☼ one → first ballad → video

[The feed opens to the princess a great deal of the city would be familiar with at this point, smiling and waving to the camera.]

Hello, Vatheon. I hope everyone is feeling a little more themselves after last week? I had meant to do this sooner, but circumstances prevented it. I would like to introduce you all to my ancestor, Zelda.

[With that, she zooms the camera out a bit to show another girl, practically identical to her other than the fact that she has bangs.]

Hello, Vatheon! It’s nice to meet you.

[ The girl waves energetically to the camera. She has only been in the bubble for a few weeks, but she already feels at home with her new friends. It was cute seeing everyone running around as babies, too! But, like her descendant, she’s glad everyone’s back to normal as well. ]

I apologize if this is too confusing. We’re still trying to get used to it ourselves!

[The princess' smile grows sheepish.]

It is a bit confusing since we share a name and an appearance. To help differentiate, I will be wearing my tiara again. If anyone is ever speaking to both of us at the same time, please refer to me by title - "princess" - so as to minimize any confusion. Hyrule did not yet have a royal family in Zelda's time, so we will easily be able to know who you are referring to that way.

[ The newer Zelda nods. At least she’s finally gotten to the point where she stops visibly swooning whenever “Hyrule” is mentioned. (Hey, it’s been her dream to live on the Surface for a long time, okay.) ]

Or you can call me “Sky”, as some have already dubbed me. It doesn’t matter to me either way. If there’s anything I can do to make this easier, please- don’t hesitate to ask.

[Swooning is a legitimate reaction to have over Hyrule, First Zelda.]

Yes, by all means, if you have any questions for either of us, feel free to ask! We will be happy to answer.

Similar in result, at least, though not in mechanism. Our people have tales suggesting that we all have some ancestor that we share aspects with. One thing to note is that our people to not have any specific ties to heredity, so our ancestors are supposed to be the only other trolls that share any sort genetic lineage with us. The actual story deviates from the cultural tales, but the fact is that the trolls that are here in Vatheon are all members of one of two groups: Ancestors or Descendants. The Descendants are younger, like myself, and there should be a one-to-one correspondence between the groups, though we are missing some of each group.

I'm sorry. I have a tendency to ramble sometimes. My name is Kanaya. It's a pleasure to meet you Miss Zelda.

[Though if this Zelda is anything like the Princess she knows, she'll be absorbing the whole infodump with enthusiasm and a thirst for more.]

[Kanaya giggles just a little at that]

That sounds just like something your descendant would say. I'm glad you both got this opportunity. I recently got to meet my ancestor as well, so I understand how strange and amazing it is to find someone you should have never been able to meet who happens to be so very similar to yourself.

Oh, many. Beyond the similarities of personality, our lives seem to be tied together. Some events were repeated for both of us, and others were mirrored: similar, but with an opposite result. The people she met in her life were mostly the ancestors of the people I met in mine, and we had mostly similar relationships with them, with the exceptions of the point that were mirrored.

It's been quite an interesting process learning about the connection. We aren't exactly the same, but we're close enough for it to seem uncanny.
