Am I being punished once more? The Sages certainly have gotten creative.

[A pause]

Is there someone listening? Would you kindly tell me where I have ended up?

My destiny, Princess, is to be Hyrule's helm, directing her into a prosperous future. The detours I am forced to suffer will only make my victory that much sweeter.

[oblique-wisdom.livejournal.com]

I beg to differ. I am certain our definitions of 'prosperous' are quite a bit different. Victory should be used for the result in which Hyrule's people are happy, not ruled under fists of tyranny and oppression.

[destinedtorule.livejournal.com]

It only becomes tyranny and oppression when Hyrule's people refuse me my rightful place. I will not be refused, Zelda.

[oblique-wisdom.livejournal.com]

As though I would simply stand aside and let you do as you please. I will never allow my people to suffer at your hands again.

[destinedtorule.livejournal.com]

Then, by all means, come and stop me. I welcome it.

[oblique-wisdom.livejournal.com]

[Don't tempt her.]

You have no power here.

[destinedtorule.livejournal.com]

If that is what you choose to believe.

[oblique-wisdom.livejournal.com]

You will see for yourself soon enough.

[destinedtorule.livejournal.com]

Do you really believe I require magic to crush you, if I am so inclined?

[oblique-wisdom.livejournal.com]

I do not believe you would do any such thing, this... 'crushing' you speak of.

[destinedtorule.livejournal.com]

Mm. To mar a beauty such as yourself would be a step too far. But barbaric behavior will only be returned in like kind. Mind your step, Princess. And you needn't fear retaliation.

[oblique-wisdom.livejournal.com]

Barbaric behavior. Such a thing from you in reference to me. I know better than to do any such thing. I will not be spurned by your taunting, but I also will not feel fear from your empty threats.

[destinedtorule.livejournal.com]

Yes, barbaric. It is you who initiated the hostilities.

But, if you truly know better, then there is no need to have this...unpleasant conversation, now is there?

[oblique-wisdom.livejournal.com]

[No denial here.]

Pray tell, what sort of conversation would you anticipate for us to have, given the circumstance?

[destinedtorule.livejournal.com]

My initial question has yet to be answered. Would you be so kind?

[oblique-wisdom.livejournal.com]

My answer would, in no way, benefit you appropriately. You have my tolerance, Ganondorf; not my fancy.

[destinedtorule.livejournal.com]

I only wish to know where I am. Even my captors granted me knowledge of the location of my prison.

I had thought you would allow me the same courtesy. But if not, I will find my information elsewhere.

[oblique-wisdom.livejournal.com]

...

[That's a valid point.]

This is the ship known as the M.S. Elegante, en route to what is called the 'Golden Shore'.

[destinedtorule.livejournal.com]

You have my gratitude, Princess.

[And for once, he isn't mocking her.]

[oblique-wisdom.livejournal.com]

[Zelda's surprised. She doesn't quite know what to say.]

...... Of course.
