The Piano's Rival


Waking of Saturday, June 2, 2018


David was with me when I started up in Kakariko!
He’s always so far ahead but now I would show him something he’d never seen or done before!
Maybe a few things! :D
Those Guardians would have come back after the Blood Moon—I went out back and approached the one in the Pit. And when I paraglided down to the little hilly rockpile, below the line of safe escape, facing the monstrosity even as it glowed hot angry pink and lasered in to take careful aim at my heart and the Piano pounded indignation at this brazen affront.... David could not believe what I was doing.
BUT I HELD MY GROUND!
Careful now.... CAREFUL NOW....
“What are you doing?” David gasped.
The targeting laser steadied, the Guardian beeped.... beeped....
....
. . . . . . .
BEEPED . . . . . . .
. . . . . . .
It always took longer than you thought or wanted . . . .
But it was not until the FLASH—and absolutely no later than its first shining—that I swung my shield as the blue-white bolt of death-made-light came streaking in an instant up the field!
KHING!
And the satisfying slow-down so that I could see the reflected bolt almost frozen in the air, bounced back, its trajectory sure....
Whaaaat?” said David.
And the normal flow of time resumed and the Guardian took the hit in the face!
“WHAAAT?” said David.
And then, riding over the deadly triplitive Piano came a swell of Strings, shining against the terror, just for a moment. At each successful hit they came back, breathing cool strength into the sound. The Guardians were not the only terrors to be reckoned with on this earth!
And this time, my Perfect Parry really was perfect. And in three hits.... the Guardian was down.
MAN THAT FELT SO GOOD! As I sailed down to collect all the bits left behind! So many gears! ^_^ So cool.
And what was more.... when I checked my inventory.... MY SHIELD WAS STILL SPARKLY!! 8D I’d come in with a new shield—and the Perfect Parry had upheld its quality, prolonged its life!
AWESOME! XD
I climbed up over the PitGate to see if I could sneak up on the other.... and we saw it creeping around below, quite close to the vertical rockface. I paraglided down.... and landed on its head.
“David! Look!”
The Guardian continued to crawl around, flicking its juddering, hundred-year-old gaze over the grass. Evidently it didn’t know I was there.
But every time it started and turned and started again, I had to readjust my footing on top of its can-head, even as Link bent slightly in that spring-ready stance he takes whenever an enemy is near....
Got kinda tricky when the Guardian wouldn’t get away from the wall, and started tipping....
Oh my gosh.... XD
I hopped down at some point and tried to have it out proper with this one too, but—
Well, my practice wasn’t perfect yet.
In the rolling confusion of close fire I warped away to the Wetland Stable....

That one was close enough to the Honeydell....

  1. Hello! In regards to your previous comment, that does sound creepy! I have the DS version of that game but I didn't get very far, I was frustrated with the whole 3 days thing.
    In regards to the current entry, that sounds like it was epic to show that off! And that line at the end sounds very ambiguous and leading for the next excellent post.
    I wish you all the best!

    1. For some reason I've never been able to finish a handheld Zelda.... but when they're on a console I just can't give up on 'em! Odd maybe....

      Haha, oh yes, there was a thing I was just trying to build up to for DAYS it felt like.... |D

      As always, Thanks for commenting! ^__^
