What’s the life expectancy of a little pointy-eared, leotarded person, anyway? Hasn’t he been doing this since he was like seven? All the hours upon hours and years upon years of beating up a giant green pigman goblin have surely taken their toll on him. I mean, the guy can’t even speak for pete’s sake! He’s probably petrified to utter one syllable for fear of setting off another time-traveling, forest wandering, temple dwelling quest that will eat up another good chunk of his life. He may only be 18-years old or so by now, but there are hardened war veterans who haven’t seen half the action the this kid has. And they didn’t have to do it pointy-toed shoes.
While you’re busy indulging your Nintenddiction with Skyward Sword, as I’m sure you’re doing right now, just be mindful of the early grave you’re putting Link in. I hope it’s worth it.
