Zelda followed Link, then paused to smile up at the tiny fairy. "I stand corrected." She winked, the smile becoming something dangerously close to a grin. Something about the little creature taking down an enormous moblin made her almost want to sing with delight. It suddenly struck her that this was an adventure, the type she'd always wanted to have.
Still smiling, she walked quickly up the stairs, arriving at the top at the same time as Link. Her breath caught in her chest. "Goddess," she murmured, "It's beautiful!" She stared at the ancient structure with silent awe for a few more seconds, then turned back to look at Moira, her expression doubtful. "Are you sure this is the place?" she asked. The Light Temple had been beautiful too, but this place had a peace that seemed to pervade the very air they breathed; that something evil could be contained inside seemed almost sacreligious.

"Yeah, this is it," Moria responded. "Not sure... what's up. Doesn't feel right," she added, rubbing herself as though to heat up. The stairs were out. "It's easy enough to get up," she added, moving over to a tree growing beside the staircase. It bent over at the top, and Moria showed herself skillful enough to shimmy up the tree to the top, where she dropped down. "Not so hard, eh?"

Link stared at the tree and could not seem to figure out how the girl had managed the climb. There were no noticable foot holes and the bark seemed to be flacking off. Link's mind wandered back to the bachine held in his hand and smirked, "Hold on tight Princess." He grabbed onto the girls waist swiftly with right arm and with his left, shot the claw up into the tree. A moment later, the two were sent flying into the air, amazingly landing on a platform, "You were right, that was easy."

Moria nodded. "Different, but effective. Now, shall we?" she asked, answering her own question by turning and pushing open the door. A cold wind instantly slammed into Moria, whipping her tunic and hair into a frenzy. She was driven back a few steps before recovering her balance. The wind stopped, but not without leaving an eerie, two-tone laugh echoing from within the temple. One voice high, one voice deep...

"I'm going to take a guess and say that doesn't normally happen," Link said as he drew his sword from it's sheath, placing the clawshot in his bag.

Moria, palefaced, shook her head. "That's... very unusual." She too drew her weapon, and led the way into the temple.
They came through the entrance unhindered, and found themselves in the entrance hall. It was well lit, and they could see various passageways branching away from the main hall. Then, dead ahead, they saw him.
Moria took a step forward. "Hyn!" she cried, joyfully.
Hyn tilted his head. "Is that the man's name?" he asked. Two voices spoke at once - Hyn's familiar voice and the spirit's high, feminine voice. "Hrm. He refused to tell me. I suppose I understand why. Well, I suppose you want to take the elevator down? I'm afraid I can't let you. You'll have to fight me for it." Letting out another unearthly chuckle, Hyn snapped, and the four flames disappeared, only to reappear following him on the ground. "Very good. See if you can work out what to do." The creature turned, pushed open a door, and disappeared.
Moria was now white as a sheet. She managed to gasp out "Hyn?" Her eyes stayed fixed on the door he had disappeared out of.

Link could seee that the girl was devastated by what they had just seen, but still, if they didn't hurry, the man would get away, "Well you heard him, let's go!"

Zelda didn't seem to hear him. She was still standing at the entrance to the temple as though frozen, her face was just as pale as Moira's, her wide blue eyes fixed unblinkingly on the door the man had disappeared through. All and all, she looked like a girl who had just seen a ghost. "That's-" she began, her voice barely more than a whisper, "That was..." She couldn't seem to marshal her thoughts enough to finish a sentence.

Link began his run after the floating man, only to find when he reached the door that he was alone, "Zelda, what's wrong?" The royall seemed to be as pale as a ghost. The normal collected look on her face seemed to have faded away as well, being replaced with one of fear.

Moria shook her head slowly. "Th... that couldn't have just happened. It's not possible. He wouldn't have... he wouldn't, he couldn't have just fallen like that." Then she suddenly looked up. "He wouldn't have, so... what was that?" With long stride, Moria jogged up to join Link. "You're right, we haven't much time, so let's go!" She flung herself against the door, and subsequently found out that it was locked. Sliding to the ground, she put a hand to her head. "Oh. Ouch."

"Hm, it's locked. I suppose this means we are going to have to look for a key," Link stated, remembering the Light temple.
(I'd write more, but it would seem I have very little information about the room, oh and a** a reminder, link's current weapons are, the master sword, the light staff and the lense of truth, though he does not know what it does.)

"Yeah. Key. I suppose either someone has it or it's hidden somewhere, and I'm going to guess someone has it," Moria said, standing up. It was difficult to see in the room, but there were a grand total of eight exits or entrances - it was hard to say. Two were out of access, high up on balconies. Two appeared to have been blocked off by cave-ins, and were entirely out of the question. One was obviously chained shut, and the last one was in no obvious way blocked off. "I guess that's our best chance..."

"I guess so," Link nodded, then lead the campaign towards the open door. It was obvious that both of the girls in his group were still shaken up, and unfortunately, Link had very little experience dealing with such a situation. The only thing he knew was that they neeeded to keep moving forward. " Zelda, are you coming?"

Zelda was still staring at the door, but at the sound of her name she seemed to snap out of it somewhat. "What?" She looked at Link with something like surprise, as if she had mentally been somewhere far away, somewhere the boy didn't fit. "Oh. Yes, of course." She shook her head as though trying to clear it and followed. Some level of composure had returned to her still-pale face, but it looked forced.
