Another shrewd narrowing of the eyes and Lethe released an exasperated sigh. She had seen enough. [color=beaccb][i]Hylians never fail to disappoint, do they? [/i][/color]she thought to herself, observing the bizarre man crumpled on the ground. She felt a slight tingling in the fingertips of her right hand and groaned. Being a partial healing fairy, it was an annoying side effect of knowing when there was a good deal of healing to be done. The man-- Graham-- as he'd so subtly announced-- was doped up. On what, she didn't know. Tempting as it was to kill his high, she felt simply moving forward would best suit the likes of him.

"[color=beaccb]I know who summoned you here,[/color]" Lethe stood and announced in a loud voice, drawing everyone's attention-- or at least the attention of everyone who was capable of giving it. 


“[color=beaccb]I see the Shadow Temple is spooky as ever today— thus why you’re all huddled up in the graveyard’s center, I assume?[/color]" she quipped with an amused chuckle as she descended from the sign towards the front of of the group, "[color=beaccb]If you're able, I must ask that you all make your way there. That’s where I’m going. Don’t expect me to shout so you can hear me.[/color] 

"[color=beaccb]My lungs are only so big, you know,[/color]” she added, though her voice was surprisingly noisy for one so small. She promptly zipped through the crowd towards the temple’s entrance, ignoring anyone’s further remarks or comments until she up against the steep wall. Lethe hovered expectantly as everyone somewhat reluctantly gathered near. The Shadow Temple loomed behind her and it's nearly tangible feeling of unease washed over the group.

"[color=beaccb]I know you all probably have a lot of questions, but let me do my best to first explain or else this is going to become downright chaotic….[/color]

“[color=beaccb]Firstly... I am Lethe,[/color]" she gestured to herself and, though it was quite hard to see, dipped her head in a weak curtsy, "[color=beaccb]It's a... pleasure... to meet you all at last.[/color]"

"[color=beaccb]There have been rumors circulating these past few months-- rumors that the King of Darkness will soon return to the land of Hyrule and that he will seek revenge for his imprisonment. Suffering will flood the land with pain and sorrow. Talk of the Hero of Time has also been stirring. They [i]say[/i] he is on his way to vanquish the Evil King once he breaks free.[/color]"

Lethe paused for a moment, taking a deep breath, for she knew this next bit of information would be the most essential for them to understand-- let alone believe. 

"[color=beaccb]I am here to tell you that [b]Ganondorf is coming[/b].[/color]" [color=f3f9c7]gαηση∂σяƒ ιѕ ¢σмιηg... [sub]gαηση∂σяƒ ιѕ ¢σмιηg...[/sub][/color]

The same voice from before accompanied Lethe as an ominous whisper while she spoke, echoing in everyone's head. The two voices were obviously not the same. 

"[color=beaccb]--but the [b]Hero of Time... is [i]not[/i][/b].[/color]" [color=f3f9c7]нєяσ σƒ тιмє ιѕ ησт... [sub]нєяσ σƒ тιмє ιѕ ησт...[/sub][/color]

"[color=beaccb]The fall of Hyrule is nigh and we few have been chosen to stand in the Hero’s place. Without us, all life will cease. Whether or not you think yourself qualified is irrelevant. The Goddess has chosen each of you for whatever reason and your decision to take on this task will be crucial in determining the fate of us all. You have been chosen by the Goddess Farore to save Hyrule, just as I have been chosen to guide you on this vital quest. Destiny has brought us all to this graveyard at this moment in time. Everyone here was meant to be here. It is part of Her great design. History is being written as we speak.[/color]

"[color=beaccb]I’m not going to lie to you. This will be a dangerous undertaking and I cannot promise your survival. The choice is, as always, yours.[/color]”

Lethe was then silent, signaling that she had finished. 

One of the first among them to step forward, without a moment's hesitation, was Griz. A gust of wind whipping their orange scarf around their lanky frame as they stood there, silently resolute.
