The light to my darkness...
I laugh bitterly. How cliche. Like I haven't heard that one before.
And yet it couldn't be more true.
Confined in my own castle..a prisoner where I should be Queen.
Nothing around me but my own shattered will.
Ganondorf keeps me alive. Sometimes I wonder if it's for his own sick pleasure to watch me burn.
Maybe he's challenging me. Wanting to see how far I can go before I snap.
Nothing is in this room. Maybe a bed to rest on. No mirror, no closets, no fancy carpets.
Perhaps that's best. I can't bear to see myself in this state.
I feel nothing as I look at these walls. They're pitch black. The floors are black. No color in this place.
Black like my soul.
Too numb to think, too numb to feel.
And I wonder why I stay.
What am I waiting for? For some age-old fairy tale Hero to come rescue me?
I gave up on that pathetic dream.
Nothing. I am nothing. In this kind of world, I'm not even a Queen.
My father would be so ashamed. This beautiful kingdom of Hyrule he worked so hard to build.
Only to watch it crumble through my fingers when I dropped that sword.
I've let everyone down. If this world comes back to normal, would they even want me as their Queen?
A ruler in name only...
I wonder why I haven't ended this game yet. Why I haven't ended my life.
What was left? Each time I turn and look out my window, I see all that was left behind.
Perpetual Twilight.
Watching the kingdom I once loved and ruled crumble to the darkness.
Watching my shame float in eternal oblivion.
Life? Or Death?
A question he once asked me. As I watched my soldiers fall one by one. I dared not show emotion, I couldn't fall, I couldn't crumble, I couldn't let them die in vain.
The sword dropped to the floor. The sound was deafening. All I could hear was my own heartbeat. But I could feel nothing.
The darkness took me. I embraced it.
For my people...I gave my life.
It's what any ruler would have done, right?
Right?
But..I cannot do this anymore.
Each day is a living hell.
I wish I had died. Anything is better than eternal oblivion.
And so I close my eyes. Closed, open, either way, I still see darkness.
There is no light, there is no hope.
There is no Hero.
There is no Hero...
