    Summary

    It's been months since the princess of Hyrule married the once-king of the Gerudo, beginning a new and uncertain chapter of history. To some, it brings hope; to others, it's an blasphemy they yearn to erase. To Zelda, it's alternately dream and nightmare.

    Until, impossibly, she awakens.

    (sequel to 'the blue light' and 'allow the ground to find its brutal way to me'.)

    Summary

    Nabooru's devotion to her king, her home, and her people are put to the test when a second war threatens to finish what the first one started. Ganondorf puts Nabooru, his best and most efficient agent, on the front lines to instigate what ought to be left alone. But the infamous Sheikah Slayer can only do so much of his bidding before it takes its toll on her - and on the one she loves. To follow through or to rise against, Nabooru must learn to take her fate in her own hands if she has any hope of bringing peace to the desert - and to herself.

    A/N: The non-con tag applies only to chapter 9, where the act is mentioned, but graphic details are omitted.

    Summary

    It has been 100 years since anyone has seen a champion. There are rumors that have spread throughout the land of what exactly happened to them. Did they fall in battle? Did they run away together? Did they lose themselves to corruption? Whatever the answer may be, the state of Hyrule has been shaky ever since their disappearance. The story goes that the Princess was able to seal away the Calamity, hold it at bay before its metamorphosis that would have ended Hyrule altogether. But the Calamity’s influence is felt throughout the kingdom regardless. Monsters plague the land, ancient technology has started to turn against its creators. As the years have gone by, the Princess’s grip on her powers has begun to loosen, and the world needs the Champions more now than they ever did before. Our story begins in a pool of water, in a dark room, with a voice calling to you. “Open your eyes. Wake up.” The water begins to drain, you open your eyes. Where are you? Who are you? And who are these people lying next to you?

    Summary

    A rebellion has risen in the sun kissed Gerudo Valley, and tensions are rising as King Hyrule accepts an unprecedented request from an unlikely suitor for his daughter, all for the betterment of the kingdom of Hyrule. With his power and her wisdom, the kingdom should be at peace at last if this union can come together.

    "The world blurred around him. Her eyes were the only thing he could see clearly. He felt a burn in his chest, but not from anger or hatred like he expected. Without thought, he smiled at her. She was intrigued looking at the foreign stranger. He watched as her eyes couldn't release their hold on him, she was like a siren leading him to his death. She was enchanting. Intoxicating. Transcendental. Which made him want to cause a reaction in her."

    "His golden eyes were dark and ominous, full of anguish and fury. Why her? Were the goddesses punishing her? His fangs bared over his lush lips, the blood dripping off his mouth. The Triforce glowed brightly as he panted with exertion. "My bride..." he choked out weakly. "Do you love me?" Her eyes wet with unshed tears as she drew the strength to utter her response..."

    Summary

    With the Calamity imminent and looming on the horizon, the provinces of Hyrule are working together to prepare for what could potentially be the apocalypse. While the Sheikah have begun unearthing their ancient machines and choosing their Champions, there are also efforts into researching the mysterious Zonai people. Their ruins may hold the key for safeguarding the world.
    An expedition into the heart of Faron reveals that not only are there many more Zonai ruins than expected, but these "ruins" are still occupied. The world is thrown into disarray, and now Hyrule has to get used to the presence of a new (but old) group who seem to know more than they are letting on.

    A pre-Calamity canon divergence story where Link is Zonai and there's a good Ganondorf :)

    Summary

    “I do not make this offer lightly, Princess. I am not fond of sharing, much less of something so hard fought for. But I believe our joining will be one of great fortune, for myself as well as you. Power and Wisdom aligned at long last.”

    His hand, so close to her own. An offering of peace. An offering to save her people, to be the shield that they need. All she has to do is say yes.

    “You are asking me to marry you."

    By the will of the Great Goddesses, Zelda survives her attempt to save Midna's life and finds herself with no choice but to ally with Hyrule's greatest and most dangerous enemy. Ganondorf claims he has no desire to rule over ashes but he remains as enigmatic as ever, haunted by the ghost of a past he refuses to speak of. Hyrule needs a strong hand to guide it, to make it better, to judge it for the sins it was built on and teach it to repent, and its true king has arrived, with his gentle queen by his side. Together, the unlikely pair must right the mistakes that came before them and try to create a better future.

    And maybe along the way, they can find healing in each other.

    Summary

    Do you know what syncretism is? To put it simply, in this specific case you will find that it is when two myths are so old and so similar that they are merged together. Knowing this now, would you realise that the tapestry of the First Calamity depicts not one hero but two? Two Heroes of Courage, their stories syncretised, the tapestry a warning for the one who would come next. The gods do love the number three after all.
    You will know well the stories of the Warrior who came second and the Champion who came third, but you will not know the story of the Warden who came first. A boy burdened with memories of past lives and the fate of the world on his shoulders - there is a long and hard battle to be fought, and wheels to set into motion so that one day, in another life, the cycle will end.

    or

    Retelling the story of the Hero 10,000 years before Breath of the Wild & a Linked Universe fic.

    Summary

    *being rewritten*

    It had happened faster than he could fight back.

    The Imperial Knight of Hyrule, sworn as Princess Zelda's sole protector, had failed to save her.

    Now he was on the run.

    -----

    Link Imperial, the teenage son of the Wolf Hero's Imperially-managed descendants who are somehow both man and wolf, was now hiding from the kingdom he was destined to save. All because of the missing power of Princess Zelda the Hylia-Knows-What-Number. While doing what seemed to be the simplest of his required duties, he'd stumbled upon a dark secret of a broken family.

    And by Hylia and the Golden Goddesses above, he was going to fight that secret and win; whether that meant continuing to hide it, or scream it to the world.

    It was high time that the atrocities that occurred behind Triforce covered tapestries came to Hylia's golden light. No matter the personal cost.

    Summary

    Zelda's been haunted since childhood, possessed unpredictably by a spirit that nobody can communicate with or exorcise, that drains her energy every time it tries to seize control. It's killing her. Every avenue for help within Hyrule has been exhausted, and Zelda's nearly made peace with her own death when a messenger arrives from the king of the Gerudo - who nobody had even known of the existence of. He claims that if she's brought to him in the desert, he can save her.

    For a price.

    Summary

    Disaster has been averted and Aeris and Ganondorf return to the desert with newly signed trade agreements that will secure trade with Hyrule and the future of the Gerudo.

    But, there is still so much left to do and so many lessons to learn.

    Tensions rise as Aeris and Ganondorf learn that there is more to ruling a nation than leading its people and more is expected of them than they realize.

    Details about Aeris’ past come to light and everything she thinks she knows is turned on its head and the return of a familiar face complicates things more than anyone was prepared for.

    Aeris takes these hurdles in stride, but there’s only so much a person can take before they break.

    (The direct sequel to In the Shadow of the Colossus)

    Summary

    Time-traveling shenanigans are the worst in Link's opinion, in ALL Link's opinion. But hey, at least they have their friends to keep them company in these trying times. The problem is, the princesses and extra friends make for a much larger group that the Links cannot take care of properly. And all of that chaos while trying to find a way home, oh joy.

    Not Linked Universe, it simply helped me develop and differentiate mine from jojo's. All Links are my own interpretations of the 12 canon Links to date.
    The Zeldas are here too as well as a close companion/LI for each Link, making a group of 36. Idk why I did this, multiple POVs, groups and settings. First chapter is a list of characters, not plot relevant.

    Updates whenever possible, most likely on Fridays.
