   Summary

   He cried as he watched his parents die over and over again. His life had changed forever, he tried to make it stop, but it seemed Hylia had a plan for this kid. One he was not allowed to flee from.

   Often people think they don’t have enough or simply too much time. But to him, time was a prison. When the world turned gray he only saw the time when his world changed from deadly reds and yellows of the flames of the silent and dark world he now roamed endlessly.

   Link had endless amount of time, he just didn’t want it.
