Once the two marks had merged into a single orange mark, he pointed to the telescope mark. "Press that, it should pop up an option to travel. I'll let go, then you select that, and if it works, prepare for the weirdest feeling you will probably ever experience."
He stepped back, letting go of the Slate. The orange mark once again split into a red and a yellow. Link took that as a hopeful sign that not only would the Slate teleport her just fine, the fact that it would merge their signals when they were both touching the Slate might mean that they could travel together, rather than having to literally hoof it everywhere. Especially since a lot of the places they were going to be going over the next however long weren't easily accessible by horse. And the path would be riddled with monsters that he really didn't want to deal with until he felt comfortable that Zelda could hold her own if he had to take his eyes off her more than a few seconds.
