Disclaimer: I do not own the Legend of Zelda series. If I did then I would make an open world Zelda where you explore the Twilight Realm and Lorule as well as Hyrule.

(Y/N)'s POV

Her grace lets out a heavy sigh and slumps back into her seat. The study soon goes back to silence as Princess Hilda stays slumped in her seat. Walking over to her, I gently rest a hand on her shoulder. A small smile is all that her majesty gives me in response before she starts to straighten up.

"Your grace?" Hilda still doesn't respond to me, but instead of going back to the paperwork, she gracefully stands up. Before I know it, her grace's arms are wrapped around my waist. "Princess?" Hilda delicately places a finger on my lips before staring at me with those piercing red eyes.

"Love, as much as I enjoy hearing you call me princess, I also like when you just refer to me by my name." Her highness smiles and likes at me strangely.

"Oh s-sorry Hilda. I was just used to what you said earlier." Hilda rolls her eyes after my comment.

"That's just for when we are in front of others. I must keep up an image in front of them, as much as I would like to just have you call me Hilda all the time." She rests her head on my shoulder while talking.

"Why don't you just have everyone call you Hilda then?" The princess gives me a strange look.

"Because I don't want my citizens calling me by my first name. As much as I care about them and will do anything to help my people, I do not want any of them getting out of line and thinking they can treat me however they want."

"Isn't that a little authoritarian?" She simply shrugs her shoulders.

"It may or may not be that, but after how long my people have gone with little to no authority and discipline, I and many other rulers, will have to be firm so as to remind the people that their kingdom is not weak." Well that makes since. Decades of anarchy and turmoil has done little to help the people's opinion of Lorule's government and the monarchy. I can't argue with her when I have seen what she means first hand.

"Well why are you fine with me referring to you by your name?" She scoffs at me.

"Oh I don't know. Why would I want the person who saved my kingdom from complete and utter destruction to call me by my name? Could it be that I believe that he as earned the right to call me that? Or could it be that I just want my love to call me by my name?" Well then.

"Well when you say it like that I feel mean." A chuckle comes from the purple haired princess.

"So then anymore questions, love, or can I finally get to convincing you to come with me and take a break?" So that was her intent.

"And what would we on our break?" Princess Hilda shrugs again.

"Maybe get some food and then relax with each other in my room after a nice bath."

"You want to do all that?" She nods. "If this is anything like Hyrule's customs, you aren't supposed to bathe with anyone else in the room other than your handmaids. You have that?"

"Yes we have the same custom."

"... Well alright then." She grins and grabs my hands and leads me to the castle kitchen.
