Written in Blood by bookworm6310

Written in Blood . {After OoT/MM fic} Hyrule is on the brink of another bloody war when he returns, the hero that had slipped away to be forgotten by the land. No longer a hero, living a life of isolation far away from the land that had made him a legend once. Resentful and broken, Link hides it best he can, trying to focus on the future and forget. But Zelda remembers him, the person he once was. He's so different now, and perhaps she is too. The whole land is, transformed by war as Ganondorf works to seize all that he believes once belonged to him, in a time no longer. Both Link and Zelda find themselves in the middle of this war, forced to fight and strategize and deal with their own inner demons as well as each other, amidst the war the Hylians fight to regain their land and defeat the King of Thieves. > < .

It has been five years since the defeat of Calamity Ganon. As Hyrule and its inhabitants strive to rebuild their once despoiled homeland, a new danger begins to awaken. With a potential threat begins to reveal itself, the Princess of Hyrule, Zelda, and the Hero of Hyrule, Link, descend down into the dark underground in search of answers. What they find though is much worse than they could have ever feared. On his own once more, it's up to Link to uncover the mysteries of the past and defend Hyrule once more. But with the sword that seals the darkness gone, Zelda missing, and his strength sapped away, can he even hope to prevail? A sequel to BOTW: The Lonely Knight (None of the artwork here is mine.

Fortune Favors the Courageous by wowimreallydoingthis

"Princess!" he yelled after her. "Where are you going?" "Back to the castle," she replied without stopping. "Not by yourself you're not!" "I'm sorry,"-she whipped around-"I didn't realize you were my father?" "Your father, the king, would execute me for letting you travel by yourself." "Oh, so this is about self-preservation?" "Yes. Yours. There are monsters all over Hyrule now, Your Highness." Blue eyes pointedly looked her up and down. "And by the looks of it, you're not equipped to handle that." She mirrored his scrutiny and scoffed. "What, and you are?" She gestured to the cairns beyond the trees. "Are you going to protect me as well as you protected them?" Calamity is upon Hyrule. The Goddess Hylia appointed but two children to prevent the end of the world. The powers they were promised don't come easily, and after years of outright failure, Princess Zelda can't help but wonder if Hylia chose wrong. It certainly doesn't help that the boy fate has tangled her with makes her seethe. Devotion, heartbreak, inadequacy. Faith, perseverance, and courage. This is a story of finding what lies within. [This story is set in a fusion of Breath of the Wild/Tears of the Kingdom, with a couple tweaks and some familiar faces'n'places from older games joining along the way!] Thank you for the #1 spot in the Zelda tag! 💗 And thank you for #1 in PrincessZelda, Zelink and BreathoftheWild tags!!

The Fate Of Hyrule by BushGremlin

Hyrule is in a deep peril... Although Link had gone back in time to warn the Princess of Hyrule about Ganondorf's true plans and what the future holds, it was not enough. A seven year war waged, the Gerudo-Hylian War, which ended with the Gerudo's success. Ganondorf became the new king of Hyrule, alongside his chosen queen, Zelda. The Hero Of Time ceased to exist after he died amongst the soldiers on the battle field. Those who object his rule are sentenced to a death penalty, and with the world becoming more and more unkind after ten long years, people are starting to lose hope. Even Her Majesty has begun to lose faith, that is until she got a closer look in a mysterious fellow (Oo, sooo mysterious~) named Shylo. She believes, with his help and optimism, they will be able to finally destroy The Demon King, Ganondorf. Unfortunately however, there is no one left to wield the master sword... or is there?... (This takes place after Ocarina Of Time) Warning: If you don't like reading long chapters, this book is not for you. Some chapters, of course, may be shorter than others or maybe even average length, but this book does contain various long chapters. Second Warning (the real warning): I am cynical and cruel (so cynical! So cruel!...). So, while I stray from erotic things, it will include some gore, foul language and vulgar implications, possible suicidal tendencies, domestic violence/abuse, possible child abuse, mania, and overall anything that I feel is necessary to complete a scene. Enjoy. :) Chapter One: 8,492 words Chapter Two: 8,854 words Chapter Three: 6,152 words Chapter Four: 4,936 words Chapter Five: 8,653 words Chapter Six: 8,334 words Chapter Seven: 9,083 words Chapter Eight: WIP Words so far: 54,486 Pages so far: 238-9?

The Hero, the Princess, and the Cursed King by HappyLlama160

For centuries the wielders of the Triforce have been trapped in a seemingly endless battle between good and evil. It's simple: the Hero and the Princess destroy the King of Darkness, restoring peace to the land. But what happens when they don't want that destiny? After tragedy strikes, Princess Zelda finds herself living in Gerudo Town, where Link and Ganondorf befriend her. Everything seems to be going well; there's even a possible romance between Link and Zelda. However, their happiness doesn't last long. With tensions rising with the Kingdom of Hyrule, it's only a matter of time before they face an all-out war. In the chaos, the last thing Link, Zelda, and Ganondorf want to deal with is the Triforce, but fate has other plans. Cover: @hey_itsshae

The Legend of Zelda: The Magician by kpoemsinger

Link being sent back in time didn't save Hyrule. Ganondorf is still refusing to give up his attempts to take over Hyrule and Link is tasked with finding a powerful magician to stop Ganondorf's advances. However, they're too late, and darkness sweeps over the land once again. Link and this magician must now save Hyrule and bring it back to the light by repeating what he had done before; cleanse all the sacred temples and put to rest the spirits of the six sages who guard them. Yet, Link can't help but feel that this magician is familiar to him; and, oddly alluring. But does the legendary hero have time to stop and think on his feelings for this tempting magician? Or will submitting to his feelings cause the land to be soaked in its hero's blood? ~~~~ ~ Watty's 2020 FanFiction winner! ~ Wattpad's Featured FanFic's Ambassadors Pick of 2025 at #1 in Fanfiction Ambassador's "The Ultimate Fanfic Anthology" under the chapter "Ambassadors Picks | January '25"! ~ Featured on Fanfiction Ambassador's "Video Games FF" Reading List 2025! ~ Featured on Fanfiction Ambassador's "LGBTQIAP+" Reading List 2025! *Highest Ranking*: #1 in ghiralink - 2021/01/02 #1 in Ocarina - 2022/01/10 ~~~~ [WARNING] This book is still not immaculately edited.

A lot of work needs to be done to rebuild Hyrule, and to convince others to help will take a lot of work from Link and Zelda. Having all his memories back, Link is plagued with thoughts and memories of the Champions, wishing he could go back in time and save them. He can't focus on the past too much though, because an incredible threat has woken up, and will certainly destroy Hyrule if nothing is done soon. Hyrule needs a hero, and that hero happens to be Link. Takes place after Breath of the Wild. The cover photo isn't mine! All character rights go to Nintendo, but the plot is mineee!
