Official Skyward Sword Gaepora Artwork

We have some new official Skyward Sword artwork, this time of the headmaster of Skyloft’s knight academy, Zelda’s father, Gaepora. The character art is similar to the previous pieces we’ve seen, but there’s something very interesting about this one.
Check out what we mean below:
What’s that you’re holding Gaepora? It looks an awful lot like the Book of Mudora:
Skyward Sword is, so far, the earliest game in the timeline for the series, and since Gaepora keeps the “knowledge of the history and legends of Skyloft,” it isn’t out of the question for him to be in possession of the book.
As a reminder, the Book of Mudora appears in A Link to the Past. In the game, Link finds the book in Kakariko Village (Sheikah connection) and uses it to translate Ancient Hylian. He uses it to translate the text on the Master Sword’s pedestal.
All signs signs point to that this is in fact the Book of Mudora.
There is also some official Fi artwork, which we have seen before, but this time it is not layed over a parchment background:
