"Don't be silly, Link! You can't bring those Remlits in--huh?"

The teenage girl with bright yellow hair and rather prominent pointy ears stops in front of the doorway. The door closes behind her as she stares at her unfamiliar surroundings--and she jumps, startled, much like a certain childhood friend does whenever a door closes behind him.

"...Link...? Where...?"

She tugs the door open just far enough to confirm the view outside of it: Link still standing in front of the Bazaar with a small herd of Remlits. He seems rather preoccupied with that, so preoccupied that it seems cruel to pry his attention away from his kingdom to ask if he sees what she sees behind the door. All that aside, she wonders...he did say he got those flowers from a bar...

Zelda closes the door behind her, and cautiously makes her way into the bar.

She looks new. Kate's struck by memories of when she first walked in, all doe-eyed and confused.

"Howdy."

Her smile is warm and friendly, peeking out from under the shadow of her cowboy hat. She's leaning against the Bar, nursing an iced tea.

"You lookin' for someone in particular, Miss?"

[thezeldaoflegend]

Hmm. This woman looks a bit odd. Close enough to the folks at home, but the clothes would set her apart. And the ears--does she have any? But that's the least of her worries, wondering into a strange place like this, and the friendliness is welcome.

She wanders over to Kate's spot on the bar, still a bit nervous. "Do you...know a boy named Link?"

[ikissdhimbck]

She purses her lips in thought.

"I don't think I've had the pleasure, yet. You meetin' him here?"

[thezeldaoflegend]

"I don't think so. But I think he might be here. He told me about this place before, and, well, I didn't believe him--but here I am!"

[ikissdhimbck]

Her smile returns.

"You're new here, then? Welcome t'Milliways. First drink's free, an' — well, nothin' will prepare you for the oddness of the place, but it is mostly harmless."

[thezeldaoflegend]

"At least I was warned," she says cheerfully, "but thanks." She offers a hand. "My name is Zelda. What's yours?"

[ikissdhimbck]

She straightens in order to grasp the lady's hand.

"It's a pleasure t'meet you. I'm Miss Kate Barlow."

She offers Miss Zelda the seat next to her.

"Your friend's already told you all 'bout the place, then?"

[thezeldaoflegend]

Zelda's clothes are a touch old fashioned compared to others, so she has to fold her skirt forward before sitting down. Once she's seated, though, she proceeds to swing her legs like a contented little child. Her friend may have some problems with his height, but she has absolutely none with hers!

"Not all about it. He told me its name and some of the things he's seen here, but he's not exactly the best when it comes to giving details."

[ikissdhimbck]

"Ah."

She'll hear no remarks on her height from the five-foot-one-inch cowgirl. She, in fact, finds the swinging feet rather endearing.

"Well, anythin' you'd like t'know, jus' ask me. I've been comin' here four years now, an' help run the stables out back.

"Can I get y'somethin'?"

[thezeldaoflegend]

"Can I get anything for free? Any drink I want?"

It's kind of overwhelming, trying to think of a drink she can get for free without it being a waste.

[ikissdhimbck]

"Absolutely. Miss Bar's got anythin' y'could ever dream of."

[thezeldaoflegend]

"Hmm. I think I'll take some warm cider, then. It's been a while since I've had any."

[ikissdhimbck]

Without any further prompting, the cider appears in front of Miss Zelda. Kate touches the Bar gently.

"This here's Miss Bar. She takes care of everythin', unless she's sleepin'. We got a couple bartenders who fill in durin' those times. Ask one'a them for a 'smoothie' sometime. Y'won't regret it."

Kate has a mild obsession.

"May I ask where you're from?"

[a1enzo]

As she nears, a big green boy looks up, curious. Though it takes a few seconds before he's actually looking at her.

What he's mostly doing, both before and after he notices her, is sniffing the air.

[thezeldaoflegend]

Well Link never told her about the green people! And she's not so awkward as to just stare and then hope he won't notice she's staring like, so she makes her way over to him and waves.

"Hi! Can you tell me where I am?"

[a1enzo]

"Sure! But you might want to sit down for it."

Newbies are often prone to some degree of shock. Best to be safe. Though she's taking the fact of a green dude pretty well in stride.

[thezeldaoflegend]

"Okay!" she says, pulling up a chair.

For a newbie, she seems rather eager to learn--the way an archaeologist would seem on the verge of a new discovery.

[a1enzo]

That's certainly promising.

"You're at the end of the universe," he informs her once she is safely seated. "The multiverse, really, all sorts of universes meet and end here. This place is called Milliways."

[thezeldaoflegend]

"The end as in a...dead in, or...?"

"Death" being implied.

[a1enzo]

"End of time. But we're safe here... pretty much. I mean, some people here are dead, but only 'cause they died in their own worlds, not because of here."

Argh. Words.

[thezeldaoflegend]

"...what?!"

Link didn't tell her about the dead people, what.

[a1enzo]

"Yeah, I know, it's weird. But I don't really get afterlives anyway. I know about ghosts, but that's it."

[thezeldaoflegend]

"Uuumm..."

You're kind of imploding her mind, Enzo.

"--I guess I should tell you I already knew about this place. A friend of mine comes here. But he never told me about the spirits!"

Nobody ever warns her about the spirits!

[a1enzo]

"Oh! Well, they're not really spirits. Most of them, anyway. They're just people, but... they're dead in their worlds. I mean, they've got bodies and everything. They just can't go home."

[thezeldaoflegend]

"But is this...some sort of after life? It's not one I've ever heard of..."
