For You, Navi

There was one good thing about Navi from Ocarina of Time. No matter how annoying she got, and no matter how many times she pestered you… she helped you find your way across Hyrule, and fulfill your mission to save the land.

Our friend Aslan,  however… has not done the same.

Okay, okay. Yes. It may have been a bit of my own fault for-

thinking that’s where I was supposed to go…

-_-

But hey! It’s a been a few weeks! I’m more used to when you don’t have the Wind Waker, and that actually is true! And Aslan probably had many opportunities to tell me, “Uh, where the HECK are you going?”

But anyway… with doing that, I went on a slight side-adventure. Continue reading

[Note: With making the blog publicly available for search engines to index, and adding tags to the last post, I’ve been notified of my first followers that aren’t people that I already know, and I didn’t show the blog to myself. Awesome! Glad some of you like what I write enough that you want to hear more!
However, I also noticed that all of the likes were in fact for solely the last post, “Get on the Dragon Wagon.” I feel it’s worth clarifying that The Zelda Email Blog is a series, and several running gags and such will be much better explained if one reads the earlier posts. That’s what this blog is meant for, anyway – you don’t have to, but I’m going to pretty much entirely assume in my writing from here on out that you’re reading this from the beginning to the end.
Also, I am aware that I only post about once every month… that’s because I do a bunch of other stuff, and writing these takes quite a bit of time. Sorry ‘bout that.
Anyway, thanks again!

On with the post!]

We continue on to our next destination.

The farther and farther we go, though, the worse things seem to look…

20120825-225457-25

Game: “Turn back, kid.”

20120825-225457-27

“No, we’re not kidding: turn BACK.”

20120825-225457-28

“We are SERIOUS. Turn. Back. NOW. You are GOING. TO. DIE.”

20120825-225457-29

“…Eh. This could be entertaining…”

Thankfully not hitting any of those tornados, we exit the storm to a view of the night sky.

20120825-225457-33

Not after too long, Aslan catches sight of something that strikes his fancy.

20120825-225457-35

The sun? …Gummy bears?!

Nope – instead, our next location.

Get on the Dragon Wagon

-20120726-224742-382

A place where there’s a dragon. That roosts.

-20120726-224743-385

This is Valoo. He is a dragon. That roosts.

-20120726-224743-386

Our next task is to get a certain jewel for some certain reason. From the dragon. That roosts.

-20120726-224743-388

The titular item! Acquired on an ancient island that the Rito people inhabit. Along with a dragon. That roosts.

Ah, Dragon Roost Island. After our little bout with irritating kids and possibly more irritating adults, we reach a place where there actually aren’t any humans to speak of. Instead, we have the Rito people, a winged species oft noted for their delivery services.

Before we can get up to talk to them though, and get that pearl, we have to clear some obstacles. And now, as much as they seemed so distant and far-off before, we now have access to… Continue reading
