[Sheik watches her with a steady, unflinching gaze as she takes in her surroundings. He can't quite tell if she recognizes them or not, but her confusion does not seem to fade. Strange. Either she is quite the brilliant actress, or... she truly did not intend to find herself here.
The scales in his mind start to tip towards the latter as she clearly tries to hide something from him. What that something is, exactly, he hasn't the slightest idea, but it must be valuable, as she seems just as concerned about keeping it away from him as she does her self. Likely not a weapon in the traditional sense, else she'd be wielding it against him with that defiant look in her eyes, but that doesn't mean it isn't potentially dangerous.
... But those thoughts are set aside, deemed unimportant for now, as she speaks a name she should not know.]
Link?
[He parrots, his pulse thrumming hard in his ears. How does she know Link? Why does she know Link? He has half a mind to take her by the collar and demand answers from her - it's been so long and they are so close, his return can't be jeopardized now - but... no. Link is safe, where he is. Acting hastily will do him no more favors now than it did seven years ago.
Sheik stands in a slow, cautious movement, eye flicking between her hand and her face as he does. He needs to be able to react quickly, if this goes badly, because he's not going to give her the answer she wants.]
You will need to prove yourself devoid of ill intent before I can breathe a word about that, I'm afraid.
[Upon his chest, the Eye of Truth stares down at her, as unblinking as the one who wears it.]
