite a strange place if people from completely different areas suddenly appear here... [How would that even be possible? A world that pulls people from other worlds? She's gonna be wondering about that for a while, but in the meantime...]
Say, Miss Din, this Holodrum you're from... What is it like? I'd like to know a little more about it, if you don't mind telling me. [Finding an answer to the other questions will be more difficult, so maybe it's better to find out more about where other people are from. Hope you don't mind some questions, Din!]

[Well, what do we have here? Shadow can't say he's ever seen this person before, though in retrospect, he's only really seen a fraction of the people in Hyrule. For a little while, he just floats quietly behind her, a bit curiously. Then, his feet hit the ground, and he's suddenly walking in stride next to her.]
Who're you?

[Congratulations, you have a very confused Anju looking at you, Shadow. She doesn't remember seeing anyone else walking her, let alone so close to her... but he looks familiar, somehow. Did she meet this boy before and simply forgot his name? Hmm...]
Ah, I'm sorry... do I know you? You look familiar...
[Being a little wary can't hurt around strangers, let alone ones that suddenly appear walking next to you out of nowhere, even if they look familiar. So no name for you, Shadow! ...Yet, anyways!]

Nah, haven't met you. Heh...there's other people around here that look like me, though.
Well? [He pries again, folding his arms and raising an eyebrow.] What's your name, huh?
Reply
[She bows slightly in apology.] Oh, I'm sorry... My name is Anju. And what might your name be...? [Apparently the force of old habits is stronger than wariness could ever be. Don't mind her still looking a little confused, Shadow - you just look incredibly familiar to her. Mun blames the outfit and hair.]

Anju?
[ooc: WELL HELLO THERE. Have a husband. ...I apologize for his jerkitude and cheating ways. orz]

...I SHOULD PLAY SKULL KID EVENTUALLY OR SOMETHING. Yes. That sounds like fun. Should consider that. Maybe. Hmm.]
[Hyrule Field was quite big, even in comparison to Termina Field. Not that Anju would be aware of this yet, but hey. It being so large had its perks, though: lots of things to be discovered! At least for someone who's never been there. For now, Anju stopped next to the river for a moment, twirling her parasol a little, though the sound of a very familiar voice manages to catch her attention. Wasn't he supposed to be with some of the other townspeople today...?]
Kafei...? What are you doing here?
[It's a welcome surprise, however, even if it is rather unexpected~]

[The castle, the field, and the rain were all made meaningless by Anju's presence. Kafei was completely distracted by her: her eyes, her lips, her voice, the delicate pose of her hands. This... was real, wasn't it? The last time he'd spoken to her... that had been real too, hadn't it? Or was it all just imagined? Why did he always meet her in the rain?]
I was heading to the castle. [Kafei answered immediately, out of rote. Wasn't HE supposed to be asking HER that? When had she gone into the field, and why? Was he going crazy? What was going on?]
Where have you been? You suddenly vanished and left me wondering.
Reply
[It's an interesting coincidence, isn't it? Always during the rain. Then again, rain is when Anju tends to go outside, after all...]
Castle...? [What castle? She didn't remember any castles. Not in Clock Town, not in what little of Hyrule she had seen so far, and it was unlikely that he meant the Castle of Ikana...]
It was raining, so I decided to take a walk over to Romani Ranch, but I think I got lost along the way...
...but why are you here? I thought you said you were going to spend the day with some of your friends? [Mutual confusion, oh my. This could be troublesome.]
