--subject seems to have no unique properties...[The video comes into focus mid-way through, featuring Zelda hunched over a desk, furiously taking notes.

She sighs after a moment, moving to pick up something from the side of her desk—a frog.]

I was really hoping there would be something special...those back home would improve speed, performance, attack...and yet, nothing. I don’t know how I’ll manage to make any useful elixir without specialized ingredients.

[She frowns, poking her amphibian specimen and laughing slightly as the frog croaked in response. She finally turns her attention to the camera.]

I don’t suppose any of you know of any animals or plants here that have special properties? Or where one might find some materials to experiment with? I would greatly appreciate any leads you might be able to provide.

You're not going to eat this stuff yourself, are you?

[inmemoriae]

If necessary? Yes.

This is after extensive lab testing of course!

[khajidont]

I know I'm just some stranger, but please promise me that you'll make sure someone else is in the room if you do that.

[inmemoriae]

I--Thank you for your concern. I will...have someone with me. Apparently, the porter deemed it necessary my guard from my world be here as well. I doubt he'll allow me to be too reckless.

[khajidont]

Your guard? Aren't you a scientist...?

[inmemoriae]

Ah...I am a scholar, yes...

Back home I am also a princess. My guard arrived here alongside me...

[khajidont]

A princess scholar, huh? That's a new one!

[ He's met a couple princesses by now, or else he'd be more prone to feeling sheepish in the face of royalty. But here and now? Well, they're just like everyone else. ]

You're not the first princess I've met here, though, and you guys all seem to be a little more proactive than the ones where I'm from. I guess while you're here, you get to just focus on your studies, huh?
