Some parts of the land of Hyrule are rather peaceful.
It's pleasantly cool out. There is a wide open grassy field, cliffs on two sides, a patch of woods on the third, and an honestly intimidating view of high cliffs in the distance off to the right.
There's a campfire here, still burning, though no sign of whoever was using it.
All in all, not necessarily a bad place to get banished to.
"Yeah, I can tell you where the most important bits are. Unless you'd rather disable them so I can fix them up afterwards?"
"It's always good to know what you're dealing with! Maybe some day I'll want to, like, cut off all the legs of one but leave it able to shoot, I don't know. Lay it on me if you can."
She does -- but mostly about the structural information, since she didn't even know to look for files about conjuring or stopping time. "I'll have to go back into that one for those -- they should be inactive so they're safe to poke at, but I'll at minimum want to incorporate the magic into their autopilot."
"That'll make things simpler."
"After meeting up with the Guardian I was going to be paying a visit to a lady named Purah so I could learn more about the tech here. I got some directions to where she lives, do you wanna go with me?"
"Oh, I know Purah! She'll be thrilled to poke a tame Guardian! Might want to disassemble it though."
"Or capture another one. I was going to rely on this one to protect me on the way there."
"The main roads are pretty safe if you've got a sword and a bow or go with someone who does. At least during the day in the Necluda region."
"If you gave me a sword I'd probably stab myself. If you gave me a bow I'd probably shoot myself, somehow. I have a weapon but it has aiming software so I don't shoot my allies -- actually that's another thing Purah might be able to help me with, making bullets for the weapon. I have the specs and the materials in my deck -- although she might need some rarer metals."
"We should go see Purah together, yeah. Paint the Guardian - yellow, maybe? Or white? Oh, uh, just... Don't make fun of Purah, you'll see what I mean when you see her."
".... I might need more of a description to keep from laughing or staring or whatever."
"She's. Small. But she's an adult still no matter what she looks and acts like. A smart one too."
"Yeaaah. Anyway. How are you expecting to paint the Guardian? And are you going to try and ride it like a horse or something?"
"I didn't know what pigment would be easiest to find -- probably red, so the end result will end up being brownish or pinkish. And well. If I'm going to be using it properly I need a harness so that if my limbs suddenly give out I won't fall off. Otherwise it'll just stay on autopilot, which is fine but not ideal if I need to do something unexpected."
"Telling it that the monsters are the bad guys and then staying out of the way would work pretty well... If you can put a chair on it, that'd be a potent weapon! An armored chair, I think."
"I was thinking something where I was lying on my belly, so it would be harder to shoot me."
"It'd be kinda bumpy. But that's your project. You know, there's a guy who runs a dye and paint shop in Hateno Town too. Probably be easier to paint the Guardian there."
"Oh, yeah! ... I don't have much money, though. Only what I'd have from selling this." She shows link the materials she's gathered while scouring the mountain pass.
"Yeah, that's not a lot of cash. We could farm monsters with your pet all-destroying menace and split the profits?"
"Like, what's most important? I don't want to accidentally prioritize some shiny thing I want to research over something that helps you kill more monsters. Or protect yourself."
"We're going to split the profits evenly no matter what you need and what I need unless there's something that's clearly important and we need both halves. I buy food and arrows and sometimes enchanted clothes or armor."
