WARNING: Mod is now full-blown ESL-flagged as of version 1. 1.  A new game will be REQUIRED if updating from any previous non-ESL-flagged version due to FormID changes.  Failure to heed this will result in IRREPARABLE DAMAGE to one's save game.  NO EXCEPTIONS.

Thought I'd make this because there’s not many Zelda mods for Skyrim as of yet. Been playing BOTW recently, lovely game kind of want Skyrim to have that same charm. I tried to recreate her likeness much as possible while still retaining human like face features, rather than go full anime style with exaggerated googly eyes ◉‿◉, I might do a optional version like that later, if you are into that. This is my first follower mod so I do apologize if something is not right and lemme know what you think.

Highly recommended mods to use alongside her
