WHY BE AFRAID OF THE DARK? (ZELDA)

[Abraham]

The castle was eerily quiet.

Day had faded to night, and the castle had donned its appropriate, timely evening look. The candles of the halls were lit, and footsteps on the carpet lining the long hallways were quiet but audible, as nothing else was to be heard. The castle was almost too quiet on most nights, with all those who dwelt in its walls asleep for the night, or like Abraham most often was, locked away in their rooms.

Tonight, however, was a different occasion. Abraham never had much to say to anyone, and didn't intentionally plan on running into anyone either. His curiosity, though, had gotten the best of him, and he decided to take a walk and simply explore the castle in the comfort and solitude of the night. So, therefore deciding to step out of the comfort zone that was his room, Abraham closed the door to his bed chamber quietly behind him. His common dark, oversized black cloak was draped around him, and he lifted the hood, turning quietly to the left, and he proceeded down the hallway.

The tall, elegant-looking windows shone out to the starry night sky and the moon that was the primary light source. Hyrule Field seemed to beautifully lit on this eve; it attracted Abe, who strolled to the window a moment to stare out, his bright purple eyes also reflecting some of the light that was glowing through the massive windows.

Oftentimes the young Sheikah let his mind wonder off and think about recent events or people. Unsurprisingly, his clever mind shifted its focus to Zelda, who had, for a good portion of his life, been a close friend and a confidant. He indeed respected her judgement and rule over Hyrule, and looking out on the quiet and peaceful land reminded him that it was due to her political finesse that such peace was possible.

Smiling quietly to himself, Abe turned from the window and continued his walk quietly down the vast and empty hallway of the castle, lit only by the soft glow of the moon and the few candles surrounding the hall.
