   Summary

   Inside of a strange, damp crypt, a boy awakens with no memory to his name and a strange familiar whisper urging him to save a kingdom that no longer exists.

    

   Novelization of Breath of the Wild with my own liberties taken, and my own takes on many of the events and memories that unfold over the story's course. New things added, some things taken away, some things changed.
   Currently being reworked because I'm not entirely happy with it so far
