Turns out the door does like Valanda.

"Is it connected to morality somehow?"

Permalink

"If it is, I don't know how."

Another farmer shouts at them, "You have good taste, not wanting those pumpkins! My carrots are clearly the superior vegetable! Available at my wife's grocery store!"

...The two farmers start shouting at each other. Link mutters, "This again?"

Permalink

"How many people are going to shout about vegetables by the time we get where we're going?"

Permalink

"Ha. Well, farmers are really proud about their work sometimes, so you never know."

They can see a cluster of buildings closer to each other up ahead though, looks like the village proper.

Permalink

"Should I act the same way here as I did in Zora's Domain?"

Everything should be fine but it's impossible to stop worrying.

Permalink

"I can't actually remember all the advice I've given you by now! But you're doing fine. They know me here so if there's trouble and I'm not there just come find me, okay?"

Permalink

"I will, thank you."

Permalink

"If you want some local-style clothes there's a clothes shop. They're kind of pricey though."

Permalink

"What will my clothes affect here?"

Permalink

"Oh, you don't need to. You'll look more local, is all. It affects first impressions a lot. And Hylian garb is probably better for standing up to fighting and the wilderness than what you have now, if I'm being honest."

Permalink

"Sure, I made more than enough at Milliways. ...Are there combinations of things that would look very strange together?"

Permalink

"Oh, don't worry, she'll warn you about those. Claree loves giving fashion advice." Link grins.

Permalink

"Thanks! Are you coming or do you want to meet somewhere after?"

Permalink

"I think I'll poke around in the woods on the far side a bit. We just spent like two solid days together, after all. Plus you can find some good food in there if you know what you're looking for."

Permalink

"Meet you around... there-ish?" He gestures at the closest place that looks like it has more open space than anyone's likely to need suddenly.

Permalink

"Sure thing, between Lady Impa's house and the shrine to Hylia."

Off Link goes.

Permalink

And off Valanda goes to see the clothes shop.

Permalink

Someone dressed in a slightly nicer version of the local style is standing in front of the clothes shop and smiles warmly at Valanda when he approaches!

"Hey, visitor! Come check out Enchanted, the best clothes store this side of the Necluda region! Cute outfits, new this year! Local styles, and ninja gear!"

Permalink

"How many other clothing stores are there in the Necluda region? What are the local truth in advertising laws?"

Permalink

"...What? Advertising laws? Just have a look inside, you'll see. We have some great clothes!"

Permalink

Well that makes it pretty clear how much value her claims have.

Maybe if he stays out here trying to get an answer about the size of the region and...

...Nope, no telling when Link will be done with what she's doing. He enters.

Permalink

She seems relieved.

Inside are a few rows of outfits on mannequins - one looks remarkably like what Link was wearing that first day in Milliways, it just screams 'adventurer's outfit'. There is a sign next to one of the sets that declares it a special, secret weave designed to make as little noise as possible while moving around, enhancing stealth. Ninja used to use clothes like this! The ninja clothes are eye-wateringly expensive, though. There are also some more mundane clothes, including ones similar to what the locals are all wearing.

With a wide grin and enthusiastic posture, the rather pretty lady behind the counter says, "Welcome to Enchanted! I'm Claree, owner, designer, and tailor. What kind of clothes are you looking for today, ma'am?"

Permalink

"I will add one rupee to the price of anything I buy from you or pay you a rupee when I decide to leave if I'm not going to buy anything if you will act as if you believe I'm a man. Anyway what do you recommend?"

Permalink

Her smile falters. "I- You want to look like a man? Huh. I've heard of that. Maybe I can help with that. I'm good with makeup! Orrrr I could make something with nice, wide shoulders for you?"

Permalink

"That sounds great but would it need to be custom to work? I'm not sure how long I'll be staying here."
