going from the hylink depictions in fandom and all the zelda games where link dedicates his life to saving and serving her to the skyward sword prequel manga is wild because you meet the first link, and he's just like. idgaf about hylia (the goddess). you gods are just as pathetic and powerless as we humans whom you supposedly reign above. why are you coming to me to fix your problems. why do we even keep you around. i don't want your stupid sword. the bird is cool, though.

and then he dies and hylia is so enamoured by him she gives up her divinity just to figure out what his damage was <3
we never find out what he was imprisoned for but i like to think it's blasphemy that got extended to treason (since hylia's ruling family
is directly attached to the goddesses) & they let him out being like 'sorry for the blasphemy and treason allegations. we know better now'
and he's like 'oh yeah no the blasphemy was 100% real. the treason not so much but i am very much blasphemous'
and then he walks off to save the day
skyward sword prequel manga

wkdhdks i love him very dearly. if i dont laugh i'll cry. i think if anyone deserves a ghibli adaptation it's him
his is the only loz story i've seen so far whose themes even remotely match up with ghibli's anyway imo
honestly agreed and he's so valid for that lol
poor guy is pulling double duty as the prophecy guy and the hero and he gets treated like this
only to likely later on learn that every bit of suffering he went through in jail because he had good intentions
with maybe a dash of blasphemy
was all PREORDAINED. Greek will of the gods if you will
Honestly if he wasn't already as done with the Divine Willâ„¢ before he definitely would be after meeting Hylia. He isn't doing this for her
he's doing this for his people even if most of them forsook him and that makes him such a fascinating character
Personal headcanon is that he accepted Hylia's help mostly for the bird deal and Fi. That's it
man treated her with zero reverence and all of the 'rare surviving hero from ancient myth' energy and Hylia was intrigued lol
totally not foreshadowing for something I'm writing *cough*
