    Summary

    ‘Free the four Divine Beasts!’
    That was what the Princess left him with. Out of all the things to give to him in this new, rotting world, she chose a single, tiny sentence.

    or, Link goes to save the world and finds himself saving some old friends too.

    Summary

    In the Upheaval, Link and Zelda won the day, but they came out changed for it. Zelda is now the Dragon of Light, and even if she's regained Hylian form, she still has the horns, tail, and scales of a dragon. And Link has the arm of a Zonai, one that enables him to use strange powers of fusion. Zelda has a theory that Link hasn't fully tested the limits of what can be infused with the essence of a monster part and how that might be used for the reconstruction of the Kingdom.

    It's definitely for the reconstruction of the Kingdom. And science. Rebuilding Hyrule and science. Certainly not any other desires Princess Zelda might have...

    Summary

    There are unexpected consequences to the day Link spent guarding Paya after the heirloom was stolen.

    Rated to be safe, but is really more of a “how would these characters react in this situation?” thought experiment than anything else. No smut.

      Personal notes/etc:
      Love me a good rarepair fic. Not sure if this is just on hiatus or if it's been discontinued, but either way it's worth the read.

    Summary

    Ganon has had millennia to learn to strike when the hero is weakest. When he is unsure. When he is frightened and alone.
    This time, Ganon struck 3 days after Link found the Master Sword—at just 12 years old.
    The Guardians were corrupted by Malice, the Divine Beasts and their brave Champions fell. So the Age of Burning Fields began while a dead hero lay entombed in the Shrine of Resurrection for a hundred years. Meanwhile, across time, previous Heroes are gathering. Something or someone had called them out of retirement.

     

    AKA: the events of Breath of the Wild but the Chain is there and Wild is 12
     

    no part of this work may be used to train AI. None of these characters belong to me.

    Summary

    "I can tell when something disturbs you, you know?" He turned to face her after dropping the bales of hay at their place. Her thick brows were slightly furrowed and she was resting her hands over her heart. She looked so lovely, he thought to himself, with her long golden hair and cheeks rosy from the sun, standing in that adorable yellow cotton dress that he had bought for her the previous month, with no little exasperation from her at the expense. Like that, she deserved nothing but the truth, he decided.
    -
    She is the brightest star of them all.

    Summary

    Zelda didn’t think, didn’t hesitate; she just leapt for Link, reaching desperately for his hand as her own began to glow. She’d protected herself and the Brigade from a cataclysmic fall like this once, she could do it again, weakened powers be damned. She needed to save Link. No matter what, she needed to save him. They were getting out of here together, damn it all.

    There was a burst of gold in Link’s pocket (the teardrop!) and it spread outwards in waves of glitter. The gold encased his entire body, the Triforce of Courage blazed with all the power of the sun, their fingers brushed and then, in one last blast of light-

    “Link!” Zelda screamed again, more desperately than ever as he vanished before her eyes.

    *

    Six years after the Big Bad Bazz Brigade destroyed Calamity Ganon, a new threat arises: Ganondorf the Demon King. With Link missing it's up to Zelda and the Brigade to find him and destroy the greatest threat the world has ever faced.
    But where is Link? Where is the Master Sword? The answers lie in the Sky and the Depths.

    OR: It's another family road trip to save the world- Zelda edition.

    Summary

    Set in the next reincarnation after BOTW. Though the legends of the Calamity are known throughout Hyrule, very few people believe they actually occurred.
    Lord Ganon is determined to gain his people's independence from Hyrule and Princess Zelda, armed with what she believes to be memories from her past lives, is convinced his presence means the downfall of her kingdom is at hand. But with no proof beyond what she's seen in her dreams, and no Hero of Courage to help her, she can only watch events unfold and pray Lord Ganon doesn't destroy everything she holds dear.
    Meanwhile, in the brothel known as the Silent Princess, Ganon meets a beautiful young man named Link who he feels inexplicably drawn to and is determined to learn all he can about the mysterious Hylian.

    Summary

    Link had thought for some time now that he could manage on his own no matter what; The nightmares would simply vanish in the morning, and the self-doubt, he could always conceal with the sight of defeated, slaughtered monsters flashing across his eyes as he placed his master sword back into its scabbard.

    But even after the Calamity's fall, Hyrule isn't immune to a new threat. Now that a new foe crawls its way out of the land itself and that the fatigue reaches him, Link comes to the realization that he wouldn't mind welcoming a bit of company into his life.

    Summary

    Linkle was enjoying a mostly-peaceful retirement after defeating the Calamity, traveling around Hyrule and reconnecting with the friends and family she had forgotten from amnesia, until eight ancient heroes came looking for a new Link to join the Chain. Pretending to be a man in order to prank her legendary predecessors wasn't on her bucket list until now, but when her best friend Zelda says they were inviting "Sir Link" to join them on a quest to eradicate black-blooded monsters, she had the perfect opportunity. Will her little practical joke keep all the boys at arms' length, or will the Heroine of the Wild find herself gaining a new set of brothers on this time-space-hopping adventure?

    (Yes I know I'm late to the party on this whole "Chain Meets Wild" thing, but I hope I brought a fresh twist!)

    Summary

    A work exploring the events that took place before the calamity- detailing Link's chaotic ascendance into the royal guard, his first meetings with each of the champions, Zelda, and the people who raised him. [Complete!]
     

    "Link tossed the sword down. It stayed upright, embedded into the dirt and mud. He wanted to tell her just how desperately he’d wanted to reject it and put it back into its pedestal. The way he ran and lied, and was still lying. King Rhoam was the one who insisted the truth be buried, but Link didn’t utter a word of protest. He may have come clean, but he had no intention of coming clean to all of Hyrule.
     
    He felt he didn’t owe Hyrule anything.

    But the question remained, just how much did he owe Zelda?"
