100 years after the events of the Calamity, Hyrule still lies on the verge of annihilation. The Princess, the King, and the five Champions were believed to be dead. However, the Princess and the fifth Champion are still alive...

Find out what happened to Hyrule and unlock secrets about the distant past, all while trying to save Hyrule before time runs out! Can our Heroes do it? Read to find out!

Note: It'll have some fanart done by other artists and me, and it'll have the BotW OST.
