While Mipha’s gift for healing was great, there was no cure for the foolhardy. 

The ocean had a terrible habit of catching unsuspecting ships within her claws and thrashing them about like a child with a toy, its rage mightier than any toddler’s tantrum. Far below, the zora did not like to lend their aid, for their distaste of outsiders had only grown as the centuries passed. Yet when Mipha saw his lifeless form floating she found that she could not leave him there.

His wounds were easy enough to heal but he had not yet woken, though the storm had long since past. Her people had tales of the humans, stories from long ago when their kingdoms lived side-by-side. He was not quite what she expected but perhaps that was because he was waterlogged. 

Mipha waited patiently on the beach, determined that she see this through until he at least woke. Her bright red tail flipped lazily in the shallow tide while she took the chance to admire the fading sun. Seconds passed into minutes before a subtle shift caught her attention; was he waking?

🍃🏹➳ “Hey, you.” Cyrene held her hand up at the man standing by the dock and gave a wave, eyeing the rather impressive ferry ship beside him. It was highly unusual to see a ship other than a fishing canoe docked in Lurelin Village, not after the Calamity hitting the castle-- most foreigners steered clear of the country out of fear, even one hundred years after the fact.

       Whoever this guy was, he was either a brave adventurer, an idiot, or completely ignorant that the apocalypse was upon them, which would also put him under the ‘idiot’ category. Either scenario would allow her to use him for this situation.

       Most people looked at the castle surrounded by the darkness that was Calamity Ganon and saw only death, but a few brave or desperate folk who needed or wanted a lot of rupees saw opportunity. All the old relics, jewelry, and weapons inside could easily net a vast amount of wealth, and the danger just made sure that the place wasn’t picked clean by just any treasure hunter.

      What not many knew, however, that there was a way inside the castle without having to go through the whole rigmarole of entering the front gate through the destroyed town.  The half-Hylian had been there before, one hundred years ago, and was aware of a sea-faring passage that supply ships could take in order to provide for the castle.  The passage started at the Faron Sea, where many Business Scrubs and Lurelin fishermen supplied their cargo, and went up from Menoat River, into Deku Canal, and into Lake Hylia. Further north of that, one could take the Hylia River, and follow it all the way up north until one reached the Hyrule Castle Moat, and from there, the dock could be seen. 

Training wasn’t something he thought he needed but it was a good way to pass time when the sharpening and fixing of weapons and materials had already been done. Robin was never a champ when it came to sitting still. Yes, there were moments where he could enjoy it --- after a long day of shenanigans. But he preferred to keep himself occupied. Even when relaxing, he tempted to drift off to mainly the thought Marian and what she might be up to at this very moment. 

@wayferry​​​  /  three, who was your first muse ? twenty - four, where do you draw your inspiration from ? thirty, other than roleplaying, what’s your favourite hobby ?

three. oh man, like, ever ? i started roleplaying when i was twelve. i can’t remember the specifics but i can guarantee it was a shitty, edgy, emo original character that i thought was cool, lmao. the first ever muse i roleplayed on tumblr, though, way back in ye olden days of … 2011 ? 2012 ? it was rapunzel from disney’s tangled, in a group roleplay ! it was uh … bad. but it’s fun to look back, & see how much i’ve improved since then, even if the cringe is incredibly real !

twenty - four. music is definitely a big inspiration for me when it comes to my muses, i’d say ! (  i can’t promise it’s good music, but there are definitely lyrics & instruments involved, so it counts.  )  i don’t think i’ve ever roleplayed a character & not had a playlist to go with them, of songs i either feel can relate to the character, or just give me vibes for them ! i tend to have two, actually, a normal one of songs which remind me of the character, & then an instrumental one that i can chill to while i write ! & that’s not to say i don’t find myself consciously drawing from other pieces of media, like film or literature, of course, i just ... can’t think of any specific instance of that right now ! (  please excuse me, my brain is fried from work.  ) & honestly ? i get inspired by the writing of others in the rpc, for sure - everyone here has such wonderful ideas & headcanons for their characters, & seeing the enthusiasm others have for their muses, & the enjoyment they get from roleplaying ? it’s really uplifting, & it’s easy to get inspired seeing so many other people coming together to write such wonderful stuff ! … mostly music though, for sure.

thirty. oh god, please don’t ask me to be introspective, i know nothing but play breath of the wild & sometimes write. i’ll be honest, a lot of my hobbies have fallen by the wayside the last year, what with [ gestures towards everything ] but, i really do enjoy drawing. i’m far from the best at it, & i need to practice much more than i do if i want to improve, but i’m not really worrying about that too much, if i’m honest ! it’s fun to just do it, & not care if my anatomy is off, or i can’t colour or do lineart for shit. i draw for my own eyes, my own happiness, & my own self - indulgence. it’s rad as hell.

@wayferry​ : 3, 18, 24! —mun’s ask: rp edition > accepting!

3. Who was your first muse?

ah, days of yore. my first tumblr rp muse was in a group and it was Reina from h.arvest moon t.ale of two towns. my first tumblr indie rp was a guy from an otome game (that blog quickly crashed and burned cause I had no idea what I was doing on indie and I ran straight back to groups). My first muse ever ever was an OC that I wrote in a binder that we passed around between my friends to write in (no I have no memory of what we wrote alkjdas it was jr. high so that was like forever ago, im 30 now)

18. What’s the one thing you want to try the most on your blog?

replies? a steady queue? lol umm....I mean there’s always stuff in general, plots, ships (i love ships), and such that I want to do. mostly, I just want my blog to be a chill place, low anxiety. there’s enough of that in the world

24. Where do you draw your inspiration from?

anemone :   how does your muse view the world ;   as a cruel   &   unforgiving place ,   a land full of wonders ,   or something in - between ?  where does that world view come from   (   what experiences ,   life lessons ,   etc .   ) ? 

I think, with Niamh, she does see the world as a place full of beautiful and wonderful things - but she is all too aware of how much cruelty it contains. She’s been through a lot of terrible things, but managed to hold on to her gentleness and kindness despite it. That isn’t to say that she doesn’t think the world can be unfair, because she does.

lilac :   what was your muse’s childhood like ?   how has their upbringing affected them as they’ve aged ?

She was raised in a big pod, full of cousins and friends. Selkies have a big “it takes a village to raise a child” type of thing, where all of the adults help out taking care of the younger ones. Her parents were very loving (though her mother was a little strict when it came to exploring, because she was very afraid of humans) and she was very close with her sister. It was a typical selkie childhood and she was very happy.

I think her childhood is a big part of why, after she went through so much trauma, that she was able to begin to heal. She went back to her family after everything with Niall, but eventually left again to go explore because she found herself drawn to the land now that she’d experienced it. But she knows her family is always there for her to return to, and that they love her no matter what. Her family and pod giving her so much love is a big part of why Niamh is able to love others so freely.

belladonna :   how does your muse respond to silence ?   do they take comfort in soundlessness ,   or seek to fill the void with noise ?  

When you’re not online, what hobbies do you have?

I do different kinds of art - drawing, embroidery, jewelry making, origami, painting! I also read, play video games, and binge watch youtube lmao

Do you write fan fiction? Or other forms of story writing?
