    Summary

    The tale of the Hero of the Wild before the Calamity. However, there is a shift. Born into darkness and raised for a dark purpose, Dark escaped his hell and found light in Hylia's grace. Reborn as Link, he will do his duty with unwavering devotion. However, that is only for as long as the Yiga did not discover his survival and Hyrule never know his corruption. He is not an enemy but by appearance alone, he will be branded as one. Because of this, Link can never show who he really is to the world. He strived to be the Perfect Hero. But this devotion to his role clashed with the desperate Princess Zelda who detested that perfection over all else. As fate would have it, Link can never keep himself a secret to his Princess. What will Zelda do with the real him? Will she accept the unwillingly corrupted Hero? Or will she hunt him down as an enemy of Hyrule as he long feared?
