Kindness (TP Short Story: Possible Spoilers if you haven't played the game) She had been walking for days, lost and alone, with no memory to guide her. All she has with her was her own life, and a small wooden statue, whose importance she did not know but she held onto it anyways. Through the eternally falling twilight, she roamed the fields, avoiding the dark beasts that patrolled (cont.)

  • both land and sky. Her only hope lay in the castle she spied from afar, and to which she was slowly making her way. As she neared her destination, a pale form on the road caught her eye. Though it was motionless, she did not let go of caution. She kept her eyes on it, but the thing did not move, even as she neared. And now that she was close (cont.)

  • didn't it look like a person…? Her head whispered caution, but her kind heart would not heed it. She went near, and found that she was right. Pale and weary, she had found a young boy, but unlike any boy she knew. He was the size and shape of a young lad, but his features were fish-like. Instead of hair, a fin adorned the back of his head.

  • His skin was thin, but covered in a sprinkling of scales. His feet were closer in shape to flippers than her human feet (which were aching at that point, not that she noticed, too worried about the boy).

I deeply admire Ilia for being one of the most compassionate characters in LoZ.

  • Her saving Prince Ralis while suffering amnesia is no small feat. She's a clearly a deeply caring person. I wish the game had expanded on this and other characters' stories, but it does give me material to write.

  • Very nice it's amazing how you can take lore and turn into something so much massive. I used to do the same with comics.

  • This is beautiful! I'd always wondered what exactly it was like for Ilia to come across Ralis on her journey to Castle Town.

  • @alex Thanks! It's fun to turn all the unseen moments of the game into a creative work. It's neat that you used to do the same! @Anju Thanks for reading Anju! It's one of the best backstories in the game. It's a shame that most people don't bring it up…

  • You're welcome! Yeah, it sadly doesn't ever seem to be expanded on or even mentioned, but you captured it fantastically!
