Shad of the Resistance

I found a magic book.

[askshad-twipri]

Don’t mess with magical mirrors, good sir

Well, I have no plans to?

[askshad-twipri]

Oooh a fellow dog person. I adore dogs

They are the sweetest, most loyal beings on this earth.

[askshad-twipri]

Why. Why are there paw prints here? I don't have any animals, they just appear on the paper.

[askshad-twipri]

What animals do you like?

I'm much more of a dog person.

[askshad-twipri]

I know I should get used to cats, I foresee at least one or two in my future. But I simply do not get along with them!

[askshad-twipri]

I hope you like cats, good sir, for I'm leaving paw prints despite being a snail

Goodness gracious...

One, I despise cats, there are now paw prints all over these pages!

Two! How am I being contacted by a SNAIL?!

[askshad-twipri]

Hows the hero doing?

I have no clue. I haven't seen him in months.... I am aware he went on another adventure and visited his home a little while ago.

[askshad-twipri]

You....You good?

I am rested now.

[askshad-twipri]

Managing is good, but it sounds like you're having a tough time. Any way we could potentially help?

Unless you can somehow will him into my home - or get me some melatonin - ... no, there is no way

[askshad-twipri]

Did you enjoy your art classes

Why yes, I found them quite helpful. Sketching things on the sides of my notes help me visualize, if that makes sense. Here, I shall draw something for you now.

[askshad-twipri]

Hello~ how are things going?

I am managing...

[askshad-twipri]

Greetings! We've heard a great deal about you~ We also KNOW a great deal about you! Take that as you will~

Anyways, how are you, any new research?

I hope that is a positive thing...

I haven't been able to return to the skies for months, if you're asking about research regarding the oocca. I suppose I could go on my own, but the idea of being shot out of a canon alone terrifies me. I do not have twenty hearts and am not blessed by the gods, so I will not test my luck by going to nor returning from the City in the Sky on my lonesome.

Besides, I believe I've found everything I could for now.

[askshad-twipri]

I know you like the sky beings, any other things you're interested in?

Well, I actually majored in anthropology. I believe it is important to gain a better understanding of everyone in Hyrule, zoras to gorons to humans. The language and history classes I've taken have been the some of the most interesting to me. Politics... were some of my worst classes. Oh, but the most fun were the classes that allowed me to leave Castle Town and study the culture first hand!

For example, I traveled all the way to Zora's Domain to study their culture with my classmates. Many were happy to be interviewed, but there were some - the elders in particular - who seemed exasperated with us. They've had plenty of hylians from the Town come to them. I hear not as many go to visit the gorons and humans of Kakariko. Looking back, I regret not visiting Eldin instead... That project was back when I was eighteen and I was told the road to Lanayru was safer, and that the zoras were kinder than gorons. But having visited Kakariko a year later, my goodness! The gorons were some of the friendliest people I have ever met! They are just... a bit loud.

The classes were mostly Hyrulean-based. Any studying of other kingdoms' races and cultures was limited. However, there were plenty of books. I believe it was the curriculum. It's quite a shame, I would have loved to learn more about our neighbors at least.

I took art classes as well.

[askshad-twipri]

Greetings! I have come to inform you that all heroes MUST be held gently (🐔) (there are a few writers here, and so I will distinguish myself thusly)

Goodness gracious! Hello to all who can see this, then!

I am unsure if all heroes must be held gently as I only know one. But once I get him in my clutches again, I promise that he will be doted on as he deserves.

So, why a cucco?

[askshad-twipri]

Thoughts on the hero?

He is very lovely and a joy to be around!

[askshad-twipri]

I'm a person. I'm not a book

Now, this is intriguing! Hello hello!

I hope you're well. I must say I have no idea what to say to you. But if you have any queries for me, or just wish to speak, please feel free to use this book! I eagerly await your response.

Shad

[askshad-twipri]

Hiya. Any idea whats going on?

I think that depends on you! What, or who, are you?

Are you the book? Are you inside of it? Or perhaps, are you someone writing to me and this book is our medium?
