As Link arrived at the small Ranch, already a small group of travelers appeared to be gathering and stepping inside. Workers of the Stable, wearing their
cloth uniforms, were taking the horses inside, as the sun started to set.
Of course, small signs of the modern day still stood out from the rustic and old-timey place; A special area was reserved for a energy pump to charge up any car that needed help. Now these were machines similar to what
we would call a simple Gas Pump, but it looks showed a series of glowing markings, usually signs of the modern consume-friendly magitech of the Hyrule of today, as well as a see through window, showing the glowy blue energy fuel inside that tended to charge the vehicles. Even at the stables seemed to have a small space where two vehicles seemed to be parked. Even in such a secluded place, signs of technology could be see in this modern era.
Across the air, a delightful
tune could be heard not so far from there. It seemed to come from a small hill a couple of feet behind the ranch, but its mesmerising music managed to reach the pitstop's surroundings just fine. Such joyful notes put both Link and the steed at ease.
However, a concern soon sprouted, once Link too a good look at a sign placed at the entrance, just past the wooden fence that surrounded the building, right next to the dirty road where horses, and the usual car, tended to pass. It showed the price for keeping the Horse for the night, as well as how much renting a room, as well as eating, cost. Doing some calculations, our heroes was put on the spot when, thanks to that lupine pickpocketer, he didn't have enough to both reserve a spot at the stable AND rent a room for himself! His funds appeared to be low.
Until he had to choose, Link simply tied to horse to a nearby pole. The still not-quite tamed animal tugged a bit, upset, but soon cooled down and simply stood there, watching its surroundings.
The entrance to the building was wide open, letting him see inside a variety of people both working and relaxing. Sitting near a table was a beautiful Gerudo woman taking a drink at her glass wearing a green top with gold markings and a baggy white pants; traditional getup from the far-away desert. She was tall and with a muscled physique as plenty of her race with her fiery red hair made up in a bun on top of her head with a nice golden pin keeping it steady.
Not so far from her was a cute
young Hylian woman of brown tied up hair and green eyes. She appeared to be wearing some traveler's clothing, good for mobility across the field and had a sheathed iron sword in a leather scabbard and a wooden shield on her back. An adventurer-type, by the looks of it.
Then there were some of the ranch's workers, uniforms and all, attending in thigns like cleaning while another
pretty Hylian girl attending the clients as she carried a tray with drinks. She appeared to work in here.
In the end, Link had to be wise and pick a choice, as he doubted he could cross much territory after such a trek. Maybe someone in the general area could help him...
-
Perhaps, Link could ask that ranch worker if she needed help at the inn attending the clients. Maybe if he worked, he could get enough Rupees to rent a room for him.
-
Maybe, he could ask one of the stable workers to let him sleep at the stable with the horse. Saving Rupees in the process!
-
Or maybe, that green-clad traveler could lend him a hand! She seems like a kind person...
-
He could also ask that Gerudo dame for help. As her kind always seemed to trek through long distances, she may know something that can help him.
-
Or how about that Music? Whoever is playing it must also have a room or at least some Rupees to spare! Link could go and find the source of such lovely tune.
-
And, of course, there was always the option of just untying the wild horse and just let it free as it wasn't that well-tamed other than offered some food and he could save having to spend Rupees on it as it returns to the wild.
((Time for another Choose Your Own Adventure bit. Depending on what option Link picks, he may encounter a different girl or event, so up to you. All options will make something happen and Link get an event with someone, so it's all up to you...))
