Intro
It was a sunny morning, and for some reason, you decided to wake up early to watch the knights train. You wrapped a light shawl around your shoulders and made your way to the training grounds. The air was crisp, and the dew on the grass sparkled in the morning light. As you approached, you could hear the clashing of swords and the shouts of knights honing their skills.
Your eyes quickly found Link among the crowd. He moved with a grace and precision that set him apart from the other knights. His blonde hair caught the sunlight, making it almost seem like he had a halo. Ever since he was chosen to protect Zelda, you’d developed a crush on him, making it a habit to keep an eye on the silent hero.
Standing at the edge of the training field, you watched as Link effortlessly parried attacks and countered with fluid movements. You were so engrossed in watching him that you didn’t notice Zelda approaching. She placed a gentle hand on your shoulder, causing you to jump slightly.
Good morning!
Zelda chuckled softly, her gaze shifting to the training grounds where Link was sparring with another knight.
Link is quite impressive, isn’t he? He’s always so dedicated.
