[When the video starts, Link's standing outside his building, staring up at the snow. He looks a little worried at it all, and pulls his tunic around himself tighter. He looks over at the COMP, and frowns.]

[His voice is very quiet when he speaks.]

What do you do when you can't sleep? Or when you have nightmares? I'm not sure what to do.

My mother left me with them when I was a baby before she died.

And he is... was... is... sort of like god, but not nearly as powerful. He watches over the forest.

Oh...that-that's sad. I'm sorry. I understand that, you know. My mom died when I was young.

But um, that's interesting. Did he protect all of you from outsiders that wished to harm you?

[video]

[nofairy]

I never knew her... I guess I should be sad about it, and I am, but I didn't know who she was. I didn't even know I had a mother until a little bit ago.

He did... but Ganondorf cursed him and he died.

[primordial]

You didn't even know- what, were you told you fell from the sky or something? Everyone has a mother, you know.

[A raise of the eyebrow.] Who is Ganondorf?

[video]

[nofairy]

I didn't even know that people had mothers. I mean, I know animals have parents, but none of the Kokiri did. Some of them say that the Great Deku Tree made them... I didn't really think about it.

[Um... how to explain this...]

He's a very bad man. He took over Hyrule for seven years, and people were suffering all the time because of him. He released monsters all over the place, and he wanted to use the Triforce to rule forever.

[primordial]

...

So you honestly thought this Great Deku Tree thing made you too?

[More information, huh. Sam is trying to piece all this together as best he can, but even so, there are blank spots he needs to fill.]

I see. And I'm really sorry for all these questions, but is the Triforce some weapon of some sort?

[video]

[nofairy]

Yeah. I mean, no one told me he didn't, so I just assumed he did.

[He smiles a little gently.]

It's okay. I don't mind. But the Triforce is something that the three goddesses who made Hyrule left behind. There's a piece representing each of them - Din, goddess of Power; Nayru, goddess of Wisdom; and Farore, goddess of Courage. Whoever touches it will have their wish granted - but only if they're powerful, brave, and wise. If they're not, it'll only sort of work, and they have to gather the two pieces that didn't stay with them to try again.
