"After the battle..."

Midna's voice cracks - not unusual, given that her voice, despite being for all intents and purposes one of a landbreathing creature, is not half so sonorous and lilting as Ruto's. Oh, lovely, lovely Ruto's. But, there's a difference between a Midna that's tossing off quips and suggestions in flips and turns and a Midna who's struggling to get the words out.

Ruto's...never stopped to think if Twili drink water. She, of all people.

Obviously, Midna's present is a different kind of thirst. Time is short, moments are few, yes, yes, yes.

Whatever please you, my dear.
