The Frigid Peaks Of Madness by OrcusNoir
Fandoms: The Legend of Zelda & Related Fandoms, Linked Universe - Fandom
26 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
Apotheosis; noun. an ultimate form; to deify.
Nine heroes, spread across time and space, brought together to serve a divine purpose. They don't have much in common— nothing good, anyway. In fact, all they share is a name and a tragedy or two (or three... or four...). Still, they're Links— they won't be dissuaded so easily, no matter the challenges. And boy, there are a lot of those...
A story of nine Links, their loved ones, and those who were left behind. A story of love, loss, and all the spaces in between. A story that, despite everything, will make itself told.

Summary
Warriors was a paranoid man.
It was inevitable, after the War of Eras, where there were constant whispers over his shoulders, knives pointed at his back, poisons in his cup, hands running possessively up and down his skin. He’d had a country to protect, a goddess’ blessing to honor, a royal family’s expectations to meet, and a love-sick sorcerer to defeat, not to mention three kids following him around like ducklings through it all. He’d done his best to shield them from the horrors of war, from the crushing responsibility being thrusted upon their too thin, too young shoulders.
He hadn’t quite succeeded, but he’d done his best.
So, when Wild starts acting strangely—lashing out at the other heroes, freezing and getting himself hurt in battle, even losing his customary impulsivity to turn secretive and sullen, writing day and night in that little notebook of his—Warriors recognizes the ingredients of budding betrayal. He's willing to do anything to keep the others safe—and willing to do anything to save the young hero from himself. He's even willing to betray another hero's trust.

Summary
In the corner of his eyes, above the group he saw the Wizzrobe with its arms raised back, gathering up a giant ball of dark magic.
Legend tried to push the group apart, but at most, he got a couple of them to look up and another couple to duck and cover their heads. Both of which helped for nothing as the magic engulfed them.
But nothing seemed to happen.
-------------Currently:
(Warrior’s Chapter)
He didn’t let go at the sounds of Four’s muffled yells. He didn’t let go when Four took loud, long breaths. He didn’t let go when Four’s limbs flailed. He didn’t let go when Four’s body shook.
He only let go when Four stopped.------

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
To Four, Warriors is dangerous. Vio can see right through the ploy. Warriors displays himself as outgoing at heart and a pleasantly social person, yet underneath that, they know that there’s nothing but regret and other by-products of extremely unhealthy habits and patterns.
And now, it seems as if the mask is cracking and his fury is slipping away.
OR
Four decides to ask Warriors for some help in their studies, given that Warriors had always maintained top grades. Though, not everybody is perfect, and neither of them realized that until it was simply too late.

Summary
“Please don’t bite my head off," the Shadow drawled, rolling his eyes. "Let’s just try again. Okay. So here’s the deal. You have something I want. Clearly, I have something you want. Let’s just truce.”
“What do you have that I could possibly want?” Warriors spat.
The Shadow smirked. “Hands, my friend. I can get you out of there. You’re not looking too good, though. You considering losing the legs, or what?”
Warriors just snarled.
“Look, I’ll get you free. Minimal damage, and you can just walk away. That’s that. But I want you to tell me what you know about Link.”
---
Deep in a labyrinth underneath Twilight's Hyrule, Warriors gets separated due to a cave-in. Injured, trapped, and alone, he's got one last ally that he'd sooner rip his own face off than accept help from.

Summary
"Say goodbye, little hero," said the blademaster mockingly.
Legend's eyelids fluttered as he choked on another gout of blood.
That was the last thing Wild saw before a puff of white smoke, a flurry of scraps of red paper, and a sickening wrenching feeling as the Yiga teleported him away.---
When a Yiga clan ambush leaves Legend seriously wounded and Wild missing, the Chain sets out on a desperate quest to rescue their lost member before it's too late.

Summary
There was something Warriors was keeping from him, and even though he told Time they would talk about it later, it's been starting to feel as though 'later' would never happen. And with the new era they'd been dropped into, how dangerous the magic in the forest felt and how the nearby town had been dealing with strange disappearances, it seemed as though their conversation was just going to keep getting pushed back.
At least until Time realizes that what Warriors refuses to tell him might have something to do with the bodies in the woods.
