LEAVING THE CASTLE

Beating Zant was fun but honestly it's not really interesting to pick on the weak anyway now that's done I need to see my mum I make it a point to see her at least once a day she's fallen sick and she isn't getting better I'm kinda worried

ELSU:Hello mother

IRIS:Elsu how was training today?

ELSU:Brutal as always

IRIS:Hmmm I see

Seeing my mother's smiling face was one of the best comfort I had in this castle though I can't say the same seeing her in bed like this

IRIS:Elsu we need to tal

ELSU:About what if I may ask?

IRIS:I'm being poisoned

ELSU:Hmmmm...That's a joke right?

Normally when mother is joking she has this calm aura but seeing her serious face I could tell that she wasn't screwing around

ELSU:You're serious?!!

IRIS:Don't worry it's a slow acting poison well the best it can do is just to incapacitate me

ELSU:Wait mother you are being poisoned how can you be so calm?

IRIS:I already expected this you need to escape

ELSU:Escape what about you?

IRIS:Don't worry I'll be fine they won't kill me well not yet

ELSU:Ok so how long do I have before you are killed?

IRIS:I don't know but my brother will help you

ELSU:Mother I can't leave you not like this you could die at any moment

IRIS:I won't die I promise not before I at least see your wife

ELSU:This is not the time to be joking around

IRIS:Please my son just run away for me ok I don't want you to die

ELSU:Alright fine when do I run?

IRIS:Not now in time you will know

ELSU:Alright fine

I looked at her smiling face I was frustrated I couldn't do anything for her

IRIS:That's my boy so I heard you got into another fight

ELSU:Ugh

And so I had to explain myself to mum
