Summary
Cia’s War of Ages has far-reaching consequences for residents of Skyloft as they face invasion from a distant time. But when the battle comes, where are Link and Zelda of Skyloft? (Pre-LU, but strongly hinted, especially Warriors. The Captain might force his way into making an appearance.)

The Frigid Peaks Of Madness by OrcusNoir
Fandoms: The Legend of Zelda & Related Fandoms, Linked Universe - Fandom
11 Jun 2025
Tags
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
Sky never cried. Never yelled. Never snapped. He was calm, polite—eerily steady. The others thought he was just emotionally controlled. But Sky wasn’t like them. He was the first. From a time before evolution trimmed instincts and stilled the body. His ears still moved with every feeling—twitching, perking, drooping—and no one noticed. Not until one night, when his ears sagged low and silent, and the Chain finally realized: he hadn’t been hiding his emotions. They just hadn’t known how to read them.
Or: Sky's ears are severely outdated in the Chains opinion.

Summary
Sky grew up in the air—back on Skyloft, falling meant flying. But here, without his Loftwing, it means something else entirely. Twilight learns just how little Sky understands about that truth the hard way.

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
“Hi there.” He waves. From Sky’s lap, Four shyly waves back, before bringing their fingers to their mouth, that is until Sky brings them back down with soft apologies and even softer touches. “What are you coloring?” Time asks. Four weakly shrugs, not wanting to speak.
OR
Four feels little again, at least this time their favorite people are with them.

Fandoms: The Legend of Zelda & Related Fandoms

Yet, even if he tried, there was no way he was able to muster but a few steps without falling to his knees and crying out from the sharp sting.
OR

The Domestication of Wild Things by Foxtrotx
Fandoms: The Legend of Zelda & Related Fandoms, Linked Universe - Fandom
23 Apr 2025
Tags
Summary
Dogs were once wolves. Transformed over time by heavy Hylian hands, domestication blunted their fangs and soothed their wild nature. They became docile, and unwilling to speak out. Wild wasn't a dog, but that didn't mean the metaphor affected him any less. After a lifetime of servitude and silence, it was only natural that his sharp edges had been smoothed, his spirit dimmed.
Eight other heroes won't change his life so quick, but they can certainly nudge him in the right direction.
Or, another chain meets Wild fic, but Wild is much less 'wild'.

22 Apr 2025
Tags
Summary
“Guys, I’m going to go.” Legend immediately snipped, his voice now light and detached, as he was starting to feel out of breath, even if he hadn’t moved in the slightest. He didn’t wait for a second longer before exiting the room and beginning his search.
OR
The boys play a game to spend time on a slow day. Led by intuition and caution, Legend realizes that something doesn't feel right.

Summary
The absence of the familiar comfort is deeply felt, but it's hard to find a safe place to do it on the road. By himself, he could clear out a burrow somewhere and ward the doors, but he can't just wander off on his own anymore. For all that being with the Chain affords him a level of safety he's never experienced before, it also means hiding things.
A lot of things.
(or: Touch-starved, touch-averse Hyrule finds a suitable compromise. Too bad he can't tell anyone about it.)
(or: Or: 2 times Hyrule enjoys (platonically) being tied up, 1 time he really, really doesn't, 1 time he sort of remembers how to, and 1 time he talks about it)

Summary
“We never had cloud season on Skyloft,” Sky says in reply. “Being above the clouds and all. I experienced it for the first time when I came down to the surface. You can imagine I was not prepared to see them decorating the ground.”
Four hums quietly. “Cloud season?” He asks. “What do you mean?”
Sky hesitates. “The clouds?” He says, releasing his free hand from his blanket prison to point directly out the window. He does not think he could be clearer if he tried. “On the ground? Where they aren’t normally?”
The smithy furrows his brow and tilts his head. “Do you mean the snow?”

(aka four and sky are sick. they also have different opinions on what snow is) -

“Give that back.” Warriors hissed as he snatched it out of Legend’s hand, his face indefinitely red and burning. Legend took that to a slight offense, leaping back as he held both hands up in a mocked surrender.

“What?” Legend breathed. He wasn’t being that mean.
“Out. Now.” He pointed to the door, his movements stiff and articulate.
OR
Legend accidentally finds something for Warriors without knowing that he had actually hid it himself, with the rest of his past. Legend also accidentally sends Warriors spiraling.
