Urbosa was many things, but even she could not halt the sands of fate. When a dying Hylian mother entrusts her infant son to her, begging on her last breath to raise him as her own, her Gerudo pride could not possibly deny her final request. Link, despite being a male, would be raised Gerudo. And Urbosa would make sure her son would be the strongest warrior of them all.

(We hit Linked Universe eventually, but the first bit is definitely just BotW.)

Not two decades later, a young man with strange origins finds his path uncertain, as he learns he is a reincarnation of that same hero. Now, he must be the real hero among all those who have fallen. Set in a version of Hyrule combining all elements from several mainline games. (Several characters and concepts belong to Nintendo). Also available on Ao3

《COMPLETE》 - Note: this series is under ongoing editing - Before the Calamity, there were no troubles to face, no hardships, and no sacrifices that had to made for the sake of Hyrule.

Link being his oblivious self, doesn't realize that the two girls are having feelings toward him. But once he does, how who will he choose?
