Happy looked at the odd princess and smiled big. He had caught her joke and chuckled in response. "Of course! It would be educational as well as an honor." He nodded his head respectfully as his heavy pack preventing him from offering a full bow. "I will see you and your friend this evening. I hope I was of help to you. Please don't hesitate if you need any more services." 

With another large grin and head-bow, he turned to head home. He had a lot of thinking to do. He still had the basket from the market with him and that needed attention as soon as possible. Meanwhile, he ventured out into the rain, thankful that it had let up enough that the blanket was able to protect his merchandise.

When he arrived home, he promptly pulled the basket out of his pack and a stack of scrap paper. He quickly sketched the faces of the odd pair on the paper as best he could with having only been with them a short time. Beside each face, he drew humorous cartoon forms. Next to those, scary versions. He reached into the basket and pulled out a few little jars of paint and decided which ones he liked best. He went into the basket again and pulled out a few chunks of wood and used a knife to mark out the contour of the drawn faces he liked best.

He did all of this effortlessly. He wasn't even thinking about it. His mind was focused on the coming speech. His curiosity was endless. What were these people? Where were they from? How can one get there. He wanted to go there. He wanted to learn. He supposed that he had inherited the potentially deadly curiosity that had killed his ancestors. It just manifested itself in a different form.

The first piece of wood was ready for proper carving. It held the contours of a cartoonified Zant. It was almost unrecognizable. It took the strangest parts of his face and amplified them so that they were scary. This was a mask that was not intended for children.
