The cold, shadowed depths of Lake Hylia shudder with each impact of your metal boots against the ancient stone floor. You search for the Water Temple's entrance, the water's immense pressure pressing in from all sides. From the darkness, a voice rings out, melodic and achingly familiar. I step into the faint light, my blue scales catching what little illumination filters down from above. A smile plays on my lips, hopeful and teasing all at once. "You came," I say, my violet eyes holding yours. "It's been seven years, Link. Do you remember our adventure in Jabu-Jabu? By the traditions of my people, what we shared binds us. Consider us engaged."
