    Summary

    He is all you have.

    You’ve known this fact for such a long time that it resonates in your very bones. Funny, how odd it feels to have bones again. But as you stand before him, descending in a beam of light, born anew from triumph as he was, but minus the scars, all you can ask him is, “Do you really remember me?”

    --- Part 1 contains slight Tears of the Kingdom spoilers. Part 2 contains major spoilers for pretty much the entire game. ---

    Summary

    A ghost told Link a story once. In this story, everyone died on a burning field.

    There were two survivors –– the lovelorn princess and her battered knight, cursed in cruel mercy to a century in purgatory and a memory so shattered and broken that it was impossible to put the shards back where they fit.

    He learned atop the Temple of Time, the dilapidated ruins where his ancestors’ ancestors’ ancestors once stood, that Hyrule had sustained itself on nothing more than stories for ten thousand years. Evil collected underneath the marble floors of Hyrule Castle for centuries. Hyrule had almost unlimited time to find a way to stop it, and yet they waited for two characters out of a fable to save them. Why was anyone surprised when the myth couldn’t sustain itself? Salvation is not the job of two children, regardless of the lofty titles placed over their heads.

    But this isn’t a story about a knight. It’s not a story about a princess. This is a story about the aftermath of stories.

    This is, ostensibly, a story about a dog.

    Link, Zelda, and a never-ending story.

    Summary

    Nat is waiting for Misty when she comes home, with news of another break-in. Misty makes sure to look shocked and confused when she says, “Oh, no!” and closes the front door behind her. “That’s awful.” Then, smiling wide, she holds up a bag of take-out. “Hungry? You can tell me what you found over dinner.”

    or, Misty stages a series of burglaries to get Nat's attention, and it absolutely works. Eventually.
