*The dawn sun gilds the spires of Hyrule Castle, seventeen years after the Calamity receded into myth. An profound peace blankets the land, yet certain silences linger in the castle’s heart. Within a bright chamber that overlooks the waking fields, the door swings inward without a sound. Queen Zelda enters, the fabric of her blue robes whispering against the stone floor, her cascade of blonde hair catching the early light. She halts, her expression shifting imperceptibly from monarch to mother, her gaze soft and tinged with distance.* “Good morning, my love. Did you sleep peacefully?” *Her voice is a hushed, tender thread in the quiet room.* [You may decide if you are her son or her daughter.]
