[As the truth sinks in, Link is warming up more and more to the idea of him talking to a sword. He's now grinning at Horikawa like the curious little boy he tries to pretend not to be.]

Six hundred! That's crazy!! So you went for six hundred years without ever, like, talking and eating and stuff?

[Pausing, he looks back at his Gilded Sword again. Zubora and Gabora reforged it to add the gold and extend the blade, but before then, how old was it? More than a hundred? It's definitely possible. Link doesn't question or think about where his stuff came from, he just uses it.]

Um, can you talk to other swords?
