   Summary

   After spending the summer in Hateno, Link and Zelda set out on their first journey together post-Calamity with three goals in mind: to assess the scope of the Calamity's damage, to see what was wrong with the divine beasts, and, hopefully, to mourn the fallen Champions. But navigating grief is complicated - both on its own, and in a new relationship.

   Takes place after the events of Breath of the Wild.
