That'll do! He lets the cook know this is more interesting than any food they have back in Har.

"It's all in the sauce, sha. All in the sauce. Northerners have all kinds of food but fish is cheap here so you learn to make good stuff with it."

Sounds legit.

He hangs around watching the water and listening to goings-on in the village while he waits for Bubo to (probably not) have finished with the other elixirs.

Permalink

Bubo did manage to finish the other elixirs! Or so he claims. Here they are.

That stranger has woken up from her nap and is wandering around again, asking people about monster nests! Apparently that other guy has monster-killing magic already got at least one. She'll keep an eye out for him. Oh well, what about shrines?

Convenient, he's been wondering about her.

"Hey there."

Permalink

"Hey. I saw you earlier, out on the beach? I'm Link. Probably."

Permalink

"Yeah, it was cool how you killed those monsters back there. I'm Mahan, a death mage from far away."

Permalink

"Yeah, I've learned a thing or two. Death magic, huh? Sounds scary strong. I'm guessing it kills things?"

Permalink

"Yeah, I can kill anything. How about you, what's your magic?"

Permalink

"I'm blessed by Goddess Hylia. Or do you mean the Sheikah Slate?" She grabs the little rectangular thing and appears an apple from nowhere, to demonstrate. "I'm not sure how it works, but it likes me, I guess."

Permalink

"You don't have your own?" Obviously she has her own.

Permalink

"Hmm... I can move really really fast and reflect attacks sometimes, but it's pretty unreliable? Most of the cool stuff is the Slate or Hylia's blessing."

Oh, it's just hard to get big accidental effects from the local magic, that explains a lot. Kind of a relief to realize it's that simple and everyone's definitely a mage after all.

"You know, local magic seems a lot harder to screw up by accident, at home no one's native magic is that convenient! I bet it makes raising kids a lot easier."

Permalink

"If all the kids had death magic... Yeah. Yikes."

Permalink

"Yeah, exactly. At least we have command magic, I can't tell if you have that here."

Permalink

"Doesn't sound familiar..."

Permalink

"You're better off without it if you don't have a lot of magical accidents or criminals. It's useful at home but we have a lot of both of those."

Permalink

"Well, criminals are a thing. And the Yiga Clan. Bandits and sometimes murderers. Damn Yiga. But anyway, most magic is kind of hard to understand and only a few people can really do it, yeah."

Permalink

"What's the Yiga Clan and would it improve anything if they all dropped dead?"

Permalink

"They worship Ganon instead of Hylia. They're... Misled, I think. They don't understand how evil he is, how he'd kill them all given the chance. I don't really want to kill them. But they still hurt people. I don't know."

Permalink

"We don't have gods and spirits at home, what's worship?"

Permalink

"It's... Thinking at them, talking to them, thanking them for things, or making sacrifices? Treating them as important, I guess...?"

Permalink

"Thinking at them? They hear your thoughts?"

Permalink

"I don't know. Hylia only answers me if I really really need her, or a lot more easily if I'm at a shrine or temple."

Permalink

"Is there a way to make them definitely not hear your thoughts?"
