Summary
🧠Psychological Horror, 🌑Dark Fantasy, 🥀Tragic Hero Narrative / ⚔️Distopian Post Heroism
The once-golden hero of Hyrule has become a ghost of legend, chained in a forgotten cell deep beneath Ganondorf’s dominion. Link, now sits broken — body starved, spirit shattered. Days of torment have turned his silence into surrender.
When the Rito warrior, Teba, is dragged into the cell, wounded and desperate for his lost son — the young, bright-eyed Tulin — the last ember of resistance flares in Link’s chest. But it is not enough. Not against the cold sneer of a tyrant who has already won. Not against the cruel truth whispered with every visit: Link failed. And because of him, hope died screaming.
