༄ "Tell me, do you ever feel a strange sadness as dusk falls?. . ." A middle aged man asked warmly; his voice hoarse and worn out. His gaze glistened while flowing over the calming fountain before them.
Those old, analytic blue eyes with a tint of faint green, possessed by that of a now weary warrior.
He didn't expect an answer—it was obvious—so he continued, "they say it's the only time when our world intersects with theirs." His words lingered in curiosity while he gently brought his eyes between his lap, where his fingers nipped at the sand. ". . .the only time we can feel the lingering regrets of spirits who have left our world."
'Left' was an understatement. He parted his lips at this; a sentence he was to let out was replaced by a small sigh. Staring at the waters once again, he spoke, "that is why loneliness always pervades the hour of twilight." He huffed, feeling foolish yet amused in himself. "But enough talk of sadness," he calmly averted his gaze towards his blue-eyed successor sitting beside him.
Yes, blue was the color. The idiosyncratic color that tainted this teeny village, if not blue then green was it. But his were different, identifiable by a mile away, their gleaming blue color brought light within themselves. . .along with a dark, lost, ocean blue.
"I have a favor to ask of you, Link."
Link quietly returned the gaze, smiling warmly. "I was supposed to deliver something to the royal family of Hyrule the day after tomorrow. . ." He predicted that Link perhaps already knew of the errand he was bound to set him, so he rapidly spoke, "yes, it was a task set to me by the mayor, but. . ." he paused, barely looking away from Link who kept his smile.
"Would you go in my stead?"
There was nothing but silence and the hushed wind whispering through the reflective dark green leaves of old sturdy trees. It was a breeze which faintly even caressed their fair skin, or flowed through their dirty blond locks. They kept eye contact.
As sundown was beginning to become so obvious that it could be felt, and the zephyr picked up a slight pierce of cold to it, he soon realized, "you have. . .never been to Hyrule, have you?" He questioned him with a subtle enthusiastic smile.
They faced away from one another and turned to watch the fountain again. "In the kingdom of Hyrule, there is a great castle, and around it is castle town, a community far bigger than our little village." Little it was, but Link had not known of more than where he's grown accustomed to—or at least that's what he's claimed. He showed a supposed hint of awe at the possibility, listening in to what more was to be said. ". . .and far bigger than Hyrule is the rest of the world the gods created," he finished explaining, leaving Link in what you'd think would be a slighter state of disbelief.
He turned over to find Link staring at him, a look that suggested incredulity in his words. He let out a short chuckle and a loving smile in which even his eyes closed in delight, "you should look upon it all with your own eyes." He slightly leaned back to gain strength in boosting himself forward, getting up from the ground. "It is getting late. . .we should head back to the village. I will talk to the mayor about this matter," he assured before walking off. Link brought his legs in and leaned his hands on his knees to bring himself up as well, taking a last glance at the short waterfall in Faron Spring before following after him.
