    Summary

    After four adventures Link had already lost too many people. After his fifth, he lost another. When the fissures connecting Hyrule and Lorule closed, both their heroes mourned. Then a new fissure appeared.

    This is a story about the development of Link and Ravio’s relationship, both platonic and romantic, as they both settle into a quieter life and come to terms with what they have endured. Together, perhaps the scars of their pasts will not just fade but heal.

    While the Link featured in this is based on Legend from Linked Universe, LU will not actually happen. It will likely go beyond when he would have joined the chain, so you can think of this as a what-if Link got to retire instead of becoming Legend.

    Summary

    After Ganondorf's siege on Hyrule seven years prior, (Y/N), a resilient and kind Hylian has been doing her best to live a quiet life in Kakariko Village. But things take a turn when she crosses paths with Link, the Hero of Time himself. What starts as an unexpected meeting quickly turns into a close bond, and maybe even something more. Her world is thrown into chaos, adventure, and more. Together, they travel across Hyrule to save the princess, protect their home, and stand against the darkness threatening everything they know. This story follows the events of Ocarina of Time with a few twists and touches from the manga. So things aren't going to be one to one with the game. This is a years old passion project that is reimagining familiar moments through the eyes of someone who was never meant to be part of the legend, but has the chance to change everything.
