Struggling with destiny
[There’s a newcomer wandering around the Nexus, a girl no older than 16, examining the different sights and sounds. She’s hiding how nervous she is to be in a new place, but the wonders of the multiverse easily create excitement. From taking pictures of Pokemon, people, flowers and buildings, Zelda is pointing the Sheikah Slate at anything of interest. Which is practically everything.]
[She’s watched the video greeting, along with reading some of the helpful pamphlets that get left behind on coffee tables and chairs. After getting her initial exploration out of the way, she stands quite patiently in the square, clutching the Sheikah Slate tightly with one hand, while the other pushes back stands of blond hair behind her pointy ears.]
It seems as if I am to ask a question, given the traditions and rules of this place. To be fair, conversing with random strangers has never been my strong suit…
[She takes a deep breath before continuing.]
Many people here seem to have different abilities and skills. If you would tell me...how did you discover your own talents? I seem to be struggling lately with my training, so any advice is greatly appreciated.

I see...It all comes back to training, no matter how you look at it. But what if...
[The distress is very clear on her face now, looking away from Thor to stare at her gloved hands.]
Can I confide my problem to you? It relates to the questions I've been asking, but I've been avoiding the real problem.

And sure, he's no teacher, but he can be a listening ear at least. Maybe there's some small scrap of wisdom he can pass along, once he understands her reasons.
