[ Somnus's words are cryptic and before Zelda can ask for clarification, he holds up a hand to stop her. She knows the meaning in that motion and purses her lips into a thin line. 'No more questions.' She has pried as far as Somnus is willing to allow today.
Zelda doesn't bother to hide the air of disappointment about her as she nods obediently. There are not many things that can stop the inquisitive princess when she catches hold of a thread of information that piques her curiosity, but an authoritative figure is one of them. ]
Link has given me reason to believe that Hyrule will be spared such a fate. His memories stretch beyond mine somehow—things I will say to him in the future, decades from now. It seems it was I who woke him from his slumber, although I am certain I have done no such thing.
[ Now this is interesting: someone of her own world unraveling the secrets of her own future. It should be reassuring, but perhaps it's not that simple. The Zelda of the future is not the same as the one in the past, she has not lived whatever that future-her has. She must grow of her own accord, in a time and realm away from her own. ]
Should you doubt you have the capability, be assured that this future proves otherwise. However, [ Somnus gestures towards her.
She is so young. ] Grant yourself the patience to achieve it.
[ Zelda has to hold back a groan (although it shows in her face). 'Be patient.' She hates being told to be patient. Maybe it's because if a childhood spent patiently trying to awaken her sealing powers, or decades patiently holding Calamity Ganon in the seal. Zelda is good at being patient, but she doesn't enjoy it one bit. ]
I shall do my best. [ Said with the impatient exhale of a teenager who has heard those words more times than she can count.
Perhaps that's what reminds Zelda that she has been at the smithy for awhile. ] I should probably take my leave before I monopolize your entire afternoon.
