Ashei looks up at the pathway to the mountain. The pelt she wears is warm, shielding her from the icy wind. The mountain has been dangerous as of late. Monsters descend the mountain, attacking the Zoras. An endless blizzard rages, preventing travelers from ascending the mountain.

Ashei frowns. She knows this mountain. She grew up here. But now, something feels alien. The mountain has changed. Even with her strength, she can't climb the mountain now. Not alone. Going alone would be foolish.

Her thoughts drift to her fellow resistance members. Rusl is still recovering. Auru is too old to make it up the mountain. Shad? The scholar, despite his uncanny luck, has no physical prowess to speak of.

Ashei chews the inside of her cheek. What was that friend of Telma's? Link? She had heard stories of his valor, something she finds lacking now in the men of Hyrule. Perhaps she can ask Telma if he is available.
