Quest 03 (Open)

[newmemorywhodis]

i. Vault Library: Over 100 years old and still not too old for picture books

Usually, Link is quite comfortable in libraries. Even if he’s not particularly academic himself, he’s spent more than enough time in them with Zelda. And he does always like a good novel. (Especially Romance. And Mystery. And most especially any book that was both at the same time.)

And yet, in the library he’s…less comfortable. Namely because he can’t actually read any of the books here. But his inability to read Imperial is exactly the problem he’s here to fix.

So now Link is curled up in a big comfy chair, frowning faintly at the picture book held in his hands. On the cover is a cute cartoon flying ship, and the title, A is for Airship.


ii. Vault Academy: Behold the unholy desk-shield

Link had ended up in the Academy’s basic ether training classes the same way he usually found himself in this sort of thing: by wandering around the place, opening doors to see what was behind them, and then shamelessly sticking around when he found himself in the middle of a lecture.

He hadn’t really expected anything to come from the basic Ether training class he found himself gatecrashing. Magic had never really been Link’s forte, after all. Any magical ability he’d possessed had usually come from someone else.

And yet…at the end of the lesson, something clicked. Something familiar, that he’d thought had been gone forever. Almost without thinking, he pulls his shield from his back. Puts it on his right hand, while reaching out with his right towards one of the classroom desks.

His right arm flickers, and it’s like there’s a ghostly shadow of another arm laid over his own. One with clawed nails and odd geometric bands encircling it, and that glows a bright green.

Then Link pulls...and suddenly, the table has shrunk - and attached to Link’s shield.

“Ha!” He cries.


iii. Flotsam deck: Advanced fish murder

Now that Link's mysteriously managed to regain the Fuse ability - and also his stash of shock fruit - there's only one thing to do.

Immediately start using it to really rake in the fish.

He starts on the deck of one of the fishing boats. Looks down into the water. And then when he spots a passing school of fish...draws his bow, pulls a shock fruit out of his back, and then attaches the fruit to the end of his arrow in a flash of green light.

When he lets the arrow loose, the water crackles with electrical energy! ...And a whole bunch of very dead fish start floating to the surface.

Time to jump in and start collecting!


iv. Flotsam kitchen: Pizza party [locked to Donnie]

Link wasn’t picky about foods: he liked all of them, practically in equal measure. But sometimes, he was in the mood for something specific.

Right now, that something was pizza.

Having given most of his Tabantha wheat to Shu, and not having much Hateno cheese in his pack, Link had substituted both for local ingredients. But the star of the show - the Hylian tomatoes - were straight from home.

And now is the moment of truth, when Link opened the oven and revealed his creation. Fresh and steaming hot, he pulls out a delicious Hylian tomato pizza.
