The Hylian Bestiary; Thursday, Third Period [04/06].
"Apologies for my absence last week!" Sidon proclaimed, quite cheerily from the front of the classroom, as one would be wont to expect. "There was a bit of trouble in Hateno Bay this last week that called for the assistance of none other than the Prince Who Felled the Giant Octorok, who is, of course, none other than yours truly! Thankfully, this large beast was not nearly so giant as the one I fought in such grand, legendary battle....although, I suppose, that might just be a matter of perspective, because I myself was quite a bit smaller then, if you can believe it! But the whole incident has certainly inspired the topic for this week's class and, furthermore, I shall make it up to you with the second half of class with a little trip to the Danger Shop, but first...!"
He paused, dramatically.
"Let's talk Octoroks!"
And so he did, delving into the details of the octopus-like creatures found all throughout Hyrule in their various forms: forest, rock, snow, sky, and especially the water! There were also the treasure octoroks, which added an additional element of intrigue to these quick and quirky beasts! He went into a little bit of a discussion on ways to help find Octoroks when they were in hiding in thebreath of the wild, their various attacks and movement patterns, and even ways to fight them, which, he promised, would come in handy very soon! In case anyone had any doubts as to why they were going down to the Danger Shop for the second end of class.
A little bit about their diet specifications...or rather, their lack thereof, which made for some unique opportunities to have them ingest harmful things like rocks or bombs or, and now Sidon was really grinning, princes! And that meant regailing the students of the tale when he defeated the giant octorok by allowing it to eat him, and then piercing its belly from the inside, not only facilitating his escape, but sealing the monster's fate and saving the village all in one mighty poke!
It was a good thing he did have other plans for the rest of the class, or the students would have gotten the much longer version of the story; it was, after all, one of his personal favorites to tell!
