II. The Forest

What was even that noise?!

Hunk's just merrily making his way through the forest with his grocery list of potion ingredients which, for someone who is usually great at finding herbs and spices? He's having a lot of trouble getting. He's a little wary of the angry animals, too.

But then he hears that indignant animal shriek and looks up! Just in time to see a creature falling towards his face.

Hunk is a big dude but it turns out a frightened big dude can climb a tree pretty quick. So from Zelda's vantage point she probably sees this idiot see a falling monkey, panic, go up a tree that's actually much smaller up top than he predicted, and soon it's bending backwards with Hunk koala clinging around the trunk, threatening to fall to the ground if he lets go. Worse? Now the trunks is creaking.

"Okay," he says sadly to himself more than to Zelda in particular. "I think I've made a terrible choice."

The monkey previously harassing Zelda thinks it's pretty funny.
