Lanayru found comfort in the presence of her stolen horse while waiting at the gate. The guard beside her seemed stoic and uninterested, but the mare responded with a nuzzle as Lanayru gently stroked her mane and whispered words of gratitude for carrying her to safety. Despite the uncertainty that lay ahead, the moment brought her a sense of calmness.

After a few minutes, the guard who had left to inform their superior returned with orders from the Captain. "He wants to speak with you, Miss," he said.

Lanayru followed the guard through the gate, feeling safe in the presence of the man who didn't seem hostile. Before leaving, she turned to the other guard and said, "Please take care of my horse. She's been through a lot, and I'm sure she's just as exhausted as I am."

The guard nodded in understanding as Lanayru was escorted to meet with Captain Orin. "Sir, this is the refugee from Lon Lon Ranch," the guard announced.

Lanayru introduced herself with a perfect courtesy that revealed her as Hylian nobility. "Thank you for seeing me, sir. My name is Lanayru. I was telling the guards about the attack, but I didn't mention the man that led them. He was called Ganon's executioner. Based on his size, I believe he's a Moblin who commanded the Stalfos. He has taken the owner's daughter prisoner."

Taking a deep breath to steady herself, Lanayru continued, "I cannot bear to witness the destruction of Hyrule any longer. I want to help save my home."

Lanayru was running on pure adrenaline as she fled from Lon Lon Ranch, the sound of the stolen horse's hooves pounding the ground echoing in her ears. Her heart was racing, and she could hardly hold on as she urged the animal to go faster. She couldn't shake the fear that Ganon's men were hot on her heels, but she refused to look back, knowing that any hesitation could mean the end for her.

Finally, when she was certain she was far enough away, Lanayru dismounted in a secluded spot, her body aching from the tense ride. She quickly fashioned her blanket into a makeshift saddle and took a few moments to catch her breath and rest her sore back. She knew she should have taken more time to recover, but the urgency of the situation pushed her forward. She mounted the horse again and continued towards Kakariko, determined to find refuge from the danger that loomed behind her.

As she approached the bridge near the old Castle Town's outer walls, Lanayru urged the horse to go faster, her eyes fixed on the narrow crossing ahead. The water below was raging, and the bridge was narrow, but she kept a steady hand and guided the horse safely across. Looking down at the water below, she couldn't help but think about the curse on Lake Hylia and wonder what could be causing it. The river flow wasn't blocked like she had thought. Was it related to Ganon's return, or was it something else entirely?

The sun was just beginning to rise, casting a warm glow over the landscape as she led the horse up the steps of the mountain. She could feel her spirits lift a little as she approached the village's gate, relieved to be in a place of safety again.

The sentries on duty seemed surprised to see her, but they quickly sprang into action, asking her about her presence and the urgency in her voice. Lanayru quickly explained the situation at Lon Lon Ranch, emphasizing the danger posed by Ganon's minions. "I rode all night to escape his executioner," she said, her voice unshaken despite the events.

As Lanayru investigated from the loft, it was clear that something was wrong. Her heart sank as she realized that Ganon's men had finally arrived at Lon Lon Ranch, putting the squeeze on the peaceful place that had given shelter when nobody else would. Inigo was quick to expel her from the ranch, and Malon seemed powerless to help this time. Her eyes widened as she took in the chaotic scene that was unfolding. The animals were frenzied, their panicked cries filling the barn as the malice from Ganon's men tainted Lon Lon Ranch. Lanayru's fear of the Stalfos intensified, but she knew she couldn't just stand idly by. She had to act fast to escape.

With a quick and quiet determination, she did as she was told and packed her belongings, not daring to take a a watchful eye away from the barn entrance. Ganon's minions were focused on their mission outside, but Lanayru knew it was only a matter of time before they would come looking for her or anyone else who lived on the ranch. She had to make her escape before they took over.

Lanayru tried to comfort a horse, stroking its mane as she thought of what to do next. With all the animals in such an uproar, this could be the only chance. With urgency, Lanayru unbarred the barn door and began letting the animals loose. She singled out a horse, one that she had managed to calm, and decided to use it to flee.

As she mounted the horse, she knew she would have to ride bareback. Before Grindan could make his decision, a stampede of horses and cows burst into the pasture from the barn door. Lanryu’s blue hair flew among the stampede, and in the confusion from the animals the blue maiden was able to slip away unnoticed. She made her way to the north-east wall, using the stolen horse to jump over it and escape the chaos of the ranch.

As she galloped away, Lanayru couldn't help but feel a pang of guilt. She had abandoned her friend Malon, leaving her to face Ganon's minions alone. But she knew that she had to do what was necessary to survive. "Sorry, Malon," she whispered to herself as Lon Lon Ranch disappeared into the distance.

As the sun began to set, Lanayru made her way to Lon Lon Ranch, hoping to find a place to rest for the night. Unfortunately, she was low on funds due to being on the run, and Ranch didn't even have an inn. She approached a field field, remembering that her charm and persuasiveness had helped her in tough spots before, but the field hand, Inigo, angrily informed her that there were no squatters allowed on the ranch.

"Please, I just need a place to rest for the night," Lanayru pleaded.

"I'm sorry, miss, but rules are rules. No freeloaders on the ranch." Inigo replied firmly. As he walked away, the Blue Maiden could hear him muttering something else under his breath. "Unless you own the place."

Feeling disheartened, Lanayru was relieved when a girl of a similar age came to her rescue. She intruded herself as Malon, and she was the owner's daughter. Malon kindly offered her a spot in one of the lofts for the night, even apologizing that she couldn't offer better accommodations.

"Thank you so much, Malon. This is more than enough," Lanayru said gratefully. "I really appreciate your kindness."

"No problem at all. I hate to see anyone in need," Malon replied with a smile. "Good night."

As she settled into the loft, Lanayru realized that the smell in the barn was pretty bad. But she had come prepared, having picked some wildflowers along the way to help with the smell. Situations like this were becoming more frequent. After making a bed out of fresh hay, Lanayru relaxed and took some time to herself.

As she settled in, Lanayru couldn't help but feel a sense of sadness and nostalgia wash over her. The straw pillow was a far cry from the luxurious bedding she was used to as a noble. But she didn't dwell on it for long, her thoughts quickly turning to the state of the world under Ganon's rule. Inigo may have been rude, but Malon and her Father seemed kind and fair. Not everyone is bad. This Ranch hadn't fallen under his influence.

As she yawned for the night, Lanayru wove a crown of blue nightshade flowers that she had collected, enjoying the calming act of creating before bed. Suddenly, a commotion outside caught her attention. She swung open the loft door to investigate, ready for whatever lay ahead.
