"I think that's everything!" Amirah chirped as she finished packing her bag. "Darling, do you think there's anything I forgot?" She curiously turned to Rhoam, who was busy sharpening the blade of her claymore.

"Other than this and your shield, I don't believe so." He said, beginning to polish the sword. "I think _____ had your shield last. You should go check with her."

"Alright!" She happily strolled off to your room to find you, and then knocked on the door before you let her in. "Rhoam said you might have had my shield."

"Yep! Right here." You handed the purple shield to her - it had the triforce in the center along with the hylian crest in red below it, and the lining around the shield and any extra designs were in silver.

"Perfect! Thank you for taking care of it for me." She hugged it almost like a teddy bear, and then sighed a bit as she glanced over at your sword and shield lying on your bed. "I think this is gonna be great. Spending a whole weekend with Urbosa! Goddess, we haven't done this since we were teenagers."

"Gonna be glad to not have us around for three whole days?" You joked, and Amirah laughed and waved it off.

"Oh, don't say that. I'm excited to spend time with her, but I will miss you guys. I also expect this castle to be just the way I left it when I return. I'm sure you and Rhoam can hold down the fort for one weekend."

"Yes ma'am!" You saluted to her and she nodded with a smile before heading back to her room to finish getting ready for her trip.

"Mommy?" You heard Zelda behind you so you turned to face the small child, and then she seemed to be a bit disappointed realizing you weren't her mother. "Where's mommy?"

"She's downstairs with your dad, Zelda." She pouted for a moment before you noticed two hands placed on her shoulders, and she was startled a bit before turning around and then beaming to see Amirah.

"Mommy!" She quickly wrapped her arms around her neck, and your sister hoisted her up so she was positioned on her hip. "I wanna cuddle with you."

"Zelda, sweetheart," Amirah brushed a strand of hair out of Zelda's face before kissing her cheek. "I have to leave now before the storm comes around. We can cuddle all we want when I come home in a few days, alright?" She said, and Zelda yawned and nodded. "Let's get downstairs. We're having a quick lunch before I head out."

"So, like I said to _____, I want this place to look the same when I return, alright?" She said as Rhoam fixed the crown on her head while the guards got her horse saddled up.

"It will look just the same the next time you see it, dear. We aren't that bad at keeping an eye on things. Especially for such a short time." He handed her her sword, which she slid into the scabbard on her back.

"Good. I put my trust in your three, mainly you two," She said, eyeing you and Rhoam. "You've both done it before." She hugged you and kissed your head, kissed Zelda's cheek and then Rhoam's lips before hopping on to her horse. "I'll be off then!"

"Bye darling!" Rhoam waved, and Zelda waved too, and you copied them.

"Bye Ami!" She waved and blew a kiss to all three of you before riding off towards Gerudo Town to meet with Urbosa.

"Farewell!"

After Amirah left, you decided to catch up on some work. You remembered leaving a paper in Amirah's room, so while Rhoam went to put Zelda to bed, you went to find it.

It wasn't right there on the top of her desk, and there was only one more place it could've been. You opened the right top drawer, and while you found your paper, you found something else, too.

"Mother's ring...?" You reached out for the small piece of jewelry; now gazing at the purple and golden gems as you held it in your hand.

Normally, finding an old belonging of a relative is a nice thing, but this only confused you.

From the time you were around Zelda's age, you spent most of your time with Amirah and Urbosa due to the... personal drama going on at the time between your parents.

They had gotten divorced just before you turned ten, and as for the story of your mother's wedding ring, she claimed to have thrown it out in the ocean, forever to be lost.

But... here it was, sitting in your elder sister's drawer.

You were frustrated and inevitably curious - while trying not to think it was a huge deal - but with your parents no longer here and Amirah out at Gerudo town, you just had to wait until she got back so she could explain it to you.
