Summary
The first time, we pass it right by.
The second time, we pass right by it – only this time, I’m suddenly startled out of a sound sleep.
The third time, there’s a clenching in my lungs that I can’t shake.
The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again expecting a different result.

Summary
Grace set down the bowl he had been mixing things in and walked over to Simon, whose chopped vegetables were coming out in very uneven slices due to a combination of shaking hands and blurry vision.
“Are you feeling alright…?” Grace reached his hand up in an attempt to feel Simon’s forehead.
Simon flinched. Like, full on, jumped backwards and pointed the knife in Grace’s direction. His leg muscles tightened as if he was preparing to run, but whether it was away from or towards Grace, he wasn’t sure.
--
Simon wanted nothing more to prove he could be helpful.
Every step of the way was a battle.

Summary
When Grace gets seemingly teleported by means unknown into the SM-13 right as it was nearing The Light, both Simon and Grace have no idea what is happening. Grace knows he was supposed to be in his house on Erid, Simon knows this new guy cannot possibly be a hallucination, and Ava, upon hearing Grace ramble about theories for how he got there, knows that new guy is Smart. Could-Secure-Our-Survival Smart.
She orders Simon to bring Grace back to the surface, and thus begins Grace's ordeal in a starless universe.- Language:

Summary
At the end of an age of myths and monsters, King Rhoam has unified the domains of Hyrule into a great kingdom. The peace is shattered when a massive man encased in armor enters the castle and offers a game to the court – one of their number may strike him, but he will return the attack when the sun sets on the longest day. Link, a knight whose talents are wasted in an era blessed by light, gladly takes the sword offered by the mysterious stranger and rises to the challenge. Months later, when he ventures forth into the verdant summer to fulfill his end of the bargain, Link begins to realize that he may never again return to Hyrule.

Summary
Almost twenty years after the new Queen of Hyrule banished the Gerudo King, her country is devastated in a fiery cataclysm, driving Hylian refugees to the desert for shelter.
Ganondorf would rather piss glass than help his enemies, but certain old promises haunt him - along with certain new ghosts.
