Subject: Hello.

[The Story Eater has been vanquished and most of the elements it summoned have disappeared. But caches of Malice that appeared during the event have stubbornly remained around Reverein. Link isn't much of a journal post person, but he decides to say something anyway.

First, an imprint of a picture appears, along with an arrow pointing directly at it and a big, bold X.]

Don't touch the purple stuff.

[... That's it, that's the post.]

["could use some salt?" What-- ... wait.]

Did
Did you eat it???

[abyssbound]

I tried, but it didn't taste very good. I've had worse though.

[ The best part is that Link has no way to know whether or not he's trolling. ]

[skyglider]

Ah... I can imagine...

[The one thing in all of Hyrule he never considered eating before!?!?!

... ... ... On that note--]

What did it taste like?

[abyssbound]

[ Well, if anyone in Hyrule could stomach it it'd be Link, wouldn't it? ]

The metallic taste you get in your mouth when you bite the inside of your cheek.

[skyglider]

So, unpleasant. Noted.

[I wish I could say that satisfies his curiosity, but.........]

[abyssbound]

It would probably eat through the wall of a weaker stomach.

[skyglider]

It has a nasty habit of corrupting creatures and creating monsters.
I'd hate to see what it'd do to a stomach.

[abyssbound]

Like I said, I've eaten worse, but I still can't say I recommend it. If your stomach isn't made of iron you probably shouldn't try.
