The Frigid Peaks Of Madness by OrcusNoir
Fandoms: Linked Universe - Fandom, Linked Universe - jojo56830 (Webcomic)

Summary
The Chain had a simple task before them: Hunt the black blood monsters that were attacking farms in the north before winter sets in, saving countless lives in the process.
Little did they know that this simple quest of theirs would turn out to be a waking nightmare as a conspiracy begins to unravel before their very eyes.
Soon the Chain will learn why Legend's timeline is in downfall, and why Hyrule's era is the way that it is.
(A mostly Legend-centric story that tells the tale of the downfall of the Downfall Timeline. It wasn't just the Fallen Hero that caused it all, no, it was something far greater than that. A conspiracy, a cult, and a plan to save the world that went horribly, horribly wrong.)

Summary
En busca de un nuevo peligro que amenazaba con asaltar el Hyrule de Time, la cadena se adentró en las profundidades del Bosque Perdido guiados por su líder, quien abría el camino a través de la oscuridad. Sin embargo, lo que no se esperaron es que a veces el peligro podía estar más cerca de lo que pensaban. Podía estar en el árbol más cercano, en la flor solitaria que yacía a sus pies, en la brizna de hierba que se veía ligeramente sospechosa.
Quién sabe, incluso quizá (solo quizá) podía estar en la forma de sus propios pasos. En el aire que les rozaba la cara. En la oscuridad de sus propias sombras.
No sabían si estaba justo de pie delante suyo. O vigilándolos mientras dormían. O hablándoles usando palabras que de alguna manera se sentían en la voz incorrecta.
Era difícil de creer que incluso podía estar mirándolos fijamente con la mirada que solía ser azul.

The Absent Blue of Your Gaze by amayis_bigtower

Summary
In search of a new danger that threatened to assault Time’s Hyrule, the chain walked into the deep Lost Woods, guided by their leader who opened the path through the darkness. What they didn’t expect, though, is that the danger might sometimes be closer than they think. It might be in the nearest tree, in the flower that stands alone at their feet, in the blade of grass that looks slightly suspicious.
Who knows, it could even maybe —just maybe— be in the shape of their own footsteps. In the wind that lightly hits their faces. In the darkness of their own shadows.
They don’t know if it's standing right next to them. Or watching them in their sleep. Or talking to them using words that feel somehow in the wrong voice.
It’s hard to believe that it could even be staring directly at their eyes with the gaze that used to be blue.

The Two Deities of Soul and Time by Moonlit_Crow87

Summary
What if Link and Zelda remembered their past lives? What if they knew each other before birth, when they were still spirits? What if they were Hylia's favorites? What if they were twins? What if they met the chain? What if they were gods? What if they knew Ganondorf and was his friend? What if they wanted to break the cycle? What if they went back in time multiple times to guide their previous incarnations? What if they had control over Time and Soul? What if they mutated their blood? What if, that's the question. Will they be able to hide the truth from the chain or will the truth come out one way or another.
Hylia and the golden three were pissed, yes they had fun using the Tri-force to create chaos and had fun watching mortals scramble trying to face Demise and his reincarnations. What they didn't appreciate was the state the world was in. It was in ruins and nothing was left alive. They used their abilities and set the world back to the beginning. Though for more fun entertainment they chose the latest reincarnations of the hero, the princess, and demise to be gods. They all rule over their own domains. Time, Soul, Dimension.

Summary
Sometimes the information about a crewmate is never enough, especially not someone so young (or so damaged) as Wild. Link didn't want to be the one on site when he experienced uncontrolled rage--
But there is no one more capable of handling it in the Kingdom than him: another, far more experienced Deity all his own.

Summary
You see, Four had seen his fair share of giant spiders before as a minish, meaning that they actually were regular normal spiders that seemed gigantic because of Four’s minish size, but really weren't.
These ones, though? Oh, these ones were the real deal— actual huge ass spiders.
The Smithy had heard the Old Man yell the name ‘Skulltula’ in between all the chaos, which meant that they weren't just regular giant spiders, but actually giant monster spiders. Fantastic.
Had it been the one giant monster spider, Four reckons they would've been OK. However, as he got closer to the Old Man and the Sailor— who was aggressively ripping off the remnants of the spider web still stuck to his clothes— Four's lantern was able to illuminate the entire dungeon room and–
Oh.
Oh.
OR: Four, Wind and Time accidentally make everyone's lives even more difficult.

Summary
“Is everything alright? I saw you run off earlier.” Time asked, though there was no reply, as though Twilight didn’t even register the other man’s existence.
“Are you hurt?” Time pressed on, hoping that the invitation of a conversation may help with Twilight’s sudden silence.
Yet, there was nothing.Time fixed his jaw in frustration, stifling its predominance. He knew that Twilight was hurting in some way. Twilight was always extremely well spoken, receiving multitudes of praise and compliments for his outstandingly considerate usage of words and his constant politeness. Never was there silence.
OR
Time accidentally does something that upsets Twilight greatly, he doesn't realize his mistake until much after. He also doesn't realize that the damage was already done.

Summary
Mid-August.
Not only was it the only time of year in which the sun shined the brightest, but also when everyone was off to themselves. Legend finally saw the light as he was no longer buried under his finals and could finally read his textbooks without blurred vision from his tears. Everything made so much more sense!
The Chain spends their summer on an old-fashioned road trip! Shenanigans ensue :)

Summary
Time nearly dropped the phone.
”Warriors?”
Despite eight years of radio silence, he recognized his younger brother’s voice. He used to sound just like that when he told off other kids on the playground for being unfair by not letting him take a turn on the swings.
"Nothing is wrong," Warriors said firmly. "My younger brother was exaggerating. I apologize for bothering you. Good night."
"Wait-"
OR:
Time hasn't heard from his little brothers since their dad kicked him out on his eighteenth birthday. But when he gets a panicked phone call from a kid claiming to be his third brother and learns some very worrying things, not even Warriors' promises can stop him from getting involved.
But when Time shows up to confront their father, he's long gone.
With Legend painfully defensive at every turn, Warriors in deep denial about their abandonment, and Hyrule, a new baby brother he never even knew existed, Time's life is about to take a difficult turn. He's not at all prepared for taking care of three kids, and is haunted by guilt from the past and anxiety for the future.
But no matter what troubles they bring, Time will never abandon his brothers the way their father did. -

Summary
“Do you think I could become a doctor one day?” Hyrule asked, voice full of curiosity.
“If you study hard and never give up, then sure!” Time replied. “You can be anything you want.”
Legend rolled his eyes, grumbling something under his breath.
Four trails near behind Legend, internally noting on the hitch in his gait. “You seem bothered.” They blurted out.
“No shit.”
Four winced, “No, I mean you aren’t yourself. Are you doing alright?”
OR
Time figures it's best to take Hyrule, Legend, and Four to the hospital to fix their spotty (and nonexistent) medical records. Of course, this is easier said than done. Because there was one extremely important thing that Time had completely forgotten about.

Summary
The Chain finds themselves caught in a brutal ambush while exhausted from days of travel. Wind, eager to prove himself and tired of being treated like the “youngest,” fights fiercely alongside the others. But despite his efforts, he’s overlooked by his comrades, who are too focused on the larger battle. As the enemies begin to retreat, Wind climbs a ridge to intercept them—but just as he’s about to make a move, a massive boulder tumbles down, crushing him beneath its weight.
How will he deal with this? What happens now?
