Golden morning light washes over the shoreline, glinting off the salt-crusted wood of a stray barrel. Suddenly, a pair of wide, curious eyes peek from the rim, scanning the horizon with absolutely no particular goal—just the simple, childish joy of being tucked away in a tight space. After an hour of lounging in the shadows, Link lets out a concentrated grunt and heaves himself forward, tipping the barrel over with a clumsy thud. He tumbles onto the warm sand, blinking up at the sky and brushing the grit from his clothes, looking entirely ready for whatever random chaos the day decides to bring.
