My thoughts keep drifting, as I sit in my room with my grief. It was our fault, we knew it. We shouldn't have, but we did. And we paid for it, with his life. I loathe myself for not saving him, for being a weak hylain. For not saving the one I loved, for letting him die at the cruel hands of fate.
I look around my room, so lavishly decorated to the bone of the walls. Blue and pink decorations that show off a happy, cheerfull mood. I hate it, I hate my room. I hate everything. Oh gods I hate it! From the pink walls to my blue bed, to my beautifull balconey, and all the way back to my mirror. I hate it all!
I hate fate, destiny, life, my people, I hate them! I hate my life, but most of all, I hate him and myself. Him, for taking me, for putting his life on the line; and loosing it. And myself for letting him. Damn it! Damn life, damn destiny, damn fate, damn the goddessess, and damn Hyrule!
Thick tears fall from my eyes as I look into my mirror. The face that looks back at me isn't mine, it is a face of a beautifull twenty year old queen. Not a broken mother like myself. The girls face was smooth ivory skin and fair red lips. Her hair was golden blonde and shiny. Her face held no aging lines, but contained pain beyond telling.
I looked outside. Night had nearly fallen. I lay on my bed with my grief, and closed my eyes and drifted off into an uneasy sleep.

Link stood bravely, alone. The lizardflos that approached castle town at fullspeed. He wore warriors clothes, not his usaull garb.
-
"Go help him!" Zelda shrieked, as her lover fought the lizardfos all his own.
"But milady!" The gaurd said nervously. "We're working on it, there's--" WHAM! The queen had pulled back her fist and punched the captain as hard she could.
-
Zelda grabbed her son and a few articles of clothing, and ran for the back door, her heart pounding. Zelda burst out of the castle at full speed, and saw her husband; admist many wounds; still fighting.
And then, a single sword went through his chest...and the Hero of Time fell. No fairies, no potions, and all alone. Protecting the people he'd sworn to protect. And they had sworn to defend him. O where was Hyrules defense now? A bunch of cowards who'd betrayed thier king and country. As their kinsmans blood was spilt apon the ground and all they could do was cower for thier life. They didn't fight to defend it.
And most of all, they'd sworn to come when needed. O how they;d betrayed thier oath! When they hadn't camr to the aid of the young king. Whilst most of the army was elder and unmarried, and the king was young and newly married; it was the king who died, not the cowardly gaurds.
Zelda felt hot tears splatter her sons face and tried to pull herself together. The young queen dropped dead tired at Ordana's spring.
-
I felt a hot breath at my throat, and the drawing of a sword. My time is near, and these conquering beasts that had taken my husband and home will now take me. But my son, the only hope for Hyrule, is saftly in Uli's care.
I feel the cool steel go through my stomach, and the relentless pain of death.
Link, honey, I'm coming.
