Lore on Astor's backstory

 Here's something I made up to give you a taste on my ongoing original story Shadows To Hope.

It's a backstory I made up about Astor. 

Kay, here it is!!!!!



Astor’s mother was Loreyl, the Prophet of the Lost Woods. So when, fifteen years before the Calamity (Age of Calamity timeline), the not yet formed Demon King attempted to steal her power. In that situation Astor was only ten years old, so he could do nothing to stand against him. Loreyl concealed her power into a triangular amulet that Hylia gave to her as an individual. This is the pendant of Wisdom, a piece of the triforce that Astor will obtain in Shadows to Hope which has not yet been released. Anyway, Loreyl tells kid Astor to run while she distracts Ganondorf. This is the complicated part. As he flees, she wills herself into non-existence, meaning her spirit and Ganondorf’s are forever clashing. THAT is why Ganondorf is so easy to beat in TOTK. Now, you’re probably thinking: why isn’t Astor’s mother’s spirit released when Ganon is defeated? You’re right…but also not. Astor carries the blood of a Prophet meaning he definitely has some kind of spiritual connection to Loreyl. In which, the only way to free her spirit is for her son to defeat Ganon. Which is the only thing I’ve done that makes sense. So Astor, now a fugitive of Ganon. Is heartbroken and on the run, jumping from village to village. My theory is that he settled in Hateno, reading every book and getting as much gossip as he could in that time because he had no one to school him. After he got a decent take on life he started studying magic and sorcery and read tales about gods and their divinity. Astor found a book on the inn table and read it. It was about spells and such, he awed in the many things he thought he knew. He thought he could learn and perfect these spells. Suddenly, the owner of the book bursts into the room and sees that his book is being read by a now twelve year old kid. Enraged that his idiotic secret plan to take over the village was uncovered by a little kid, he throws Astor out of the village with such force, it knocks him out and leaves him badly injured. Now, the man’s intention was in fact to kill him, as if Astor learned those spells he could stand against him to warn the previous mayor. The thing he didn’t know was that Astor wasn’t a local. Which was kind of weird that he thought that because locals from the Necluda usually have brown hair and semi-white skin. Astor, on the other hand, was pale and had black hair. The man, a bandit, was caught and arrested for taking the book from the Royal family. Thinking there is no hope for him, Astor lay on the ground, dying from the force of the fall. Luckily for him, a young girl finds him and treats his wounds. Next time he wakes up, he is in a stone hut and somebody is pacing around it. She notices his recovery and rushes to make sure he’s OK. He scoots back in alarm, which hurts so he winces in pain. The girl tells him she has no intention of hurting him and that she saved him from death that would've happened that day. He thanks her and she greets herself as Amira. Being the Goddess of Graves, It would naturally be hard for her to save lives magically, but the bandit did not use magic to hurt Astor, that was an incredibly stupid move on his part. But..! Amira is not only the Goddess of Graves, for she is ALSO the goddess of rain, hate, the underestimated, potential, peace and restoration. From now on the pair will go on to be great friends and go on many adventures. Until Amira is taken by the Demon King and Astor’s world is cast into darkness. Alone, Astor foolishly makes a deal with the Calamity and becomes one of seven disciples, six of which die, leaving Astor as the Catalyst Of Calamity.

Welcome to my blog! This is where you can find my Zelda fan art and occasionally the odd tip for any Zelda game. Also theories that remain unsolved like the creepy Link statue from Majora's Mask. What's up with that thing? (You can find it by playing the "Elegy of Emptiness" in normal form) I like to draw Astor and Harbinger Ganon in chibi form, so if you want me to draw them in a certain position or location, just put it in the comments and I'll pick someone every week to draw it for. Rememeber that I'm TEN so no adult situations!. None of ALL THAT!!! I can also draw them in any location in any Zelda or Hyrule Warriors game - just specify! If I'm feeling it I can also draw Link and Zelda and other champions and characters. Just say it and I might do it. I also might deny it, but you know...worth a shot.  I don't necessarily need to draw them chibi, but I prefer that. To get you started here is Astor being forced to wear deely-boppers. He is NOT please...
 Nuggetbackstorys returns with 2 new backstories of Astor! I’m so glad I stared this! It’s the funnest thing I’ve done in a month! If you can’t read it/are unable to read it because of my bad penmanship take notice of the title. It reveals the basic format of the story. I’ve already finished seven of them but I’m going to have to keep you waiting. ;) (Translation will come once someone requests it) Just in case you didn’t read any of that these are”Forsaken Memories” and “An Obliged Agreement”  By the way, I’m have trouble publishing images sometimes, so they’ll be on the blog shortly.:) :) -Sincerely, Nuggetbackstorys Official Team 😜
 Here is a picture of Princess Mipha, the Zora Champion from Breath of the Wild, a recent Zelda game. I just drew it right now, so it might not be as good as if I'd drawn it in like a week.
