Thinking about it, Zelda from Age of Calamity’s universe is this version of Zelda’s happiest timeline.
She awakened her powers in time for the Calamity and conquered it, everyone is alive and she is surrounded by the people who love and care for her.
At first, I thought that “She is only happy for a while. A hundred years later, Ganondorf will resurrect, and her children’s children are the ones who has to stop him” but actually, I don’t think that’s the case at all.
In Tears of the Kingdom, Ganondorf’s seal only weakened due to the castle’s rundown and neglected state. Zelda mentioned the castle’s state in the beginning of the game, as well as a tablet in the Royal Hidden Passage stating “The preservation of this castle is [therefore] tied to the prosperity of the kingdom.”
So… AOC Zelda has her happy ending. The only downside is that there will be another Calamity Ganon - but that is in another 10,000 years more in the future.
….
So while drawing this, I thought of a fanfic story where Link dreams about AOC Zelda after experiencing the Dragon Tears in TOTK.
“In a dream of mine, what felt like another universe, you’re happy.”
“This life what you wanted?” “What?” “The fighting. The mercenary work-” “No.” “No?” “No.” “Shame, kid. It suits you.”
I’ve got a lot of Halthwyn art I can’t publicly post since my party members follow me on socials, but I think tumblr is safe. So enjoy a sneaky art drop, because I’m obsessed with the image and this woman and ya’ll gotta deal with it.
Btw when someone says “don’t talk to me like that, I don’t know you” the normal thing to do is apologize for the perceived overfamiliarity and correct the behavior. Just in case anyone was wondering
Insane to me that this is actually controversial. I’m silencing notes on this one bc I don’t want to see them anymore
