I've heard of The Master Sword before from Tetra..but while it's nice that the sword was trying to avoid having children use it, if you both were actively fighting against Ganon at that age, I think..it probably just made things worse for you and everyone else with all the waiting. I'm sure the land and people suffered, and I know from books that young children can wield swords and be courageous if they have a goal in mind. You two certainly did.
However, it's good that Ganon is sealed. I do have one question though that's a bit unrelated to this..how do the floods tie in with your world? Or is Tetra from a different timeline?
[This response is noticeably delayed, and the handwriting is not as neat as the previous letters. The ink is uneven, and it's clear the hand wielding the pen was a hesitant one.]
Tohko,
All I can say is that life is nothing like the idyllic stories one finds in fiction. Destiny is not fair, nor just, nor kind. I do not know what would have happened in a perfect world where Link did not have to sleep, but I know that it is not my world.
[The writing grows even more tentative, reluctant.]
If it is all right with you, I would rather not talk about the Flood. I will say that Tetra is, in fact, my direct descendant, however.
[And hopefully that's enough for Tohko to put two and two together.]
The stories I am speaking of are not wholly idyllic or kind. I'm sure Wataru and Mitsuru would be pretty annoyed if someone called their journey wholly kind, beautiful, or childlike. They had to face a lot. Murder, fate, and destruction of whole countries. They had different circumstances than you and Link..but Wataru was still able to complete a lot because he was brave and kept going, even though he was young.
..I'm just unsure as to why that was a specific rule of the sword, that's all. And I'm sure that you probably don't know the answer to that question either. And who can say that a world where Link didn't have to sleep would be perfect? No world is ever perfect. Nor is any person.
It's fine if you don't want to talk anymore about your past. However, if Tetra is your descendent, I'm guessing that the seals broke and that the Goddesses took action.

You are right.

[Sorry, Tohko, but things got a little too personal, too quickly.]
