* [[OurGryphonsAreDifferent The griffins]] are said to be distrustful of humans, but the griffin council keeps stating they know of Hyrule and of Zelda, teach their children about Link's adventures, and keep stating they hope that someday griffins and humans can learn to trust one another and get along someday. What better way to do that than with a marriage bringing the two people together?

[[WMG: Before becoming a DeadFic, [[InterspeciesRomance Zelda/Dalamar was supposed to become a canon pairing.]]]]
There are several things pointing to this conclusion:
* Zelda catches the bouquet at the wedding, and the text helpfully reminds us this means she'll be the next to marry.
* It's mentioned that Zelda will only take the throne if she gets married, otherwise Link is next in line and Jenna becomes the queen. In all of the numerous sequel and spin-off fics, Link and Jenna still live in their house in the Lost Woods, and Zelda is clearly serving as a regent. The latest fic chronologically features all four of Link and Jenna's children, set thirteen years after the beginning of the story, yet Zelda is ''still'' acting monarch while the king is not mentioned at all. This suggests that Link did not become king after all.
* [[DefrostingIceQueen Dalamar]]'s expressions soften when he looks at Zelda from the moment they meet. Compare this to his suspicion when he first meets Link and Jenna; Zelda is the first character he seems to truly warm up to, as slight as it is. He also stays in Zelda's castle during the night, rather than going with Link and Jenna to their own house.
* Zelda's face is described as "rosy" when she looks at Dalamar, when normally she's described as "white," "fair," and "pale." Either Link's Queen wanted to try a new descriptor... or it's a subtle way to say she's blushing.
* [[OurGryphonsAreDifferent The griffins]] are said to be distrustful of humans, but the griffin council keeps stating they know of Hyrule and of Zelda, teach their children about Link's adventures, and keep stating they hope that someday griffins and humans can learn to trust one another and get along someday.

* Silverblade is actually supposedly ''Link'''s [[NamedByTheAdaptation surname]]. Jenna got it through marriage, and her maiden name is never stated.

* This would be in line with ''My Inner Life'''s tendency to have its own new characters and concepts replace, overshadow, and outperform canon characters (such as Jenna herself essentially taking everything from Zelda including potentially the throne of Hyrule and Epona being sidelined in favor of a new horse).

fixed a typo and found an excuse to insert "Royal Hylian Mounted Police"


She became obsessed with Link the second she saw him, albeit not the way the fic has it. After a couple of years of [[StalkerWithACrush stalking him]], she deluded herself into thinking they were a couple. She got a horse and followed him around on it, pretended to summon elements so he'd see her as a strong woman like his canon love interests, and tried to cozy up to Zelda and pretend to be her best friend. But you don't get that close to Hyrule's royal family without someone noticing, and that was the point when they locked her up. The fanfic is Jenna's ongoing elaborate delusion, and Zelda's demotion to babysitter and midwife is a subconscious revenge fantasy, because Jenna blames Zelda for locking her up.

Link realizes that [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone he's married a girl who's extremely possessive and deluded]] and [[RelationshipSue slowly warping reality so that he'd stay in love with her]]. He can't break up with her directly because he doesn't think she'd take it well and doesn't know (or what to know) what she'd try. When Dark Link shows up and Jenna goes to fight him, Link sees an opportunity -- he'd let Jenna fight him alone, wait for her to lose and get killed, then show up and kill Dark Link himself. He'd then pretend to be a grieving survivor, having showed up too late to save his "beloved" wife, and resolve to raise his son the right way -- without Jenna's evil influence. Only problem was that Jenna turned out to have [[NewPowersAsThePlotDemands hidden special powers]] and actually won the fight. Although she's unconscious after the battle, Link thinks it's too risky to try to kill her outright because the emergence of Jenna's powers means the scene will be inspected for sure; he has to try again later. His next chance is in the final chapter, when the bat-creature attacks -- he didn't even follow his pregnant wife upstairs to fight with her.
