Well, let's at least get ourselves comfortable before I begin. How does that sound?
[ she laughs a little and leads ylfa over to a seating area near the stable which i am now deciding exists to hold the pegasi. ]
I was sent to a time long, long before the age in which I lived because I had an important job to do. [ she takes the master sword off of the makeshift sheath keeping it strapped to her shoulder, because she's still too cheap to have bought a belt, and holds it out for ylfa to look at as she speaks. ] Do you remember when I told you about the Master Sword, about how I needed to make sure she returned to her proper owner? She was damaged in my era and needed a very long time to heal. Much, much longer than we had in the present.
It took me a while to understand why... but I eventually figured it out.
[ her grip on the sword's hilt tightens a little. ]
The Master Sword is very special—its true power can only be unlocked by its chosen hero, and it is the only thing able to defeat the Demon King. Like you saw Queen Sonia say, my bloodline is gifted with a sacred power... the power to seal away evil and heal its withering touch. Even if I wasn't the last living member of the royal family...
I could think of nothing I wanted more than to heal the sword and return it to Link. It is the least I could do, for the man who has done so, so much for me.
