The journey from the castle towards the city of the Gerudo has been.....difficult. The terrain, of course, had done little to help, but the tension between the two travelers had put far more bumps in their path. The princess knew that is was Link's sworn duty to protect her, but nobody seemed to consult her as to whether or not such protection was warranted. She was plenty capable of taking care of herself without a babysitter. Not that said guardian was willing to discuss the matter.
She thought it had been bad enough in the castle, having a second shadow following her wherever she went. But out here, it was nearly torture. She could not even ride at a decent pace, lest she be warned of the possibility of falling and hurting herself. Zelda considered herself patient, but it was getting close to wearing through. She tried to keep her mind off of him while writing in her journal, but found his presence too distracting to make any real progress.
