This is a podfic version of Oceanera12's fic Entrenched Echos. The original summary is as follows:
Time... had a bad feeling about this particular temple.
He didn't like the feeling, look, or general location of this temple.
Maybe he should have paid more attention to those feelings.

Time locks eyes with the Rancher and then, pointedly, looks down at the thrashing child in his arms.
"No, I think it is."

To Isolate by Polteageist (Poltea), sky_squido
Fandoms: The Legend of Zelda & Related Fandoms
14 Jan 2023
Tags
Summary
Sky has only just figured out that Ganon is the manifestation of Demise's curse when he starts noticing... something working its way up the chain. Nobody is okay, Sky least of all, but he’s determined to figure out what’s going on or die trying.
He has no idea what he’s getting himself into.
This is a story of pain, fear, loss, and somehow, despite it all, courage.

Rain starts to slowly fall on the skylight in Link’s house. It was the first rainfall after a long heatwave, much to the relief of both him and Ravio.

So why was this anxiety pulling at his stomach?─────────
A Legend-Centric fic where he is the last to join the Chain!

As It Appears by Violoafforprez
Fandoms: The Legend of Zelda & Related Fandoms, Linked Universe - Fandom
09 Feb 2025

Summary
“It’s your shadow! It’s got fangs-”
“-And claws-”
“-And piercing red eyes!”
Warriors, Wind, and Hyrule called out.
“It must be from the moon’s reflection.” Four reasoned, “The deep red of the Blood Moon is being bounced around the cave walls.”
But Warriors wasn’t convinced, because he knew real shadows didn’t work like that.--------

All Zeldas can tell when there's dark magic about. Artemis is maybe just a little more suspicious about it than most. Shadow doesn't really appreciate that.

i'll throw it for you (if you'll chase it) by Seeking7 for obsidianshadow_01
Fandoms: The Legend of Zelda & Related Fandoms

Summary
"Shadow doesn't look like anyone's reflection anymore. He no longer wore his hat, and his skin had lost its greyish pallor. He was tanned now, chasing after fairies, talking about antimicrobial compounds and livestock and future plans that Four would never envision for himself.
At one point, they had been twins, the same soul with a different shape. But they are no longer identical, or even mirror images. Four wonders what that makes them now."
Four never expects to see Shadow again, so he is understandably surprised when they bump into each other. Together, they heal old wounds, but the rest of the chain doesn't know what to make of Four's new companion.
+ + + +
AKA: Four and Shadow reunite, and the others get suspicious of the smithy's new friend.

Summary
Kakariko City is a bustling coastal city, home to entrepreneurs, CEOs, local tech companies, artists, and every sort of person you could imagine, including criminals. The local criminal underground houses a considerable sum of criminals, and gang activity is simply a day-to-day occurrence.
The most notorious of these gangs is a crew with nine known members called the Chain. The Chain is known by the public as the crew who consistently fails overly-elaborate heists on hilariously small targets. To the criminal underground, however, they are the most prominent enemy of the Yiga gang and the most dangerous crew on this side of Hyrule. Each member of the Chain is known to have their own unique set of skills, and when they choose to get along, those who get in their way know them to be an unstoppable force. Some even say they have connections to the mafia.
What many don’t know is where these infamous criminals came from, so settle down, and I will tell you the tale of how this crew came to be.

Summary
Their smithy is a little strange, a little mischievous, a little feral, but it’s fine, because he’s their brother.
After all, he's a hero, and every hero was strange in their own way. These are all perfectly normal consequences of an adventure or three... right?
