Unnamed Heroes
💚❤️ Minish Cap and Four Swords Prologue Headcanons 💙💜
There are other heroes mentioned in the prologues of Minish Cap in Four Swords who remain unmentioned outside of these stories. I got to thinking about it and decided it would be fun to expand on them! So here they are, the Hero of Men and the First Hero of the Four Sword.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The First Hero of the Four Sword is shrouded in mystery, which I decided I actually really like and wanted to maintain somewhat. All that is known is that when Vaati began causing trouble after being reborn in a monstrous form, he appeared from the woods and simply said he would defeat Vaati. Then, he split into four with the blade he somehow already was in possession of and sealed Vaati inside of it. Then, he disappeared. None of the people who he rescued had any idea how he did what he had, and many believed it didn't happen at all! I headcanon that he was born in the woods and lived there alone for most of his life. He never minded it, and he surely didn't want that peace disturbed. However, when his childhood friend Zelda- who met him when she snuck out of the palace when they were younger- became one of the people taken to Vaati's new palace, Link set out with the Four Sword Zelda had told him was hidden away (likely in the Castle) prior with only the goal of rescuing her in mind. He never took much recognition or credit, preferring to stay distant from things as before.
The Hero of Men, the first holder of the Picori Blade, is given slightly more depth than the first Hero of the Four Sword in the way that he is actually given a design. It is implied he is a knight of Hyrule, as he is seen among them in the stained glass depicting the rise of monsters. We also know he knew Zelda in some way, as he gave the Light Force to the princess of his time. I like to headcanon that he met her during the worst of the Era of Chaos, and in his quest to help her restore Hyrule was given the Picori Blade and Light Force by the otherworldly visitors. Like the Hero of the Minish, I imagine he's pretty short.

In the Four Sword timeline, the goddess sword that Fi was meant to protect over becomes the Picori Blade.
Mighty (the hero of men) grants the sword spirit her freedom when he is gifted the blade and uses it to defeat the Remnants of Demise alongside the leader Valorie. Mighty doesn’t know much about Valorie outside of her combat skill and that her ancestor was a reincarnation of Hylia. Fi, however, seems to resonate with Valorie and pledges herself to the leader with her newfound freedom. (This is likely because of the remnants of the triforce lying dormant within the young Hylian descendant, aka the light force that grants Valorie her combat power, courage in battle, and strategical wisdom).
Meanwhile the Picori Blade, without its sword spirit to embody and take care of it, diminishes slightly in strength over time. This is unbeknownst to the Minish that gift it to Mighty nor the hero who uses it to bind the Remnants to the Bound Chest. Thus when Mini (hero of the Minish) has to reforge the blade into the Four Sword next, he has to drawn upon the sacred light of the four Elementals. This grants him the power of four and the ability to create three fragile, temporary clones of himself. But it doesn’t last forever…
Without a sword spirit to regulate its power, the Four Sword must rely on the nearest source of strength it can find. So by the time Four (hero of the four sword) draws the blade, it relies on their Hero’s Spirit to fuel its power. As a result, it splits Four’s soul into pieces, an attempt to maintain the light clone ability. Each split Link is represented by a different aspect of Four’s person and this is how Red, Green, Blue, and Vio Link come about (he’s not the best at coming up with names). It absolutely fractures Four’s being. As much as he tries to piece himself together and avoid splitting, his patchwork soul can never be fully mended and restored. It gives him splitting (ha) headaches and pain that he desperately hides to resemble some sense of normalcy again.
Four is having the absolute worst time adjusting to his new life but he’s taking it in stride for now.

Something about Four fics set in his Hyrule!
The Minish Cap world being small and detailed enough to be intimately understood. The characters all having their own figurines with fun descriptions and secrets. Four's comfort and seamless integration and understanding of Hyrule Town and the people. The bakery. A library which he frequents. The school he went to. He and Dot being childhood friends. How close he is to her in both friendship and physical proximity like the castle is Right There it's so easy for them to visit and for Dot to be included in fic. The Picori Festival. The whimsy of the Minish and their presence and magic being something Four often and happily interacts with. The little traditions that make his world his. Having a home to return to that he finds comfort in. His Grandfather being there for him. His job at the forge. All of the people he has in his life who offer him genuine guidance and support. Something about FSA and The Minish Cap drawing so faithfully from the games before that there is an item or person or oddly specific scenario that uniquely ties Four to many of the other heros- the palace of the four sword, the origins of the picori blade, the dark mirror, the dark world, FSA drawing from the style of WW and alttp (and the headcanons that result from this like the shield that's Wind's family heirloom being Four's originally).
Something about stories set in his world are so comforting. I love fics where Four is the last to join the chain, signaling the true start of their adventure together, and fics where Four sets in motion what, or is, the first to bring them together again after the adventure is over. Fics that explore Minish Cap and FSA's worlds and how Four is connected to it, and how it connects him to the others. It's just a Minish Cap appreciation kind of day tbh.
Here's some fic recs!

