[attr="class","dorado2"]At this point, Selene didn't know where home was. Was it the land she had just come from? Years ago, she left it, and the homesickness in the beginning was overwhelming. Over time, it faded, but never went away. Her recent trek to Termina just half a year ago gave her a lump in her throat. What would everyone say? How would she be received? That wasn't at the top of her mind, for her true reason for heading back home from her new adventure was her ill mother. Of course her mother was happy she was there, even though she could barely crinkle her lips in a smile. However, every night she spent in her old house... her old childhood room, the one she grew up in... The less it felt like home. It all felt like a distant memory, even though she was there. Her sister didn't help any. Even though Selene dropped everything go to home and support her family, her sister was as insufferable as ever. The stress of taking care of their mother was to be expected, but she had been downright cruel to Selene. Every moment pushed her away from that place. In a way, it was relieving to have her mother pass. Her connections to Termina were... officially torn. All that was left in her throat was a hollow feeling, her place in the world unsure and teetering between two places. Though she couldn't help but feel a bit of excitement to head back to Hyrule. Though she had lived there for a few years already, there were still so many places to explore and people to meet. The main cities were much larger than any place she had ever been. It was those thoughts that kept her caravan moving. Saffron, her trusted horse, pulled her small cart with what seemed to be enthusiasm. He probably missed his homeland, since he was born and raised in Hyrule, unlike herself. He also probably missed having his own paddock among a large ranch, and a delicious meal every morning and evening. And, of course, the one who helped take care of him. Just over the hill would be the entrance to Ordon Village. And even further in would be the ranch both of them had come to know and love. Just a short ways away, Josh would be back in her life. If he was even home. It wasn't as if she sent a letter expressing her desire to come back to Hyrule... This was completely unannounced, a surprise if you will. Daylight was beginning to break over the tops of the trees, and she figured she'd be at the ranch by early morning. She stopped for a moment at the top of the hill, to just stare at her surroundings. The light breeze of the morning calmed her whirling mind. The furrow of her brows suggested the pain she was going through, but for a moment, the breeze lifted a small smile to her face. "I guess I am... home," she said softly, the wind carrying her words into the air.
