She looked up at the Zora a little inquisitively, examining him for a moment before continuing.
"Rosalinde," she replied, pulling her bandage tight and tying it up before she went to stand unsteadily, blood rushing from her head causing her to nearly fall over again.
"Who's this 'Link'?" Rosalinde inquired, "Is he a Kokiri?"
It would have helped if Nabooru had given her a name as well, but she didn't blame her. She had to get back there with the gauntlets, they would surely give her prodigous strength, and combined with her speed and finesse she could likely defeat those two witches and break Nabooru out.

You'll have to ask Richard about him, I'm just the tough guy.
Leonidas laid on his back, strumming his guitar, playing a song he had written himself. It was A fast song, influenced by a vision he had of a strange futuristic band.

Richard stepped into the mouth of the tree and found himself inside a circular room with a pit dug into the ground, which dropped off into the ground under the tree. He looked around and saw several ledges with bridges streaching across them and a ladder leading up to the top of one. 'Interesting tree.' Richard muttered to himself, as he walked to the edge of the pit.
As he looked down into the pit, he could see that it dropped for several feet into some water. He looked up into the tree and saw that the path spiraled all the way up. 'now which way?' he thought.
Finally, he decided to ascend the tree, and then go down into the pit if he had to. He climbed the ladder up to the top of the first ledge, and found himself face to face with a strange skull-like spider. He recognised it for what it was, as there had been a family in Kakariko Village that had been cursed into something similar untill... untill one day they all finally came out saying that... saying that a young boy dressed in green turned him back into Hylians again... 'who is this boy?' Richard thought 'and why is he apparently known all across Hyrule?'
Richard turned his attention back to the Skulltula, which was swinging back and forth on it's web. Richard took up his sword, and swung it hard at the Skulltula, but it just hit the skull-like armor with a sharp tink. The Sulltula swung on it's web, then spun as hard and fast as it could, knocking Richard back to the ground below. 'Damn' he thought as he got back to his feet, and looked up at the Skulltula. The Skultula spun again, and he saw that it's side that wasn't covered by the Skull-shaped armor was soft and vunerable. Richard quickly returned his sword to it's scabbard and removed his slingshot and two rocks from his pocket. Carefully aiming he loosed the first rock which hit the Skulltula's armor with a dull thud, causing it to spin again. Richard loosed the second rock as soon as the soft side was facing him. The rock hit home, and the Skulltula hit the ground hard. Richard looked up into the tree, wondering what else was waiting for him inside what used to be the guardian of the Kokiri Forest.

Rosalinde sighed, being forced to seek out the Hylian wasn't exactly something she was looking forward to.
"Alright then I'll go talk to this Richard," Rosalinde said, flexing her arm a little as she wandered off through the Kokiri village, skipping across a few isles in the makeshift moat around the entrance to the Deku Tree's grove, idly walking passed a dozen animated plants that were unsuccessfully trying to hit her.
The Great Deku Tree stood before her soon enough, withered and grey, leaves slowly falling from its branches.
"And he was worried that I would do something," Rosalinde muttered, she knew Ganondorf's work when she saw it, one of the reasons she was so mistrustful of her king.
The front of the Deku Tree was open like a vast door, so Rosalinde figured Richard had gone inside, she flexed her left arm again, trying to encourage its regeneration.
There were lots of plants and herbs around the forest that had almost magical healing properties, she'd have to keep an eye out for one.
She entered the tree cautiously with her right hand resting on a scimitar hilt, wondering what could possibly live inside a famed Tree.

In the top of the tree, Richard looked down at the path he had climbed, then he saw her. That Gerudo was walking through the doorway into the tree. "Damnit, Leonidas... I give you one simple task, to watch a wounded Gerudo." he muttered to himself. "well, it's not like there is anything she can do to a dead tree. But if she even so much as touched a hair on one of those Kokiri, I will have her head... and Leonidas' too if it is still attached."

