    Summary

    Link learns about his past, his childhood, his heritage. Somehow nobody knows why Link is the only Hylian (no explanation for real?) with the Triforce clearly visible on the back of his hand (come on, Nintendo) living in a treehouse in a small village at the edge of the kingdom. And nobody knows about his family either. OoT Link shares a similar fate, but at least we know his mom took him in care of the Kokiri before she (most likely) passed away. I know, the TP manga has its own plot about this, but I like to share my own fiction, too :D Also some Link/Ilia hints. Or more like obvious stuff. Take it or leave it. I you don't like (or even hate) their „relationship“ (because of her bossy attitude) you should skip that fanfiction.

    Summary

    The events leading up to the destruction of the Gerudo are a mystery, even to the history books. All they know is that the curse finally took hold of Ganondorf and he destroyed everything. So why is Link having dreams about a city he’s never seen, of a place that couldn’t possibly exist? Rusl thinks it’s a blessing, but Link wonders if it’s actually a curse. The more he travels across Hyrule, the clearer the picture becomes, but there comes a point where he has to decide what to do with that information. He can pretend as much as he’d like, but one way or another, history always has a way of repeating itself.

    OR, the Ganonlink mummy au no one asked for.

    Summary

    Summary

    The seeds of distrust have been planted in the Court of Hyrule. The era of Twilight has been over for seven years, yet Zelda's authority has been called into question.
    Her advisors turn on her as she sets out to escort a foreign envoy to Hyrule.

    Link, having left a life of servitude as a royal knight, enjoys his quiet life in Ordon Village. His peace is disturbed when he receives a letter from Shad, who has undertaken an academic task for Zelda.

    On the same unassuming day in Summer, a lone traveller arrives at Telma's pub. After receiving a favour, she offers to work as a serving girl.

    Unbeknownst to him, Link is dragged into another personal battle. The once in a lifetime battle that he'd undertaken seemingly leads to another peril.
    The enigmatic traveller seems to know more than she is letting on and she is key as to what is to unfold.

    Tagged relationships are context. Based off the TP Manga. All characterisations and appearances are based off the manga.

    Summary

    It's been a few years since Link and Midna saved Hyrule from Ganondorf and Zant. Link is now a highly regarded nobleman thanks to his heroic actions on behalf of the kingdom, and many Hylians can't help but obsess over Link's personal life, which has been riddled with failed relationships. He still has the Shadow Crystal to attain his canine abilities at will, but when the Shadow Crystal shatters and he is stuck in his wolf form, what is he to do?

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------

    "How powerful a love like that must be; to easily transcend the barrier between life and death...How lost and unsure she must feel…of her worth or sense of being, perhaps? Maybe I would feel the same way had I lost Ilia to death or someone else precious to me? The only difference is...I have never been in love..."
