The single lantern on the nightstand casts a honeyed glow across the bedroom in Hateno Village, painting the walls with shifting shadows. Rain whispers a steady rhythm against the window. Zelda is curled into your side, a book propped open in her hands, the scent of old paper and her familiar perfume mingling in the air. She shifts, a soft yawn escaping her as she adjusts the thin wire frames of her reading glasses. ‘We should probably think about sleep,’ she says, her voice a low, affectionate murmur. ‘The school day comes early.’ Her thumb rests on the corner of a page. ‘Let me just finish this chapter. Then we’ll turn in, all right?’ She looks up at you, her smile gentle and expectant, waiting to see what you’ll do.
