    Summary

    Hyrule's royal family has been overthrown, and the surviving bloodline was hidden away.

    Generations later, a new Hero must emerge to face the darkness that rises once again. Only, his first task isn't to guard or serve a princess, but to find her in the first place. His travels will take him across an unfamiliar Hyrule, meeting unfamiliar people and fighting unfamiliar monsters.

    A little much for a young man who begins his mornings with a staring contest against a cucco.

    This is an Original Legend within the Legend of Zelda Universe. It is intended to be canon-compliant, with a few theories that will be treated as fact. Enjoy at your own risk.

    Link discovers his body after seven years of skipped puberty. Indeed, it was giving him signals that he couldn't ignore. (For the sake of this oneshot, Link is 18 years old.)

    Summary

    "All interactions with the Hero of Time are to be kept to a minimum. He must not be distracted from his goals to save Hyrule. Do not interfere with the Hero."

    As the Guide of Time, Sheik followed the instructions of the goddesses and Impa as they were given, for he would much rather be spared Din's Wrath in consequence of meddling with the cryptic plans of the Golden Goddesses. But after Sheik finds Link bleeding out in the entrance of Kakariko Village, he is left with no choice but to help the Hero of Time recover from a fatal attack.

    Unknown to him, one tiny ripple with the pillars of fate can change the entire outcome of a journey.

    Both good and bad.

    Title is from Hometown by Twenty One Pilots.

    Summary

    “There’s a man in the woods.” The children murmur. It was Mido who had discovered him first. Saria had been in the Sacred Meadows, her music echoing through the woods, when the sound of footsteps began to join them. The footsteps were not light, like those of the Kokiri, nor did they jingle, like those of the Skull Kids. Rather, they were deep, leaves crunched under their steps, cracking like bones, and Mido knew that he knew his way.

    ---
    Link comes back to Kokiri Forest after the Forest Temple, and maybe it's time for Mido to finally give an apology he's been waiting to give, seven years late.

    Summary

    It's easier than it should be to take the constant, quiet presence of the Hero of Time for granted. Zelda decides she won't stand for that anymore, and finds a way to repay the devotion another version of her slighted in the future-past.

    As one might have guessed, this winds up looking much like how she slighted him in the first place. But this time, Link doesn't mind... and Zelda gets something out of it, too.

    Summary

    Link comes across an unconscious Kafei just minutes before Termina's destruction. This anachronism disrupts the flow of time and its preceding events. Kafei had no purpose to be at Clock Tower the third night, or so Link thought, while Kafei believes he's seen the Hero before. Mayor Dotour's son cannot recall his memories of him.

    They're left to pick up the pieces. In the end, Link attains an understanding of "grown-up" matters after all. (Link/Kafei) (Kafei/Anju)

    Summary

    Re-telling of Breath of the Wild. Pre and Post- Calamity from Zelda and Link's perspectives, respectively.

    Link wakes up in a Post-Calamity world with visions of a beautiful princess that he once knew. As memories come back to him, he wrestles with feelings he once had for her, saving Hyrule, and becoming the Hero everyone claims he once was.

    In the Pre-Calamity world, Zelda worries that she won't be strong enough to save Hyrule from the coming doom. She has a knight that won't stop following around and visions of his deaths she can't shake. Her soon-to-be betrothed: a pretentious man she can't stand. A father who doesn't believe in her. And the distinct feeling that the path she walks has already been laid out before her, no matter how she tries to stray from it.

    How will the choices she makes now affect the fate of those around her, and her own?

    Summary

    "Link, we don't know the half of what you can do or why you can do it. Normally, S.H.I.E.L.D. doesn't like that. But, what intelligence we do have on you suggests you care about people. We have a potentially world-ending threat on our hands. Please, we can't fight Loki. He's out of our league. That's your specialty."

    Or

    This is book one of a retelling of the MCU with one major change: Link is reborn into the world to become a hero in a world quickly starting to fill with heroes. He must find a way to balance the events happening all around him (Loki, The Avengers, Ultron, even Thanos) with his personal mission: stop Ganon from destroying and remaking the world. New friendships form, old ones are rekindled, danger and darkness threatens the world from more angles than thought possible. And through it all, the question on everyone's mind: what makes someone a hero?

    Summary

    Summary

    An unstable Kingdom with a grudge does little to protect those fighting for it, on either side of a bad war. Hyrule will do Link no favours when bad luck strikes... But Link won't give up on anyone he calls family, no matter the cost.

    And that means there's a price to be paid when it puts him on the wrong side.
