The evening was filled with restless sleep for the heroes of Hyrule.  If time was on their side they may have been able to find rest and peace within the finer rooms of the Blue Candle INN.  However with war ravaging the southern stretches and beginning to creep in on their own lands, the repercussions were echoing and clear.  It had been<b>4</b>days since the beginning of their quest, and it was going to take them from this relatively safe haven sooner than they'd like.<br/><br/>As Kaihel began a walk in the night, the torches flickered and lit his path as well as they could, but the shadows they cast drew images of the undead in the palace they had rescued from Ganon's clutches.  Visages of skeletons, dragging broken bodies across the floor...  He noted how unprepared for an attack this town really was.