"Where'd that damn Hylian get to?" Rosalinde grumbled as she looked around the tree, idly kicking one of those plants again as it attempted to bite her, not all that concerned.
She did find a particular plant however, tucked away in a little niche off to one side, behind a soon-to-be dead Deku Baba.
Rosalinde sheathed her scimitar as she went over and knelt beside the plant, pulling out a dagger to cut a few leaves free as the Deku Baba behind her crashed to the ground dead. The plant healed itself almost immediately, confirming its properties so Rosalinde took off the bandage and crushed the leaves onto her wound, gritting her teeth a little as the juices left the leaves and entered the wound.
The pain faded almost instantly and her arm felt perfect once more, Rosalinde stood up renewed and looked around the Tree again.
There was a hole in the floor, or a path that reached up through various ledges, however the hole seemed to have a lot of mangled webs dangling from the edges, spiders weren't that clumsy with their webs so clearly something had happened.
One edge of the hole gave way to a wall wreathed in thick vines, she couldn't help but be curious.
"Wonder if that Richard guy went down here... Seems like someone did," Rosalinde wondered aloud to herself, before beginning to scale the vines down into the hole.

Having finished searching through all the rooms at the top of the tree, and killing several Skulltulas he decended back to the ground floor.
Once Richard reached the bottom, he looked down the hole, and began climbing down the vines, which led under the fabled tree. He reached the bottom with relative ease, and had to roll to dodge one of those plants. He came to his feet, and easily severed it's head from the stem.
Richard looked to the right, and noticed a Deku Scrub huddeled against the wall on the other side of a stream. He looked to the right and a block which had been pushed into the stream, shortening the gap from one side of the stream to the other so that it could be jumped.
Richard jumped across the stream and walked over to the Scrub.
Queenie is dead... killed by the boy in green.
"What?" Richard asked the Scrub "What about a boy in green?"
Oh, Queenie... Kingie is very angry now... Very angry. The Scrub wailed, not even acknowlaging Richard.
Richard reached out and turned the scrub's head toward him.
"What happened?" He asked
Queenie is dead... Killed by the boy in green... Kingie is angry now an is killing all of us Scrubs. Queenie kept us alive... Kingie hates us... Our dear Queen Gohma... Killed by the boy in green... Now King Gohma has returned to find Qeenie dead... He blames us Scrubs.
Richard looked at the Deku as it huddled up against the wall again. "Gohma?" he said to himself as he stood again. "That does not sound good..."

Rosalinde was idly hanging from the roof near the vines casing the room when the Hylian came down and went over to a Deku Scrub.
"Well that's interesting," Rosalinde said after hearing them, swinging off and landing with a roll near Richard and the Scrub, "I suppose this 'Link' is the green boy, where did he go?"
It seemed the Scrub was terrified of this 'Kingie', she had no idea what it was but most kings had treasure. She jerked her head a little, now wasn't the time for treasure, that green boy was out there somewhere with those silver gauntlets.

Richard looked at the Gerudo. "Even if I did know, I wouldn't tell the likes of you." he said. "Now if you will excuse me, I have some business to attend to." He said walking to the nearest door.
((I wonder what a King Gohma should look like...))

Rosalinde rose an eyebrow at Richard, not really understanding him but it wasn't like she cared, instead she knelt beside the Deku Scrub and examined it for a few moments.
"Your King sucks too huh?" Rosalinde said to the Scrub conversationally, "Yeah I know that feeling... Tell you what, I'll go kill the king, maybe you can tell me more about 'Link', he has something of mine."
She looked around the room idly and noticed another hole in the floor, a small hole in the wall like she had seen in the Spirit Temple, only the hole in the floor had scorch marks around the edges. This Link had obviously gone down there at some point, so Rosalinde slid over to the edge of the hole and looked down, seeing the wall wreathed in vines as well with water at the bottom.
With a shrug she just leaped down and caught onto the vines, making small falls down the vines periodically before landing in the water with a splash.

((Kinda what I was thinking))
Richard landed behing the Gerudo with a splash. "That king may have a clue as to where the item I am seeking may be." He said, checking that his sword is clear in it's scabbard. "I'm coming too."

Leonidas had fallen asleep on the grass, his fingers limp on the strings of his guitar. A group of Kokiri were standing over him, apparently curious. One bravely touched him with its toe, and he instantly jumped up and looked around. The Kokiri ran away, frightened, and Leonidas realized that Rosalinde wasn't there.
"Richard's gonna kill me..."
He sighed to himself and started running towards the Deku Tree. He finally got there and warily stepped into its mouth, looking up and around for Richard and Rosalinde. He didn't watch where he was stepping, and fell right into the hole, landing with a splash next to the other two.

