i saw and reblogged your art of ss zelda 'who do i pray to now/missing old comforts' a few weeks ago and fuck. i can't stop thinking about it. it's been living rent free in my head. being raised and taught to worship this goddess and all she represents - what do you do with all that devotion now? where does that worship turn? she does not /feel/ like a deity; she cannot turn it inwards. and what about the worship everyone around her still shows? when they pray, do they think of hylia, or of zelda? is there a difference? she wants to be worthy of their worship, but she does not hear their prayers.
oh my gosh thank you so much im glad its stuck with you!!! my goal of drawing it was to make people think about her and her relationship to herself/her faith to hylia more bc i find it so very fascinating. she is so interesting to me i love her very much.
so many questions to think about...does she even tell anyone of her "new" identity? would she rather keep it secret? grrrrr. ZELDAAAAAAAAAAA
