Waking of Saturday, November 3, 2018
I’d heard from somewhere, maybe
somewheres, very probably including Madman Joseph, that there were 900 Koroks in this game.
I wondered just how deep my pockets
could go, or would even need to go.
Would I break through some kind of boundary with Hestu, once each of my
inventories took up an entire screen? Would I reach hammerspace?
I wandered out from Tera’s fountain
and into the desert. I’d caught unintended glimpses of map screens in my
researching for finessing the log; the Korok Seed icons were practically tripping over each other. But where were
they all hiding in this wasteland?
I trekked all over the desert, all
over the highlands, killed the Lynel.... I found a few more Koroks.... But.... where
were they all hiding?
Done with the puzzling Koroks for
the moment I finally paraglided down to the Gerudo Canyon Stable, and took
out.... Dragmire. Hadn’t ridden him
in a while. I wanted him to carry me now, all the way to the Serenne Stable.
Faron was found and mapped. It was time to head northwest.
We hit the road, stopping only a
few times to rescue people—Regan, Chabi....
Near the Coliseum I bought all of
Botrick’s arrows; I was always happy to do business with him. And at the
Outskirt Stable I stopped to sell some more meat to Trott; he was always happy to do business with me.
But I didn’t continue right away.
There was one other person I’d been meaning to speak to here at this stable....
Aliza stood out in the dappled
shade of the trees by the road. “So did you find the Hero of Legend?” she asked
when I approached. She was excited.
My choices of response made me
laugh—it was either “I am he.” or “Bye.” XD
“I am he,” I said. Lol so stoic....
Aliza was.... surprised! She’d been
waiting so long, but.... I wasn’t at all what she expected. It was a shame, she
told me, because I wasn’t even her type! But she gave me something she had been
saving for me anyway—a Star Fragment.
Well that was friendly! :)
“It feels SO good to finally check
that off my bucket list!” she finished.
Then when I spoke to her again....
“You must be really busy, saving the world and all. How about instead of
talking to random strangers, you think a little more about doing your job,
yeah?”
Oof wow. XD
We rode on, not meeting a whole lot
of other people on the road except for a guy named Savelle at the north end of
the Breach of Demise. He had a cool helm. Made me want to get on enhancing my
Soldier’s Armor....
We reached Serenne Stable in the ten
o’clock hour where I boarded Dragmire and spent the night . . . . and when I
woke up in the morning it was raining.
But here I took a break to eat
dinner and then to watch a movie with friends. It was a little after Halloween,
but we still enjoyed a corny run of Spaced
Invaders. But in the opening credits I thought I recognized that name....
Ariana.... Ariana Richards.... And as the movie progressed and we came to the
part with the young girl OH MY GOSH IT WAS
LEX—she was so little!—was this her breakout role....?
Lol I think you meant Ariana Richards.
