-So is this how it works?

[On the screen is a small girl, looking about 13, dressed in green and far away from her home. Her eyes glance down a few times, reading the piece of paper in her lap and following its every instruction. Clearly the word technology is foreign to her, let alone the ability to use it.]

Good thing the letter is so thorough, I would've never learned to use this by myself. Of course, I could always be talking to myself instead. I really hope not.

[She lets out a small nervous laugh, but she really does mean it. Just knowing anyone else was out there.]

It's so quiet here, I can't hear anything. Not even the faintest calling from the spirits. Everything here is so cold and hard, so different from the forest. It's actually a little scary...but I guess it's the way things have to be.

[Her eyes saddened a little. This was all real, she could feel it deep down. But then there was always a harder truth to accept.]

What that letter said, about home being destroyed, I don't believe it's a lie. After all, everything passes in time. But for there to have been so little left...I failed in my duties. I'm so sorry everyone.

[As a Sage, she should've been able to see this destruction come. She should've been able to do something...]

If anyone can hear me, my name is Saria. I'm looking for my friends. There are the Sages like myself: Rauru, Darunia, Ruto, Impa, Nabooru, and Princess Zelda; the other Kokiri children....Link....If any of those sound familiar, please let me know.

More often than some would like.

[Not that it should matter right? If they were going to keep coming back, he was surprised that they weren't more reckless... Maybe there was more to dying than he had bothered thinking about.]

[So much that someone can speak so casually about it?]

[What could this tower hold that death is only an inconvenience?]

Is this place really that dangerous?

I can be, it depends on where you are and who with.

Some floors are relatively safe, and you can make note of all these things.

It's the people you have to watch out for...

What kind of people? [Everyone she's talked to seems nice.]

People trying to survive of course. Not everyone is as they seem sometimes in this place.

When it comes down to it, most will choose their survival over yours and if they can use you to make their chances better? They will.

And there's always the ones looking to just cause harm simply BECAUSE people can't die. What better way than to kill without consequence? Or so they think anyways.

[To someone that was gentle, someone whose duty was to protect living beings, those words left an ill taste. All life had value, not even the possibility of rebirth cheapened that. There was no reason that excused that sort of mindset.]

That's horrible. No one can be that cruel.

You better start believing it here, it'll lessen the blow down the road when ya start seeing it with your own eyes.

[Veigar had experienced cruelty of the most extreme degree when he was younger, he wasn't naive to the evils that lie within everyone. It's how he turned out the way he is now...

Sometimes he'd get the bouts of niceness that his race was usually known for, rarely of course, this encounter being one of them.]

I've seen darkness with my own eyes; unspeakable evil done by the hands of a single person. I not blind to its existence...but something like that...

[Some good lays in most people. Everyone, she'd like to believe, but there were those like Ganondorf that existed.]

[Were there really more people like him?]

Are you one of those people?

[If she only knew that there was at least one Ganondorf running through these halls...]

I do as I please and don't let anyone put me down. I don't bow down to anything or anyone and I let them know that I Veigar am not to be trifled with!

That's not to say that I actively look to harm people.

[Although, his list of people he'd blow up is rather extensive.]

[Oh we'll deal with that holy terror soon enough.]

Then I'll be sure to never underestimate you Veigar. [He was...trying to help after all. Right?]

Good. I like you already... uh.... I don't think I caught your name? [~~You weird looking Lulu! You're not trying to trick me again are you?! And where's your hat?!~~]

[~~She's really a pony in disguise. Can't you tell by the FRIENDSHIP~~]

I'm Saria, the Sage of the Forest. It's an honor to meet you.

[~~Veigar should never meet a pony because he'll think they're Hecarim babies and he'll want to destroy them all!~~]

Saria....

I like it. And a Sage you say? Does that mean you know magic of sorts?

[Because magic always interests the Yordle!]

[She likes her name too!]

Of sorts yes. The Sages are more protectors than magicians. The most I can do on my own is listen to the forest.

Oh, so more like a nature spirit?

There's a few floors that nave what looks like nature, but I'm not sure if you'd be able to hear it there. After all, it's located in this Tower and everything here is topsy turvy most of the time.

That's a much better way to put it. [Describing the Sages is not very easy.]

Thank you for the warning then. I've never known a forest that was silent.

Well, if you don't succumb to the damned ways of this Tower, I would be pleased to meet you again down the road Saria.

[You're short and didn't give him a reason to blow you up or erase you from existence that means he likes you in Veigar speech.]