Rosalinde shielded her face slightly as the other two landed down in the water ner her, she just shrugged at Richard.
"Just don't try any stupid tricks on me while I'm killing this king," Rosalinde said, gliding through the water to the edge and walking out a little awkwardly, her garments quite water-logged.
"Brilliant, soaked again," Rosalinde sighed, checking to see water hadn't gotten into her scimitar sheathes, "Of course I figured I'd mostly be doing things in the desert when I made this outfit."
She stomped her boots a little to knock some water off as she looked around the room. The only way out of this place seemed up the vines or through a door, though she wondered where all the doors came from when it was inside a Tree, but she didn't complain.

Richard shielded his face from the splash as Leonidas landed, flat on his stomach, next to Richard. "How kind of you to Join us." Richard said looking at Leonidas, who was climbing to his feet. "Nice landing, by the way. I give it a 10/10 for style and comic relief."

Rosalinde continued to beat some of the water out of her clothes as she grinned at Leonidas's entry.
"So, Richard is it? Looking for an item are we?" Rosalinde said conversationally as she went over to the door and examined it for a few moments. It was quite an old door, seemed to be almost growing, kind of stuck in place as Rosalinde soon figured out.
The Gerudo gave it a swift kick and a sharp nudge, and the door slid out of the way.
"Can't imagine what it would be," Rosalinde said, looking inside cautiously.

Richard looked at the Gerudo, then turned murderously back to Leonidas. "Dammit Leonidas, you told her my name? Do you not remember anything I told you before we went into that valley?"
Without waiting for a response, Richard shoved the Gerudo out of the way and walked through the door.

Rosalinde folded her arms for a moment as she looked at Richard pass through the door, still pressed up against the wall where he had pushed her.
"You know, it's understandable for there to be aggression towards Gerudo, but I thought it would have been clear by now that I follow Nabooru's code, not Ganondorf," Rosalinde said, rather unimpressed, "I'm Rosalinde, if you're that upset about names."
This Hylian was by far the most hostile toward Gerudo she had ever seen, sure there were people who were obsessed but this one was different.
At the very least with him going first Rosalinde was quite safe from any surprises this old tree could throw at her, she wasn't too enthusiastic about finding them out herself.
Her hair had been somewhat tamed for the moment with it being soaked, the additional weight made it hang lower that she had to readjust the silk ties keeping it out of her way, she idly did so as she followed the Hylian into the room.

Richard turned his head "I don't really care who you work for..." He said but was cut off when a giant creature fell from above.
He cursed as rolled out of the way, narrowly avoiding being flattened by the massive creature.
Richard climbed to his feet as he got his first look at the creature. The thing was massive, atleast four times Richard's height. It stood on two legs, and had four massive claws protruding from it's head. Its body was covered in a black shell, except for it's single eye, which was staring directly at Richard.
The creature kicked Richard halfway across the room, whom landed next to a terrified Deku Scrub.
Kingie! Please! Quenie's death was not our fault, it was the boy in green The Scrub pleaded.
The creature made a strange hissing noise as it directed it's murderous gaze on the Scrub.
No! Please! The Scrub begged as it tried to scurry away, but it was too slow. The Creature picked up the Scrub with one of it's claws, and crushed the thing as if it were made of paper.
"What the hell kind of King is this!" Richard shouted as he pulled his sword from it's scabbard. "So you are King Gohma..." Richard readied his sword and King Gohma's gaze settled upon him once again.

Rosalinde sucked in a sharp intake of breath as she saw Richard nearly being crushed by a massive creature, spider-like in appearance yet very different.
"Spiders... I hate spiders..." Rosalinde said through gritted teeth, she flung a Deku Nut she'd absently procured from Richard and launched herself across the room feet first at the King.
The flash caught it offguard and stunned it, Rosalinde flew by and knocked it clean off its feet, sparks appeared as her scimitars merely bounced off its carapace hide, and she flipped away.
"Armoured spider, brilliant," Rosalinde said, twirling her scimitars a few times as she tried to figure out what to do whilst backing away.