Coming back to tell you how much I love that little comic with the Chosen Hero and the Hero of Men. There's no dialogue, but it still has a strong sense of sadness and hope. And the parallels between the two are fantastic, I really wish Nintendo gave us more information about what happened between Skyward Sword and Minish Cap because now I'm really thinking about it and how whatever happened had to be pretty scary if the Hero of Men decided it was in everyone's best interest for him to yoink the Chosen Hero's sacred sword from its temple.
All those words to say your art is wonderful and I'm thinking about it and the piece of LoZ lore it represents. ❤️
Ohhhh my go yesssss I would give my life to know more about the hero of men,,, its literally crazy to me that there’s a link that’s just. There. No game no story no nothing. WHO IS THAT TELL ME?? Thinking about who he could’ve been is one of the joys of life but it tends to feel more like writing an OC than expanding on known lore, bc be barely have any,,,
Actually, Ill use this to ramble about what I do tend to think for him here, hope that’s okay!!
I love love love that u said that what was happening during the hero of men’s time had to be pretty scary, bc YEAH. To pull the sword of the first hero and first king of Hyrule (^.^) who probably would kill to not have fi be woken up is CRAZYYYY,,, either he’s oblivious or in a really bad situation,,, What is known about him leaves to believe that he was a knight tho, and they 100% knew about fis resting ground,, It is said that the world was about to be swallowed by evil, which makes me think Botw final cutscene or sksw final girahim type severity of monster floods. So I think hom (ill refer to the hero of men like this for now) link probably saw getting the sacred, legendary master sword as his only chance at saving hyrule.
Tumblr media
Idk if he would’ve know himself to be the legendary hero reborn due to triforce mark, maybe he just stumbled across it in an attempt to hide some injured knights in the temple of hylia,,,, Side note on the temple of hylia, love the abandoned look in the comic but it doesn’t really make sense, does it? Bc why would sksw Link want fis resting place to not be well kept? Would he visit before his passing?
Anyway, he takes the sword defeats the monster hoards and gives hyrule a brief moment of safety. He’s made into a high ranking knight or maybe head of the knights (he’s probably rather young still, as that seems to be a theme for the chosen hero and priestess, so maybe late teens, and before having the master sword he was a knight in training?) and then, when the picori/minish come down to earth (i dunno from where, was that ever said? Just from the skies i thiinkkk,,,) he gets the picori blade and I think the light force from them. It’s similar use does bring up the question why hom link would use the picori blade over the master sword,, maybe because its a gift and the master sword is like this sacred sword meant to rest and that got him feeling bad hahaha,, Hom link trapped the monsters rather than killing them but I can’t remember if the trapped them in the sword or the chest or somewhere else hmm,,, the sword later turns into the four sword right? (I’m so sorry im too lazy rn to do research 😭) I don’t think hom link would’ve been able to use it as this tho, i think he never got it to a point like this, just used it to save the world once and then gave it away for the contest ^^ In one of the stained glass the sword he gets DOES look like the four sword but i am going to ignore that bc I think i can.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Also, for reasons that I can’t (don’t want to) talk about rn I personally would change it being the 50th anniversary of the Picori Festival instead of the 100th ^.^ also I think hom link would stay a close friend to the royal family partially to protect the holder of the light force which was sealed into his Zelda i think and passed down to her children and their children yk,, and don’t tell anyone I said this but he is alive during minish cap and ezlo was one of the minish that gave him the blade during the Force era ;)
I also think the minish weren’t really ever introduced to the public but instead kept in strict contact to the royal family and those they trusted, which is why during mc basically no one knows about them, and those that once did are already fairly old or dead.
I’m not gonna read this over, hope everything makes sense and is coherent
Thanks for the ask !!!!! Drawing the comic was so fun I’m happy u like it :D
