Setting: Room 2-13 and just about everywhere else
Format: Prose or bracket spam, I'll do both
Summary: Fi arrives, wakes up and explores
Warnings: None?

Sleep paralysis was nothing strange for Fi, who had entered into what she thought would be a permanent sleep within the Master Sword. Obviously, within the sword, Fi had no ways of moving or even know what went on outside the sword, how many years had passed or if anyone had been chosen to wield the blade again. So when she felt her body relax, felt a pillow beneath her head and felt a soft bed it was needless to say that the spirit was a bit confused.

Fi floated off the bed and looked around the room, completely devoid of life but for herself. The note caught her attention first and rather than untangle her arms, she used magic to raise the note to read it.

'Your world has been destroyed. I saved you. Let's all be happy here.

"Improbable. The death of Demise would not have let any openings for the land to be destroyed." But there was a small, wriggling doubt in her mind of course. She obviously couldn't know for sure since her consciousness had faded into the Master Sword. She couldn't know.

The trunk at the foot of her bed went largely ignored until she started to float out the door. There was something there. Something she needed. Opening it revealed the blade that her Master had tempered in Din's, Farore's and Nayru's fires, the blade that had finally killed Demise. Carrying it would be pointless but Fi had at least a small command of magic, forcing it to vanish. Gone, for now, but easily summoned. And then out the door she went.

She explored everywhere possible, looking for familiar faces. After all, why save her and not actual living people? Someone from the surface or Skyloft had to be here. Even if it was just one person, like the Knight Academy's headmaster. As large as this tower was, she was sure that once she was on the same floor as someone she knew, she'd be able to sense them.

No, you are correct but that means he does not possess the entire Triforce. Already fate has intervened to keep the entirety of it from evil hands.

... I suppose you are correct, then. But the idea of Link possessing any of the Triforce at all...

[It's terrifying. He's such an evil man.]

Link? Is there some reason that he should not hold the Triforce?

He is a terrible, terrible man - he should not be allowed to go near Hyrule, let alone the Triforce.

[The mere idea of it.. Ugh. Why would you want him to hold the Triforce, Fi!?]

His heart is filled with evil... our time was short, but even I could sense it.

You must be mistaken. Master Link is Hylia's Chosen Hero. No matter how many years may have passed since I began to sleep, I do not believe that those of his bloodline would have turned towards a darkened path. The odds of that happening are only 24%.

I'm not mistaken, unfortunately. I'm not sure which Link you speak of, but the one I know is the leader of the Gerudos, and the Prince of Thieves.

... Well; Prince of Evil, perhaps, as he has likened that name for himself...

Gerudos are not registered in my database.

[This is... disturbing. That the Chosen Heroes bloodline would turn towards the same path Demise had followed.]

I must request that you inform me of as much as you possibly can regarding him.

I... I can try.

[She doesn't know much, aside from what she has experienced.]

He... is the leader of the Gerudos; a group of thieves. His intentions are nothing but evil, as well... He treats women as pitiable creatures, and has killed many to get to where he is.
And he plans to kill many more as well.

His goal is... his goal is to gain the Triforce, and use it to rule Hyrule. For what purpose, I'm not sure... but it isn't with good in mind.

[Fi listens very carefully, no expressions on her face so nothing betraying her confusion at this.]

This is disturbing. That the Heroes bloodline would have been tainted is something Her Grace never anticipated.

... So... you are saying that the ancestors of the Link I knew, are good people?

[That's not too hard to believe, and yet...]

It doesn't matter, I suppose; it's my duty as the Hero of Time to get the Triforce back from him, and to save Hyrule.

[And if that means dispatching him, then... so be it, right?]

That is correct. My Master is named Link and he is the Chosen Hero.

[Fi understands duty. Quite well in fact, and she nods to the hero.]

I understand.

... Do you think he's here, in this tower?
I would hate to surprise him with the end of my blade, after all.

[It's quite likely that she'd try to make Link into Lump if she didn't know, after all.]

I believe he is, yes. My dousing ability has picked up his aura on several occasions. However, close contact with him has interfered and I have been unable to pinpoint his exact location.

[Fi would appreciate the lack of dismembering her Master.]

Well... I hope you find him, then.
A blade without its wielder is a lot like a knight without their sword, after all.

[The bond between those two must be deep. That's all she can think about it...]

Thank you. I hope that I do as well.

Your analogy is quite accurate.

[It is. :< She misses Link.]

Of course; I'm sure I would feel the same, had I been in your position.

[Poor Fi. ;; She feels so bad for her...]

... If you would like, I'll tell the Link you seek that you are looking for him, should I meet him.
