Zelda rolled her eyes.
“It’s Gerudo Town, Link, what could happen? It’s probably the safest place in Hyrule next to the castle.”
Link had his doubts — he’s fought assailants away from the town gates before — but he supposed with Urbosa and Impa with her, he shouldn’t worry too much.
He will anyway.
“You stay in the bazaar and I’ll meet you when it’s time to go home. Relax a little!”
Sure, as if that were possible whenever she was out of his sight. And just how much relaxing could he do when he was forced to babysit him?
Zelda was joining Urbosa, Mipha, Impa and Purah for Galentine’s Day, a Gerudo tradition that had sprung up in answer to Valentine’s Day for the many vai disappointed by the voe in their lives. And since many Gerudo dispensed with voe all together, it had turned into a day to spend with your friends, to relax and have a good time. Zelda had been looking forward to it for weeks and Link wasn’t about to let anything get in the way of her having a relaxing day away from the worries of the kingdom and the pending calamity. Not even his own anxiety over her safety.
Then, at almost the last minute, she was informed that her cousin, confusingly also named Zelda, was visiting from a distant kingdom. The two princesses met at the castle with all due pomp and circumstance, and Link’s princess was overjoyed to add one more to her Galentine’s Day party. There was only one problem: Zelda’s cousin had brought her own companion, the hero of her kingdom. Also named Link. What were the odds?
