[Link appears, crouched down and holding a fishing pole] Why does this always happen at the worst times? [looks forlornly at his now empty line]

What were you doing?

Fishing. It's a good pasttime.

Ill luck?

I wasn't doing too badly. I thought I'd felt a bite before I arrived here, though.

That happens to me, now and again. It's certainly inconvenient.

[nods] I still don't understand why or how we even get here. It's starting to get more than annoying.

It's with a thought, conscious or otherwise, that brings us here, and the same thought that brings us home.

Is there any way to keep that thought away?

Don't think about it.

I don't understand. I wasn't thinking about this place when I arrived. So not thinking doesn't seem to work either.

Or did you mean something else?

I see. Sometimes, this place draws people back, whether or not they want to be, it seems.

What's the purpose, though?

An experiment, as far as I know.

Hn. Then there must be a way to stop it.

There must, but without even knowing what they're hoping to accomplish with this, it will be difficult.

Fishing, right?

Yes. I almost had a Hylian Loach, too.

I have no idea what that means.

Ah, it's a type of fish I was trying to catch.

How big is it?

[excited--someone to talk to about fishing!] It's a good size, one of the biggest, and really rare.

You enjoy fishing, too?

I live in the middle of Africa, so I don't get much a chance.

Ever heard of Chilean Sea Bass?

Africa? What's that? And I haven't heard of that fish; is it good?

Big dry place.

[as a response, she flicks off the plane and then returns a moment later with a huge chunk of fish in a little bag, which she drops to the ground]

It's fantastic.

Like the Gerudo Desert. [nodsnods, understanding]

[blinks at the flicking on and off the plane] How'd you...? Nevermind. [checks out the fish] It doesn't look too bad, really.

Not bad? This stuff is expensive.

Oh? Then I'm sure it's really good. [yum, fish!]

I like red meat better, so it's just sitting there.

What's your name?

Ah, ok. Thanks! And I'm Link. Nice to meet you.

Shenzi.

Fishing, hmm? Did you catch anything?

No, but I almost did. [sighs] That fish is rare, too.

Really? What kind of fish was it?

A Hylian Loach! I've been trying to catch one for a long time now.

[Has no idea what a Hylian Loach is] That sounds really impressive! But it got away from you in the end there, didn't it?

Yeah, it did. I like to fish though, so I'll keep trying for it. It's a good pasttime.
