Description
A short story piece inspired by Zelda: Breath of the Wild 2.Her short hair made me question why she would have cut it, what event might have precipitated that.

It's common for women to cut their hair short after a major event that has caused a change in their character, and/or it's a way to liberate themselves from an event or their past. It's basically a step towards starting a new life and becoming a new person. In Japanese media this is a trope and it's very common in anime.
Given the situation Zelda was in and how her life has drastically changed after Ganon taking over, it's understandable as to why the character design team would make her have short hair. It's a way to express to the audience that she has matured and changed since the last game.

Hmmm... not a bad idea; it COULD explain her now short hair. Only problem: Link.

Link could have came at the last second, I mean if you look at him he's untouched compared to Zelda.

What I meant was: How could Zelda have gotten hurt with Link always beside her?
