Mercy's mind worked through the blur of events that had just transpired as she found her way back. She fumed in silence; it was as if the air around her could feel the turmoil boiling within her for the woods held a deafening hush. Daphnes had managed to so easily fend off her attacks, but this newcomer; he could have made quick work of Daphnes. The thought made her blood boil and her face hot.<span style="font-style: italic"> What does that make me? If someone that dangerous exists...</span>She shook the thoughts from her head at the sight of the Great Deku and the motley of fairy tale creatures. She elected to stick to the back of the group as the Great Deku addressed them one last time. She leaned against a tree to hear his final cryptic words and she was quite glad she hadn't been standing on her own; her stomach turned and she felt dizzy for a moment. The absurdity of the entire situation almost made her laugh. Was he serious? This group of people would succeed in defeating a creature capable of fending against the gods? Mercy cracked her jaw in a pathetic attempt to vent the turmoil of emotions she felt. It wasn't enough.<br/><br/>Something in her heart sank as she watched the Kokiri recede into the forest. The once bright faces now looked grim and solemn; the sight was too familiar for Mercy to stomach. She turned to face the now silent tree and fury rekindled itself. The feeling seemed mutual throughout the group. Shock and astonishment had been replaced with fear and mistrust which manifested itself in the form of rage; Everyone seemed to be turning against one another. The giant had a dangerous flame in his eyes as he stared down Daphnes; the Gerudo had taken to taunting the creature and the Zora seemed positioned to strike. Even one of the Kokiri had taken to the argument but her empty zealous words, no matter how pure and simple in their intent, struck a nerve. She could no longer keep silent; the words burst from her with a force that surprised even herself.<br/><br/>"The 'will of the Deku Tree' is going to get us killed! You think that just because he gives you an order everything will be okay?" There was no stopping now.<br/><br/>"He's pushing the burden into our hands saying 'Well, I've done my part' knowing full and well that we could fail,". She smashed her fist into the tree she had been leaning on and she pointed accusingly at Eyal<br/><br/>"This 'man' who, just moments ago was set on destroying everything here, is suddenly a fine addition to the team, right?"<br/><br/>She crossed her arms and frowned as she scanned over the 'saviors'. Her eyes stopped on the Gerudo and her frown only deepened. She managed to speak more calmly, but her words were still filled with venom and fury "We're on our own now, and pretending everything will be solved because a tree deems it as such is not going to get us anywhere. I'm not going to say that I know what to do but relying on faith hasn't been our friend so far. We need a plan,"<br/><br/>The girl stood up and let her hands hang at her side as she walked toward the Zora. Her eyes were immediately drawn to the mark upon her arm and she turned to face the guilty party. She looked over him once with a cold almost hateful glare "You're quite capable, Daphnes doesn't need to explain why we should trust you; I think that burden should fall on you, considering there's a blade pointed at your chest,"Her voice had softened significantly as did her gaze.<br/><br/>"So, explain how someone loses their undying hatred and complete destructive intent in a matter of seconds. As the people who have a long way to go together, I want to be assured that I won't wake up to a blade at my throat,"
