Hi! I'm here to leave a quick review!!
Anyway let's get right to it,
This would normally be considered demeaning for her people. To be forced to hide in a humans shadow and only be of use when called. Yet, Midna couldn't find herself to mind. She'd rather hide in Link's shadow than one of a smelly fisherman or one of a shallow young woman whose only worry is what fabric her dress is or if the boy next door is interested in her.
OKay...well I will at first say that I'm not really familiar with this fandom, but I'll try and look at this story as a piece on its own. So...well, as far as an opening goes, this is interesting. I don't believe I have the full context to really understand what is going on, but the way you present it does manage to get my interest here.
Midna felt calm hiding in the darkness that lingered behind the hero. She'd lie on her back and take in her surroundings. This calm would last even when he was slashing at a foe or riding on his beloved mare Epona. However, she enjoyed her present state a bit more when they finally reached the desert. The sun was brutal and the temperature far too warm. The sun was directly overhead causing the shadow she hid inside to nearly be non-existent.
Hmm this is a decent bit here, showcasing the state this person happens to be in. Its not necessarily getting our attention the most here, but I think it does do a pretty solid job as far as conveying exactly what sort of situation this person happens to be in and I think that does a pretty solid job of keeping our interest here.
She slid directly beneath the human to hide from the blinding sunlight, placed her arms behind her head and looked upwards expecting to see a bright blue sky unmarred by twilight. Instead she found a completely different view, one that was far from a sky and more like one she really shouldn't be seeing. Midna smirked slightly, tilting her head to the side.
Perhaps she liked the view a little too much.
This is an interesting end there...I think its a nice sort of nod to this person kind of settling in for what seems like a pretty long haul and its a very powerful note to end on. I suspect this is probably even more powerful if one actually understands all the proper context behind it. At any rate, this was a pretty decent piece right here.
Aaaaand that's it for this one.
As always remember to take what you think was helpful and forget the rest.
Stay Safe
