Hyrulean Civil War RP [Game Thread]

((Clarifying just for everyone's information that the Triforce is far from common knowledge at this point in time. None of our characters know of the Triforce yet. Something else that won't hurt to clarify just in case is that the Gerudo aren't considered more evil or whatever than any of the other factions in the war. At this point all five factions look at the others the same way.))

The advantage of now being part of the army again was that Linora was no longer wanted for deserting. Because of this she could roam Castle Town freely without any risk. She had already prepared herself with all she needed for the journey so now she had two hours of time to kill.

A few days before Linora was forced back into the army she had gotten her hands on a pretty vague map while researching the reasons behind the war. The map seemed to point to some place in the outskirts of Castle Town, but Linora had yet to find it even though she had tried. With some time on her hands now she set off to try finding this place before they had to leave in the boats.

Linora made it to the edge of town and started following the map from there. She walked along the inside of the city wall and then stopped when she thought she was where the mark was on the map. She looked around but didn't spot anything out of the ordinary. There were no people around either. Nothing. Linora sits down on the ground in defeat. "So much for that I suppose," she says in a sigh. Then she suddenly sees it; some very small markings in the wall located at the base of it right by her feet. There was also a brick in the wall right above the markings that stuck out a few inches out of the wall, so the markings could not have been seen by anyone standing up. Linora crawls closer and examines the very tiny markings. There are three triangles positioned in a way to form one bigger triangle. It looked pretty. Underneath the triangles there was a short line of text, however part of it had been blurred out over the years. Linora was able to read the last bit of it. "--- ----orce will grant its holder any wish."

Linora took out her pictobox and snapped a picture of it. "Finally something interesting," she thinks to herself. "Someone or something that can grant wishes..." She then notices how much time that had passed so she heads straight out to the river to meet with Will and the others.

Will shows up at the docks about ten minutes before he told everyone to show up, and, as expected, fifteen minutes later everyone had arrived, "All right everyone, "Load up!"

Rasul continues to build his house

Linora boards the front line ship along with the others. Her mind was elsewhere though and it was quite obvious that she wasn't focused on the mission. She couldn't stop thinking about her most recent discovery. The thought had occurred to her that it might just have been something fake. A joke by someone. But the map that lead her there was legit, and the markings in the stone wall looked truly old. Something or someone that can grant any wish sounds like something very desirable. Desirable to anyone. Linora was deep in thought. It seemed unlikely that it was a person granting these wishes. If it was, this person would have to be incredibly old. It makes the most sense for it to be an object. But what could it be? And where could she find more answers?

Morten, upon hearing his own verdict, promptly allowed the guards to haul him into the cell block. He spends much time down there, not having been questioned yet. His family, the war; many thoughts come across his mind. He had no regrets about his choice to save the Goron decoy. He believed the younger Goron to be a more valuable asset to the war effort, more than a self-doubting Goron like himself would anyways. It's not like he didn't want to support his comrades, as he loved the thrill of battle and the honor and bravado that came with it. Still, the ever-present thought of his fledgling family lingered in his mind. He had a wife and son to support, and that was all he wanted to do. Meanwhile, Morten hears murmurs from the other prisoners.

Lann munches on a bit of jerky he had picked up in the last town he'd been to, perfectly content.

 

[Storm]

Rasul continues to work on his house, wondering if his neighbor would stop by or if he was busy.

"Soldier?" a voice is heard in the castle dungeons. "Mortenius is that you?" the Goron General asks from his cell right next to Morten's. "By Gorko's beard, it is you! How did you end up here too?"

 

[Pen]

Cornea walks out of his house and is positively surprised to see Rasul building a new house on the neighbouring yard. "How goes it?" he asks.

 

[Storm]

"Its going, would be going faster if the town blacksmith wasnt mad at me for asking to borrow his forge. But that will change later on when i implement my own, isnt that right, good boy?"

Rhuk walks down to Hyrule Field, chasing a butterfly. before long he is outside the Gerudo Desert

 

[DekuNut]

Will stands behind the helmsman, "Take us up the Zora's River, towards the Gerudo Chasm."

And so the Hylian navy sets off for Gerudo Valley. By 7 PM the ships cast anchor in the river before the great waterfall leading down to the valley. They stop at a safe enough distance not to be spotted by the Gerudo guards. From their vantage point they can spy the bridge and a couple of the guards down there.

 

[Storm]

The river crew see Rhuk cross the bridge, still chasibg that butterfly
