The Hero's Grief

Description

I've been on the 'PREPARE FOR THE FEELS' train recently.
This is based on the Prequel to Skyward Sword, the comic in the back of Hyrule Historia.

The Hylian text:
"My sweet Hero... Though Hylia is lost, you will find it again."

My headcanon for this point in time:
After the fall of the Land of Hylia, since Link had died and was unable to live with his friends on their new land of Skyloft, I imagine that since the Goddess had given up her divine powers and became a human, she led the fallen Hero through to the afterlife, where his spirit would go to the next hero. But I can see that Link could still see the fallen Hylia before him, all the land charred and gross, hundreds of his companions fallen... And before he can even think of moving on, he demands to go back with tears in his eyes, before he breaks down crying. The former Goddess Hylia has to explain that the life that he knew, the home that he had, is lost forever, and he must move on to the future to recover his former home, and build a new one.

Aah I love the headcanons that I come up with I'm sorry I really do. UuU

Characters and design go to Shigeru Miyamoto and Akira Himekawa; I drew this lovely piece and came up with the headcanon on my own.

Beautiful! :)
My only complaint is that the Hylian is a little hard to read... oh well.
