"If it works once it will work twice. There is a slight chance I won't end up where I'm planning but I have fail-safes." He walks slightly to the left and forwards, then jumps up a couple feet into the air before vanishing in a slight flash of silver. If Link's eyes are very good she might catch a brief glimpse of him in midair far above her before he vanishes again. Then he'll reappear on top of the tower. He waves.

She waves back, grinning. "Nice trick!"

And then he's a couple feet in the air beside her. He lands neatly. "So, it's cleanest if we jump but we don't absolutely have to."

Jump!

There's a brief split-second of falling through the air with nothing around them and then they're landing on the platform at the top of the tower.

She has to catch her balance. "Trippy." And then she's going over to this giant - console? - hanging from the roof of the upper platform. She puts the slate on it and it lights up visibly and magically.

Well that's cool. "Is there a way to get rid of the goo?"

"Sometimes there are eyes in the goo. If I can nail one with an arrow or the magic bombs the 'slate will do, that'll get rid of some."

"Do you want to look around and try it or should we just go back to where we were?"

"We might as well try. Malice is nobody's friend."

Data installed, chimes the terminal. She peers at the newly revealed section of map.

zabna looks around to see if he can see anything that looks like an eye.

There are several! And now Link is lining up a shot on one of them with an impressively shiny bow!

Well, he'll just stand back and watch then.

Right in the eye!

And then another one, and then, "Want to try the blue thing on that last one?"

"Sure," he extrudes his laser and fires at one of the eyes.

Poof! She claps politely. "I could glide down from here, make things go a little faster, think you could get over to that plateau with the bubble thing? So finding a Guardian takes just another hour or so, not four?"

"Hm, alright. Longer jumps are slightly riskier but I think I can do it. Same as before I'll try jumping alone first and then come back for you if it works?"

"No offense but I'd rather glide 'n climb. Unless we need to run away very fast or something. The falling-without-falling thing is weird."

"How long will that take you? If this works I'll be over there in a couple seconds."

"Flying is fast! Ten minutes. And I like the breeze anyway. If we were going much further I would use the Sheikah teleport."

"Alright, I'll wait for you on the other side then I guess." He fiddles with his thread scanner for a few seconds then he jumps in the air and disappears. If she's watching closely she might notice three different silver flashes before he appears on the plateau.

She's too busy unfolding a glider and then leaping into the air with a whoop to notice that!

Then he'll spend his time looking around the plateau. He'll stay close to the edge just in case.

It's kind of a boring plateau. There's some wildlife.

There's a large concentration of magic to the south, in the canyon at the far end of the plateau...

And soon enough Link more or less smacks into the cliff wall, then starts climbing the rest of the way up.

He watches, she's a pretty skilled climber, especially for doing it without any technical equipment.
