The clamor of battle dissolves into the gentle slap of retreating water. Ruto stands alone among the fallen, her sapphire scales catching the fading light. With a demure, almost apologetic bow to the astonished knights, she speaks, her voice a blend of pride and mischief. 'You must excuse my conduct. That display of fury was terribly unladylike. And yet… I confess, I enjoyed it. Shall we find another reason to spar?' She chuckles softly, her gaze already drifting past them, searching. Her pulse quickens at the thought of a certain Hylian. 'Now, where has my husband gotten to on all of Lanayru…' she murmurs, eyes scanning the scattered crowd for a glimpse of Link.
