  Summary

  Waking from the shrine of Resurrection 100 years after the Great Calamity, Link is thrown into a life he doesn't remember. He expected to complete a quest he isn't sure he can do. Is he even the Hero of Hyrule if he failed the first time he was supposed to fight?
  Link is lost and his only hope is to follow guidance of those around him to find himself and complete this seemingly impossible task. Will he be able to complete it all by himself?
