Um, Think I've Found Something Significant? Wind Waker - Skyward Sword Connection?

[:Zelda:Druggie:]

I was replaying WW today, and I noticed something I think is pretty interesting and has never been mentioned before. We all know the traditional symbol of Hyrule/The Royal Family is the whole bird wings w. Triforce thingy, but I saw this in Zelda's portrait in Hyrule Castle, which seems so connected to SS it's almost scary (sorry the pic is kinda small) You see just the bird wings, and no triforce, which is the basic symbol we've been seeing lately for Skyward Sword!! You can also see it on a door from SS and on the back of that important-looking guys robe from the Bird Ceremony I've never seen this mentioned before, I think it may be significant, what could this mean??

Sorry to debunk your theory, but I don't belive it holds any signi***ence. The bird itself is the Hylian Crest. The Hylian Crest represents the hylian race. What you are thinking about is the crest of the royal family of Hyrule, which represents the royal family of Hyrule, hence the name. Since the game is earlier in the timeline, and there is (presumably) no royal family yet, the crest is a little different and deffintly not the crest of the royal family of Hyrule.

I just find it strange that the regular Hylian Crest can be found all over that area, except for in this one picture

Well, the Hylian Royal Family hasn't been established yet. That symbol on the old man is Zelda's bird symbol, so it makes sense that it will be combined with the Triforce at the end to make the Royal Crest.

I know, but I meant in the WW Hyrule Castle the normal crest, triforce and all, is found all over except for in that one portrait of Zelda, leading me to think maybe the Zelda in that portrait and SS Zelda have something in common ? Or am I over thinking everything ? xD And it's odd because the only place we've seen this bird symbol is in Skyward Sword

well, i saw it too. SS might explain how it came to be

WW is long after SS. That's why it's the full crest.

Yes but I'm saying in this one picture, it's not the full crest

where is that picture from (the WW one)? I've never seen it. it looks like fan art

It's in Hyrule Castle. (And I need more characters.)

Well... I'm fairly positive all of the Zeldas are related... Maybe the bird symbol was passed down through the generations and became the Hylian Crest... Or could it be that picture was meant to be SS's Zelda after she became a princess?

I get your point. That might have been the Royal Crest after the Family had just established...but why then would it not bear the Triforce above? Paradoxical as it may seem, the picture in WW's Hyrule Castle plausibly does bear early members of the Crown.
