Live Your Own Story in Hyrule

“Always!” She replies without hesitation, climbing carefully onto his back as she usually does— it's becoming natural by now. “Ready.”

Without waiting any longer, Revali takes off into the air and proceeds to glide down towards the ship.

“I am really curious to know what they eat here. Maybe I can learn a few recipes and make them at the Wolfos,” she says to Blue while flying over the dark ocean.

Mipha nodded, satisfied with the answer she'd been given. It was nice to have some help with this matter she'd assigned herself to. She turned away from the edge and headed back to the vehicle, wondering if it had any function left to it. Carefully crawling back in, she closed the hatch behind her then made the effort to awkwardly settle herself back into the flightseat.

Now to see if this thing might just turn on. Wouldn't do any good trying to use it as an example if it doesn't function anymore.

As Mipha settles into the vehicle, it illuminates dimly. The bar that appeared earlier is not completely gone but it does have a bit of light. The vessel reacts with her movements, initially rotating on its own as she moves about the cabin.

Link lands into the water and quickly jumps into the ship. He greets the crew and watches Revali and Irina glide above

Mipha smiles softly to herself. This might just work to get back to the water. It may not be in the best condition, but it didn't need to be! It just needed to function and as it rights itself at her movement, she takes care to rotate the vessel around and propel it off the cliff back towards the waters below.

The vehicle awkward jitters and sputs its way across the platform and down the side of the island. It freefalls towards the sea but the. steadies itself before landing in the water. When it does, it reemerges to the surface and the princess may notice the blue bar inside growing now that it floats atop the water. The interior lights also become bright again.

Link dives back into the water to swim to the vehicle. He hops atop it and shouts from the outside. “Princess!? Are you okay?”

_Gatu gets a running start and leaps off the edge of the floating island and back down to the water below._ *"GERANIMO!"*

_He splashes safely into the water next to Link, having dived down in perfect form, kicking up as he resurfaces next to the Hero of Time._

As Revali and Irina land on the ship, the armored barmaid watches the hard landing. She leans over the edge, watching concerned to see if the princess inside had the same luck as Link earlier.

still works!" Mipha was so excited to see the vessel still functioned after that maneuver she took with it. "So...it always needs water to function. That is the key. Hmm." There's plenty of that to go around here, though she does wonder what she could learn of this vehicle to take back home with her.

Caught up in the workins of this vessel, she almost didn't hear the calls that came from outside. She didn't realize she had any reason to feel unwell. Did something go wrong? She steps away from the controls and opens the hatch cautiously. "I'm alright. Is there something wrong?" She asked, eyes peeking out from the small gap between the hatch and the opening.

_Gatu swims over to the ship Irina and Revali are on, climbing up on-board soaking wet once more. He uses a smig of fire magic to dry himself off a bit faster this time._

Mipha could understand Kala's sentiments, even if she may have been slightly disheartened at hearing her words. Still, she would hold out hope regarding the opportunity that might very well present itself.

"Evil has a way of overwhelming and corrupting what are considered sacred places. Each of the temples in the land served significance to its people in some form and Ganondorf invaded each one. The Master Sword, despite its power, I can imagine can be affected in similar fashion. However, unlike the temples, it bears a unique sentience that may have contributed to its disappearance. It may have ended up here due to fear or protection or something else," she offered her thoughts on the matter.

"That is what I think, at any rate."

Maintaining her hold on her trident, she turns away from the group to look towards the islands once again. It doesn't appear they're very active, which begs the question of where the others are. Were they successful? Why haven't they returned?

She'd placed a hand to her chest in a self-soothing manner to calm her heart, nearly sinking into the thought that they might very well be in trouble. Naturally, she lowered her eyes from the island feeling troubled. Yet, what was sadness was quickly turned into befuddlement. "What is happening in the water?"

She returned to the group. "Something has happened in the sea. It's filled with streams of light!"

