[The video opens up to show a very worried young woman, long blonde hair framing her face.]

My name is Zelda, Princess Zelda of Hyrule...if anyone can hear this please, I need to return home. I've been told it's not possible but surely there must be some way.

[She worries her lip and tucks a side of her hair behind one pointed ear. There's a pause in her speech as she considers how best to move forward.]

The world I am from is in danger. A great Calamity has befallen my people and our Hero...Please, surely someone out there can help. If you can tell me how to return home, or at the very least if you have an advice on where I can begin looking for answers, I would greatly appreciate it.

That fact has become rather apparent. I apologize...if I had known so many were under similar circumstances...[If she were honest, she overlooked the obvious signs in her own panic. Foolish really--she would need to be more observant in the future.]

It is something yes, though I doubt that knowledge does much to help the worry we all carry for our homes. The...safety of your loved ones--it's something you would long to see for yourself...

[kanadian]

Oh, sometimes... loved ones follow?

[ A half-scoff. ]

Sometimes, anyway. You never know, but... you might not be alone for too long, and at the very least... you know it'll be waiting for you if -- when you go home. Most people do, eventually.

[inmemoriae]

But not always, of course.

[That statement is punctuated by a sigh.]

I suppose that...having hope is never a bad thing, though. After all, it is with hope we find the courage to move forward.

...May I ask...How long have you been here?

[kanadian]

Er -- Three years?

[ Yeah, sorry. He's not encouraging. ]

Some people have been around longer, and some shorter. There's really no way to tell how long anyone is going to stay. Some come and go within a month or two, or...you get stuck. Like me.
