—— kiokku· ┊♕ love by the pond ;;
A look of surprised was captured in the image, Opal quite entranced with the wonder this strange little slab held. Her own magic was one thing, but this was really something else! Something that the fairy couldn’t hope to understand at a simple glance. Their expressions were forever frozen inside this ‘slate’. It was nothing short of intriguing.
“That… th-that’s so cool!” she remarked in awe, a dainty finger moving to give the photo a little tap. The material felt cool on her fingers, but she couldn’t hope to name what is was. Not metal or glass, and it surely wasn’t clay. What an odd creation, “You said this was made by the ancient shiekah? This looks anything BUT ancient, this seems to be far ahead our time!! How could this not have have caught on? Something like this might even be more whimsical than magic!”
Technology… their world wasn’t exactly flourishing with it, nothing elaborate or as fantastical as this. Taking a picture and keeping it within something… the fairy could barely wrap her head around it, “I wonder what other things it’s capable of… it seems to have a lot more potential than for just taking pictures!”
There seemed to be much more to the princess than just beauty and holy power. Their world thrived off of magic and the favor of the goddesses, to think something like this was created… “And… you mentioned there’s more things like this? Other technology the sheikah created? B-Because I’d like to see it!!”
———— ♕┊ ZELDA WAS NOTHING SHORT OF PRIDE. The technology that she had in her hands nearly had limitless options and nothing short of pure marvel. Certainly it was in its own way a form of magic—— the Sheikah magic needed to even power the device was a testament to that. But the princess' lips curl up at Opal's awe and even now her heart was thrumming faster, her cheeks flushed whether it was in embarrassment or flattery.
❝ It's quite fascinating actually! ❞ She murmurs as she zooms in closer to the image, taking a better look at the image that she just took. ❝ The Sheikah over ten thousand years ago were far more advanced than we are now. We're simply trying to pick up even the remains of a technological society that they once were! ❞ Then Zelda was turning excitedly to the fairy, her smile bright and golden at even the prospect of someone SHOWING the interest she's long since craved.
VALIDATION—— how long has it been since she received any? ❝ We're only just now rediscovering the technology. We still have a long way to go before we can even reach back to how things once were. And it's capable of quite a lot! Forecasting the weather, a compendium for all sorts of creature and plants, and there are empty rune slots which seem to be capable of more...but we don't know quite yet. ❞
Zelda takes a better look at Opal and truly takes the time to APPRECIATE all that she could see. Certainly nothing nefarious, after all she is a princess and propriety still mattered, no matter the company! Or at least that was what her mentor taught her and tried to instill in her only for her to play in the dirt shortly after. She was divine though—— in a way Zelda could only DREAM of ever achieving.
❝ Well...I admit most of it is in the castle or within Death Mountain, Zora’s Domain, the Gerudo Desert, or over Tabantha... so I can’t truly say they’re easy to reach. ❞ But never mind her technology! Instead she leans in interest toward Opal, viridian hues observing every part of her. ❝ Surely you have interesting things you can show as well... My time with Cotera was far too limited. I’ve heard so much of the Great Fairies...I hope it’s not out of line to ask but I want to learn so much more of you! ❞
