"Ganondorf Dragmire - the tyrant that usurped the Hyrulean throne from the Lost Royal Family seventeen years ago; the cruel dictator that has had his troops terrorize small villages and drag villagers to his arena, in the outskirts of Hyrule Castle, for roughly ten years; the twisted ruler that's forced his citizens to fight to the death in his arena solely for his entertainment. He's a monster." Zelda Hark is just a regular girl, living in a backwards agricultural village, safe from the clutches of Dragmire - or so she thinks. Before she knows it, her life is turned upside when Dragmire invades her village, captures her, separates her from her parents, and throws her into the jail cells, forcing her to wait for her death in the arena. Along the way, she has to decide which she prefers - green eyes or blue... [[NOW COMPLETE]] 03/11/17 ----- 10/06/17 Zelink Dystopia All rights go to Nintendo, and all rights on the plot go to me.

When the three goddesses of the Triforce unintentionally grant the Princess of Hyrule the Triforce of Power, and the evil locked away from the world the Triforce of Wisdom, everything is in chaos as it was before, only it's the princess this time who's causing the trouble. Zelda had been power hungry for years. Years before the mark of the Triforce of Power appeared on the back of her hand, she'd always thrown fits if something didn't go her way. Now, at only seventeen and fully gifted with the Triforce of Power, she made sure things went her way, and her way only. Ganondorf had escaped the Sacred Realm somehow, and returns to the Gerudo Village in peace. Accidentally blessed with the Triforce of Wisdom, he acknowledges the Gerudo's hard work and thrives to make his village a better place for everyone. Link, still possessing the Triforce of Courage, has been assigned to be Zelda's personal bodyguard and do something horribly wrong to please her majesty, which he does not partake in ever doing. Fate brings Link and Ganondorf face to face. Somehow, Link and Ganondorf team up and secretly plot against the princess to stop her vile plans to make Hyrule miserable. After all, it was Courage and Wisdom who saved Hyrule all those times before, right? •• [Post OoT; Before the events of TP] The Legend of Zelda belongs to Nintendo.

((read whole description to know what you're getting into xD)) There is a secret hiding in the nation of Hyrule. For centuries this land has been a democracy, but few actually know just what is going on behind the scenes. What use are the old tales when no one even believes in magic anymore? Zelda is a girl who lives her life trapped within the walls of her family's mansion. She only leaves to go to school, and there she meets someone who will quite literally change her life forever. ((Please don't swear in my comment section. If you do, I'll delete it. Hate speech, swearing, and inappropriate comments will all be deleted.)) WARNING; This story has only been partially edited and I cringe to high heaven reading it. I don't mind you enjoying it, so I'll leave it up but don't judge my writing by this book. If you can't stand it, like me, please head on over to Raising the Stakes, which I have put much more time and effort into and is a million times better. The Legend of Zelda is (c) to Nintendo.

What could be better than to have your name recognized everywhere throughout the high seas? Nothing. At least until your life is troubled by a stowaway squirming his way onto your ship. Legend of Zelda (c) Nintendo This is my favorite fic I've written. It didn't take as long as the others, but it has a lot of action, and a LOT of fluff. I consider it my fluffiest book, but I'm just biased cause I love it so much xD -- I've been getting more and more annoyed, so I'll say it here in the descriptions. Please don't swear in my comment section. If you do, I'll delete it. Hate speech, swearing, and inappropriate comments will all be deleted. Whoo, enjoy ;) Started 2/1/16 Finished 3/28/16

Link was born with memories of one of his soul's past adventures, with his only clue as to why being the last words he heard Zelda say: to break the cycle, once and for all. Zelda, however, was reborn as usual, only to be raised by none other than the dreaded Ganondorf. Years have passed since he stole the throne from her real father and renamed her Kalia, hoping to throw off the Hero of Time. So why hasn't he reigned terror on the world yet? When Link finally finds Zelda, they, of course, embark on their own journey - only to find that they may be doing more harm than good. Will they be able to break the cycle before "they" do? DISCLAIMER: I do not own the Legend of Zelda characters, settings, or anything like that. This is just a work done by a fan, for other fans. All rights go to its original owners. The cover is not mine either, though I would love to know who it belongs to. They did an amazing job. Based off of my oneshot, Unbroken.
