Unskilled (L)Ink

It has been 100 years since the Calamity Ganon struck and spread its evil over the land of Hyrule. Link has just awoken from his 100 years of slumber and is told he needs to head to Hyrule Castle to save Princess Zelda and the rest of Hyrule. At first, Link was ready to save the day, and the kingdom, but as he progressed on his journey to regain his memories, he started to realize that saving the princess may not be the best idea. Link is unsure of how he feels about being thrust into this saving the world deal and doesn't know if he should continue with his destiny.

Confused on what he should do, Link turns to Impa and Paya for help on what it is to be a hero. Paya suggests Link keeps a journal of his travels and see if maybe the people he comes across would be worth saving, alongside saving Princess Zelda. At first Link is unsure of the whole writing thing, but deciding he has nothing better to do, other than saving the kingdom, so he decides to record all of the new memories that he's making. Link also has the question of should it be up to him to save the people of Hyrule when they have done nothing for themselves in the past 100 years to change their fate? Should Link go off and try to do his own thing and just leave the fate of the world to be destroyed by Calamity Ganon? Will Link go on to be the Chosen Hero and wield the sword that seals the darkness? All of these are valid questions for Link as he struggles with his inner turmoil and trying to be the Chosen Hero everyone claims he is.

Author's Note: This is a retelling of "The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild" game. The story will follow the game play up to a certain point. This story is more based off how I played the game and a lot of Link's thoughts, feelings, and actions are based on how I felt. If you have not played the game, proceed with extreme caution.
