It had been several days since Sheik turned down Aladdin's offer to accompany her and set out across the Calm Lands alone. To her great surprise, she'd found more than monsters the further she traveled. There were people here, going about their business as if unaware of the castle and perfectly at home. People, and chocobos, the strange riding birds that halved the remaining time to the mountains beyond.
They were... tricky to get the hang of. But that was a matter for another thread.
The temperature dropped the further she climbed up the mountain, past the point where her flightless mount could follow. But, eventually, she reached it. And to her surprise, even in this inhospitable climate, she heard voices from within a cave as she passed.
Keeping to the shadows, she investigated, and within a minute or two she'd discovered the hot springs as well. Aladdin was there, but with him was a strange-looking blue creature who, like so many, she couldn't identify. And as luck would have it, the conversation had just turned to her. Perhaps bad luck. The blue man knew a lot more about her and the Sheikah than anyone had since she arrived here. Who was he?

(Probably she was about to find out.)
