Habit and years of solitude were the reason Link had brought his sword and shield with him to what should be a relaxing dip into the pool. He had learned, from his time wandering, that whenever he was alone he should always have his weapons with him just in case. It was the mindset of a warrior who had been far too young to learn anything of the world before he was thrust into saving it. It was the mindset of a young man who had learned his destiny was to always be summoned and then to vanish into nothingness until called upon again. It would be a sad life to anyone aware there was much more to it than that, but his youth and mentality had come to give Link a perspective that made him perfect for that lifestyle.

His sword and shield were set against the tree next to him, and he began to remove his outfit. T-shirt and a pair of shorts he'd come to wear since arriving, setting them next to his equipment. Stripping completely, he didn't bother to look around him, having become accustomed to the idea of being alone, that it wasn't something he thought too much of anymore. His torso was highly fit and showed a life of adventuring and combat; there were scars there, marred skin that showed the extent of his injuries. Sword cuts, burn marks, bite marks, and so on and so forth. An earring in his left pointed ear, and a few tattoos here and there showed a personality that might be otherwise hidden from the quiet kid.

Leaping from the shore, Link hit the water in a nosedive, going deep beneath the waves of the reflective pool, kicking low, before coming up and shaking his long locks of hair out as he came free of the top of the waves. Treading water as he looked around with deep breath, then began to swim back and forth across the pond, deciding to get a bit of exercise in while he had some time.
