Saying Goodbye

"....How? ....How did it come to this? The Divine Beasts... the Guardians.... they've all turned against us. It was... Calamity Ganon. It turned them all against us!"

The Kingdom of Hyrule had been preparing for Ganon's return since Zelda was only months old. But a now grown-up Zelda stood, well sat, collapsed on the ground of a Neculdian field with the man she loved bleeding out in her arms. There had never been a Zelda who'd failed, a Link who allowed darkness to reign, but Hyrule had fallen dead. The fight had been lost.

At the scream of the scared sword, Zelda was alone. Scared, injured, pregnant... alone.

But she was the final descendant of Hylia. She had to fight on, even if alone.

The future of Hyrule's survivors depended on her, for Link couldn't return if there was no Hyrule to return to.