_Gatu runs over and looks downwards to see what Mipha sees._
"Something important must have fallen into the water after what the others did over on the Floating Island. It's hard to tell, but... I think they went down to retrieve it. I think I see a craft of some sort down there, near the farthest stream of light over there." _Gatu said, pointing it out to Mipha if she hasn't spotted it._

"They went down? Are you certain?" Mipha inquired, her voice elevating as she'd stepped closer over the edge to take a look at where Gatu was looking. She couldn't quite make it out in the same way, but it didn't matter. They could very well be in danger. "But the waters... I thought--" She shook her head. "Nevermind, that. I'm going to go after them." She hastened towards the cliff that Link jumped from before. Looking over the ledge, she studied where the guiding light was leading towards. Without further hesitation she dove off the ledge and slipped through through the surface of the sea as smoothly as a knife through butter.

"Be careful Mipha!" _Gatu said after her, wishing her all the luck as she leap and dove down to see what's going on._

Kala crosses her arms and mutters something under her breath... something about "she is going to get herself killed" and "spoiled princess".

She walks to the edge then turns and gives Gatu a sharp look. "Well, are you coming or not?"

Revali came gliding in from above, circling over the area before coming to a landing. He didn't want to run into any issues on his way down. "Hey!" He calls out in greeting. "Me and Red have finally returned. We're coming to pick you guys up and fly you back to a boat out there. Seems a lot has happened and it'll be too hard to explain. Best way I can put it - A whale of light is tugging the boat." He shrugs.

"Don't ask me more, I just got there and got yelled at by Mipha."

Red comes landing soon after Blue and stretches a bit. "We've been doing a lot of flying..." He states. "But yeah, what the Blue guy says is correct. All the others are okay, though. That we know of, at least." He confirmed.

"If you all are ready, just say the word and we can carry you back. No need to get into the water."

Kala was about to jump into the water, maybe grabbing Gatu with or without his permission, but she stops when she sees the two figures on the horizon. She points and then runs to them as they land. "Boat?" She asks confused.

She stares out at murky water and frowns, then turns to the birds. Then the other thing he said clicks in her mind, "Whale... of light? What?" She looks more confused now. "Are they in danger? The people on the boat?"

Revali sighs, lifting his wing to his head to hold it briefly. "Yes, a boat. Whale of light. You heard it right. No one is in danger, thankfully. I'm not making any guarantees, I don't know anything about these waters, so they might not stay that way. But, for now, folks are fine. In fact, a lot of the crew looked like you," he pointed to Kala.

"We should probably get going before we lose sight of the boat. I don't think that whale is intent on stopping anytime soon."

Red grumbled, "I'll pick up from where he left off. There's a boat that's currently manned with a crew. Some of them look like you. Whatever happened on that island there is also responsible for the light in the water. We think they're headed towards its source." He eyes Blue. "It really wasn't that much to describe..."

He then returns his attention to Kala. "But if we stay here, they're probably going to get further away and I don't really want to be stuck here, so can we start flying off?" He thumb points in the general direction of were the boat is.

Kala crosses her arms. This wasn't exactly helpful dialogue, and she doesn't seem to enjoy small talk.

She immediately quips as soon as Red finishes, “Look, take these two…” she points at Gatu and Impa. “I can manage. A few sea serpents don't frighten me. Just try not to get eaten out there. I don't know what your kind tastes like but I am sure our local species would find you all delicious.”

She seems suddenly agitated and impatient to get to that boat. With that brief monologue, she jumps into the water with her spear. She disappears into the sea mist, practically flying across the surface of the water.

"I don't want to find that out. This is exactly why I want to fly away from here and eventually, out of here entirely." Red slouched a bit, thinking about being some sort of sea serpent snack. He took off and grabbed up Gatu, leaving Blue to pick up Impa. "N-not without helping out. I mean, we did sort of make an agreement and I'd hate to be the one to break that..."

"I'm in peak form and I take very good care of myself, so I would assume my taste would be sublime. But, I'm not about to be anyone's snack. I work far too hard just to become some mince meat for a sea serpent out here. Should it come to pass that I am unfortunately eaten, I will make sure the sea serpent that did it will have the worst stomach pains of its life every step of the way." Revali flies over to grab up Impa. "Alright, just hold on and we'll get back to the boat in no time."

"Let's head out. The faster we can go snag that orb of light that fell off the island, the faster we can hopefully stabilize BOTH realms." _Gatu replies, willing to head down and rejoin the others. The sooner they get the Master Sword out of the Twilight Realm, the faster it can stabilize._
