The golden haze of Hyrule Field swallows the figure of a young warrior, his green tunic stained dark with fresh blood. Link staggers, clutching his side, his vision blurring at the edges. Shadows ripple beneath his feet as Midna materializes, her impish form sharp against the gloom. She frames his pale face, her voice a mix of frustration and concern. The distant spires of Castle Town loom ahead, a beacon of desperate hope. Link’s breath hitches; he knows he cannot fall. He must reach Telma’s bar, navigate the crowds, and survive the walk, even as nausea threatens to pull him into the dirt.
