Morgan: What are you doing?
Link:!
Link:(looks away)...
Link: Y-You saw through my web of lies... So I'll tell you the truth...
Link:(sniffs) I accidentally broke my sword!
Link:(sobs) I'm sorry! I know warriors are supposed to take care of their weapons!
Morgan:.... That's it? Link it's just a training sword.
Link:(rubs nose) Yeah... But it's the one you gave me! It is special...
She stares at Link for a moment, then walks over to a closet, where she pulls out a true sword. The sheath was engraved with the golden markings of their homeland. The hilt itself was simple yet possessed a hint of royalty.
This was a royal guard sword and the only other known weapon in the country besides Morgan's.
Link:?
Taking a knee, she presents him with the sword.
Morgan: This is the only blade you should care about.
Morgan: Because it's the only one you can get. If it breaks, then that's it...
Morgan: Take care of it. And only use it for self-defense.
Link:!!!
Wiping away his tears, Link soldiers up and holds out his arms to receive the blade.
Link: I promise! I'll take care of this holy-
She drops it in his hands and the weight of it makes Link fall to the ground.
Link: SHIT!
Link:(struggles to lift it) Why is so heavy!?
Morgan: It's only five times heavier than the average blade.
Morgan: You'll continue training with this.
Link:!!?
Morgan: Your technique is good enough to where we can begin training your body and mind.
Morgan: Once you've developed the muscles to wield this blade perfectly...
Link:(stuggles) I'll be a real knight-
Morgan: I'll no longer go easy on you, and I'll consider you a man.
Link:(happy) Really-
Morgan: And I'll train you even harder than you ever thought possible!
Link:(horrified) Really....?
Morgan: Yes.
Morgan: Are you prepared?
Link manages to lift the blade up.
Link:(struggling) S-So... All that... Is... Going to take...like a year... R-right...?!
Morgan:(smiles)
Link:(horrified)
She leaves Link with his birthday gift.
Morgan:(mumbles) Happy birthday my prince...
(Slam)
Link:.....(looks at the blade)
Link:(Struggling) I-I should show this...to... Diana....!
One step at a time, Link slowly waddles toward the castle to show off his cool new sword to the princess.
The maids worked overtime to doll up the princess per her demand.
With a lovely dress, make-up, and hair, she prepared to leave the castle to meet with Link, however, to her convenience, the boy was already in her yard, beneath the tower where her room was.
