Hylian blondes are cute

A half-length portrait of Raelle, finished concept sketch. Very pretty is she, I think. This fair lassie’s full name is Raelleanoranda, because her mother is insane. (like Gaila – the stereotype I singlehandedly crafted of a stout, overbearing, ‘fashionable’, social-climbing mother). Raelle herself is a nice girl, called Ella by her girl friends, Ray by her father and her boy friends, and Raelle by everyone else. She has a sister named Chrysanthemum, married to a nice guy named Peter, I think. Raelle ran away from an arranged marriage to a fat, drunk general in the Hylian army and she ran to Labrynna. You see, I thought Raven was so handsome, and his marriage was guaranteed, that I took the liberty of making up a suitable match for him. She is cheerful, able to wield a sword, and likes fishing and gardening. Blonde hair, blue eyes. I tried to make Raelle’s hair the kind of over-the-top waves like Nayru, the Oracle.
