Summary
Wars’ was jovial, flamboyant, a mood changer. For having his lower face perpetually covered by a cloth mask, he didn’t struggle an ounce to express himself, hands waving, eyebrows bending, apples of his cheeks rounding in an unseen smile.
What lay underneath was never going to be kept a secret forever, though. Not when you travel this long with this many.

Summary
Wind can’t help but hate seeing ghosts sometimes, hate being witness to suffering that he can’t stop, loss he can’t fix, separation that is eternal, for all that they’re right. There.
It’s always too late with ghosts, and there’s nothing worse for a hero than a person that can’t be saved.

Summary
It seemed like just a normal bout of insomnia, even if three days without sleep was longer than he'd ever suffered.
Except as the third night passed with Legend still unable to sleep, he began to think that this may not be so simple as passing out the minute all those waking hours finally clumped together and took him out at the knees.
By the fifth night, he was already past the point of having faculty enough for thoughts like that anymore.

If it had been bad on Skyloft growing up, it was certainly worse on his adventure down on the Surface, running on stamina fruit and desperation.
Now, weeks of straight travel on the road later, it was taking a far more sinister turn.
