...

Wait... Link? Is that you under there?

I'll give it to our ancestors—the foundation they
laid has carried the Gerudo through every storm
we've had to face...

But we can't keep relying on our history. If we
want our future to stay bright, we have to work
at building it right now.

How will I... No— How will the entire Gerudo
people of today be seen by those who come
after us?

Heh! To think I'd be sharing such fears with
an adversary.

Credit where it's due. You're not like most Hylians
at all.

As long as I can remember, Nabooru has always been blazing
a path ahead of me... Oh how I admired her...

I can't keep following in her footsteps forever, can I? It's time to
step out of her shadow and forge my own path too.

Oh, it's you. I almost wasn't sure.

Thanks again for helping Nabooru, Link. The
Gerudo are in your debt.

Although... I think I'll have to repay my part
another day.

I've decided to take some time away from this
place once Ganondorf returns.

Hearing Nabooru's story has me thinking about
my own...

I want to become a Gerudo that I'm proud of.

Oh, it's just you...

The gatekeeper told me you'd gotten past the
quicksand and entered the storm.

So the fact that you're standing before me now
must mean...

Really? So Nabooru is... She's still alive?

You have no idea how good that is to hear...

She was always a lone wolf, never failing to uphold
her own sense of morality.

If what you say is true, it would seem she's cut her
own path once again.

By the way... I never asked your name, did I?

Then know that we are in your debt...Link.

Perhaps the time has come for us to follow our
hearts instead of ancient traditions...

I'm looking forward to hearing what the exalted
Nabooru has to say about you.

I don't love the idea of approaching someone
while in disguise...

But I won't question your methods. So long as
you get the job done, wear whatever you want.

I've informed the others about you. You should
have no trouble coming and going as you need.

The journey to the Spirit Temple will not be an
easy one... But know that Nabooru's fate may rest
in your hands.

Yes. The exalted Nabooru was once the honored
leader of this fortress.

Ever since I was young, I've admired her.
Unshakable courage. Steadfast conviction to her
own sense of justice. A real lone wolf.

So you can imagine my surprise when she became
leader of the fortress as the mighty Ganondorf's
right hand.

Ah, she always took such good care of us...

Which is why it pains me to entrust a task so
vital to an outsider.

But alas, you find us in desperate times, indeed.
Ganondorf has forbidden us from entering the
Spirit Temple.

Yes. The Spirit Temple is a place where we can
offer worship to our goddess.

It lies beyond quicksand and sandstorms, deep
within the Mirage Desert. Few can survive the trek.

The journey there is so dangerous that even we
cannot attempt it on a whim.

So why would Nabooru travel there all on
her own?

I should have done more... I should have gone
with her, even if I had to force my way to her side.

Anyway... You're as prepared as you'll ever be.

The Mirage Desert lies just beyond the rear gate.
Remember... We're counting on you.

You're free to move around the fortress as you
please. But cause any trouble, and I promise you'll
regret it.

Just focus on finding Nabooru.

If I were you, I'd begin my search at the
Spirit Temple.

Ganondorf won't be returning here for quite
a while.

He is operating on a much larger stage than our
little fortress: that of the entire world!

And our exalted Nabooru is crucial to his
continued success.

So regardless of cost, regardless of method, we
MUST bring her back. I doubt our king will punish
us for making sacrifices... Hm?

This conversation doesn't concern you, Hylian.

Just focus on finding Nabooru like we agreed.

Make it to the Spirit Temple, and I'm sure you'll
find a clue of what happened to her.

With our leaders gone, governing this fortress
rests squarely on MY shoulders. Not yours.

And if a sword does come, it will be mine to
fall on. Hm?

Eavesdropping, are you? Seems sticking your nose
where it doesn't belong is a habit of yours.

In truth, many of the others here see you as
little more than a fly to be swatted.

Fortunately for you, the person in charge at the
moment is me.

Pay their glares no mind, Hylian. Just focus on
tracking down Nabooru as we agreed.

The Spirit Temple. If I were you, I'd begin my
search there.

Once he returns...

The exalted Nabooru is...

Hold that thought...

Nabooru... Just how much more worry do you intend to put
me through before you're satisfied?!

You... You're the one I look up to... The only goal I've ever
aimed for... You better be alive, or I'll never forgive you!

You play well.

It's catchy, at least...

What's that instrument?

Quite nice.

What's that instrument?

What's that song?

How moving...

Not bad, I guess.

A song from your home?

Never heard that one.

Not bad, I guess...

I really liked that one.

Never heard that one.

Not bad, I guess.

A song from your home?

Never heard that one...

Not sure I liked it.

A song from your home?

Quite nice.

It's catchy, at least...

I really liked that one.

This song is familiar...

My spirit stirs...

I really liked that one.

Quite nice.

It's catchy, at least...

What's that instrument?

Never heard that one.

A song from your home?

You play well.

So...sleepy...

Not bad, I guess.

You play well.

Go on—try it!

You better not miss!

Think that'd scare me?

You've lost your mind!

Put out the flames!

Behave yourself!

Why, you!

You've lost your mind!

How overconfident!

Ack!

Guh!

It's a fight, then?!

You're done!

Why, you!

Now you've done it!

Having a pass does not make you an exception
to punishment!

Permission or not, violence against the Gerudo
will NOT be tolerated!

Into a cell with you!

You trespass upon the fortress of the Gerudo!

Who's there?! You can't escape me!

Aha! I knew I heard a rat scurrying about!

Where did you come from?!

Intruder! Capture him, now!
