Four people, apparently from vastly different walks of life, wake to find themselves in a cottage in the middle of a deep forest. They have been provided with food, clothing and water. They appear unharmed, and free to leave - the doors keeping them in are unlocked. The problem is, none of them have the first clue where they are, or how they got there. What soon becomes clear though, is that they are linked, by an event deep in their collective past.
As they are struggling to unravel the mystery of just what has happened to them and why, the scarecrows appear.

Blighted Memories
Amnesia was a funny thing. It strips you of all memories, both good and bad. But what it didn't take away from Link was his caring heart. He wasn't a man who had time to deal with or worry about things like memories anyway. All he cared about was doing what was right. But just because Link had no memories, or any interest to reclaim them, didn't mean they wouldn't return to haunt him. Ever since Link woke up, strange things have been happening around the land. Horrific creatures, not quite monster and not quite human, begin appearing at night to terrorize the denizens of Hyrule. Link, not one to simply let such evils do as they please, decides to investigate into the matter as he travels across the land to find a way to destroy these creatures. It should've been just another job for him, just a problem the people needed solved, just another errand for the incarnation of Hylia's hero. But as he investigates, he is haunted by his past. Link's mind cannot remember what happened. But his heart did. He still feels what he lost, what he failed to protect, even after one hundred years. That's what draws something toward Link, the very same evil that created the creatures he faces. It follows and watches him from the shadows, taunting him, waiting for him to remember the past he's forgotten, waiting for the pain to resurface, waiting for the time he can no longer carry the weight of it all. As he journeys on his quest to defeat Ganon and save Princess Zelda, Link must learn to contend with another ancient evil that taints the land, all while facing the ghosts of his forgotten past. But how long can a disgraced hero last in the face of his failures? Cover art designed by @DaybreakVision on Twitter. Some themes may be upsetting to some readers. Viewer discretion advised.

The Absent Blue of Your Gaze (Linked Universe)
In search of a new danger that threatened to assault Time's Hyrule, the chain walked into the deep Lost Woods, guided by their leader who opened the path through the darkness. What they didn't expect, though, is that the danger might sometimes be closer than they think. It might be in the nearest tree, in the flower that stands alone at their feet, in the blade of grass that looks slightly suspicious. Who knows, it could even maybe -just maybe- be in the shape of their own footsteps. In the wind that lightly hits their faces. In the darkness of their own shadows. They don't know if it's standing right next to them. Or watching them in their sleep. Or talking to them using words that feel somehow in the wrong voice. It's hard to believe that it could even be staring directly at their eyes with the gaze that used to be blue.Complete
