Ylisstol had become the home away from home, which wasn't a bad thing...it was progressing nicely into a place that satisfied Medusa's ego, and Ganondorf's comfort. Ike's loss was somewhat tragic, simply because there were not many people who were as experienced as he was. But his turning tail had galvanized much of the military, Ganessa...she was learning, with the disturbing little Link-look alike. The lessons with her had improved her demeanor, especially. But there were others who had risen up now that Ike was no long around. Some were his children in the early days, while still very much a mortal man...Ganondorf had many talents. It was easy to make a population of tainted Hylians and others when he was the closest thing to a god one could become.
Thankfully (or perhaps, unfortunately) Yong was a loyal, and dutiful little attender to Medusa's every need. He had his own amusements, however...
"My Lord," General Ezka murmured as he arrived in Ganondorf's study. "Forgive me for intruding...but I think we have found something that would interest you." Ezka was one of his first sons, he had little time with him...but Ganondorf had learned a long time ago that loyalty can be inspired in many ways, one of which was not always fear. Otherwise, he and Medusa wouldn't have had such a successful establishment of their borders and villages. But he could see it in the young man's eyes, at times...he wanted to please his father.
"...Oh?" Ganondorf said with a grin. "Something that would interest me?"
"Yes," He smiled faintly. "If you have a moment?"
"Of course," he chuckled, rising up. Aside from Ganessa, Ezka was showing exceptional promise...perhaps he'd watch and see what the boy had...
