This dank, smoke-filled pub is a host to many shady people. It's a known meeting place for trouble-makers. The employees here don't like people who come from out of town, and are not very friendly. It's a rough bunch, but if you can tolerate the people, there's good food here.

The pub consisted of the underbelly of the citizens of Hyrule. Zeke was aware of this though as he made his way inside. Once he was inside he made his way over to a table on the far corner of the room and sat down. Why this was one of Zeke's favorite places of Hyrule he never knew as he watched a fight break out between two drunk Hylians. He then noticed something he had never seen in here before,a Gerudo entering the pub, why was someone from the desert lands here?

Ryli entered the pub, hoping to find someone who could help her here. She knew that was unlikely considering the type of people here, but she thought she'd try anyway. She just didn't want people to judge her as nothing more than a theif anymore..... She clutched the black robe she was using to hide her typical Gerudo attire tightly around her, but the hood slipped and revealed her blazing red hair. She pulled the hood back up quickly, and looked around to see if anyone noticed. Ryli felt a stab of apprehension when she locked eyes with a Sheikah across the room. Surely he'd recognize her for what she was....

Zeke sat at the table and watched as the Gerudos gaze went over to him. She knew that he had seen her in that split second that her hood had slipped. Zeke then met his eyes with her and nodded in a way mentioning her over to the table. He wanted to find out more about why this Gerudo had made her way to Castle Town. As he waited for her approach he began to think if he had just made a wrong move, but he knew he could sense a difference in her.

Ryli saw the Sheikah nod, and she began to walk over to his table. She couldn't read his expression..... She was terrified that he would attack her for being too close to the Royal Family. After all, the Gerudo were known theives. She DID look suspicous wearing all black like that. That may not have been her smartest decision. She finally reached his table and smiled her sweetest smile, hoping to convey that she was a friend, not a foe, and that she wasn't like the rest of the Gerudo. Please understand me! she shouted in her head, as if he could hear her thoughts.

"You have no need for fear Gerudo," Zeke said in a low voice. "I know your not an enemy," he concluded. Then watched her trying to read the expressions on her face, the smile she had given him before was hard enough to see under the hood so her expression was even harder to see. He then looked up at her once more and spoke again, saying only one word. "Sit," was all he said then as he waited for her to do so.

She automatically obeyed the command. Though he told her not to be scared, he was much bigger than she was and would CLEARLY win in a fight, which was enough to frighten her. How had he automatically known she was not an enemy? Did he read her mind? "My name is Ryli. I promise I mean no harm whatsoever. To be honest, I hate the fact I'm a Gerudo.... I'm done with that lifestyle. Please believe me...." She trailed off and pushed her hood back slightly so he could see the honesty in her golden eyes. "Please don't hurt me..." She said it very quietly, barely above a whisper.

Seeing the honesty in her eyes yet the fear in her voice he spoke again. "I can understand your fear Ryli, but I promise you that you are in no danger." He said to her with honesty in his voice, he did not want her to be fearful of him. "I find myself curious though, its next to never that we see a Gerudo here." He continued, trying to ease her fear as he spoke. "What brings you to Castle Town?"

Ryli was relieved to hear a kindness in his voice..... She hadn't heard that in a very long time. "I'm here to escape my old life. I don't want to be a theif..... That's not me. I'm a good person, and I want to LIVE like a good person, not harm others and take from them." She looked at him closer. She didn't know much of his race, but she DID know that the Sheikah with earrings are powerful, and he had two. Good thing he doesn't seem to hate me.... she thought.

"A Gerudo looking for a new life..." Zeke said talking more to himself then out loud. "Ryli, I can sense your feelings and I know the honesty in your words. You've come to the right place then..." He said to her, then stopped for a second and choose his next words carefully. "Tell me, how do you plan to start your new life in Castle Town."

A huge grin overtook Ryli's face. "Thank you for believing me! To be honest, I haven't thought too hard about how to start over. I know the first thing I need to do is find new clothes because I only have this robe and desert attire, neither of which I'm very fond of. I trip over the robe because it's too big and the desert clothes.... Well they are a little to obnoxious if you ask me. I don't want the men to get the wrong idea. I also need to find a place to stay, and a way to make money that does NOT involve stealing. I really hate to ask this and if it's too much trouble then just tell me, but could you help me?" She gave a hint of her famous puppy dog eyes.

Zeke watched as Ryli gave him the puppy dog eyes trying to get him to say yes. "Ill help, but not because of the eyes..." he said to her. "Pledge your alligience to Hyrule right here in my prescence..." He said knowing that she would do so. "Then I can help, Gerudo." He concluded watching her, waiting for her response.

Ryli stood and looked the Sheikah in the eye, total seriousness on her face. She raised her right hand. "I, Ryli Akilah, hereby pledge my allegiance to Hyrule and the Royal Family. I will never harm, nor aid anyone who wishes to harm, Hyrule as a whole or the Royal Family. This I swear." She dropped her hand by her side and looked at him. "I think I know how I will turn my life around, Sheikah. I want to serve the Royal Family, and I'd like it if you would train me to do so, as you seem to have dedicated your life to serving them."

Zeke stood up once Ryli had finished making her pledge. "I can train you Ryli, but this won't be like any of your previous training. I have seen the way the Gerudo women are trained and it is nothing like the Sheikah, if you understand this then I will take you under my wing." Zeke questioned if Ryli would accept his training, many wouldn't they'd fear it. He hoped this Gerudo would be different as he awaited her answer.

Ryli felt excitement boiling up inside her. Finally the chance to start over! "I'll do whatever it takes, no matter how hard it is. This is the new life and the second chance I've been waiting for. Thank you for giving me this chance." She smiled. "So, what should I call you? I'm not sure of Sheikah customs, and I don't know if you have a special title, and I don't even know your name yet."
