Twilight Princess, Midna

Hey everyone! Sheik here. Today I am going to talk about the best Legend of Zelda character there is, that's right, Midna. Now, you can have your own favorite character, but Midna is mine. Also like always, this may contain spoilers for the game Twilight Princess.

 
Now, there must be a million reason why Midna is my favorite character. For the sake of time, I will only name the biggest ones. First, look how powerful she is! Yes, I know Zelda is powerful, but look at Midna! She can kill people with her hair. She killed Zant, who was granted the power of a god, with her hair. Now yes I know, its not necessarily where her power comes from. She is a descendant of the first Twili, and the lawful ruler of the entire realm. Her ancestors created the fused shadows, one of the most powerful objects in the Legend of Zelda series. She has inherited this power, and that henceforth makes her one of the most powerful characters in the game.
 
 
Now I don't only like her for her power. I mostly like her for her wisdom, and courage to do what is right. When she first meets Link, she doesn't care about the world of light at all. Her only concern is saving her people of the Twilight realm. While Link is gathering the fused shadows, she begins to realize maybe the people of light aren't as bad as she thought they where. After Link gets all the fused shadows, Zant appears, If you don't know, Zant is the Usurper King of the Twilight realm. He turns Link back to his wolf form, and offers to make a deal with Midna. He says they can work together, to rid of the light world, and let it be taken over by shadow. She refuses, and Zant exposes her to the light, almost killing her. Link tries to save her by bringing her to Princess Zelda. Her final request is that Zelda shows Link where the mirror of Twilight is, so he can stop Zant and save the light. Zelda then gives a mysterious power to Midna, as she is disappearing. After this, Midna's main goal is to save the world of light, for it is just as important as her own. Link and Midna manage to defeat Zant and Ganondarf and both worlds are now safe. As Midna is returning to her world, she says her goodbyes and thanks Link and Zelda for all they have done. She cannot say goodbye to Link though, and a single golden tear falls down her eye. She simply tells him, "See you later", as she shatters the mirror and steps through the portal as it breaks. Now that may not seem like a big deal, but she sacrificed her own happiness, for the sake of her people, and theirs. By breaking the mirror, no more evils can seep from the realm, and threaten the light realm.
