Some base colors on my previous sketch for Zelda from Breath of The Wild! She’s a bit like a Mona Lisa— is she smiling, or frowning? 
Based on this model image. There’s so much lovely detail in this dress that I didn’t include but maybe someday I’ll go back and add it along with a background and some more layered coloring.

The floor was wet with red.
Rhoam could recall running, his scabbard in hand—but where was he, what had happened—Zelda was in danger—those whisper mongrels had decided that it was better to await a new reincarnation of the Goddess than to rely on a failed heir.
And all at once he was at her room, and there, sprawled before the desk she so often hunched over, his daughter lay in a puddle of blood. He cried her name. Cradled her to him. Nearly a woman grown, and she was still so small in his arms.
Then he awoke in a cold sweat alone in his kingly bed, a heavy pain in his chest so great that he found himself clenching it. His heart was weakening—no—it was breaking, splitting in grief. His daughter, Zelda, was—
There was a single disorienting moment as the realm of dreams and that of reality merged and separated once more.
A dream. Only a dream. Nothing more—Gods above—
Rhoam lay in his bed feeling for all the world like a frail old man, his pained heart beating rapidly beneath his palm.
Go back to sleep, said the King.
And so it was Rhoam the Father rather than the King who arose, a robe hastily tossed on as he hurried down the hall. The guards stood at attention to his approach and, upon his demand, confirmed that the Princess had not left her room. Rhoam brushed past them, and in the moonlight, he saw Zelda seemingly asleep in her bed.
He approached her quietly and, as he had once done so many moons ago, laid a massive hand upon her back and waited for the movement of breath. The seconds stretched—was that movement? It was so small—until, at last, she took a deep breath in her sleep and Rhoam’s clenched chest could at last relax.
He stood there for some time, his hand remaining in her back. You’ll spoil the child, the midwife once warned him. Let her be.
But Zelda had always slept better with the weight of his hand upon her back, and he had spent many a night waiting for the long, quiet sigh that would tell him she had fallen into a deep slumber.
You’ll spoil the child.
Let her be.
Rhoam the King did not wait for the tell tale sigh before he removed his hand and quietly slipped out from his daughter’s chambers. He returned to sleep with only one thought in mind—
Tomorrow, I will send her to another spring.

what does love feel like to you?
Tumblr media
drowning
maybe you've spread yourself too thin. maybe you've got so much love in your heart that it's choking you. whatever the reason, you cannot continue this; this give and give and give, the push and pull of everyone else's needs. you can barely keep your head above the water. your limbs can only support you so long. something will give. you know it will be you
And
Tumblr media
a memory
do you know what love is? you think you did, once upon a time. maybe you never did. you hold onto what you think love is; how you felt when you thought you had it. it's fleeting, and maybe you'll never feel that way again. but wasn't it great? how long will you stay here, lost in this world of fantasy and memory? when will you move on?

Every single variation of Zelda is gorgeous because Hylia is Vain and honestly, I’m not mad about it.

A while back I tried my own design for Link and Zelda. I liked the two I did of Princess Zelda but his hero outfit was kinda of cobbled together. I tried to keep it simple but believable for a game and unique to him. I also wanted to have a pre-hero look for him so I decided blacksmith since it’s a profession some of the other Links’ were in apprenticeships for.

Linktober 2023 - Day 10. "Zelda"
Tumblr media
You're still seeing your past in every reflection. How can you hope to move on ?
Twitter post | Zelda thinks she's handling things quite well following her return to her home and to normalcy. She's finally home and she's a Hylian again. Why wouldn't everything be fine? It's just that... she's picked up a habit of avoiding mirrors -- reflections as a whole, honestly. If she does look, it isn't for long. She tells herself that it will pass.

Hi there, a wild CC has appeared thanks to a Baby V wake up. Just a note to all blogs that this blog supports creating and reimagining characters in the writers image, including giving characters darker skin, different hair, varying backstories, etc. If this is something that you have an issue with, this is not the blog for you—though I do recommend you take time to reflect on why you feel so hateful and where this hate might have stemmed from so that maybe you can see beyond yourself and grow as a person.
Or just find your own version of a Hylia and ask that they help heal your broken little soul. Best of luck! ❤️

AHEM—- @cryptidsncurios
Calista (what Zelda typically will name her daughter, after her mother) calls the following people:
Grandma Fang
Aunty Oli
Uncle Xig
Aunty Honey
Uncle Kohga
Tumblr media
People Zelda’s child absolutely loves—
Fang @yunhuntress
Olivia @pertrahe
Xigbar @cryptidsncurios
Honey @mielmoto
Khoga @mightiestbanana
This little toddler will, without hesitation, toddle to them as quickly as her tiny feet will carry and demand immediate uppies. And in their lap she will remain until they leave. The birthday parties are a hoot.

I’ve been seeing so many new LOZ blogs popping up, like daisy’s for the spring, and it brings me such joy!!
I’ll be quiet on here for a bit while I work on getting my multi-loz blog finished, because I really want to start some proper threads there.
In the meantime, hello and welcome and I am so excited to create some fantastical adventures together. 💖
May Hylia Smile Upon You.
