Morgan watched Link practice his sword techniques. After 2 years in this peacekeeping country, she couldn't help but marvel at his progress.
Though to her, this level of skill was to be expected from a descendant of a great hero.
But that is a separate story....
Link: Wha!
(SHATTER)
Morgan:?
The young boy slashed at the training dummy with such force, that his wooden sword shattered.
Link:.....
Link: GHAAAA!!?
He hides the broken blade behind his back.
Link: I-I think that's enough training for today... What do you think?
Morgan: I saw you break it, why are you trying to hide it?
Link: I didn't break it! Y-You're seeing things....
Morgan looks at the shattered remains of the sword.
Link: It's the blood of the dummy!
Morgan:(stares)
Link:....
He runs away.
Morgan:?
Diana:(sigh)
Diana:(crosses arms) What did he do this time?
The soldier turns to the princess who suddenly appears beside her.
Morgan: Can I help you?
Diana: It's "may I help you".
Morgan:(glares)
Diana: D-Don't look at me like that! I-I can give you the death penalty you know, stupid!
Morgan:(walks away)
Diana: W-Wait!
Morgan: Spit it out, princess, he's getting away.
Diana: I uhm... Kinda realized that I... Don't know when Link's birthday is... So... Could you tell me?
Morgan:......
Morgan:(counts with fingers)
Morgan: Should be today.
Diana: T-T-Today!?!
Diana: B-But that isn't enough time to find the perfect gift!
Diana: Why didn't you tell me sooner!?
Morgan: You never asked.
Diana: I just found out other people have birthdays... Like... Five minutes ago!
Morgan:.....(walks away)
Diana: W-wait! What are you getting him? I don't want to get him the same thing!
Morgan: A sword.
Diana: A sword...? Agh! You stole the best one right off the bat! No faaaair!
Morgan truly walks away this time, fully ignoring the princess who attempts to decipher what to give Link.
Diana: Hmmmm... I need something to beat her gift...
Diana: What's the best thing a princess like me could give...?
Diana:!
Diana: That's it!
Morgan followed Link's trail back to their cottage. She entered to find Link trying to glue sticks to his broken sword.
Link: Why doesn't it look like a sword!?
