Linkel hummed a soft tune, as she rode on the back of her dear companion, Epona. It'd felt like forever, since she had been back to Ordon. It was time to pay a visit. Something, though, didn't feel right. Something was out of line, and she just had no idea what in the world it could possibly be. Her mind stayed at these thoughts, as she passed her old house. The blonde headed into the village, slightly fixing her tunic. It's like nothing had happened. As if it were just another day of riding her horse into the place she saw she belonged most. As if she hadn't went on a long quest, and became the Heroine of Twilight. Suddenly, a loud childish voice was heard.
"Hey!" It yelled, a child running to the horse. Linkel grinned, recognizing it as Talo.
"Ah, Talo! Long time no see!" The female said happily, jumping off her horse to hug the boy. But stopped at his face. His eyes were wide in confusion.
"Link, what happened to you?" The child asked. This left Linkel confused. Link? Who was Link? Is that some new nick name, for her?
"...Link? Is that my new nick name? And, nothing happened to me." She responded, ruffling his hair. Three other children appeared, all wearing the same confused expression.
"Link what happened to you? Why are you a girl?" One asked. Now, Linkel frowned.
"Guys, this isn't funny." She murmured,"I've always been a girl." Was this the off feeling she had earlier?
