Lola's P.O.V.

"My father managed to gain the trust of not just those skunks, but also the skunk girl that had been carried out of the creator. Her name was Riana, and she was from Castle Town. She had run away from home on a whim, wanting to get away from the hustle and bustle of the big city. That's why the guards were after her: To take her back." I explained. "The Javalin had glowed upon earning all that trust, so my father decided to head back to the lab where he heard Tellma singing." I added.

"That was some singing." My father said.

"I like to sing sometimes. I sometimes like to sing songs based on future events that have yet to happen." Tellma had stated.

"Really? I'd love to hear that." Zapper said.

"Well...okay." Tellma said.

"This I have got to hear." Expert said. Tellma nodded and began to sing.

"Let your bravery shine...
Don't be held down by fear...
Confront the darkest fears...
Because even under the veil of night, light still shines bright in that darkness.
If you don't believe me, then look up to the night sky.
There you will see the moon and the stars that bring light to that black veil.
Now it's time to fight...
Don't hold back your light...
Fight for what is right...
Because even under the veil of night, light still shines bright in that darkness.
If you don't believe me, then look up to the night sky.
There you will see the moon and the stars that bring light to that black veil.
You no longer are afraid...
You have suffered the worst...
Courage comes deep from within your heart...
Because even under the veil of night, light still shines bright in that darkness.
If you don't believe me, then look up to the night sky.
There you will see the moon and the stars that bring light to that black veil."

Tellma finished singing and everyone; including my father; couldn't help but clap.

"Thank you, truly." Tellma said.

"So, is that song referencing something that'll come to pass eventually?" My father asked.

"Something like that. It's a song of courage. It'll make more sense in the future. It's related to someone that Rob will meet along his journey." Tellma said.

"I can't wait to meet who that song is about." My father said.

"Don't worry, you will." Tellma said.

Author's Note

Originally, Riana was going to be the daughter of Princess Zelda, but upon further consideration, I decided to go this route instead. Tellma's singing was also not brought up in the original narrative, but it was added in here to foreshadow something that'll come later. This chapter may be shorter than usual, but I feel like having that little foreshadowing towards a future event more than makes up for it.
