I For One Think It's An Absolute Crime That There Isn't More Art And Stories About These Two Together.

I for one think it's an absolute crime that there isn't more art and stories about these two together.

I started this a while ago, so I'm not 100% happy with some of the line work in it, But overall I'm happy with how it came out.

There are 11 playable links in the loz, 12 if oracles is actualy his own link, 16 if you count triforce hero's and hyrule legends, and 19 if you count the four swords hero as 4 separate links.

List with games featuring same link grouped:

• Skyward sword

• Minish cap

• Four swords & four swords adventures

• ocarina of time and majora's mask

• twilight princess

• Wind waker & phantom hourglass

• Spirit tracts

• The original loz & the adventure of link

• Link between worlds

• Breath of the wild

• Link to past, oracles, & links awakening

• hyrule legends

• triforce heroes

Explanations of oddities in the counting:

It is possible that the link from oracles is his own hero.

There are 3 heroes in trifoce heros.

The reason why I put triforce heroes and hyrule legends in a separate grouping is due to uncertainty over if they are considered cannon to the loz universe.

-> there is also the hero of 10000 years ago who is mentioned in botw, but has no game.

-> There is also the First Hero from that comic if you want to count him as cannon. (personally I don't. It's not that I don't like him, it's just it conflicts with what I understand the intro to skyward sword is saying.)

So, that would make the current max number of links -if you count all as cannon- to be 21.

Fun note! The four swords link is a lovely example of why the official timeline is worthless. It is more than heavy-handedly implied that it is the same link in the two four swords games.

Considering the people of hyrule's habit of forgetting the hero's name the moment he dies, I find it extremely unlikely that they would mention link by name if it's not the same link. Also considering hyrule's long standing tradition of forgetting about where major big bad evils are sealed, I have very, very, VERY many doubts that they would just happen to have been keeping meticulous track of where a minor wind sorcerer is seald. Need more convincing? So according to the timeline, the minish cap and four swords are right next to each other. By the events of four swords the hero's name from minish cap has been forgotten. Now if the timeline is to be believed, an absurd amount of time and one timeline split later they still remember the story of the four swords perfectly. Yet have no recollection of oot or tp. That doesn't line up. So I'm calling BS on the timeline.

Oh you want more math? Sure thing!

Only counting links that are for sure cannon = 11 links

If oracles is separate link = 12 links

Counting four swords as 4 links = 14 links

FS = 4 links + oracles = 15 link

FS + oracles + hero of 10000 years ago = 16 links

I could go on, but I don't really feel like doing that right now.

Most of the internet: eternatus is super evil! It can probably possess people!!

Me: eternatus did nothing wrong ever, and I'm going to make so many AUs about this smol bean.

This is a scene from an AU idea I have. Maybe someday I'll post a quick explanation of it.

Oh. O h . That, that might actually explain something that's been bothering me for a while now.

Ok so something that I just could not come up with any explanation for in regards to Rose was why the fricker-snaps did he treat Eternatus so horribly. Everything we learn about Rose points to him caring deeply for all of the inhabitants of Galar, both human and pokemon. Heck, he's the one who gives us the "pokemon are our friends, partners, and family!" spiel at the start of the game. So it makes zero sense whatsoever for him to suddenly pull a 180° and abuse eternatus for an energy source.

...But what if Rose didn't know eternatus was alive at first?

My assumption had been that eternatus upon reforming would always look vaguely like a living thing. But if at first it was only the glowing core, well that's a completely different story.

Our closest comparison for piecing a pokemon back together is zygard. A zygard cell has a cute face which makes it pretty obvious that it's a living thing. On the other hand, there is nothing about wishing stars and eternatus' core that denotes that they are a living being. And Rose wouldn't have gotten a warning from the old legends about eternatus being alive as they do not at any point hint that the darkest day was a living pokemon.

And sure there are some rock types that at first glance don't particularly have any living characteristics, but I can't think of any that doesn't at least have a vague caricature of a face that allows the human psyche to pack bond with the 'mon like they're Pluto.

But as stated above, eternatus' core and the wishing stars don't have any characteristics that suggest that they are alive. They look like just a bunch of rocks and a glowing ball of energy. They can't move on their own either. Rose wouldn't have any reason to think that this was a living pokemon.

And what if it took a lot of time and wishing stars for eternatus' core to start transforming into a recognizably living being? And even longer for it to start responding to its environment?

Maybe by the time Rose could realize that something was horribly wrong, he would feel he was in too deep to turn back.

... I always thought that the shadows over Rose's eyes made him look emotionally tired. I also feel like they get more accentuated as the story progresses. Maybe the shadows over his eyes represent his growing horror and guilt.

…Wait. Wait a fucking minute.

Why am I asking “how did Rose even find Eternatus?” when I should be asking “HOW THE FUCK DID HE SMUGGLE THAT GIGANTIC SON OF A BITCH INTO THE HAMMERLOCKE POWER PLANT WITHOUT ANYONE NOTICING?”

SIXTY-FIVE FEET

I mean THAT’S FUCKING HUGE

So Oleana is canonically 5 ft 11 in her heels, right? Let’s do a height comparison, if we pretend Eternatus can stand like a humanoid for a moment.
