Waking of Saturday, October 27, 2018 ~ 2
I didn’t have the topo, but I could
see the icon indicating Lurelin Village’s location. It was directly on the
other side of a sizeable mountain from where I was.
Instead of following the winding
beach all the way back, I decided to take a little climb, straight up and over....
From the beach and sea level, the
mountain looked rather unremarkable, but as I climbed I discovered a good
number of little dells and hidden hollows, and a heckton of Blue Nightshade
flowers! Cool.
And at the tippy top was a Korok.
Of course.
As long as I was at the crest I
decided to spend a moment taking in the view. And looking down the tumbles of
another side of the mountain, I could see.... Why that’s a heart-shaped pond! One single pond—not broken down the
center like that one above Hateno Village. This heart was whole.
And there were people down there....
A Hylian man and a Gerudo stood on
opposing shores of the little pond. Furtively staring at one another. I spoke
to them both.
Wabbin was the man’s name. And he
was in some seriously deep smit. That Gerudo across the way was gorgeous. But he couldn’t work up the
nerve to just go over there and talk
to her....
The Gerudo, Perda, on the other
hand, was feeling a bit unsure. While she was indeed out seeking her true love,
and this did seem to be a place of providence for the matter, she didn’t quite
know what to make of the creeper who kept staring at her from across the
way....
I played a lovely game of
go-between. XD
Wabbin wanted to offer her a token
of his feelings—a flower. Only he
didn’t have any flowers. And he begged me to find him some Blue Nightshades.
Well! As it turned out I’d just run
into a huge stash of those! Not that my pockets weren’t already full of them. I
handed one over.
But Wabbin was too petrified to
offer the gift himself. So he asked me if I would do it.
Heh,
sure thing, buddy. X-)
I took the flower to Perda, and let
her know how that guy over there was totally digging on her, and well.... that
put her in deep smit, too.
A few more messaging runs back and
forth, and the most adorable cutscene ensued, with Wabbin and Perda finally on
the same side of the pond together, Perda still
holding the flower! ^_^ Awww, that was cute. Don’t see items as props too
often.
And as the sun rose on the high
meadow with its pond in the seaside mountain.... I was the last one to fall
into deep deep smit. Because I saw just how many Hearty Radishes there were
growing around here! Sweet! 8D
Those things is good eatin’!
