Summary
It was clear to him that this boy had something worth resolving himself over. A family, most likely, or perhaps he was incredibly determined to achieve his dreams, or he was doing it to survive. Held in the boy’s tiny hands was an equally tiny sword. The sword was carved from wood, and clearly, whoever had carved it had no clue what they were doing, the boy was bound to have splinters if he continued swinging that blade. In fact, he could see some showing up on the boy’s hands now.
The boy seemed to see it too… and yet, he just kept swinging that sword. Over and over, again and again.
“Your form is off,” he said suddenly, unsure of what impulse he was acting on, but feeling the need to help this boy. That was unusual. He can’t recall the last time he’d done something with a real sense of compassion.
It was probably nothing.

A dream.
Hylia mouths at his chest— a hooked beak, or needle-teeth— demise bites down— burns like a brand— there is a hand on his inner thigh, immovable and desperate—A dream, a dream, a dream...

Summary
Link's day was supposed to be routine: traverse the Ten Realms, report to the princess, and return to his duties as an engineer.
When a mysterious portal hurled him into an unfamiliar world, Link had no choice but to embrace his previously quite happily long-forgotten skills, and reluctantly take up the moniker of hero once more.
The more he learned about his fellow heroes' absolutely non-existent abilities to not almost die every other second, the more Link wished he hadn't given up smoking.
Well, no time like the present, he guessed.

Summary
A trip through Wild's Hyrule comes to an end just as anyone would expect; only this time, Wild isn't called to pass through the portal. In the face of a mysterious second adventure, he must stand aside while his brothers depart without him. Likewise, the chain is forced to leave Wild behind with no idea when they may see him again. They're left to wonder if this marks the end of an unsuccessful journey or if something is happening to their brother while they're separated.
Basically, I saw all the angsty "Wild has to leave" fics and said "Hold my beer."
Also, teen and up is the rating simply because the themes might get pretty heavy and there are a few curse words. Beyond that, it should be safe.Edit: I'm eating my words. Please read the tags.
Edit/Update: I ran out of space in the tags. Check for TW/CW at the start of the chapters. I will try to tag all the major stuff; but again, I ran out of space. -

Summary
It all starts with a memory.
When Time, Twilight and Wild realise that they have something in common other than the Hero's Spirit and their Beast Souls, they fall down a rabbit hole of secrets and family relationships, not just concerning themselves, but the rest of the Chain as well. The blood of heroes runs through their veins, and not just because they have all proven themselves to be worthy of the title.
The Chain finds themselves with a new goal, besides just defeating the Shadow and its black-blooded hordes. They find themselves an opportunity to right a wrong twenty years and multiple timelines in the making. And they will correct it, even if they have to break time itself to do so.

Summary
Look, Link has had his adventure, and he's glad it's all over. He saved the kingdom and is finally able to relax and just live peacefully in Hateno.
But since he's a Hero of Courage, Hylia said, 'fuck that' and flung him into a new universe.
So now Link just wakes up in a chamber with nothing on but some underwear. The only things in the room are a crate with goddesses know what, the Sheikah Slate, and a skeleton. Of course there's a skeleton.
Turns out it's another Link. Welp guess Link is changing his name.
OR:
Age of Calamity Link is finally done with his journey, (he can finally sleep!) but something happened Breath of the Wild Link died and Hylia had no other choice but to send him to that timeline...
Turns out it worked a bit worse than she could've thought, now there were twelve Links(thirteen if you count the Skeleton) running about and ruining her well organized timeline.
(Also First is Hylia's first hero and Wish is EoW Link)
