Summary
A ghost told Link a story once. In this story, everyone died on a burning field.
There were two survivors –– the lovelorn princess and her battered knight, cursed in cruel mercy to a century in purgatory and a memory so shattered and broken that it was impossible to put the shards back where they fit.
He learned atop the Temple of Time, the dilapidated ruins where his ancestors’ ancestors’ ancestors once stood, that Hyrule had sustained itself on nothing more than stories for ten thousand years. Evil collected underneath the marble floors of Hyrule Castle for centuries. Hyrule had almost unlimited time to find a way to stop it, and yet they waited for two characters out of a fable to save them. Why was anyone surprised when the myth couldn’t sustain itself? Salvation is not the job of two children, regardless of the lofty titles placed over their heads.
But this isn’t a story about a knight. It’s not a story about a princess. This is a story about the aftermath of stories.
This is, ostensibly, a story about a dog.
Link, Zelda, and a never-ending story.

Summary
The best she can figure out is that ERROR 1412214 is a combination of ERROR 910482 and ERROR 0394024. ERROR 910482 is a problem with the recursive function that operates the vision and zoom systems of the Divine Beast, and ERROR 0394024 means Vah Ruta is low on battery.
She thinks.
That last word either means battery, or bird shit.
Maybe she should go get Purah.
Zelda, Link, and Sidon try their hand at debugging code and/or ghostbusting.

Summary
After Purah and Robbie take Link, after the rain washes Link’s blood off of Zelda’s fingers, after the dying morass of Guardians stop flashing pink and blue beside her, after Zelda watches in hollow silence as a bladed rhino beetle slowly crawls from a muddy puddle, the voice speaks again.
What will you do now, Your Grace?
Zelda jumps.
Oh no. She forgot about the sword.
The Sword and the Vessel take a road trip through the end of the world.
