Link | Breath of the Wild

II: Food glorious food
Link is, on the whole, not usually the most expressive person. He tends to appear stoic and deadpan, his face only rarely revealing his emotions. But when he sees the table full of delicious foods, he gasps with sheer delight.

For a moment he’s wracked with indecision - there’s so much food, and he wants to try all of it. But indecision can't beat his desire to eat, and soon Link is eagerly stocking up his plate sky-high.

But as he stocks his plate, he also puts a few things in his Slate. They won’t mind if he takes some for later, right? Soon some roast herring, several mooncakes, and an entire pumpkin pie just disappear into thin air as Link stores them away.

IV part A: Oranges for ghosts
Link wasn’t really sure why this was, apparently, a test of courage. All of the spirits he’d met - except for the King - had been friends. They knew him. They helped him. So he didn’t really get why anyone would be afraid of them. Spirits were just people, who happened to be dead. What was scary about that?

So naturally, Link didn’t hesitate to grab a magic lamp, a bento, and as many oranges as possible. Then he sets out to find as many spirits as possible. Which, with the magic lamp, turns out to be not very difficult at all.

He ends up in the middle of the cemetery, surrounded by a swarm of ghosts. Regardless of whether the ghosts are friendly, violent, or somewhere in-between, what Link does is the same.

“Orange,” he says, as he hands one out to the nearest ghost. Then a tap at the Sheikah Slate, and he pulls another one out of the inventory. “Orange,” he says again, offering it to the next.

There’s kinda a lot of them though. Maybe he could use some help?

IV part B: Need more oranges
Eventually though, Link runs out of oranges. He’d tried handing out other fruits he had stored in the slate - but while some of the ghosts were happy to take an apple or a pear or maybe even a banana, some insisted on the oranges.

So he’d come back to the start again, to pick up some more.

Though by this point, he’s looking a little rough - evidently, at least some of the ghosts have taken their anger out on him. There are lines of half-dried blood trailing down from his eyes and his ears, and he’s sporting a few bruises from where the ghosts have pushed and shoved him.

But that doesn’t seem to spot him from marching up to the attendants, and saying, “More oranges, please.”
